    "William Faulkner and Mortality is the first full-length study of mortality in William Faulkner's fiction. The book challenges earlier, influential scholarly considerations of death in Faulkner's work that claimed that writing was his authorial method of 'saying No to death'. Through close-readings of six key works-The Sound and the Fury, As I Lay Dying, "A Rose for Emily", Light in August, Absalom, Absalom!, and Go Down, Moses-this book examines how Faulkner's characters confront various experiences of human mortality, including grief, bereavement, mourning, and violence. The trauma and ambivalence caused by these experiences ultimately compels these characters to 'say Yes to death'. The book makes a clear distinction between Faulkner's quest for literary immortality through writing and the desire for death exhibited by the principal characters in the works analysed. William Faulkner and Mortality: A Fine Dead Sound offers a new paradigm for reading Faulkner's oeuvre, and adds an alternative voice to a debate within Faulkner scholarship long thought to have ended"--...

    Seitdem Beckett das alte Bild vom Leben als Sterben mit einem neuen endzeitlichen Pathos gefüllt hat, hat sich das Motiv der ‚condition humaine‘ im Angesicht des Todes in den großen Literaturen der Romania stark diversifiziert. Bombal, Camus, Ferreira, Bassani, Rulfo, Delibes, Bufalino, Saramago, Calvino, García Márquez, Fuentes, Le Clézio, Tabucchi und Bolaño sind nur einige der hier wichtigen Autoren. Die Vielfalt der Varianten, die vom sterbenden Caudillo über phantastische Jenseitsromane bis zu Kamel Daouds eigenwilliger «Korrektur» des ‚Étranger‘ reicht, ist ebenso erstaunlich wie der manchmal geradezu spielerisch-leichte Ton. Die Studie besteht aus einer Reihe selbstständiger, daher auch einzeln lesbarer Werkvergleiche anhand der Originaltexte. Damit auch Interessenten, die die eine oder andere dieser Sprachen nicht beherrschen, die Möglichkeit haben, der Darstellung zu folgen, sind alle fremdsprachigen Zitate zugleich ins Deutsche übersetzt.
