Abstract

At the beginning of the 21st century, there is still no generally accepted comprehensive definition of the lyric or differentiated modern toolkit for its analysis. The reception of poetry is largely characterised either by an empathetic identification of critics with the lyric persona or by exclusive interest in formal patterning. The present volume seeks to remedy this deficit. All the contributors 'theorise' the lyric to overcome the impasse of an impressionistic and narrowly formalistic critical debate on the genre. Their papers focus on a variety of different questions: the problem of establishing a framework for definition and classification; the search for dynamic and potent critical approaches; investigations of poetry's cultural performance and its fundamental relevance for the construction of group cohesion. The essays collected in this volume offer a consciously polyphonic range of theories and interpretations, suggesting to the reader a variety of theoretical frameworks and practical illustrations of how a discussion of poetry may be firmly grounded in modern literary theory.

Abstract

Wat is literatuur? Wat moeten we verstaan onder ?fictie?? Hoe belangrijk is het om te weten wat een schrijver bedoelt met zijn of haar teksten? En hoe vrij is een lezer om te interpreteren? Hoe doe je dat, overigens, interpreteren? Welke instrumenten bestaan er om verhalen te analyseren? En hoe pak je een gedicht aan? In Leeskwesties staan vragen centraal die bij de studie van literaire teksten onvermijdelijk aan de orde komen. Het boek maakt duidelijk dat we op die vragen verschillende antwoorden kunnen geven, al was het maar omdat bij elk van onze leeskwesties verschillende perspectieven mogelijk zijn. Dit werk bevat voorbeeldfragmenten uit de rijke geschiedenis van de westerse literatuur. Het wil de lezer warm maken voor wat de essentie van goede literatuur is: een uitnodiging tot lezen en interpreteren, een oproep tot het gebruiken van de verbeelding. Daarmee is Leeskwesties geschikt voor iedereen met een hart voor literatuur. Bron: achterflap

Abstract

Aprovechar las enseñanzas de la Historia, recurrir al pasado remoto o reciente para mostrar en sus héroes, recreados por el teatro, su dimensión arquetípica y modélica, tales son los propósitos de la dramatización de la materia histórica durante el Siglo de Oro español. La Historia no sólo sirvió de mero marco temporal para ubicar la acción dramática de las piezas en un contexto preciso. Las variaciones, anacronismos evidentes o sincronismos implícitos, a partir dde las fuentes manejadas debe...

Abstract

Mediante un análisis de las representaciones humorísticas de la justicia ateniense en la comedia antigua, este libro se ocupa de relevar y analizar los modos en que el derecho es revelado, imitado, privatizado, suspendido, enseñado o proyectado en el corpus aristofánico. A través de una verdadera poética cómica de la justicia, las distintas estrategias empleadas por Aristófanes en las primeras seis obras de su producción literaria se canalizan hacia la explotación estética del nómos como un recurso primordial de la composición cómica. Sobre la escena, la destreza del dramaturgo se vale de los mecanismos de hiperbolización, distorsión y transcontextualización para refractar la excesiva litigiosidad ateniense y burlarse de la centralidad del universo forense frente a sus espectadores. Este volumen, que constituye el primer estudio acerca de los cruces entre la dimensión normativa y la comediografía política griega, procura ilustrar la importancia del género como fuente para una mejor comprensión del orden legal de la Atenas de fines del siglo V a.C. y, al mismo tiempo, rescatar la utilidad de lo jurídico para una mejor interpretación de las piezas conservadas a partir de un examen de los dispositivos regulatorios en juego.

Abstract

La complessità delle connessioni fra umano e non-umano ha trovato nella tradizione poetica statunitense sviluppi estetici originali per ampiezza e profondità. Al contempo, volendo articolare nel testo letterario il silenzio della natura e le sue conseguenze, l’indagine estetica si è sempre più caricata di valenze assiologiche ed epistemologiche, in un crescente intrecciarsi di estetica ed etica. In queste pagine, tre delle maggiori poetesse del Novecento americano aiutano ad illuminare proprio questo spazio di riflessione, ancora ampiamente inesplorato dalla critica. La lettura di Denise Levertov, Mary Oliver e Louise Glück rivela una tensione relazionale il cui fulcro immaginativo ed etico è qui rintracciato nel dialogo muto ma costitutivo fra io lirico e natura. Poesia dopo poesia fiorisce l’impegno poetico a tradurre per il lettore quel tacito conversare che intesse il rapporto fra soggetto umano e mondo naturale e che contiene e mantiene le polarità costitutive di un’interazione in apparenza impossibile, silenziosa eppure sensibile, differita eppure presente, ineffabile eppure reale. Questa lirica esalta e potenzia il carattere relazionale e perfino dialogico dell’esperienza. L’espressione poetica si configura, allora, come un tentativo di con-versare, di costruire insieme all’altro, natura e lettore, la poesia

Abstract

Scholars of Russian culture have always paid close attention to texts and their authors, but they have often forgotten about the readers. These volumes illuminate encounters between the Russians and their favorite texts, a centuries-long and continent-spanning “love story” that shaped the way people think, feel, and communicate. The fruit of thirty-one specialists’ research, Reading Russia represents the first attempt to systematically depict the evolution of reading in Russia from the eighteenth century to the present day. The second volume of Reading Russia considers the evolution of reading during the long nineteenth century (1800-1917), particularly in relation to the emergence of new narrative and current affairs publications: novels, on the one hand, and daily newspapers, weekly magazines and thick journals, on the other. The volume examines how economic and social transformations, technological progress and the development of the publishing industry taking place in Russia gradually led to a significant expansion of the reading public. At the same time, in part due to the influence of new literature reading policies in schools, there was a greater cultural standardisation of Russian society, which was partially opposed by new forms of poetic reading.

Abstract

How does a literary text get to have literary form, and what is the relation between literary form and linguistic form? This theoretical study of linguistic structure in literature focuses on verse and narrative from a linguistic perspective. Nigel Fabb provides a simple and realistic linguistic explanation of poetic form in English from 1500-1900, drawing on the English and American verse and oral narrative tradition, as well as contemporary criticism. In recent years literary theory has paid relatively little attention to form; this book argues that form is interesting. Fabb offers a new linguistic approach to how metre and rhythm work in poetry, based on pragmatic theory and provides a pragmatic explanation of formal ambiguity and indeterminacy and their aesthetic effects. He also uses linguistics to examine the experience of poetry. Language and Literary Structure will be welcomed by students and researchers in linguistics, literary theory and stylistics.
