Download or read book The Proustian Quest written by William Carter and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1992-02-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An ambitious study, the fruit of sustained work over many years. Professor Carter's book deploys a stunning knowledge of Proust and places Carter among the first line of Proust scholars in the country." —Roger Shattuck,Boston University The Proustian Quest is the first full-length study that explores the influence of social change on Proust's vision. In Remembrance of Things Past, Proust describes how the machines of transportation and communication transformed fashion, social mores, time-space perception, and the understanding of the laws of nature. Concentrating on the motif of speed, Carter establishes the centrality of the modern world to the novel's main themes and produces a far- reaching synthesis that demonstrates the work's profound structural unity.
Download or read book The Ends of Mourning written by Alessia Ricciardi and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ends of Mourning explores from an interdisciplinary perspective the contemporary crisis of mourning. In an age skeptical of history and memory, we relate to the past only as a spectacle, a product to be consumed in the cultural marketplace. The book charts the emergence and development of the problem of mourning in the writings of Freud, Proust, and Freud's successor Lacan. Freud's idea of "sorrow work" and Proust's concept of involuntary memory defined the terms of the classic modernist account of mourning in the fields of psychoanalysis and literature. Yet their insistence on the egotistical aspects of loss to the exclusion of all ethical and political considerations threatens the dissolution of the question of mourning.

Download or read book Je il and vous written by Ian McCall and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1998 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study traces the development in Proust's portrayal of his narrator, major protagonist, and narratee from his early abandoned novel Jean Santeuil to A la recherche. It adopts a thematic approach and examines many of the published drafts from Proust's Cahiers, as well as the implications of some of the expansions he made to A la recherche in the later years of writing his novel. Focusing on the author's change from third-person narration in Jean Santeuil to first-person narration in A la recherche, the study gives new insights into Proust's compositional methods and sheds light on how his attitude toward his narrator, protagonist, and narratee evolved throughout his career as a writer.
