The Exchanges of The Good Story
This contribution to the Special Issue on epistolary form in the work of J. M. Coetzee examines the form of the “exchanges” in The Good Story (2015). These exchanges extend Coetzee’s longstanding interest in the methods and limitations of psychoanalysis. They stand as an iteration of self-reflexive meditation on his writing’s imbrication in these methods and limitations. At the same time, the exchanges strive to enact methods—the sympathetic, the…
Maps of Empire
Maps of Empire offers a series of deft close readings that highlight how mid-twentieth century writers draw on multiple traditions and histories to make explicit a world that is international, multilingual, and interconnected. Wanberg offers meticulously researched reception histories of literature authored during and after national liberation movements. These reception histories show how critics and reviewers have tended to deploy “imperial cart…

An art of hunger
This article examines the centrality of hunger and food in Zakes Mda’s Ways of Dying, The Heart of Redness, and The Whale Caller. While Mda’s work has been the subject of incisive readings of the politics of development in contemporary South Africa, attention to his treatment of hunger, specifically, helps to clarify the centrality of gender to Mda’s critical re-envisioning of development policies pursued by late and postapartheid governments
J.M. Coetzee and the Limits of Cosmopolitanism
Drawing on postcolonial and gender studies, as well as affect theory, the book interrogates cosmopolitan philosophies. Through analysis of J.M. Coetzee's later fiction, Hallemeier invites the re-imagi
Anne Brontë's Shameful Agnes Grey
For much of the twentieth century , literary criticism tended to be relatively dismissive of Anne Brontë's novels. While recent scholarship has argued for the complexity of gender and class dynamics in Agnes Grey (1847), there is little consensus as to what, precisely, those dynamics are. Elizabeth Hollis Berry suggests that Agnes “takes charge of her life” (58), and Maria H. Frawley argues that her narrative is a “significant statement of self-e…
Secular study and suffering
Prominent literary philosophers as diverse as Martha Nussbaum, Kwame Anthony Appiah, and Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak have envisioned a role for the humanities in fostering more ethical relationships on a global scale. Through a close reading of JM Coetzee's fifth “lesson” in Elizabeth Costello: eight lessons, this paper interrogates the limits of the humanities for promoting secular salvation. “Lesson five: the humanities in Africa”, I argue, trou…
