Swanns Way, the first part of A la recherche de temps perdu, Marcel Prousts seven-part cycle, was published in 1913. In it, Proust introduces the themes that run through the entire work. The narrator recalls his childhood, aided by the famous madeleine; and describes M. Swanns passion for Odette. The work is incomparable. Edmund Wilson said "[Proust] has supplied for the first time in literature an equivalent in the full scale for the new theory of modern physics."This is the most up-to-date translation available. In 1989, the Bibliothèque de la Pléiade published the final volume of the definitive original text. For this translation, D.J. Enright revised the late Terence Kilmartins acclaimed reworking of C.K. Scott Moncrieffs translation to take into account the new French editions.Also available from the Modern Library: In Search of Lost Time Vol. I: Swann's Way, 0-679-60005-1Vol. II: Within a Budding Grove, 0-679-60006-XVol. III: The Guermantes Way, 0-679-60028-0Vol. IV: Sodom and Gomorrah, 0-679-60029-9Vol. V: The Captive & The Fugitive, 0-679-42477-6Vol. VI: Time Regained & A Guide to Proust, 0-679-42476-8        The Proust Six-Pack, 0-679-60295-X

Publication Date: 1997

George Herbert is undeniably a devotional poet, devoted to Christ and to the Church as Christ's representative on earth, yet his poetry has an energy, inventiveness and intellectual depth and edge usually missing from what we think of as devotional verse.

Interplay: A Kind of Commonplace Book

D.J. Enright

ISBN: 9780192880307
Publisher: Oxford Univ Pr
Publication Date: 1997
Binding: Softcover

A commonplace book, by its very nature, should be unique; D. J. Enright's proves to be a mixture of personal, critical, playful, and profound. It is a commerce between the author and other writers, touching, for instance, on childhood, young murderers, and the use and abuse of stereotypes, modern biography, ars erotica old and new, animals and man's assumed dominion over them, obsolete notions of integrity in business and government, and the machinery of dreaming. A common reader himself, and as light of heart as the subject will allow, the author explores such prose poets as Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, and Freud, some curious points of theology, the penalties of imagination, and linguistic bizarrerie in sundry quarters. He looks into the world of books, contemporary Grub Street, the eccentricities of criticism, the reductive tendency of current fiction, literary theory and practice, and the necessity and impracticability of censorship. D. J. Enright casts a cool eye on contemporary manners, an amused one on mishaps and misunderstandings, not least those affecting old age, and a sad one on our perversities and crimes and other marks of original sin. In so doing he gives us a 'kind of' autobiography of a man whose life is inseparable from literature.
