Abstract:
New Historicism subverts the traditional binary opposition between literature and history, highlights the operation of “power” and “discourse” within texts, and explores two-way concerns for history and texts. Under the perspective of new historicism, this paper aims to interpret how HISTORICITY OF TEXTS and TEXTUALITY OF HISTORY are embodied in Absalom, Absalom! by William Faulkner. The paper concludes that, Faulkner’s resorting to literary creation, on one hand, reflects the history and on the other hand, highlights the reality, which realizes the interaction between literature and history.

Abstract:
in that city foreign and paradoxical, with its atmosphere at once fatal and languorous, at once feminine and steel-hard—William Faulkner, Absalom, Absalom! (1936)Do you know what it means to miss New OrleansAnd miss it each night and dayI know I'm not wrong, the feeling's getting strongerThe longer I stay awayDo you know what it means to miss New OrleansSince that's where you left your heart(And there's something more)I miss the one I care for more than I miss New Orleans—Louis Alter (music) and Eddie DeLange (lyrics),“Do You Know What It Means to Miss New Orleans” (1946)BOMBARDED BY THE DISCOURSE OF “TRAGEDY” FROM MAINSTREAM MEDIA AND GOVERNMENTAL OFFICIALS TRYING TO CHARACTERIZE post-Katrina New Orleans, I decided to reread William Faulkner. Ungluing myself from the computer screen, I hoped to distract myself with a literary version of another tragedy of the South. Faulkner's sense of the city's “paradox” and “foreign”-ness—in the case of this hurricane, the fury of climatic events that inexorably led to incomprehensible effects: much of its citizenry's forced migration, dispossession of property, and denial of the right of return as well as ecological catastrophe—was geographically and culturally resonant.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract “The Ghost in the Account Book” claims that the imperial fiction of Joseph Conrad and William Faulkner rejects accounting as a totalizing logic and, by extension, questions the English novel's complicity in propagating faith in that false logic. Accounting, which had remained unobtrusively immanent to realist novels of empire such as Mansfield Park and Great Expectations, surfaces to the diegetic level and becomes available for critical scrutiny in high modernist novels such as Heart of Darkness or Absalom, Absalom! Drawing from writings by Max Weber (on guarantees of calculability) and Mary Poovey (on the accuracy effect), this essay attends to the dandy accountant of Heart of Darkness, the accretive narrative structure of Nostromo, and Shreve's recasting of Sutpen's life as a debtor's farce in Absalom, Absalom! If Conrad bluntly equates accounting with lying, Faulkner reveals secrets elided in rows of debit and credit one by one as sensational truths; to those ends, both writers invoke Gothic conventions. By dispatching the totalizing technique that had been invented by early modern merchants and finessed by realist novelists to generate faith in a stable fiduciary community, Conrad and Faulkner impel the invention of newer forms and figures with which to express the new imperial (and later, postcolonial) world order.

Full text
Abstract:
The article deals with heroines of William Faulkner's novels Light in August, Absalom, Absalom!, The Sound and the Fury, The Unvanquished, The Town and his short story "A Rose for Emily". The Southern belle features as a recurring character in Faulkner's fiction, her fragility, modesty, weakness yet strength, beauty, sincerity, generous nature, status and her fall from innocence comprise her central characteristics. Confronted with various expectations of Southern society and with the hardships of war, the belle is faced with many obstacles and challenges. Faulkner's heroines face a wide array of problems that prevent them from being and/or remaining a Southern belle. Let us name a few: Lena's inappropriate social status, Joanna's wrong roots, Mrs. Hightower's inability to fulfill her duties as the minister's wife, Ellen's miserable marriage, Judith's sad love life, Rosa's feelings of inferiority and humiliation, Mrs. Compson's failure as a mother, Caddy's weak rebellion against male convention, Drusilla's male characteristics, Linda's unrequited love and Emily's dark secret, to name a few. Through these characters and their destinies Faulkner shows a decaying South whose position has changed considerably over the years. Can the Southern belle save it? Can she save herself?

Full text
Abstract:
In Poe’s short story “The Fall of the House of Usher” the house where the events unfold is described as a sentient being, and its first description forebodes the occurrence of dark events. In addition, Poe utilizes the house of Usher to show how the fate of the house and its inhabitants are connected. The House of Usher stands for the building itself as well as the family, and Usher himself believes that the house is alive and can also exert its influence on the people living in it. The house of Thomas Sutpen in Faulkner’s Absalom, Absalom! is equally significant and is used to symbolize Sutpen’s will to establish his dynasty. The house is furnished luxuriously to establish his reputation in society, and Sutpen finally succeeds in bringing home a wife to the completed house. However, after the war the house is in ruins and Sutpen is unable to defy his fate anymore: he cannot rebuild the house, which – several years later – is burnt down by his own daughter, the partly black Clytemnestra. This paper compares and contrasts the houses and their function in the two works.

