Download or read book Travels of a Genre written by Mary N. Layoun and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the modern Western novel is linked to the rise of a literate bourgeoisie with particular social values and narrative expectations, to what extent can that history of the novel be anticipated in non-Western contexts? In this bold, insightful work Mary Layoun investigates the development of literary practice in the Greek, Arabic, and Japanese cultures, which initially considered the novel a foreign genre, a cultural accoutrement of "Western" influence. Offering a textual and contextual analysis of six novels representing early twentieth-century and contemporary literary fiction in these cultures, Layoun illuminates the networks of power in which genre migration and its interpretations have been implicated. She also examines the social and cultural practice of constructing and maintaining narratives, not only within books but outside of them as well. In each of the three cultural traditions, the literary debates surrounding the adoption and adaption of the modern novel focus on problematic formulations of the "modern" versus the "traditional," the "Western" and "foreign" versus the "indigenous," and notions of the modern bourgeois subject versus the precapitalist or precolonial subject. Layoun textually situates and analyzes these formulations in the early twentieth-century novels of Alexandros Papadiamandis (Greece), Yahya Haqqi (Egypt), and Natsume Soseki (Japan) and in the contemporary novels of Dimitris Hatzis (Greece), Ghassan Kanafani (Palestine), and Oe Kenzaburo (Japan).

Download or read book The Modernist Novel written by Stephen Kern and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-06-23 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading scholar Stephen Kern offers a probing analysis of the modernist novel, encompassing American, British and European works. Organized thematically, the book offers a comprehensive analysis of the stunningly original formal innovations in novels by Conrad, Joyce, Woolf, Proust, Gide, Faulkner, Dos Passos, Kafka, Musil and others. Kern contextualizes and explains how formal innovations captured the dynamic history of the period, reconstructed as ten master narratives. He also draws briefly on poetry and painting of the first half of the twentieth century. The Modernist Novel is set to become a fundamental source for discussions of the genre and a useful introduction to the subject for students and scholars of modernism and twentieth-century literature.
Download or read book Narrative Reliability Racial Conflicts and Ideology in the Modern Novel written by Marta Puxan-Oliva and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does racial ideology contribute to the exploration of narrative voice? How does narrative (un)reliability help in the production and critique of racial ideologies? Through a refreshing comparative analysis of well-established novels by Joseph Conrad, William Faulkner, James Weldon Johnson, Albert Camus and Alejo Carpentier, this book explores the racial politics of literary form. Narrative Reliability, Racial Conflicts and Ideology in the Modern Novel contributes to the emergent attention in literary studies to the interrelation of form and politics, which has been underexplored in narrative theory and comparative racial studies. Bridging cultural, postcolonial, racial studies and narratology, this book brings context specificity and awareness to the production of ideological, ambivalent narrative texts that, through technical innovation in narrative reliability, deeply engage with extremely violent episodes of colonial origin in the United Kingdom, the United States, Algeria, and the French and Spanish Caribbean. In this manner, the book reformulates and expands the problem of narrative reliability and highlights the key uses and production of racial discourses so as to reveal the participation of experimental novels in early and mid-20th century racial conflicts, which function as test case to display a broad, new area of study in cultural and political narrative theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A MORE than commonly interesting addition to the rapidly growing company of books around and about the novel is Mr. Follett's study of "The Modern Novel." One fault in these books as a class is a certain over-ingenuity, a restless desire to "score" for the novel or for the critic's special theory. That fault was not absent from Mr. and Mrs. Follett's recent volume of "appreciations and estimates." In "Some Modern Novelists" the coauthors showed themselves sensitive to aspects of story-telling, both human and technical, which neither academic nor popular criticism has made much of. But they also showed themselves rather in bondage to a preconceived theory of the modern novel. Their view of it as interpreter of the modern "sense of continuity -call it 'living in the whole, ' the social conscience, or simply the will to brotherhood" resulted in the assembling of strange bedfellows in their critical caravanserai. The sub-title of the present book, with its "purpose and meaning of fiction," has a slightly menacing air for the gun-shy. But Mr. Follett honestly intends to serve as disinterested guide and commentator upon a journey of importance to modern readers. What if he carries his own torch and compass, and even a weapon of private dogma bulging visibly somewhere about his person? It is plain that he means to use them solely for our benefit and protection. And he gives us fair enough warning that if we are only out for an airing in the region of the novel, we may not join his party. For a fiction without purpose or meaning would be a fiction without interest for this observer. He looks upon the novel as a form of art vitally related to modern life. This relation he defines with caution: "The universality of our interest in fiction does not prove that fiction has any inherent right to the space it occupies in our libraries or our lives; but it does prove that we have given fiction a sort of pragmatic claim on us by giving so much of ourselves to it. . The question is not, What must be our attitude towards the art of fiction'! It is rather, What must fiction have done to us before it becomes deserving of our consideration as an art?..." -The Nation, Vol. 108
