    Preliminary Material -- Introduction -- Theorizations of Melancholia -- Trauma Studies in The Medico-Psychiatric Field -- Theorizations of Cultural Trauma in Relation to Cultural Melancholia -- Cultural Narratives Activated by the 9/11 Attacks -- White Middle Class Melancholia in Jay Mcinerney’s Fiction -- Postmodern Melancholia and the Fantasy of the Tuché in Don Delillo’s Pre-9/11 Novels -- Falling Man’s Escape into Hyperreality -- Conclusion -- Index. In Cultural Melancholia: US Trauma Discourses Before and After 9/11 , Christina Cavedon frames her examination of 9/11 fiction, especially Jay McInerney’s The Good Life and Don DeLillo’s Falling Man , with a thorough discussion of what US reactions to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 disclose about American culture. Offering a comparative reading of pre- and post-9/11 literary, public, and academic discourses, she deconstructs the still commonly held belief that cultural repercussions of the attacks primarily testify to a cultural trauma in the wake of the collectively witnessed media event. She innovatively re-interprets discourses to be symptomatic of a malaise which had afflicted American culture already prior to 9/11 and can best be approached with melancholia as an analytical concept

    "The surprising claim of this book is that dwelling on loss is not necessarily depressing. Instead, Jonathan Flatley argues, embracing melancholy can be a road back to contact with others and can lead people to productively remap their relationship to the world around them. Flatley demonstrates that a seemingly disparate set of modernist writers and thinkers showed how aesthetic activity can give us the means to comprehend and change our relation to loss."--Jacket Modernism and melancholia -- Affective mapping -- Reading into Henry James : allegories of the will to know in The turn of the screw -- "What a mourning": propaganda and loss in W.E.B. Du Bois's Souls of Black folk -- Andrei Platonov's revolutionary melancholia: friendship and Toska in Chevengur.
