In "Shadowtime" Jim Reilly asks questions about literature's relation to the cherished principles of history: origination, historical reconstruction, possession and the very concept of Reality. Taking up Adorno's assertion about the crisis of 20th-century art and its inability to represent historical events, Reilly searches for the roots of this problem and its articulation within the works of Hardy, Conrad and George Eliot. Drawing on the theories of Benjamin, Foucault, Hegel, Lukacs and Nietzsche, the author constructs a powerful argument across the entire period of historicism's triumph and decline.
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
In Shadowtime Jim Reilly explores how the great Victorian and Edwardian works of literature can be read in the light of current radical historiography, which foresees the extinction not just of art but of history itself.
This is an outstanding combination of original readings and critical survey. Shadowtime is ideal material for anyone studying nineteenth-century realism, modernism and the history of aesthetics.
