Jesús Benito, Ana Ma Manzanas, and Begoña Simal
In their united assault on the concept and practice of realism in the 1970s and after, postmodern writers and poststructuralist critics made fabulation and/or metafiction the narrative tools which, via the deconstruction of their own narrative order, might subvert the institutional order of literature as well as of society since both could be metaphorically collapsed into a single system of repression: the order of mimesis. To that attack we owe …

Surviving in the Particular? Uni(versali)ty and Multiplicity in the Novels of Richard Powers
Although some of the ‘masters’ of postmodernism are still producing ‘postmodern’ narratives (e.g. Robert Coover with his recent Lucky Pierre), contemporary American fiction has largely moved ‘back’ into realism’s territory of the everyday that the postmodernists had been so determined to abandon.

Uniting a divided nation
In the context of the Iraq war, ‘Anti-Americanism’ has become a European fact but also an instrument of political controversy, part of a simplifying argument of either/or. The essay probes into the various implications of European ‘Anti- Americanism’ and then concentrates on German cultural history where the influence of American culture (‘Americanization’), after both wars, was fought by cultural nationalists on the right as well as on the left …

I There seems to be an increasing gap between the traditional concept of the university as a place of independent intellectual pursuit and the demand that it respond more adequately and more immediately to the needs of its social, economic, and technological environment. 1 It is most of all the structural unwieldiness of our universities that has called their usefulness into doubt. Might not the much-needed chemists, engineers, and computer speci…
The Creation of Normalcy
Étudiant les variations d'une esthétique démocratique, Heinz Ickstadt montre comment la question de la construction de la normalité, tissant le descriptif et le prescriptif, hante la littérature américaine et éclaire ses ambiguïtés. Évoquant d'abord le projet réaliste de William Dean Howells et sa pensée du Commun, ancrée à la fois dans V expérience et dans la norme, il explore ensuite une tendance de la fiction contemporaine à valoriser l'anorma…

Howells’ Idea of the Reading Public
La conception du public littéraire chez Howells. Le réalisme de Howells est intimement lié à l'idée d'une communauté de lecteurs démocratiques et avertis, public qui, en fait, reste à former. Pris dans les contradictions des hypothèses universalistes du 18e siècle, Howells s'accommoda de l'idée que le marché était un instrument pour éclairer le public mais, en même temps, il le détesta parce qu'il tenait les lecteurs dans un état de passivité et …
