Rancière and Literature

Beschreibung

An exploration of Jacques Rancière's contribution to literary scholarship With the increasingly rapid translation of Rancière's writing into English, the question of what this philosopher has to offer to the study of literature has become pressing. This collection of 12 original essays both engages with Rancière's accounts of literature from across his body of work and puts his conceptual apparatus to work in acts of literary criticism. From his archival investigations of the literary efforts of nineteenth-century workers to his engagements with specific novelists and poets, from his concept of 'literarity' to his central positioning of the novel in his account of the three 'regimes' of literary practice, this book seeks to unearth, to consolidate, to evaluate and to critique this influential thinker's work on and with literature. Grace Hellyer has a PhD from the University of New South Wales and Julian Murphet is Scientia Professor in Modern Film and Literature also at the University of New South Wales.
