Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edition enrichie (Préface, notes, bibliographie et chronologie) Lorsqu’en 1850 il publie David Copperfield, Charles Dickens offre à ses lecteurs le premier roman qu’il ait écrit à la première personne, et, derrière l’histoire de son jeune héros, c’est aussi parfois la sienne qu’on peut lire. Mais ce que dessinent surtout les douloureuses premières années, le dur apprentissage de la vie dans une fabrique, puis la fuite et l’errance picaresque du jeune Copperfield, c’est un roman de formation où le personnage se fait son propre biographe. Il arrive alors qu’on ne sache pas si le réel évoqué est celui que l’enfant vécut au présent ou celui que l’adulte revisite au passé. Car, d’épreuve en épreuve, c’est une nouvelle image de soi que le narrateur peu à peu reconstruit, avant de devenir lui-même, à la fin du livre, un écrivain semblable à celui qui, dès le début, a pris la plume pour raconter sa vie – et nous offrir ce qui est encore aujourd’hui le plus grand roman anglais du xixe siècle. Edition de Laurent Bury et Jean-Pierre Naugrette.

Download or read book Proust and the Victorians written by Robert Fraser and published by Springer. This book was released on 1994-05-13 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1899 Marcel Proust read a translation of Ruskin's The Lamp of Memory in a Belgian magazine. Fourteen years later he back-projected the experience onto the narrator of Du cote de chez Swann who describes himself as a boy reading the self-same piece in the garden at Combray. In between lay a period of intermittent enthusiasm for Victorian writing: a period which saw the refurbishment of Proust's method and a fundamental rethinking of his views. Much of this reassessment was achieved in relation to English writers whom Proust adopted, absorbed and then as often as not discarded. The end result was to enable him to pass from one aesthetic to another. It is the contention of this book that the clue to this process can be found not only in Proust's evolving views on memory and time but also in his progression through a three-fold typology of form: from 'mimetic form' (art-imitating-the-real) through 'mnemonic form' (art-imitating-memory) to 'abstract form' (art-imitating-itself). The progress from one to another is illustrated through Proust's reactions to Carlyle, Darwin, Emerson, Ruskin, George Eliot, Hardy, Stevenson, Wells and Wilde. There is also a chapter on the connection in Proust's mind between literary and art criticism and his delayed response to the Ruskin-Whistler trial of 1878. A final chapter relates these matters to the current debate as to the parallel between the nineteenth century fin-de-siecle and our own.

Download or read book The Strange Comrade Balabanoff written by Maria Lafont and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-04-13 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in 1878 to a wealthy Ukrainian family, Angelica Balabanoff broke ties with her parents and left for Europe to become one of the leading female socialists of the early 20th century. Just five feet tall, plump and plain, she was rumored to be a lover of Mussolini, Lenin, and Trotsky. Returning to Russia at the beginning of the October Revolution, she became one of the few women to occupy high-ranking positions within the all-male Bolshevik government, later fleeing Russia in disagreement with Lenin's politics. She was accused by European and American secret services of promoting communist propaganda, and by the Soviets of disloyalty. She lived in small dormitory-like rooms, moving on average every two years with her two suitcases of important documents. She died in Rome at the age of 96, concluding her 65-year career by supporting Giuseppe Saragat in his quest to become president of Italy. During her nomadic life, state and police agencies in the countries she visited compiled documents on her. The author draws on this extensive, scattered archive in this first biography of Balabanoff.

Download or read book Education and the Boarding School Novel written by Filipe Delfim Santos and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-28 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this book, the author contributes to genre theory, space theory (suggesting allotopia for heterotopia, or describing hypertopia versus hypotopia), the study of authorship, the formation and education novels, and develops such concepts as Leidensgeschichte or the Telemachus complex. Based on Portuguese writer José Régio’s novel A Drop of Blood (1945), he studies the cultural meaning of the immersion paradigm in education and some historical and anthropological features of boarding schools and other institutions of confinement. This book is of interest to those studying the philosophy of education, masculinist nineteenth-century educational theories—in particular about masculine friendships—the place of the Bildungsroman in genre theory, Foucault’s ideas on ‘other spaces’, and the implications of narcissism, melancholia, and nostalgia for the trauma narrative."
