Infinite Intertextuality: Encountering Alterity in Ian McEwan’s Saturday -- 7. Infinite Perspective: John Banville’s The Infinities -- 8. Coda: And Beyond? -- Works Cited -- Index This study traces the connection of infinity and Levinasian ethics in 21st-century fiction. It tackles the paradox of how infinity can be (re-)presented in the finite space between the covers of a book and finds an answer that combines conceptual metaphor theory with concepts from classical narratology and beyond, such as mise en abyme, textual circularity, intertextuality or omniscient narration. It argues that texts with such structures may be conceptualised as infinite via Lakoff and Núñez’s Basic Metaphor of Infinity. The catachrestic transfer of infinity from structure to text means that the texts themselves are understood to be infinite. Taking its cue from the central role of the infinite in Emmanuel Levinas’s ethics, the function of such ‘fictions of infinity’ turns out to be ethical: infinite textuality disrupts reading patterns and calls into question the reader’s spontaneity to interpret. This hypothesis is put to the test in detailed readings of four 21st-century novels, David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas, Jeanette Winterson’s The Stone Gods, Ian McEwan’s Saturday and John Banville’s The Infinities. This book thus combines ethical criticism with structural aesthetics to uncover ethical potential in fiction

While Plato recommended expelling poets from the ideal society, W. H. Auden famously declared that poetry makes nothing happen. The 19 contributions to the present book avoid such polarized views and, responding in different ways to the “ethical turn” in narrative theory, explore the varied ways in which narratives encourage readers to ponder matters of right and wrong. All work from the premise that the analysis of narrative ethics needs to be linked to a sensitivity to esthetic (narrative) form. The ethical issues are accordingly located on different levels. Some are clearly presented as thematic concerns within the text(s) considered, while others emerge through (or are generated by) the presentation of character and event by means of particular narrative techniques. The objects of analysis include such well-known or canonical texts as Biblical Old Testament stories, Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn , J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings , Vladimir Nabokov’s Lolita , Jonathan Littell’s The Kindly Ones , Ann Radcliffe’s The Italian and Matthew Lewis’s The Monk . Others concentrate on less-well-known texts written in languages other than English. There are also contributions that investigate theoretical issues in relation to a range of different examples

Rigby -- Conclusion Chaucer: Literature, History and Ideology /Stephen H. Rigby -- Bibliography /Stephen H. Rigby -- Index /Stephen H. Rigby. The Knight's Tale is one of the most controversial of all the Canterbury Tales. Does Chaucer portray Theseus, the duke of Athens whose actions dominate the tale, as an ideal ruler, one who is noble, wise and chivalrous, or does the duke's behaviour reveal him to be immoral, self-seeking and tyrannical? This book ( now in a corrected second printing ) assesses the duke's conduct and thought in terms of the ideals set out in medieval mirrors for princes, particularly in Giles of Rome's De Regimine Principum . It argues that, when judged by the standards of these works, Theseus can be seen as a model prince in terms of his self-government ('ethics'), his rule of his household ('economics'), his governance of his realm ('politics) and his cosmography and philosophy

    "Give the Devil His Due": Judge Holden's Design in Blood Meridian -- "Antic Clay"?: The Competing Ethical Appeals of Blood Meridian -- "A Knowing Deep in the Bone": Cowboy Stoicism and Tragic Heroism in All the Pretty Horses -- "Like Some Supplicant to the Darkness Over Them All": The Good of John Grady Cole in Cities of the Plain -- "Nothing is Crueler Than a Coward": No Country for Old Men and The Counselor as Tragic Fables of the Contemporary Southwest -- Coda: The Good of Story in The Road. This book argues that McCarthy's works convey a profound moral vision and explores how McCarthy uses intertextuality, moral philosophy, and questions of genre to advance that vision. Russell M. Hillier focuses upon the ways in which McCarthy's fiction is in ceaseless conversation with literary and philosophical tradition, examining McCarthy's investment in influential thinkers from Marcus Aurelius to Hannah Arendt, and poets, playwrights, and novelists from Dante and Shakespeare to Fyodor Dostoevsky and Antonio Machado. Hillier shows how McCarthy's fiction grapples with abiding moral and metaphysical issues: the nature and problem of evil; the idea of God or the transcendent; the credibility of heroism in the modern age; the question of moral choice and action; the possibility of faith, hope, love, and goodness; the meaning and limits of civilization; and the definition of what it is to be human. This study should appeal alike to readers, teachers, and scholars of Cormac McCarthy

