Abstract:

Dystopian literature occupies a central place in the English literary landscape of the 20th century. This article examines this novelistic genre in order to identify its major features, specific orientation and various nuances. It is based on a corpus of 4 novels: Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess and Fahrenheit 451 by the American writer Ray Bradbury. An examination of these novels, a fairly representative sample of 20th century English and Western dystopian literature, leads to the following two broad conclusions: T

Abstract:

Abstract: This essay rethinks the idea of the Victorian novel, arguing that this category and its conventional definition—realist, English, canonical—have obscured key aspects of novel history. Drawing on early twentieth-century surveys and criticism, I track how the "Victorian novel" emerged and was consolidated in critical history as a largely twentieth-century artifact. Using Priya Joshi's In Another Country (2002), I argue that the global book historical record contains evidence that novel theory has not yet incorporated: namely, realism's position as only one of many major novel genres in

Abstract:

Abstract Drawing on apophatic theology, this essay argues that some twentieth-century texts invite an apophatic approach by revealing the limits of language and hinting at some understanding of God, without doing so directly. First, Leif Enger’s Peace Like a River shows a divine encounter but, in the process, underscores the limits of language to describe this experience. Second, in a sort of parallel to negative theology, Walker Percy’s Lancelot points readers toward God by having Lancelot descend into sin and evil, an affirmation of God through negation. Finally, in Joseph Heller’s Catch-22,

This article seeks to revise that dominant characterization. In fact, the medicalization trend is only one part of a broader discursive shift, in which addiction has been normalized as a form of attachment and conduct—rendered ordinary, even predictable or natural, for a human life.

The genre began in England with Richardsonian domestic fiction and spread to Russia, where it evolved along different lines, shaped by the different social and political context.

Abstract:

This essay examines Lawd Today!, Richard Wright's posthumously published novel, written in the 1930s but only made available to readers in 1963. Concentrating on the epigraphs that punctuate the novel, the essay demonstrates the significance of the social criticism of the 1910s and 1920s to Wright's formation as literary artist. In particular, Wright was drawn to the writings of the Young American critics, including Van Wyck Brooks and Waldo Frank, whose criticisms of national ideologies furthered a commitment to “Americanism” as a horizon of social and cultural renewal. Wright's intellectual

Abstract:

The oedipal principle characteristic of the nineteenth-century novel of adultery survives into twentieth-century narrative fiction too, as exemplified in two films of the late century, Fatal Attraction (1987) and The Piano (1993). In both, a marriage is disrupted by the desire of an outsider. This article begins with that comparison, and then it turns to a third example of triangulation, The Talented Mr Ripley (1999).

Abstract: This paper explores how Blackness was perceived in early twentieth century Spain and Catalonia by analyzing two literary works: the novel El negro que tenía el alma blanca (1922) by Alberto Insúa and the theatre play Llibertat! (1901) by Santiago Rusiñol. The essay employs Frantz Fanon’s post-colonial and psychoanalytical theory about the colonized subject to provide a snapshot of Spanish and Catalan perceptions of Blackness in the early twentieth century, contributing to the flourishing debate about race in Iberian Studies. The article demonstrates that the plots of the texts, despi

Abstract:

Abstract In Iran—as never before in the history of the country—prostitutes gained notorious visibility in twentieth-century Persian literature. Fixation on the image of the prostitute created a wealth of literature beginning in 1924 with the first Persian urban social novel, The Horrible Tehran, by Murtiza Mushfiq Kazimi. Associating prostitution with economic corruption, political and administrative decay, and religious hypocrisy, Iranian male writers directed their attention toward representing the sexually wayward woman. By scrutinizing the image of the prostitute in The Horrible Tehran as

Abstract:

This essay maintains that an incarnational aesthetic often privileges the concrete over the abstract, transcends the dichotomy between the secular and the sacred, and offers a glimpse into the intersection of time and eternity, as evidenced in the works of Kathleen Norris, Madeleine L’Engle, James Joyce, T. S. Eliot, and Jorie Graham, though such themes are given particular resonance in the non-linear narrative technique of Graham Greene’s novel The End of the Affair. Greene seeks to represent the simultaneity of past, present, and future in the cyclical technique of his novel, which offers th

Abstract:

In my research, I analyze how the turn‑of‑the‑century mixture of antisemitism and esoteric interests provided a blueprint for Russian émigré right‑wing terrorist activities in 1920s. My case study is Elizaveta Shabelskaya‑Bork’s novel Satanists of the Twentieth Century (1911) – an enthusiastic reactualization of this novel’s material in the twenty‑first century points to a line of continuity from its ideological utilization in 1920s and 1930s to Russian post‑communist right‑wing fundamentalist circles, drawing inspiration from the nationalist antisemitic discourse of the previous century.
