Book Madame Bovary  Routledge Revivals

Download or read book Madame Bovary Routledge Revivals written by Rosemary Lloyd and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Madame Bovary ranks among the world’s most famous and widely read novels, and has inspired numerous critical theories. First published in 1987, this study draws on both twentieth-century and traditional critical views to provide both students and scholars with a fresh analysis of the novel: its narrative techniques, social background, and underlying structures. By setting the novel in an historical context, and exploring the ways in which it offers a hinge between romanticism and realism, the book establishes a framework through which the reader can assess questions of narrative strategy, of symbolic patterning and most importantly, parody and pastiche. Throughout Madame Bovary, Rosemary Lloyd argues, a series of intertwining voices challenge assumptions about the nature of narrative and the relationship between reader and writer. This reissue will provoke and stimulate debate among students and lecturers in French and English literature, for whom Madame Bovary is a key text in the development of the novel.

Book Unspeakable Sentences  Routledge Revivals

Download or read book Unspeakable Sentences Routledge Revivals written by Ann Banfield and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1982, this title grew from a series of essays on various aspects of narrative style; the result is a finished product that melds literary theory with linguistic methodology. It is argued that, where linguistic theory intersects with literary theory, it is narrative that provides the crucial ‘experiment’ for deciding between a communication and a non-communication theory of language and, by extension, of literature. Chapters discuss such areas as subjectivity in direct and indirect speech, the absence of the narrator, and the development of narrative style. With a detailed introduction to the subject, this reissue will be of value to students of linguistics and literature with a particular interest in narrative style and linguistic theory.

Download or read book Irony in Film written by James MacDowell and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-09 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Irony in Film is the first book about ironic expression in this medium. We often feel the need to call films or aspects of them ironic; but what exactly does this mean? How do films create irony? Might certain features of the medium help or hinder its ironic potential? How can we know we are justified in dubbing any film or moment ironic? This book attempts to answer such questions, investigating in the process crucial and under-examined issues that irony raises for our understanding of narrative filmmaking. A much-debated subject in other disciplines, in film scholarship irony is habitually referred to but too seldom explored. Combining in-depth theorising with detailed close analysis, this pioneering study asks what ironic capacities films might possess, how film style may be used ironically, and what role intention should play in film interpretation. The proposed answers have significance for our understanding of not only ironic filmmaking, but the nature of expression in this medium.

  • Publisher : Cornell University Press
  • Release : 2018-03-15
  • ISBN : 1501720015
  • Pages : 220 pages

Download or read book Madame Bovary on Trial written by Dominick LaCapra and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1857, following the publication of Madame Bovary, Flaubert was charged with having committed an "outrage to public morality and religion." Dominick LaCapra, an intellectual historian with wide-ranging literary interests, here examines this remarkable trial. LaCapra draws on material from Flaubert’s correspondence, the work of literary critics, and Jean-Paul Sartre’s analysis of Flaubert. LaCapra maintains that Madame Bovary is at the intersection of the traditional and the modern novel, simultaneously invoking conventional expectations and subverting them.

Book Five for Freedom

Download or read book Five for Freedom written by Geoffrey Wagner and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-06 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1972 Five for Freedom is a candid study of five European fictional heroines as anticipatory of contemporary feminism: Madame de Merteuil of Choderlos de Laclos’ Les Liaisons dangereuses, Jane Eyre, Emma Bovary, Tess of the D’Urbervilles, and Tony Buddenbrook. Professor Wagner clearly believes that, in the first place, the role of women in the development of fiction has been underestimated, while the claims to originality of many recent female liberationists have been equally overestimated. This is a far-ranging, lightly-handled book with insights into both mode of fiction, as it developed and answered women’s demands, and into the role of some of its leading heroines; for Professor Wagner’s studies do not limit themselves strictly to the ‘five for freedom’ but foray into Balzac’s Cousine Bette, Catherine Earnshaw of Wuthering Heights, Anna Karenina, and Eca de Queiroz’s Portuguese Bovary in Cousin Bazilio. This brilliant little study is topical, readable, yet learned. It will be useful for scholars and researchers of literature, Women’s studies, and Gender studies.

Download or read book The Originality of Madame Bovary written by Alan William Raitt and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this study is to assess in what ways Madame Bovary constitutes a radically new departure in the history of the novel. After tracing the circuitous route by which Flaubert came to start work on Madame Bovary when he was almost thirty, the book analyses the innovatory features of the work, namely its subject-matter, its narrative techniques, its style and language, and its narratorial perspectives. The study then draws together what has been established and shows how everything in the novel is suffused with a very modern irony. Though it has long been recognised that Madame Bovary marks a turning point in the history of the novel, the time has come when it is opportune to define exactly in what ways this is so.
