Book The Flowers of Tarbes  Or  Terror in Literature

Download or read book The Flowers of Tarbes Or Terror in Literature written by Jean Paulhan and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paulhan's seminal work in English for the first time Les Fleurs de Tarbes, ou la terreur dans les lettres, first published as a single volume in 1941, was considered by Jean Paulhan to be the furthest-reaching expression of his thinking about literature and language. It is now recognized as a landmark text in the history of twentieth century literary criticism and in the emergence of contemporary literary theory. This is the first time it has been translated into English. The playful tone and quirky, casual style of Paulhan's writing mask a theoretical intent and seriousness of purpose that are extraordinarily prescient. In The Flowers of Tarbes Paulhan probes the relationship between language, meaning, context, intention and action with unremitting tenacity, and in so doing produces a major treatise on the nature of the literary act, and a meditation on what we might now call the responsibility or ethical imperative of literature itself.

Download or read book Risking who One is written by Susan Rubin Suleiman and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Risking Who One Is shows how the process of self-recognition, even self-construction, in the reading of contemporary work can lead to larger considerations about culture and society - to the dimensions of historical awareness and collective action. The book gives us a new way of looking at issues that are as personal as they are prevalent in the writing, the criticism, and the life of our times.
