Описание: Secrecy and Community in 21st-Century Fiction examines the relation between secrecy and community in a diverse and international range of contemporary fictional works in English. In its concern with what is called 'communities of secrecy', it is fundamentally indebted to the thought of Jacques Derrida, Jean-Luc Nancy and Maurice Blanchot, who have pointed to the fallacies and dangers of identitarian and exclusionary communities, arguing for forms of being-in-common characterized by non-belonging, singularity and otherness.
Also drawing on the work of J. Hillis Miller, Derek Attridge, Nicholas Royle, Matei Calinescu, Frank Kermode and George Simmel, among others, this volume analyses the centrality of secrets in the construction of literary form, narrative sequence and meaning, together with their foundational role in our private and interpersonal lives and the public and political realms. In doing so, it engages with the Derridean ethico-political value of secrecy and Derrida’s conception of literature as the exemplary site for the operation of the unconditional secret.

Описание: Les journaux d’ecrivains representent des cas de journaux personnels particuliers par le statut meme des diaristes qui les ont ecrits. Etudier ces journaux d’ecrivains pose plusieurs questions : tenir un journal ou pas ? Pour qui et pour quoi tenir un journal ? Les diaristes eux-memes, par leur pratique et leurs interrogations, soulignent combien le journal d’ecrivain releve d’une categorie generique litteraire propre. Dans la relation complexe entre diaristes et destinataires se redefinissent tout a la fois la notion de l’intimite et la fonction d’un journal d’ecrivain. Se pose enfin une question non moins complexe, qui se joue entre diaristes et editeurs : comment publier un journal d’ecrivain sans en trahir la teneur et la signification ? Cet ouvrage, qui rassemble des textes de chercheurs de plusieurs pays portant sur des journaux d’ecrivains francais et etrangers, du XVIIIe au XXe siecle, permet ainsi de faire l’etat des lieux de la critique actuelle sur le sujet.
Автор: Tugce Cankaya Simpson Название: Chivalric Tradition in 21st Century Fantasy Literature: Lacanian and Saidian Other ISBN: 1680530321 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781680530322 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 87780.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Modern fantasy is the generic revival of the chivalric romance. The quest motif, adventures to other worlds, imaginary characters, exotic settings, battles between light and darkness, circular plot patterns, and anachronism all highlight a substantial common point between these genres. The quest for “I,” or self, prepares the ground to analyze these texts from Lacanian and Saidian vantage points: Subjectivity (in Lacanian epistemology) and configuration of national markers (in Saidian frame) display themselves clearly in Sir Perceval of Galles (on a subjective level) and Guy of Warwick (on a social level) as chivalric romances and Belgariad (on both levels) as a modern fantasy sequel by David Eddings. Thus, in this book, the intertextuality between these two genres is laid bare within a variety of theoretical perspectives to construct a theoretical framework in an attempt to explain a generic affinity between these two genres. This serves as the book's main focus, the quest for “I”dentity, and Lacanian Psychoanalysis and Saidian Postcolonial theory with touches on Kristevan abject and Cohen’s Monster Theory, all of which serve to understand the other/Other in a quest for “I”dentity as a recurrent theme both in chivalric romances and the modern fantasy genre.
Автор: Astrid Bracke Название: Climate Crisis and the 21st-Century British Novel ISBN: 1350107484 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350107489 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 35890.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The challenge of rapid climate change is forcing us to rethink traditional attitudes to nature. This book is the first study to chart these changing attitudes in 21st-century British fiction. Climate Crisis and the 21st-Century British Novel examines twelve works that reflect growing cultural awareness of climate crisis and participate in the reshaping of the stories that surround it. Central to this renegotiation are four narratives: environmental collapse, pastoral, urban and polar. Bringing ecocriticism into dialogue with narratology and a new body of contemporary writing, Astrid Bracke explores a wide range of texts, from Zadie Smith’s NW through Sarah Hall's The Carhullan Army and David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas to the work of a new generation of novelists such as Melissa Harrison and Ross Raisin. As the book shows, post-millennial fictions provide the imaginative space in which to rethink the stories we tell about ourselves and the natural world in a time of crisis.

Описание: Editors Jean-Michel Ganteau and Susana Onega) have assembled a volume which addresses the relationship between trauma and ethics, and moves one step further to engage with vulnerability studies in their relation to literature and literary form. It consists of an introduction and of twelve articles written by specialists from various European countries and includes an interview with US novelist Jayne Anne Philips, conducted by her translator into French, Marc Amfreville, addressing her latest novel, Quiet Dell, through the victimhood-vulnerability prism. The corpus of primary sources on which the volume is based draws on various literary backgrounds in English, from Britain to India, through the USA. The editors draw on material from the ethics of alterity, trauma studies and the ethics of vulnerability in line with the work of moral philosophers like Emmanuel Levinas, as well as with a more recent and challenging tradition of continental thinkers, virtually unknown so far in the English-speaking world, represented by Guillaume Le Blanc, Nathalie Maillard, and Corinne Pelluchon, among others. Yet another related line of thought followed in the volume is that represented by feminist critics like Catriona McKenzie, Wendy Rogers and Susan Dodds.
