Origin and Ellipsis in the Writing of Hilary Mantel (eBook, ePUB)

An Elliptical Dialogue with the Thinking of Jacques Derrida

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book provokes a re-engagement with Derrida's thinking in contemporary literature, with 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 lens.

Rezensionen

'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