In Signposts of Self-Realization , Xinmin Liu offers an ontological study of education and development of the individual self through the prisms of ethical progress and social evolution in the context of modern Chinese literature and film. Did self-realization in the Chinese modern follow the law of Social Darwinism: the biggest ego always won out? Is individualism always self-regarding, never other-regarding? How did the Greater I evolve out of the Lesser I socially and ethically? Confronting these questions, the author navigates through the terrains of paraphrastic translation, Buddhist nonself, lyrical epiphany, redemptive memory and ethnic orality to map out an alternative path for the growth of a modern Chinese self

    "This book is about the ways in which certain medieval literary texts use death, dying and the dead to think about problems relating to life - problems political, social, ethical, philosophical or existential. More specifically, it is about the dynamic interface between life and death and about figures caught at that interface, hence 'living death'. There are ghosts and revenants who, although dead, actively speak and will, disturbing the properly living. And there are those who while alive exist under a deathly shadow that forecloses their engagement with life and isolates them from their fellows. Vampires, ghosts and zombies are currently fashionable in popular culture; in literary criticism, tropes of the interstitial, the intermediary or the 'third' are in vogue. What I have attempted to do in this book is to use some of the latter - in particular, Lacan's notion of l'entre-deux-morts - to think through some medieval examples of phenomena related to the former: dead who return to place demands on the living; living who foresee, organize or desire their own deaths"-- "Medieval literature contains many figures caught at the interface between life and death - the dead return to place demands on the living, while the living foresee, organize or desire their own deaths. Jane Gilbert's original study examines the ways in which certain medieval literary texts, both English and French, use these 'living dead' to think about existential, ethical and political issues. In doing so, she shows powerful connections between works otherwise seen as quite disparate, including Chaucer's Book of the Duchess and Legend of Good Women, the Chanson de Roland and the poems of Francois Villon. Written for researchers and advanced students of medieval French and English literature, this book provides original, provocative interpretations of canonical medieval texts in the light of influential modern theories, especially Lacanian psychoanalysis, presented in an accessible and lively way"-- Cover -- Half-title -- Series-title -- Title -- Copyright -- Contents -- Acknowledgements -- Note on translations -- Introduction: living death -- Life and death -- Entre-deux-morts -- Death and the work of art -- Lacanian ethics and politics -- Antigone -- Antigone's drive -- Antigone's desire -- A medieval antigone? -- The structure of this book -- Chapter 1 Roland and the second death -- Death drive and life cycle -- Roland between two deaths: the assonanced chanson de roland -- Assonance and rhyme -- The sublime object of ideology -- Chapter 2 The knight as Thing: courtly love in the non-cyclic prose Lancelot -- The non-cyclic prose lancelot -- 'Courtly love and its discontents -- Lancelot and guinevere: lacanian courtly lovers? -- Courtly love ethics -- Galehot -- The knight as thing -- Lamour chevaleresque en anamorphose -- Chapter 3 The ubi sunt topos in Middle French: sad stories of the death of kings -- Imagining sovereignty -- 'Je suis mort -- Dead man talking: villon's 'ballades du temps jadis -- The 'ballade des dames -- The 'ballade des seigneurs -- The 'ballade en vieil langage fran231;ois -- Chapter 4 Ceci nest pas une marguerite: anamorphosis in Pearl -- The narrative -- Anamorphosis -- Pearl as anamorphosis -- Looking awry: heaven versus earth -- Heavenly reason: heaven plus earth -- Pearls and daisies -- Arts of mourning -- Marguerites -- Desiring marguerites -- Full circle? -- Chapter 5 Becoming woman in Chaucer: on ne nat pas femme, on le devient en mourant -- Double obsequies -- Book of the duchess -- Legend of good women -- The revenant -- Repetition -- Conclusion: living dead or dead-in-life? -- Notes -- Introduction: living death -- 1.

