Download or read book Andrej Belyj s Petersburg James Joyce s Ulysses and the Symbolist Movement written by Alexander Woronzoff and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1982 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an analysis of Joyce's and Belyj's appropriation and adaptation of symbolist poetic devices in the novels Ulysses and Petersburg. Of central importance is Joyce's use of epiphany and Belyj's use of the aesthetic symbol. They are units of meaning that create countless associations by expanding to ever widening areas of significance and then returning upon themselves. To achieve a structure based on epiphany and symbol, Joyce and Belyj make use of devices such as the creation of correspondences through metaphorical analogy, interior monologue and stream of consciousness, synesthesia, musical effects and refrain, leitmotif, linguistic and technical virtuosity, and an allusive construction.

Download or read book Hofmannsthal and Symbolism written by Thomas A. Kovach and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1985 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study attempts a revaluation of Hugo von Hofmannsthal's position in relation to twentieth-century literary Modernism through an examination of the poet's complex relationship to French Symbolism. The actual impact of Symbolism on his poetic technique is demonstrated more clearly than has been done previously, while at the same time it is argued that there was no wholesale rejection of Symbolism during and after the «Chandos crisis, » as is generally assumed. Rather, the poet's continued adherence to Symbolist aesthetics, which is apparent in both the essays and the poetic works of his maturity, goes hand in hand with his critique of those aspects of Symbolism associated with the larger movement of Aestheticism.

Similarly, an entry on an individual novel discusses the importance of that novel not only form, analyzing the particular innovations that novel has introduced and the ways in which it has influenced the subsequent course of the genre. A wide range of topic entries explore the history, criticism, theory, production, dissemination and reception of the novel. A very important component of the Encyclopedia of the Novel is its long surveys of development of the novel in various regions of the world.

Download or read book Carnival Culture and the Soviet Modernist Novel written by Craig Brandist and published by Springer. This book was released on 1997-01-12 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the work of five Soviet prose writers - Olesha, Platonov, Kharms, Bulgakov and Vaginov - in the light of the carnivalesque elements of Russian popular culture. It shows that while Bakhtin's account of carnival culture sheds considerable light on the work of these writers, they need to be considered with reference to both the concrete forms of Russian and Soviet popular culture and the changing institutional framework of Soviet society in the 1920s and 1930s.
Download or read book Textual Exile written by Sante Matteo and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1985 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An author writes with a certain type of reader in mind. Determining the identity of this «implicit reader» serves to reveal a text's strategies and meaning. Laurence Sterne's Sentimental Journey and Ugo Foscolo's linguistically faithful Italian translation of it have different implicit readers, and hence radically different meanings. Unlike Sterne, who could be relatively confident of the competence of his English readers, Foscolo, because of the political, cultural, and linguistic fragmentation of the Italy of his time, addressed a reader of uncertain status, both in his translation and in his own earlier novel, Le ultime lettere di Jacopo Ortis. These works are characterized by dialogical tensions that revolve around the postulation of different implicit readers. Therefore, a reader-oriented analysis is particularly illuminating in deciphering them. Conversely, the works themselves constitute an account and an illumination of the importance of the problem of readership in literary criticism.
