Abstract:
The article deals with the issue of refuting the negative perception of the wolf among the inhabitants of Alaska in the novel A Wolf Called Romeo by Nick Jans. The pejorative perception of the wolf’s existence has its source in the persecution of this predator that began in the 17th century. Nick Jans’ non-fiction novel relates to the seven-year coexistence of Juneau residents in Alaska with a lone, untamed wolf. This novel demythologizes stereotypical, negative beliefs about wolves. This song is an important voice on the policy of protecting wolves in Alaska and is a literary illustration of

Abstract:
AbstractThe chapter concerns a master’s programme in non-fiction writing as part of the development of the field of sakprosa (non-fiction) in Norway. The chapter is based on experience from teaching at a master’s programme in non-fiction writing (Master i faglitterær skriving) at the University of South-Eastern Norway 2007–2020. The programme developed along with the growing field of sakprosa in Norway, a field of institutions and actors from the traditional literary field as well as dedicated policy makers and academic scholars. Our claim is that the programme was embedded in the evolving episteme of sakprosa in Norway while teaching and practicing understandings of non-fiction. The chapter forms a case study of the programme in terms of its position in the literary, cultural and academic field of non-fiction. We explore the ideas and pedagogy adopting an ethnographic approach using our own experiences as teachers and administrators and by the analysis of student texts from the programme. The purpose is to clarify how the programme contributed to the development of the episteme of sakprosa and what kind of agents (or authors)—sheep, watch dogs and wolves—the programme has made for the greater field of non-fiction in Norway.

Abstract:
Following a brief discussion of what constitutes a ‘good’ translation, this chapter seeks to demonstrate how the translation of Katherine Mansfield’s fiction into French is a complex process, which has rarely been executed well. There are fundamental problems in translating fiction such as Mansfield’s, where literary nuances such as the use of free indirect discourse, her very precise punctuation, together with her particular brand of humour, which includes specific idiolects, seldom survive translation from English to French. An examination will also be made of more than one translation of the same text, where such translations exist, to determine whether these newer translations offer a more accurate rendering of Mansfield’s original texts.

Full text
Abstract:
Chapter 4, which covers the period from c. 1850 to c. 1960, begins with a genre of representation that came into its own in the nineteenth century: historical fiction. The chapter addresses some of the interpretive challenges that historical fictions present and offers new readings of two early stories about Wolsey, both set in his native Suffolk. The emergence of historical fiction occurred contemporaneously with far-reaching developments in academic historiography. With the publication of copious original documents from the Henrician period came new resources for the study of Wolsey. The chapter explores the work of such historians as James Anthony Froude and J. S. Brewer, alongside the Wolsey biographies of Mandell Creighton (1891), Ethelred Taunton (1902), A. F. Pollard (1929), and Hilaire Belloc (1930). It observes how Victorian historians were often zealous about policing the boundaries of their discipline. Finally, since it is from this period that we have the earliest evidence for the public commemoration of Wolsey, the chapter explores the ways in which the cardinal was remembered in early-twentieth-century civic pageants in Oxford and Ipswich, as well as on the anniversaries of his Oxford foundation, currently known as Christ Church.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Julia Kristeva considers that writing fiction can be a form of psychoanalysis. This is evident in Le Vieil Homme et les loups (1991), an autofictional retelling of the events surrounding the death of her father in communist Bulgaria. In this detective novel, Kristeva’s traumatic experiences are interwoven with a tale of an old man whose world is threatened by hordes of wolves. Infused with a sense of displacement, uncertainty, and instability, Le Vieil Homme draws on Ovid’s Metamorphoses to highlight the dangers to society posed by increasing indifference and banalization. By offering a close reading of the novel, this chapter responds to Kristeva’s request that the reader delve deeply rather than giving it a superficial reading. Her wide use of intertextual references and practices is in part self-referential, a reminder of her role in developing intertextuality. This intertextuality allows Kristeva to be inspired by old forms to tell of something new, thereby amplifying and enriching the novel’s meaning and import. An allegorical social commentary, the implications of which still resonate today, Le Vieil Homme reflects Kristeva’s fears for Western civilization, coloured by her formative experiences in Eastern Europe, and exemplified by the dangers threatening the continued existence of the Latin language and its poets. However, by employing Ovid’s enduring words and myths, Kristeva provides a chink of optimism. Adopting the great poet’s mantle, she offers a potent demonstration of his lasting staying-power, giving witness to the final word of the Metamorphoses, ‘Vivam’.

Full text
Abstract:
Following other critics of the so-called “finance fiction” or “fi-fi” genre, the chapter begins by observing that finance doesn’t play a major role in Tom Wolfe’s The Bonfire of the Vanities: It is limited to the pages about a gold-backed bond and the neoliberalization of black power, an issue that Wolfe had already addressed in his earlier “Radical Chic.” Instead, the chapter identifies “psychosis” as a major theme in this contemporary finance fiction. While many critics have focused on racism in the novel, and in some cases on what they perceive to be the racism of the novel (which, in its avowedly all-inclusive representation of New York City privileges the upper-class white perspective), its revisionist reading lays bare what I consider to be the novel’s central drama: how both its white, upper-class protagonist Sherman McCoy and its black, lower-class protagonist Henry Lamb are caught up in psychotic situations created by money, politics, and the media—situations over which they have no control. The chapter ultimately turns to Cristina Alger’s The Darlings as an example of how this is borne out in post-2008 financial fiction.

Abstract:
Chapter 7 begins by examining another novel mode of financial operation: the leveraged buyout. Fact and fiction overlap in the discussion of this financial practice, and the chapter moves to consider fictional representations of finance and to explore the narrative construction of finance. It deals with the written underpinnings of finance, from Daniel Defoe onwards, and then examines contemporary financial print culture, epitomized by Tom Wolfe’s Bonfire of the Vanities, in more detail. It moves to a focus on gender, both in fiction and practice, and considers the changing performances and representations of gender in finance, exploring how elitism and exclusion can be reproduced in finance.

This chapter sets Fisher’s early work in the context of the regional literature movement in American literature—a movement that also included such writers as William Faulkner, John Steinbeck, and Thomas Wolfe, Fisher’s regional fiction—including his autobiographical tetralogy—is set in the Antelope region of Southern Idaho. The Antelope books include Fisher’s autobiographical tetralogy and other works modeled on members of his family, but they also incorporate an entire fictional storyworld much like Faulkner’s Yoknapatawpha. The chapter argues that Fisher’s Antelope fiction constitutes the first significant example of regionalism in the area that Donald W. Meinig identified as the “Mormon Culture Region.”