    'Shakespeare and Moral Agency' presents a collection of new essays by literary scholars and philosophers considering character and action in Shakespeare's plays as heuristic models for the exploration of some salient problems in the field of moral inquiry. Together they offer a unified presentation of an emerging orientation in Shakespeare studies, drawing on recent work in ethics, philosophy of mind and analytic aesthetics to construct a powerful framework for the critical analysis of Shakespeare's works

In Signposts of Self-Realization , Xinmin Liu offers an ontological study of education and development of the individual self through the prisms of ethical progress and social evolution in the context of modern Chinese literature and film. Did self-realization in the Chinese modern follow the law of Social Darwinism: the biggest ego always won out? Is individualism always self-regarding, never other-regarding? How did the Greater I evolve out of the Lesser I socially and ethically? Confronting these questions, the author navigates through the terrains of paraphrastic translation, Buddhist nonself, lyrical epiphany, redemptive memory and ethnic orality to map out an alternative path for the growth of a modern Chinese self

    From ninjō to the ninjōbon : toward the licentious novel -- Questioning the idealist novel : virtue and desire in Nansō Satomi hakkenden -- Translating love in the early Meiji novel : ninjōbon and yomihon in the age of enlightenment -- Historicizing literary reform : shōsetsu shinzui, translation, and the civilizational politics of ninjō -- The novel's failure : Shōyō and the aporia of realism and idealism -- Ninjō and the late Meiji novel : recontextualizing Sōseki's literary project. "Nineteenth-century Japanese literary discourse and narrative developed a striking preoccupation with ninjō--literally 'human emotion,' but often used in reference to amorous feeling and erotic desire. For many writers and critics, fiction's capacity to foster both licentiousness and didactic values stood out as a crucial source of ambivalence. Simultaneously capable of inspiring exemplary behavior and a dangerous force transgressing social norms, ninjō became a focal point for debates about the role of the novel and a key motor propelling the dynamics of narrative plots. In Licentious Fictions, Daniel Poch investigates the significance of ninjō in defining the literary modernity of nineteenth-century Japan. He explores how cultural anxieties about the power of literature in mediating emotions and desire shaped Japanese narrative from the late Edo through the Meiji period. Poch argues that the Meiji novel, instead of superseding earlier discourses and narrative practices surrounding ninjō, complicated them by integrating them into the new cultural and literary signifiers brought about by Western translation. He offers close readings of a broad array of late Edo- and Meiji-period narrative and critical sources, examining how they shed light on the great intensification of the concern surrounding ninjō. In addition to proposing a new theoretical outlook on the significance of emotion, Licentious Fictions challenges the divide between early modern and modern Japanese literary studies by conceptualizing the nineteenth century as a continuous literary-historical space"--

"This innovative critical study reinterprets Ludwig Wittgenstein's philosophy for the study of modernist and contemporary literature and brings Wittgenstein into literary conversations around problems of difficulty, ethical instruction, and the yearning for transformation. Central to Karen Zumhagen-Yekple͹'s book are her critical readings of key modernist texts by Franz Kafka, Virginia Woolf, and James Joyce. Throughout, Zumhagen-Yekplé brings to bear an interpretive framework that she derives from Wittgenstein's gnomic "Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus" (first published in English in 1922, the "annus mirabilis" of modernism), which she treats not as a theory of logic or metaphysics but as a complex mock-theoretical puzzle. The book's final chapter turns to recent fiction by J. M. Coetzee, a living author conscious of his debts both to Wittgenstein and his modernist literary precursors. This book will interest students of literary modernism, Wittgenstein, and the interconnections between fiction and ordinary language philosophy"--

