Autobiography
Linda Anderson, University of Newcastle, UK
This wide-ranging introduction to the study of autobiography offers a historical overview of autobiographical writing from St Augustine to the present day. Linda Anderson follows the important developments in autobiographical criticism in the last thirty years, paying particular attention to psychoanalytic, post-structuralist and feminist approaches. This volume:
● outlines the main theoretical issues and concepts of this difficult area
● looks at the different forms from confessions to narratives to memoirs to diaries
● considers the major writers of this historical tradition.
Culture/ Metaculture
Francis Mulhern, Middlesex University, UK
Culture/Metaculture is a stimulating introduction to the meanings of "culture" in contemporary Western society. This essential survey examines:
● culture as an antidote to "mass" modernity, in the work of Thomas Mann, Julien Benda, Karl Mannheim and F.R. Leavis
● post-war theories of "popular" culture and the rise of Cultural Studies, paying particular attention to the key figures of Raymond Williams and Stuart Hall
● theories of "metaculture", or the ways in which culture, however defined, speaks of itself.
Modernism
Peter Childs, Cheltenham and Gloucester College of Higher Education, UK
With its battle cry of "Make it New", the modernist movement shook the foundations of the late nineteenth and early twentieth-century literary establishment. Modernism offers an outstanding analysis of this literary and cultural revolution.
Peter Childs’ immensely readable account:
● details the origins of the modernist movement and the influence of thinkers such as Darwin, Marx, Freud, Nietzsche, Saussure and Einstein
● explores the radical changes which occurred in the literature, drama, art and film of the period
● traces "modernism at work" in the writing of Joyce, Woolf, Mansfied, Forster, Yeats, Ford, Eliot, Beckett and other key literary figures.
Science Fiction
Adam Roberts, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK
Science fiction is one of the most vigorous and exciting areas of modern culture, ranging from groundbreaking novels of ideas to blockbusters on the cinema screen. This outstanding volume offers a clear and critically engaged account of the phenomenon. Adam Roberts:
● provides a concise history of science fiction and the ways in which the genre has been defined
● examines the interactions between science fiction and science fact
● anchors each chapter with a case study drawn from short story, book or film, from Frank Herbert’s Dune to Barry Sonnenfeld’s Men in Black.
