Описание: Examines Austen`s presentation of sibling love and rivalry in the context of the social and historical changes in the late 18th and early 19th centuries and analyses the incest motif in numerous works of the period, arguing that the handling of incestuous themes represents a stage in the development of the novel. Originally published in 1992.
This selective literary history of tears and bodily porosity offers something new and different: it is not an enumeration of weepers in different texts, and it argues against hypotheses (such as by Thomas Dixon) that claim that the British have a unique way of dealing with tears. Instead, it focuses more on the precarious relationship between porosity and its opposite - closure, containment and stoniness - arguing that Romeo's, Pamela's or Harley's tears are neither British nor Italian excretions, but markers that indicate the extent to which different societies and epochs respond to and tolerate bodily porosity. From this new angle, literary history turns out to be a meandering narrative in which 'female' porosity and 'manly' stoniness clash, in which their relationship is constantly re-negotiated and in which effusive and 'feminine' genres (letters, poetic effusions, streams of consciousness) are pitted against stony and astringent forms of masculinity (epitaphs, sonnets, stanzas etymologically seen as architectural rooms). Taking in works from writers as diverse as Aphra Behn, William Shakespeare, William Wordsworth, Charlotte Bronte, John Keats, TS Eliot and DH Lawrence, this book spans approximately 300 years and unpacks how bodily liquidity, porosity and petrification recur as a pattern and underlie the chequered history of the body and genders.
