MODERNISM, NARRATIVE pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
In Modernism, Narrative and Humanism, Paul Sheehan attempts to redefine modernist narrative for the twenty-first century. For Sheehan modernism presents a major form of critique of the fundamental presumptions of humanism. By pairing key modernist writers with philosophical critics of the humanist tradition, he shows how modernists sought to discover humanism’s inhuman potential.Heexamines the development of narrative during the modernist period and sets it against, among others, the nineteenth-century philosophical
writings of Schopenhauer, Darwin and Nietzsche. Focusing on the
major novels and poetics of Conrad, Lawrence,Woolf and Beckett,
Sheehan investigates these writers’ mistrust of humanist orthodoxy
and their consequent transformations and disfigurations of narrative
order.He reveals the crucial link between the modernist novel’s
narrative concerns and its philosophical orientation in a book that
will be of compelling interest to scholars of modernism and literary
theory.
PAUL SHEEHAN is a Sydney-based writer and researcher. He studied at Birkbeck College, London, and has published articles on Dickens and Beckett.
