  • Author : Elizabeth Podnieks
  • Publisher : McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
  • Release : 2000-01-26
  • ISBN : 0773568247
  • Pages : 420 pages

Download or read book Daily Modernism written by Elizabeth Podnieks and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2000-01-26 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Redrawing established boundaries between genres, Podnieks builds a broad critical and theoretical range on which she maps the diary as an aesthetic work, showing how diaries inscribe the aesthetics of literary modernisms. Drawing on feminist theory, literary history, biography, and personal anecdotes, she argues that the diary is an especially subversive space for women writers. Podnieks details how Virginia Woolf, Antonia White, Elizabeth Smart, and Anaïs Nin wrote their diaries under the pretence that they were private, while always intending them to be published. She travelled extensively to examine the original diary manuscripts and offers unique first-hand descriptions of the manuscripts that underscore the artistic intentions of their authors. Daily Modernism contributes to the ongoing feminist revision of literary history and, in its disruption of traditional concepts of "major" and "minor" literary forms, paves the way for a much needed reconsideration of the diary as a valid literary achievement.

Book A Genealogy of Manners

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jorge Arditi
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 1998-12
  • ISBN : 9780226025834
  • Pages : 334 pages

Download or read book A Genealogy of Manners written by Jorge Arditi and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1998-12 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remarkable for its scope and erudition, Jorge Arditi's new study offers a fascinating history of mores from the High Middle Ages to the Enlightenment. Drawing on the pioneering ideas of Norbert Elias, Michel Foucault, and Pierre Bourdieu, Arditi examines the relationship between power and social practices and traces how power changes over time. Analyzing courtesy manuals and etiquette books from the thirteenth to the eighteenth century, Arditi shows how the dominant classes of a society were able to create a system of social relations and put it into operation. The result was an infrastructure in which these classes could successfully exert power. He explores how the ecclesiastical authorities of the Middle Ages, the monarchies from the fifteenth through the seventeenth century, and the aristocracies during the early stages of modernity all forged their own codes of manners within the confines of another, dominant order. Arditi goes on to describe how each of these different groups, through the sustained deployment of their own forms of relating with one another, gradually moved into a position of dominance.
