Download or read book Color Space and Creativity written by Jack Stewart and published by Associated University Presse. This book was released on 2008 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study of Virginia Woolf, D. H. Lawrence, Joyce Cary, Lawrence Durrell, and A. S. Byatt focuses on color, space, and creativity in selected novels, stories, travel texts, essays, and letters." "Stewart highlights a nexus of color, space, and creativity that takes on ontological dimensions in the writing of five writers who are linked by stylistic affinities and correspondingly calibrated sensibilities. They engage writing with painting and their acts of attention converge in a zone where color, space, and creativity sustain the imaginative life-world of their characters. This study should lead to ongoing reflections on the roles of color and space in modernist and postmodernist texts and direct attention to the subtle and pervasive interactions of literature with painting."--BOOK JACKET.
