Описание:

Of the twelve books David Foster Wallace published both during his lifetime and posthumously, only three were novels. Nevertheless, Wallace always thought of himself primarily as a novelist. From his college years at Amherst, when he wrote his first novel as part of a creative honors thesis, to his final days, Wallace was buried in a novel project, which he often referred to as the Long Thing. Meanwhile, the short stories and journalistic assignments he worked on during those years he characterized as playing hooky from a certain Larger Thing. Wallace was also a specific kind of novelist, devoted to producing a specific kind of novel, namely the omnivorous, culture-consuming encyclopedic novel, as described in 1976 by Edward Mendelson in a ground-breaking essay on Thomas Pynchons Gravitys Rainbow.

David Foster Wallace and The Long Thing is a state-of-the art guide through Wallaces three major works, including the generation-defining Infinite Jest. These essays provide fresh new readings of each of Wallaces novels as well as thematic essays that trace out patterns and connections across the three works. Most importantly, the collection includes six chapters on Wallaces unfinished novel, The Pale King, which will prove to be foundational for future scholars of this important text.

Описание: Neil Gaiman has emerged as one of the most influential literary figures of the twenty-first century, from his roots in graphic novels to experimental social media collaborations, from award-winning fantasy fiction to beloved children's books. To borrow a phrase from Gaiman's internationally celebrated, viral graduation speech, he “makes good art.“Featuring seventeen original scholarly essays covering a broad range of Gaiman's prolific output, this collection includes readings of the novels American Gods, Anansi Boys, The Graveyard Book, and The Ocean at the End of the Lane; explores the children's books The Wolves in the Walls and Blueberry Girl; investigates the online short story collection A Calendar of Tales and the Doctor Who episode “Nightmare in Silver;” and looks carefully at Gaiman's return to the serial comic book form with Sandman: Overture.Artist J.H. Williams III also contributes an exclusive interview about his collaboration with Gaiman on Sandman: Overture. Finally, cartoonist and former Real World: San Francisco cast member Judd Winick includes a personal essay illustrating how artists are continually, profoundly influenced by Gaiman's creative output.Focused on helping scholars and fans alike, these essays conceptualize the latest iterations of an evolving, always-emerging artist as he makes art in the developing landscape of twenty-first century literature.

Описание: At the 2013 "Celebrating The Hobbit " conference at Valparaiso University two plenary papers were presented by John D. Rateliff and Verlyn Flieger. In discussions it became apparent that a book focusing on how The Hobbit influenced the subsequent development of Tolkien`s legendarium was sorely needed. This collection of essays fills that need.

Описание: Despite the many books written about him, Stevens remains a difficult poet, whose notorious injunction - `Poetry must resist the intelligence almost successfully` - seems to haunt all his work, and especially the long poems. This study presents a close reading of Stevens` seven longest poems including `The Auroras of Autumn` and `An Ordinary Evening in New Haven`.
