Download or read book Flaubert Joyce and Beckett written by Hugh Kenner and published by Dalkey Archive Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An enlightening study of three writers, Flaubert, Joyce and Beckett: The Stoic Comedians begins with an explanation of the effect of the printing press on books. The "book as book" has been removed from the oral tradition by such features as prefaces, footnotes, and indexes. Books have become voiceless in some sense--they are to be read silently, not recited aloud. How this mechanical change affected the possibilities of fiction is Kenner's subject. Each of the three featured authors approached this situation in a unique, yet connected way: Flaubert as the "Comedian of the Enlightenment," categorizing man's intellectual follies; Joyce as the "Comedian of the Inventory," with his meticulously constructed lists; and Beckett as the "Comedian of the Impasse," eliminating facts and writing novels about a man alone writing.
Download or read book Flaubert Joyce y Beckett written by Kenner, Hugh and published by Fondo de Cultura Economica. This book was released on 2012-02-02 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: De formación matemática y científica, Blaise Pascal abandonó sus estudios para dedicarse a la filosofía y la teología después de una experiencia mística, en 1654. El "Discurso acerca de las pasiones del amor", ubicado poco antes de ese suceso, ya mostraba su búsqueda por razonar sobre las pasiones humanas: "El amor nos da más espíritu, el espíritu lo sustenta: hay que ser ágil para amar. Diariamente se nos agotan las maneras de gustar. Sin embargo, hay que gustar y lo logramos."Los textos breves que acompañan al ensayo inicial, "Acerca de la conversión del pecador", "Oración para pedirle a Dios el buen uso de las enfermedades" y "Tres discursos acerca de la condición de los grandes", permiten observar otras vetas del pensamiento surgido de la religiosidad del autor, fallecido prematuramente a los treinta y nueve años.

Download or read book Flaubert Beckett NDiaye written by Andrew Asibong and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-01-23 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gustave Flaubert, Samuel Beckett and Marie NDiaye can be considered as visionaries of a peculiarly radical form of failure, their protagonists and texts alike sliding inexorably into unmanageable states of paradox, incompletion and disintegration. What are the implications of these authors’ experiments in splitting and negativity, experiments which seem to indulge the most cynical aspects of nihilism, whilst at the same time grappling with the very foundations of politicized and psychic truth? In this unusual edited volume of comparative analyses, Andrew Asibong and Aude Campmas bring together ten provocative and illuminating essays, each of which approaches the various ‘failures’ of the bizarre trio of canonical francophone writers along three principal axes of investigation: the aesthetic, the emotional and the political.

Download or read book Beckett and French Theory written by Eric Migernier and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2006 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samuel Beckett's works have spawned a great variety of critical - sometimes contradictory - interpretations, most recently ones stemming from postmodern theories of literature. In keeping with this trend, this book probes the relationship between Beckett's fiction and the work of a number of contemporary French thinkers, such as Maurice Blanchot and Gilles Deleuze, which demonstrates how concepts such as «the thought of the outside» and «the simulacrum» also generate Beckett's transgressive narrative. Beckett and French Theory provides valuable new knowledge and understanding to teachers and students of both Beckett's fiction and recent French critical theory.
Download or read book James Joyce and the Nineteenth Century French Novel written by Finn Fordham and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2011-03 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays of this volume show how Joyce’s work engaged with the many upheavals and revolutions within the French nineteenth-century novel and its contexts. They delve into the complexities of this engagement, tracing its twists and turns, and reemerge with fascinating and rich discoveries. The contributors explore Joyce’s explicit and implicit responses to Alexandre Dumas, Honoré de Balzac, Victor Hugo and Émile Zola and, of course, Flaubert. Drawing from the wide range of Joyce’s writings - Dubliners, A Portrait., Ulysses, Finnegans Wake, and his life, letters, and essays - they resituate Joyce’s relation to France, the novel, and the nineteenth century.
Download or read book The Irish Beckett written by John P. Harrington and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 1991-05-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breaking with a powerful tradition among scholars that insists that Beckett’s Irishness is no more than an accident of birth, Harrington provides compelling evidence to the ways in which many of Beckett’s best-known texts are deeply involved in Irish issues and situations. Providing new readings of such works as More Pricks Than Kicks, Murphy, Watt, Mercier and Camier, Waiting for Godot, and Endgame, Harrington provides an understanding of Beckett’s work in its representation of Ireland, of Irish history, and of Irish literary traditions.

Download or read book The Dramatic Journey of Eugene O Neill and Samuel Beckett written by Jaya Kapoor and published by Partridge Publishing. This book was released on 2020-06-25 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The moderns found these two writers to be one of them, and the post moderns said their essence was post-modern. They were found to have deep existential core and humanism was the defining spirit of their works. When a writer writes with deep empathy for the human situation, the work is freed from the traps of ideologies and techniques. It reaches out to people beyond time and space. Truth is complex and individual in manifestation but simple and universal in essence. This simplicity is the most difficult to achieve and most prized achievement of an artist. This simplicity of the communication is what the journey of O’Neill and Beckett has been all about. Their journey is marked by unsparing effort to give a universal metaphor to an immensely subjective experience. The voices of two of the greatest dramatists come together to tell not just what drama has been all about in the 20th Century, but also what it is in our own day. It looks not just into the plots or characters to understand their works but also how they communicated so much more through the way they visualized the technical aspects and theatrical impact of their plays.
