Origin and Ellipsis in the Writing of Hilary Mantel

An Elliptical Dialogue with the Thinking of Jacques Derrida

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Origin and Ellipsis in the Writing of Hilary Mantel provokes a re-engagement with Derrida's thinking in contemporary literature, with particular emphasis on the philosopher's preoccupation with the process of writing. This is the first book-length study of Mantel's writing, not just in terms of Derrida's thought, but through any critical perspective or lens to date.

'Pollard's deft and lively handling of Mantel's fiction in conversation with the thinking of Jacques Derrida and Jean Luc Nancy is a significant contribution to Mantel scholarship, one which offers the discerning reader a wealth of insights into one of our foremost novelists.' -- Dr Lucy Arnold, University of Leeds