    "Die vorliegenden Untersuchungen beantworten die Frage, wann sich einem fiktionalen Text eine "Moral" zuschreiben lässt. Unter "Moral" wird dabei die Aufforderung verstanden, fiktionale moralische Urteile für wahr zu halten. Solche Aufforderungen werden im vorliegenden Band aus moralischen Urteilssätzen abgeleitet. Diese werden als Suchbefehle verstanden. Und es wird erörtert wie die Befolgung dieser Befehle nach Massgabe utilitarischer Zweckmässigkeitsüberlengungen zum Befund der "Moral" fiktionaler Texte führen kann. Es soll gezeigt werden, dass entsprechende Befunde es nicht nur erlauben, fiktionale Texte zu identifizieren. Als Anleitung zur Gewinnung solcher Befunde wollen die hier unternommenen Bemühungen auch zur rationalen Diskussion der moralischen Beurteilung fiktionaler Werke beitragen." -- Back cover

    Part 1. The Point of Reading -- Justice and Literature; Part 2. Bonds of Justice -- Pity and the Moral Role of Sadness -- Fallen Angels; Coda; Appendix: Compassion and Pity. "Literature and justice are entwined in many other ways. Ancient Greek tragedies are underpinned by discontinuities between human nomos and a more binding dike. Comedies often depend upon justice: the braggart being exposed and shamed, the overly-witty being humbled, the self-assured being rattled. Love plots, too, mobilize justice - as when a true lover suddenly shines, causing a false one to evaporate. The list goes on. When literature gives voice to the marginalized, when it destabilizes power-structures, when it creates imaginary alternatives, when it denaturalizes norms or exposes oppression, the experiences that go into its writing, reading, and interpreting are framed by justice. Conversely, when literature cooperates with the limiting of others, when it belittles oppression, deepens stigmatization, offers entertaining escapism when more committed agency is called for, its shortcomings are failures in relation to justice"--

    Many writers have been accused of betraying their loved ones by turning them into fictional characters. In this book, the author examines the ethics of writing such stories. He argues that while fiction has long appealed to readers with its narratives of private life, contemporary autobiographical fiction channels a widespread ambivalence about the value of telling all in a confessional age - an age in which fiction has an unprecedented power to leave people feeling libeled or exposed when they recognize themselves in it. Observing that the interests of authors and their loved ones in such cases are often less divergent than they appear, the author assesses strategies by which both parties might use fiction not to hurt each other but to revise and revitalize intimacy. Discussing authors such as Philip Roth, Alice Munro, A. S. Byatt, and Hanif Kureishi, the author questions whether people should always require exclusivity of each other with regard to the stories they tell about private life. Instead, authors and their intimates might jointly embrace fiction's playful, transgressive qualities, even while reexamining the significance of that fiction's intimations.

'Throw up for good': Gagging, Compulsion and a Comedy of Ethics in the Trilogy / Laura Salisbury (Birkbeck College) -- Index. "At first glance, Samuel Beckett's writing where scenes of violence and cruelty often provide the occasion for an unremittingly bleak comedy would seem to offer the reader few examples of ethical conduct. However, following the recent "ethical turn" in critical theory, there has been growing interest in the ethicality of Beckett's work. Following Alain Badiou's highly influential claim for Beckett as essentially an ethical thinker, it is time to ask: What is the relation between Beckett's work and the ethical? Is Beckett's work profoundly ethical in its implications, as both humanist and deconstructionist readings have insisted in their different ways? Or does Beckett's work in some way call into question the entire notion of the ethical? This provocative collection of essays seeks to map out this emerging debate in Beckett criticism. It will be a landmark contribution to an exciting new field, not only in Beckett Studies, but in literary studies and critical theory more broadly."--Bloomsbury Publishing
