Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pastiche and Prejudice Writing of Lamennais, Renan says: "Il crea avec des reminiscences de la Bible et du langage ecclesiastique cette maniere harmonieuse et grandiose qui realise le phenomene unique dans l'histoire litteraire d'un pastiche de genie." Renan was nothing if not fastidious, and "unique" is a hard word, for which I should like to substitute the milder "rare." Pastiches "of genius" are rare because genius is rare in any kind, and more than ever rare in that kind wherein the writer deliberately forgoes his own natural, instinctive form of expression for an alien form. But even fairly plausible pastiches are rare, for the simple reason that though, with taste and application, and above all an anxious care for style, you may succeed in mimicking the literary form of another author or another age, it is impossible for you to reproduce their spirit - since no two human beings in this world are identical. Perhaps the easiest of all kinds is the theatrical "imitation," because all that is to be imitated is voice, tone, gesture - an actor's words not being his own - yet I have never seen one that got beyond parody. The sense of an audience is not fine enough to appreciate exact imitation; it demands exaggeration, caricature.

Download or read book Reading Revelation as Pastiche written by Michelle Fletcher and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-18 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars have often read the book of Revelation in a way that attempts to ascertain which Old Testament book it most resembles. Instead, we should read it as a combined and imitative text which actively engages the audience through signalling to multiple texts and multiple textual experiences: in short, it is an act of pastiche. Fletcher analyses the methods used to approach Revelation's relationship with Old Testament texts and shows that, although there is literature on Revelation's imitative and multi-vocal nature, these aspects of the text have not yet been explored in sufficient depth. Fletcher's analysis also incorporates an examination of Greco-Roman imitation and combination before providing a better way to understand the nature of the book of Revelation, as pastiche. Fletcher builds her case on four comparative case studies and uses a test case to ascertain how completely they fit with this assessment. These insights are then used to clarify how reading Revelation as imitative and combined pastiche can challenge previous scholarly assumptions, transforming the way we approach the text.

Book excerpt: A standout among the most adored and appreciated English books, Pride and Prejudice was written as a mainstream diversion. At the same time, the aesthetic power of Jane Austen (1775-1817) changed this story of country sentiment into a witty parody of English provincial life that is currently viewed as one of the essential novels of the 19th century. In a remote Hertfordshire town, distant from the great city streets of George III's England, a country squire of humble stature must offer his five young girls in marriage. At the center of this difficult undertaking are his obstinate second daughter Elizabeth Bennet and her refined suitor Fitzwilliam Darcy - both of whose pride must be humbled and prejudices broken before the novel can arrive at its amazing finish.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progress and Prejudice, Vol. 1 of 3 So long as she could remember, Lady Meadowes had been confined to a suite of rooms on the ground floor of her old-fashioned home: so long as she could remember, because the delicacy of constitution which rendered her mother so close a prisoner, dated from the hour of her birth. But though a recluse, that kind mother was by no means a gloomy one. Incapable of physical exertion, she was fully equal to the management of their small household; and all that could be accomplished by pen and ink, by care ful computation and careful regulation, was done to perfect the economy of a moderate fortune, in connex ion with an honourable name and a residence of an cient repute in the county.

Download or read book Performing Jane written by Sarah Glosson and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2020-06-10 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jane Austen has resonated with readers across generations like no other writer. More than two hundred years after the publication of her most celebrated novel, Pride and Prejudice, people around the world continue to honor “dear Jane.” In Performing Jane, Sarah Glosson explores this vibrant fandom, examining a long history of Austen fans engaging with her work, from wearing hand-sewn bonnets and period-appropriate corsets to creating spirited fanfiction and comical gifsets. Sophisticated and engaging, this study demonstrates that Austen fans of today have a great deal in common with those who loved the English novelist long before the term “fan” came into use. Performing Jane analyzes three ways fans engage with Austen and her work: collecting material related to the writer, whether in physical scrapbooks or on social-media platforms; creating and consuming imitative works, including fanfiction and modernized adaptations such as The Lizzie Bennet Diaries; and making pilgrimages to Steventon, Hampshire, Chawton Cottage, and even to annual meetings of Jane Austen societies. Key to Glosson’s exploration of Austen fans is the notion that all of these activities, whether occurring in private or in public, are fundamentally performative. And in counterbalance to studies that center on fans with a tendency to transform and disrupt the original text, this study provides much-needed understanding of a fandom that predominantly reaffirms Austen’s works. Because Austen’s writing has bridged the realms of both literary and popular culture, this fandom serves as an excellent case study to understand the ways in which we draw distinctions between fandom and other forms of intensive engagement and, more importantly, to appreciate how fluid those distinctions can be. Performing Jane embraces a holistic view of the long history of Austen fandom, relying on archival research, literary and visual analyses, and ethnographic study. This groundbreaking book not only demonstrates the ways in which fan practices, today and in the past, are performative, but also provides fresh perspectives into fandom and contributes to our understanding of the ways readers engage with literature.