This paper attempts to analyze Faulkner’s novel from archetypal perspective with a focus on Biblical allusions in the novel Absalom, Absalom. My purpose is to induce a kind of pattern in Faulkner’s writings which reveals the artist’s capability to assimilate archetypes as well as displace them. His unique method of using archetypes remarkably foregrounds the themes of his fictions and marks him as an innovative and talented writer.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper discusses the anxiety as an impact of slavery reflected in two outstanding African-American novels: Toni Morrison’s Beloved and William Faulkner’s Absalom, Absalom!. These novels are set in around the slavery period which shows how cruel and brutal slavery practices in the United States. The plots consist of some traditions and beliefs among White and African-American which have emerged since the antebellum period. By using a comparative approach, this paper focuses on the types of anxiety mentioned by Sigmund Freud. The analysis shows that both neurotic and moral anxieties play a pivotal psychological element throughout the intense “black-white” binary narratives. In this case, Toni Morrison’s Beloved consists of neurotic anxiety in the form of trauma experienced by Sethe and William Faulkner’s Absalom, Absalom! consist of moral anxiety in the form of shame for having Negro bloodline in aristocrat Southern plantation culture. Both novels show that slavery, whether it stands as a tradition or as an economic value, has significantly shaped the direction of American society.

Abstract:
In this article it is argued that students can gain a better understanding of both inter- and intra-disciplinary boundaries by inquiring into a single salient point where two disciplines may only partially intersect. Building on Marton's variation theory and Vygotsky's notion of articulation, a teaching model is presented and exemplified by disciplinary intersections regarding narration and narrativity in Literature and History. This is done specifically by investigating the theoretical implications of Shoshana Felman's notion of “key narratives” using William Faulkner's novel Absalom, Absalom!. The “key narrative” concept is adapted for the specific purpose of analyzing the practice of narratives in the disciplines Literature and History, respectively. It is suggested that Faulkner's novel seen as such a narrative explores pertinent questions concerning disciplinary boundaries for graduate and post-graduate students with a developed disciplinary identity in either of these disciplines.

Abstract:
En el presente artículo se analizan algunos rasgos de la influencia del escritor estadounidense William Faulkner en la narrativa de Juan Carlos Onetti. El trabajo representa una lectura de tres temas de la teología sistemática: la fe, Dios y la carne, tal como aparecen en las obras de ambos autores. En la primera parte, se toma como esquema de análisis la teoría elaborada por el mexicano Carlos Fuentes que indaga sobre las tres razones por las cuales los autores del boom latinoamericano adoptaron el estilo narrativo de Faulkner: el mito del lugar ficticio, la derrota y el tiempo circular a manera del eterno retorno. En la segunda, se ofrecen ejemplos de los rasgos de la influencia faulkneriana en varios autores del llamado boom latinoamericano, con especial referencia a Juan Carlos Onetti. El trabajo se centra en las novelas La vida breve y El astillero de Onetti y ¡Absalón, Absalón! de Faulkner. En las conclusiones, se reflexiona sobre el modo en que son presentados los temas de la fe, Dios y la carne en la narrativa de ambos autores, el tipo de teología que reflejan –católica o protestante– y sus puntos de convergencia y divergencia. Se ha optado por una metodología hermenéutica.

Abstract:
O romance Absalão, Absalão! de Willian Faulkner vale-se de recursos narrativos que aproximam a existência de seus personagens, em múltiplos planos narrativos, à materialidade dos textos orais e escritos de que compõem-se as suas memórias. Este trabalho propõe-se a tarefa de refletir sobre o texto como marca humana e extensão do “ser”, com base na narrativa de Faulkner. Para tanto, mencionaremos a questão da autoria e associaremos a ideia do autor morto à escrita tumular, recorrente na obra, para exemplificar a tentativa do homem de sobreviver ao tempo, e nos apoiaremos no pensamento de Henri Bergson que atribui importância ao corpo para a composição da memória em oposição à concepção do cérebro como depósito de memórias. Por fim, consideraremos o esquecimento como forma de escritura e, ainda nos valendo do pensamento de Bergson, que sugere uma matéria contínua, proporemos uma leitura que considera a continuidade universal e inscreve, inclusive, o leitor na narrativa ficcional.

Values are the necessary code for human conduct for harmonious life of integrity. Human beings are rational; they have reason for each and every action. Their actions bring out their beliefs, attitudes and custom. William Faulkner in his novels The Sound and the Fury and Absalom, Absalom! delivers perfect medium of the values in spirituality and absence in it. This research work focuses on the absence of spiritual values which lead to confusion and disorientation in the lives of many characters. All the characters discussed in the works of William Faulkner gives a perfect medium of trouble not only to self but also to others just because of the least consideration that is given to the values based on spirituality.

Each text incorporates the origin in writing and exposes it to difference—plurality, ambiguity, discontinuity. With this, the perpetual rewriting of the strong poem (the Book of Genesis) at the symbolic founding, the originary tradition transforms itself through incorporation of non-canonical elements, as the ‘same’ turns endlessly different: hybrid, ex-centric, grotesque, increasingly Creolized.

Revela un psiquismo cerrado, una incapacidad de asimilar al otro, una deficiencia, una regresión. Puede parecer normal pero expresa una detención en el desarrollo moral y psíquico de una sociedad y una persona.
