9780367613051: Objects and Intertexts in Toni Morrison’s

Synopsis

This is an inspired contribution to the scholarship on one of the most influential American novels and novelists. The author positions Beloved as a meditation on historical justice and re-comprehends it as both a formal tragedy-a generic translation of fiction and tragedy or a "novel-tragedy" (Kliger)-and as a novel of objects.

À propos de l'auteur

Maureen E. Ruprecht Fadem completed her Ph.D. in English at The Graduate Center of CUNY. She is Associate Professor of English at CUNY/Kingsborough and Affiliate Professor of Arts and Letters in Drew University's Caspersen School of Graduate Studies. Maureen's research is on Anglophone writing of the late twentieth and twenty-first centuries with specializations in Irish, Asian, and African American literatures. Her research fields include Irish studies, Partition studies, and Postcolonial Studies; within those areas she looks at questions of reparations, of literary poetics, and of race, gender, and class. Maureen's first book, The Literature of Northern Ireland: Spectral Borderlands appeared from Palgrave in 2015. In 2019, a second book-length study titled Silence and Articulacy in the Poetry of Medbh McGuckian was brought out by Rowman & Littlefield. In late 2020, Routledge, Inc. will bring out Maureen's co-edited collection, in which she has two chapters, The Economics of Empire: Genealogies of Capital and the Colonial Encounter. Recent articles include "A Consciousness of Streets: Reflections on the Origin and Spread of Partition" (Synthesis, 2016) and "Drawing the Border, Queering the Nation: Nation Trouble in Breakfast on Pluto and The Crying Game" (Gender Forum, 2016). In 2021, Maureen will commence new research for a three-volume comparative study of modes of realism in the contemporary literatures of partition and for a second edited collection called Imperial Debt, Postcolonial Reparations. She lives in Brooklyn.
