Abstract:

In recent years, many school librarians have been scrambling to build and expand their graphic novel collections to meet the large and growing demand for these materials. For the purposes of this study, the term graphic novels refers to volumes in which the content is provided through sequential art, including fiction, nonfiction, and biographical material. As the library field has not yet arrived at a set of best practices or guidelines for institutions working to classify and catalog graphic novels, this study seeks to record the ways in which school librarians are handling these materials a

Abstract:

His criticism and efforts to overcome the negative consequences of postmodern irony – mostly as a worldview that has had a profound impact on contemporary American society and literature – are central to understanding David Foster Wallace’s literary work. Unlike his highly influential fiction (novels and short stories), his nonfiction (essays and articles) still remains understudied, in spite of the volume and importance of his essays in the Ameri- can culture and beyond. The paper analyses Wallace’s criticism of postmodern irony in his nonfiction by considering three selected essays, with the

Abstract The Amazonian region occupies a singular place in the fiction and nonfiction of the Peruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa.

This article discusses this conflict between Vargas Llosa's fictional and nonfictional work on the Amazon through the lens of a theory of fiction that emerges from his essays across decades and that suggest

At the turn of the 20th-21st centuries, the literary process of the USA demonstrates a steady move towards an organic fusion of fiction and nonfiction, on the one hand, and mythologization / demythologization of national history and images, on the other. This paper addresses mythologization of the image of the father in nonfiction novels “Unto the Sons” (1992) by G. Talese and “Patrimony: A True Story” (1991) by Ph. Roth. In their literary nonfiction, both G. Talese and Ph. Roth often turn to the problems of the search for national identity, which is connected with their origin. In the book “U

Locating such works as Frank McCourt’s Angela’s Ashes or Michael Herr’s Dispatches in any bookshop or library often presents an unexpected challenge for the average reader. As a nonfictional account firmly embedded in the author’s personal experiences, there is strong reason to think that such books would be included in the History section, comfortably situated amongst similarly factual texts of historical discourse. Curiously, however, they are often found sharing shelf space with deliberately fictional novels. This example of inconsistent categorisation is a concern for many readers of such

His Of Mice and Men (1937), to illustrate, speaks to failed American aspirations that range from the longing for home, independence, and equal rights, to the need for humane treatment of all.

Her letters capture the intermingling of two different historical times in Japan: a traditional way of life that had existed for centuries and the newly introduced, Westernized modern Japan. I argue that Bird’s writing also portrays the coexistence of two different temporalities—her contemporary, or ‘historical’ time, and

Толстой следовал лучшим образцам русской исторической беллетристики, созданным Пушкиным, Лермонтовым и Гоголем. Он черпает из народной речи, фольклора, документальных источников и умело употребляет в поэтических текстах исторических баллад и драм актуальные разговорные и негрубые просторечные слова. В романе Князь Серебряный и нескольких прозаических сценах драматической трилогии Толстой более смело и частотно вводит в речь персонажей разговорные и просторечные слова, также сохраняя жанровостил

The writers of the Diaspora have established themselves as masters of the genre of fiction. Though excellent poets and short story writers from the Indian diaspora have emerged in recent years.

Abstract:

Linda Lê has noted that writing shapes her identity more than any origins or affiliations, a knowledge which she claims allows her to occupy with ease the illegitimate spaces between homeland and adopted country, between belonging and unbelonging. But Lê’s work regularly stages the encounter between writing and not writing – juxtaposing the writer and the blank page, inspiration and silence – and figures the act of writing as a symbiotic relationship between a parasite and its host. This paper will examine these themes in two of Lê’s novels: Un si tendre vampire (1987) and Conte de l’amour bif

Literary histories of the twentieth century often emphasize how rapid technological innovation spurred writers to reimagine the novel's form and central concerns. This essay investigates that claim, comparing the presence of various information technologies in American fiction with their nonfictional presence in American households. What this comparison reveals is a pronounced lag: a gap in time between when a new technology becomes ubiquitous in the home and when it becomes ubiquitous in the novel. Moreover, the shape of this lag is consistent across multiple technologies, tracing a normative

Abstract: This essay presents an exploration of Mumeihi [ The Unnamed Monument ], an enigmatic novel by Japanese Christian writer Ayako Sono. Recognized as a work of literature inspired by the biblical book of Job, Mumeihi is the story of how an elite civil engineer is killed by his wife, who becomes insane following their daughter's death. The novel's complex plot, multiple moving parts, absence of a biblical reference, and entirely pagan setting, have left its Joban origin elusive among the reading public. The essay uncovers the novel's Joban allusions and themes, including by using, as the
