    In the works and letters of his later years, Wilkie Collins continually expressed his displeasure over copyright violations. Wilkie Collins and Copyright: Artistic Ownership in the Age of the Borderless Word by Sundeep Bisla asks whether that discontent might not also have affected the composition of Collins{8217}s major early works of the 1850s and 60s. Bisla{8217}s investigation into this question, surprisingly, does not find an uncomplicated author uncomplicatedly launched on a defense of what he believes to be rightfully his. Instead, Bisla finds an author locked in fierce negotiation with the theoretical underpinnings of his medium, the written word, underpinnings best delineated by the twentieth-century deconstructionist Jacques Derrida. Collins{8217}s discomfort with copyright violation comes to be in tension with his budding understanding of the paradoxical nature of the ?iterability? of the word, a nature presenting itself as a conflict between the settling and breaking manifestations of linguistic repetition. In his efforts at resolving this paradox, Collins adopts a mechanism of recursive self-reflexivity through which each story reflects upon itself to a more fundamental extent than had its predecessor. This self-reflexive exploration has significant consequences for the author{8217}s own iterability-menaced subjectivity, a striking example of which can be seen in the fact that the name being sought in Collins{8217}s last masterpiece, The Moonstone, will end up being ?MY OWN NAME? {8212} in other words, ?WILKIE COLLINS.?

    Eavesdropping in the Novel from Austen to Proust investigates human curiosity and its representation in eavesdropping scenes in nineteenth-century English and French novels. Ann Gaylin argues that eavesdropping dramatizes a primal human urge to know and offers a paradigm of narrative transmission and reception of information among characters, narrators and readers. Gaylin sheds light on the social and psychological effects of the nineteenth-century rise of information technology and accelerated flow of information, as manifested in the anxieties about - and delight in - displays of private life and its secrets. Analysing eavesdropping in Austen, Balzac, Collins, Dickens and Proust, Gaylin demonstrates the flexibility of the scene to produce narrative complication or resolution; to foreground questions of gender and narrative agency; to place the debates of privacy and publicity within the literal and metaphoric spaces of the nineteenth-century novel. This 2003 study will be of interest to scholars of nineteenth-century English and European literature I'm all ears: Pride and Prejudice, or the story behind the story -- Eavesdropping and the gentle art of Persuasion -- Household words: Balzac's and Dickens's domestic spaces -- The madwoman outside the attic: eavesdropping and narrative agency in The Woman in White -- La double entente: eavesdropping and identity in A la recherche du temps perdu -- Conclusion: covert listeners and secret agents
