L'imaginaire Mélancolique de Samuel Beckett, de Murphy À Comment C'est
Author: Yann Mével
Publisher: Rodopi
ISBN: 9042024569
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : fr
Pages : 434
Book Description
La mélancolie porte en elle l'héritage d'une très longue histoire, qui aura traversé de multiples champs de la culture: médecine de l'âme et du corps, arts et littérature, philosophie, religion... L'imaginaire de Samuel Beckett, son esthétique aussi, n'ont eu de cesse de se confronter à toutes ces facettes de la mélancolie, de se jouer d'elles, de les réinventer. Comment, pour le génie mélancolique, mieux cerner le mal qu'en l'abordant de manière détournée, par le biais de ceux qui avant lui le rencontrèrent ou tentèrent de percer son obscurité - tels Démocrite, Dürer, Robert Burton ? A travers ces miroirs, et bien d'autres encore, la mélancolie beckettienne se réfléchit, met en scène son théâtre intérieur, cherche à s'arracher à une emprise mortifère, tente d'apercevoir son image propre - scrute la terre sans perdre de vue l'horizon.

Crossing the Mangrove
Author: Maryse Conde
Publisher: Anchor
ISBN: 0307787702
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
In this beautifully crafted, Rashomon-like novel, Maryse Conde has written a gripping story imbued with all the nuances and traditions of Caribbean culture. Francis Sancher--a handsome outsider, loved by some and reviled by others--is found dead, face down in the mud on a path outside Riviere au Sel, a small village in Guadeloupe. None of the villagers are particularly surprised, since Sancher, a secretive and melancholy man, had often predicted an unnatural death for himself. As the villagers come to pay their respects they each--either in a speech to the mourners, or in an internal monologue--reveal another piece of the mystery behind Sancher's life and death. Like pieces of an elaborate puzzle, their memories interlock to create a rich and intriguing portrait of a man and a community. In the lush and vivid prose for which she has become famous, Conde has constructed a Guadeloupean wake for Francis Sancher. Retaining the full color and vibrance of Conde's homeland, Crossing the Mangrove pays homage to Guadeloupe in both subject and structure.

Beckett's Dantes
Author: Daniela Caselli
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 1847796303
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Beckett's Dantes: Intertextuality in the Fiction and Criticism is the first study in English on the literary relation between Beckett and Dante. It is an innovative reading of Samuel Beckett and Dante's works and a critical engagement with contemporary theories of intertextuality. It is an informative intertextual reading of Beckett's work, detecting previously unknown quotations, allusions to, and parodies of Dante in Beckett's fiction and criticism. The volume interprets Dante in the original Italian (as it appears in Beckett), translating into English all Italian quotations. It benefits from a multilingual approach based on Beckett's published works in English and French, and on manuscripts (which use English, French, German and Italian). Through a close reading of Beckett's fiction and criticism, the book will argue that Dante is both assumed as an external source of literary and cultural authority in Beckett's work, and also participates in Beckett's texts' sceptical undermining of authority. Moreover, the book demonstrates that the many references to various 'Dantes' produce 'Mr Beckett' as the figure of the author responsible for such a remarkably interconnected oeuvre. The book is aimed at the scholarly communities interested in literatures in English, literary and critical theory, comparative literature and theory, French literature and theory and Italian studies. Its jargon-free style will also attract third-year or advanced undergraduate students, and postgraduate students, as well as those readers interested in the unusual relationship between one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century and the medieval author who stands for the very idea of the Western canon.
