    Elements of Surprise opens with an novel but narrow focus: how a particular cognitive bias, the "curse of knowledge," underwrites stories that rely on what it calls "well-made surprise," as seen in (for example) classic detective fiction--that is, surprises in novels, films, television, and plays that set us up to be fooled in ways we find pleasing and satisfying. But from there, the book expands its reach. At its core, "cursed" thinking underlies almost everything people write, say, and think about both other people and our own pasts. The more information we have about something, and the more experience we have with it, the harder it is to step outside that experience. What unfolds is both a fresh approach to mental heuristics and biases and an ambitious work of cognitive literary criticism. Elements of Surprise provides a new and exciting way of thinking about the mechanics of narrative, explored through thoughtful readings of classic, popular, and obscure texts.--

    "This new study asks how stories affect the way we think about time and, in particular, how they condition thinking about the future. Focusing on surprise and the unforeseeable, the book argues that stories are mechanisms that reconcile what is taking place with what will have been. This relation between the present and the future perfect offers a grammatical formula quite different from our default notions of narrative as recollection or recapitulation. It promises new understandings of the reading process within the strange logic of a future that is already complete. It also points beyond that to some of the key temporal concepts of our epoch: prediction and unpredictability, uncertainty, the event, the untimely and the messianic. The argument is worked out in new readings of Sarah Waters' Fingersmith, Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go and Julian Barnes' The Sense of an Ending."--Publisher's website

    Frontmatter -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- List of Figures -- List of Tables -- Texts and Abbreviations -- Introduction -- 1. Verbal Surprise: Para Prosdokian Jokes -- 2. Thematic Surprise: Appropriating Myths -- 3. Theatrical Surprise -- 4. Brekekekex, Surprise! Surprise! -- Afterword -- Appendices -- Bibliography -- Index Locorum -- Index Nominum et Rerum The purpose of this book is to examine the variety, the mechanisms, and the poetological intention of the effect of surprise in Aristophanic comedy, addressing the phenomenon not as a self-evident or unselfconscious element of comedy as a genre, but as an elaborate system which characterises the style of the specific dramatist. More precisely, the book analyses Aristophanes’ most prominent verbal, thematic, and theatrical modes of surprise from a typological perspective, and interprets them as comprising the key area in which the playwright claims and demonstrates his artistic superiority over rival genres and individual poets. In line with this purpose, two parallel aims of the book are to provide an original commentary on the passages under examination, and to promote the study of modern performances – a practice which has so far been either restricted to Classical Reception or only theoretically acknowledged (if at all) by mainstream philological scholarship. This is a timely book on a topic of wide current interest across a range of interlocking disciplines: emotion studies, semiotics, narratology, information theory, and -most pertinently for this book- humour research

    "Liz Jensen, a British author of eight novels, is among today's most innovative writers. Her literary thrillers occupy the terrain between realism and science fiction. This first study of Jensen centers on the very diverse "otherworlds" she creates in each of her novels, which can consist of an indeterminate space of ontological instability, a zone in which real and unreal converge to destabilize the realist text, as in Egg Dancing (1995) and The Ninth Life of Louis Drax (2004). In other novels the otherworld relies on defamiliarization: thus in War Crimes for the Home (2002) the experience of war is transformed by being seen from a woman's perspective. In still other cases, the otherworld spans the novel's entire topos, as in The Paper Eater (2000), the full-blown utopia at the center of Jensen's oeuvre. Jensen's work approaches contemporary social issues such as religious fundamentalism, ecological disaster, and assisted procreation. Simultaneously, it displays a number of characteristics of erudite fiction, including self-reflexivity, inter- and intratextual reference, parody, pastiche, and burlesque. Notwithstanding the "popular" elements of Jensen's work, Helen E. Mundler's study adopts a rigorously academic approach to it, referencing canonical works but also more innovative texts, particularly by contemporary women writers, as points of comparison" -- Notes on abbreviations and gender-neutral language -- Introduction -- Egg dancing: paving the way for otherworlds in time and space -- Ark baby and the return to the nineteenth century -- Island life: the pure "ustopia" of the paper eater -- Liz Jensen's murder mysteries -- From family romance to the detective novel -- New rules, new otherworlds: Jensen's "third wave" -- Ecofiction, rapture fiction -- The uninvited: the most radically "other" world to date -- Conclusion

