Paperback. Condition: New. The first sustained exegesis of a neglected masterpiece of twentieth-century literature, Samuel Beckett's How It IsThis book maps out the novel's complex network of intertexts, sources and echoes, interprets its highly experimental writing and explains the work's great significance for twentieth-century literature. It offers a clear pathway into this remarkable bilingual novel, identifying Beckett's use of previously unknown sources in the history of Western philosophy, from the ancient and modern periods, and challenging critical orthodoxies. Through careful archival scholarship and attention to the dynamics of self-translation, the book traces Beckett's transformation of his narrator's 'ancient voice', his intellectual heritage, into a mode of aesthetic representation that offers the means to think beyond intractable paradoxes of philosophy. This shift in the work's relation to tradition marks a hiatus in literary modernism, a watershed moment whose deep and enduring significance may now be appreciated.Key FeaturesOffers the first comprehensive treatment of Beckett's most poorly understood novel, identifying the breadth of its philosophical and literary sourcesMakes extensive use of manuscript evidence and newly accessible notes from Beckett's reading in philosophyGuides the reader through Beckett's philosophical and theological sources, highlighting his innovative and original dialectics between the pre-Socratics, Plato, Aristotle, the Ancient Stoics, the early Church Fathers and desert mystics, seventeenth-century mystics and Rationalists.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Building upon the approach to reading literature pioneered by Bruce Gardiner at the University of Sydney for over four decades, Literature and Pedagogy is devoted to the way that texts - literary texts in particular - seek to instruct us.Bruce Gardiner has inspired generations of teachers and scholars in the field of literary criticism. He stands for a scholarly ethos which is at risk of disappearing. His distinctive academic career, which was entirely devoted to research-led teaching, invites us to think about the relationships between literary studies and pedagogy. It also invites us to ask what role a unique pedagogical style plays in the evolution of a discipline.This collection explores these questions, while also documenting Gardiner's methods of scholarly as much as professional resistance to the neo-liberalisation and neo-conservatism of contemporary academic culture. Contributors draw from inspiring encounters with him to reflect upon the rhetoric and motifs of pedagogy within literary works. They put Gardiner's mode of reading into practice by offering new interpretations of pedagogical mechanisms employed within important literary works, from the seventeenth century to the present, and of cultural phenomena, like colonial interpretations of the Australian lyrebird's song. The volume also offers pieces inspired by Gardiner, such as poetry, art, translation and creative non-fiction, as well as three unpublished lectures by Gardiner himself.Techniques and methodologies of literary education are traditionally believed to offer students the keys with which to unlock the secrets of texts and foster their appreciation. Literature and Pedagogy offers a new perspective, showing teachers and students of both education and literature how literary works present their own methods for reflecting critically upon how and why we learn, read and teach.
