Book The Ghost of Monsieur Scarron

Download or read book The Ghost of Monsieur Scarron written by Janet Lewis and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-15 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historical novel is the third and final book in American poet and fiction writer Janet Lewis’s Cases of Circumstantial Evidence series, based on legal case studies compiled in the nineteenth century. In The Ghost of Monsieur Scarron, Lewis returns to her beloved France, the setting of The Wife of Martin Guerre, her best-known novel and the first in the series. As Swallow Press executive editor Kevin Haworth relates in a new introduction, Monsieur Scarron shifts the reader into the center of Paris in 1694, during the turbulent reign of the Sun King, Louis XIV. The junction of this time and place gives Monsieur Scarron an intriguing political element not apparent in either The Wife of Martin Guerre or The Trial of Sören Qvist. The Ghost of Monsieur Scarron begins in a small bookbinder’s shop on a modest Paris street, but inexorably expands to encompass a tumultuous affair, growing social unrest, and the conflicts between a legal system based on oppressive order and a society about to undergo harsh changes. With its domestic drama set against a larger political and historical backdrop, Monsieur Scarron is considered by some critics and readers to be the most intricately layered and fully realized book of Lewis’s long career. Originally published in 1959, Monsieur Scarron has remained in print almost continuously ever since.

Book Scarron s Roman Comique

Download or read book Scarron s Roman Comique written by Joan E. DeJean and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1977 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although not a direct parody like his Virgile travesti, Scarron's Roman comique is nevertheless one of the works of seventeenth-cen- tury French prose fiction most conscious of literary tradition and most self-conscious with regard to its own narrative techniques. The role of the narrator, the functioning of rhetoric and the structure of the novel are all examined from the point of view of these notions, to show why the Roman comique may be termed a novelist's novel, a novel about novels and the paradox on which they are based - the making of credible fiction.

Book Menippean Elements in Paul Scarron s Roman Comique

Download or read book Menippean Elements in Paul Scarron s Roman Comique written by Barbara L. Merry and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1991 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work evaluates the influence of Menippean satire on the seventeenth-century French novel and specifically studies its role in the Roman comique. The analysis uncovers many links to Menippean satire. Among these: digression; an unreliable narrator; parody; doubling; double-voiced discourse, dialogism (in Bakhtin's terminology) and the oral nature of the tale told. While it may be impossible to prove that Scarron consciously imitated the Menippean writing of antiquity exemplified by the works of Varro, Seneca, Petronius, Lucian or Apuleius, or the Satyre Ménippée of 1594, Scarron manifestly participates in the displacement of interest toward anti-conventional, anti-novelistic and parodic strategies that later become a central element in the history of the novelistic genre.