Der Auftaktband der neuen Reihe Poetik und Ästhetik des Staunens beschäftigt sich mit dem Staunen als einem Moment der Grenzerfahrung und Grenzziehung, der Neugier und Überwältigung, der Erkenntnis und Blindheit, aber auch als Anfang von Denken, Erkennen, Sehen und Dichten. Staunen indiziert eine (noch) nicht kategorisierbare Fremdheit und konstituiert damit eine Grenze des Verstehens und Wissens. Damit wird es zum Ausdruck einer semantischen Leere vor dem Fremden. Als Moment der verunsichernden Reflexion kann es so zum Stimulus eines Begehrens nach Grenzüberschreitung werden. Andererseits kann es Ausdruck eines Zustands sein, in dem sich ein radikal anderes, nicht mehr an Körper und Verstand gebundenes Wissen ereignet. In den interdisziplinären Beiträgen des Bandes wird Staunen, historisch und diskursiv je unterschiedlich akzentuiert, als Phänomen der Grenze reflektiert, das dann im Kunstdiskurs, von der Antike bis heute, zu einem Moment des lustvollen Verharrens auf den Grenzen der Wahrnehmung, des Wissens und der Erfahrung werden kann. Mit Beiträgen von Udo Friedrich, Jan Niklas Howe, Reinhard Möller, Anna Laura Puliafito, Stefan Matuschek, u.a

    Liz Jensen, a British author of eight novels, is among today's most innovative writers. Her literary thrillers occupy the terrain between realism and science fiction. This first study of Jensen centers on the very diverse "otherworlds" she creates in each of her novels, which can consist of an indeterminate space of ontological instability, a zone in which real and unreal converge to destabilize the realist text, as in Egg Dancing (1995) and The Ninth Life of Louis Drax (2004). In other novels the otherworld relies on defamiliarization: thus in War Crimes for the Home (2002) the experience of war is transformed by being seen from a woman's perspective. In still other cases, the otherworld spans the novel's entire topos, as in The Paper Eater (2000), the full-blown utopia at the center of Jensen's oeuvre.
    Jensen's work approaches contemporary social issues such as religious fundamentalism, ecological disaster, and assisted procreation. Simultaneously, itdisplays a number of characteristics of erudite fiction, including self-reflexivity, inter- and intratextual reference, parody, pastiche, and burlesque. Notwithstanding the "popular" elements of Jensen's work, Helen E. Mundler's study adopts a rigorously academic approach to it, referencing canonical works but also more innovative texts, particularly by contemporary women writers, as points of comparison.

    Helen E. Mundler is Senior Lecturer in English Studies at UPEC (Université Paris-Est Créteil) with a research affiliation at the Université Paris-X Nanterre-La Défense.

Thematic Surprise: Appropriating Myths -- 3. Theatrical Surprise -- 4. Brekekekex, Surprise! Surprise! -- Afterword -- Appendices -- Bibliography -- Index Locorum -- Index Nominum et Rerum The purpose of this book is to examine the variety, the mechanisms, and the poetological intention of the effect of surprise in Aristophanic comedy, addressing the phenomenon not as a self-evident or unselfconscious element of comedy as a genre, but as an elaborate system which characterises the style of the specific dramatist. More precisely, the book analyses Aristophanes’ most prominent verbal, thematic, and theatrical modes of surprise from a typological perspective, and interprets them as comprising the key area in which the playwright claims and demonstrates his artistic superiority over rival genres and individual poets. In line with this purpose, two parallel aims of the book are to provide an original commentary on the passages under examination, and to promote the study of modern performances – a practice which has so far been either restricted to Classical Reception or only theoretically acknowledged (if at all) by mainstream philological scholarship. This is a timely book on a topic of wide current interest across a range of interlocking disciplines: emotion studies, semiotics, narratology, information theory, and -most pertinently for this book- humour research

    Focusing on surprise, spontaneous eruption and the unforeseeable, The Unexpected argues that stories help us to reconcile what we expect with what we experience. Though narrative is often understood a recapitulation of past events, the book argues that the unexpected and the future anterior, a future that is already complete, are guiding ideas for new understandings of the reading process. It also points beyond that to some of the key temporal concepts of our epoch, of unpredictability, the event, the untimely and the messianic Introduction: What lies ahead -- Part 1: Surprise and the theory of narrative. A flow of unforeseeable novelty ; Narratological approaches to the unforeseeable. -- Part 2: The unpredictable and the future anterior. Prediction and the age of the unknowable ; What will have happened: writing and the future perfect ; The untimely and the messianic. -- Part 3 :Time flow and the process of reading. Narrative modality: Possibility, probability and the passage of time ; Temporal perspective: narrative futurity and the distribution of knowledge. -- Part 4: The unforeseeable in fictional form. Maximum peripeteia: reversal of fortune and the rhetoric of temporal doubling ; Freedom and the inescapable future ; The philosophy of grammar

    "This new study asks how stories affect the way we think about time and, in particular, how they condition thinking about the future. Focusing on surprise and the unforeseeable, the book argues that stories are mechanisms that reconcile what is taking place with what will have been. This relation between the present and the future perfect offers a grammatical formula quite different from our default notions of narrative as recollection or recapitulation. It promises new understandings of the reading process within the strange logic of a future that is already complete. It also points beyond that to some of the key temporal concepts of our epoch: prediction and unpredictability, uncertainty, the event, the untimely and the messianic. The argument is worked out in new readings of Sarah Waters' Fingersmith, Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go and Julian Barnes' The Sense of an Ending."--Publisher's website
