The Routledge companion to experimental literature
What is experimental literature? How has experimentation affected the course of literary history, and how is it shaping literary expression today? Literary experiment has always been diverse and challenging, but never more so than in our age of digital media and social networking, when the very category of the literary is coming under intense pressure. How will literature reconfigure itself in the future? The Routledge Companion to Experimental L…
Det unaturlige i fortællende poesi. To radikale eksempler
THE UNNATURALNESS OF NARRATIVE POETRY | New cognitive theory (e.g. Monica Fludernik) argues that we naturalize texts by narrativizing them. Although there are no ultimately “unnatural” narratives on this account, this article argues that there are certainly artificial ones. The article focuses especially on narrative poetry in which the artificial order of poetry spaces languageand denaturalizes it. It is the underlying hypothesis that artifice c…

The Edinburgh Companion to Twentieth-Century Literatures in English
An imaginatively constructed new literary history of the twentieth centuryThis companion with a difference sets a controversial new agenda for literary-historical analysis. Far from the usual forced march through the decades, genres and national literatures, this reference work for the new century cuts across familiar categories, focusing instead on literary 'hot spots': Freud's Vienna and Conrad's Congo in 1899, Chicago and London in 1912, the S…

Postmodernist Fiction
In this trenchant and lively study Brian McHale undertakes to construct a version of postmodernist fiction which encompasses forms as wide-ranging as North American metafiction, Latin American magic realism, the French New New Novel, concrete prose and science fiction. Considering a variety of theoretical approaches including those of Ingarden, Eco, Dolezel, Pavel, and Hrushovski, McHale shows that the common denominator is postmodernist fiction'…

Brit-Pop, or, Bringing It All Back Home
I understand the "pocket epic" to be one of the solutions to the problem of the long poem in the twentieth century. It is a distinctively British alternative to the various solutions embraced by North American modernists and postmodernists, including the lyric sequence, the serial poem, and the poem coterminous with the poet's life. 1 The wild-card in that statement is, of course, the term "British." That term's function, here as elsewhere, is to…
Poetry as Prosthesis
When, in 1944, William Carlos Williams defined a poem as "a small (or large) machine made of words," he had in mind as a model for poetry the precision machines of speed and power celebrated by other modernist writers and visual artists. But this was not the only machine model current in the modernist era, for on the margins of mainstream modernism were"alternative" machines, machines of reproduction and simulation-writing-machines, imaging-machi…
How (Not) to Read Postmodernist Long Poems
John Ashbery ranks among the exemplary postmodernist poets, and his long poem of the mid-sixties, "The Skaters," is a strong candidate for the title of exemplary postmodernist long poem. Unlike the more obviously disjunctive poems of Ashbery's Tennis Court Oath period, "The Skaters" often appears to make sense locally, inviting the reader to expect to make global sense of the poem. Instead, one encounters an intractable flux of verbal "found obje…

Fictional Narrative, Factual Narrative
If words have meaning (or even multiple meanings), then narratology-whether in its formal aspect, as the study of narrative discourse, or its thematic aspect, as the analysis of the sequences of events and actions related by this discourse-ought by rights to concern itself with stories of all kinds, fictional and otherwise. It is evident, however, that the two branches of narratology have until now devoted their attention almost exclusively to th…

Postmodernist Lyric and the Ontology of Poetry
Over every poem which looks like a poem is a sign which reads: This road does not go through to action: fictitious. The wit here is John Crowe Ransom's (1938:131), but the concept is a commonplace of poetics, traceable in the Anglo-American tradition at least as far back as Sir Philip Sidney-and Sidney, we know, only relayed what was already a commonplace of Continental poetics. The world of the poem is separate from the real world of experience,…

Modernist Reading, Post-Modern Text
A screaming comes across the sky. It has happened before, but there is nothing to compare it to now. It is too late. The Evacuation still proceeds, but it's all theater. There are no lights inside the cars. No light anywhere. Above him lift girders old as an iron queen, and glass somewhere far above that would let the light of day through. But it's night. He's afraid of the way the glass will fall soon it will be a spectacle: the fall of a crysta…

The Social Mission of English Criticism 1848-1932
This book examines the transformation of English literary criticism which underlies the study of English literature today, focusing on the social objectives of the pioneer critics and educationalists who established modern English studies. In particular, he discusses their view of literary culture as a civilizing influence capable of reconciling class conflict, and their concern for its preservation in the face of the new dangers of mass society:…
Tropic Crucible
In Form
Form must never be taken for granted, but must be created as the work itself is shaped: The writer works not from a priori ideas about what will happen and what form it will take, but in and through the text. Sukenick, one of our most original contemporary novelists, describes these essays as the comments of a fiction writer about writing, not those of a critic on what has been written. They are more or less reports on experiencethose of one enga…

Fourth Lecture. Universal Corporatism
The lecture I am about to deliver, on the initiative of the Asahi newspaper, falls within the sphere of the bicentennial celebrations of the French Revolution. And I would like to contribute in my own way, which is, no doubt, a little paradoxical or perverse, to these celebrations by recalling, following the lecture I delivered yesterday at Todai University, that the organizers of these ceremonies are none other than, in the France of 1989, the m…
