Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Experimental Criticism offers a series of close critical engagements with Franco Moretti, one of the worlds most innovative literary thinkers. Moretti is the author of among other works Signs Taken for Wonders, Modern Epic and Graphs, Maps, Trees. He is perhaps best known for his computational distant reading of vast numbers of literary texts at the Stanford Literary Lab. In this book Francesco de Cristofaro and Stefano Ercolino lead a lively exploration of Morettis protean, experimental approach to literary criticism. Topics range from evolutionary theory and the sociology of literary forms to world literature and the Digital Humanities. A concluding part is dedicated to one of Morettis most prized research objects: the novel. Experimental Criticism recovers Morettis origins on the Italian Trotskyist Left and is enriched by essays from Moretti himself on Lukacss Theory of the Novel and the tension between close and distant reading. Why study literature?, Moretti asks. For the pleasure of reducing complex things to their simple elements. To bring them back to earth. A fascinating guide to Franco Moretti's literary criticism Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback or Softback. Condition: New. Experimental Criticism: Franco Moretti and Literature. Book.

Paperback. Condition: New. Experimental Criticism offers a series of close critical engagements with one of the world's most innovative literary thinkers. Franco Moretti, author of such major works as Signs Taken for Wonders, The Way of the World, Modern Epic, Atlas of the European Novel and The Bourgeois, may be best known for his 'distant reading' of vast numbers of literary texts at the Stanford Literary Lab. Francesco de Cristofaro and Stefano Ercolino lead a lively exploration of his work as a springboard for rethinking the fundamentals of literary studies.Topics include literary theory and method, problems of scale and canonisation, the evolution of literary forms, abstract modelling and the digital humanities, comparative versus world literature, Marxism and literary history, and tragedy and the novel. There are essays from Moretti himself on Lukács and the tensions between close and distant reading, plus a 'provisional epilogue' in which he reflects on his intellectual itinerary and the challenges posed by contributors to this volume. 'Why study literature?' he asks. For the pleasure of reducing complex things to their simple elements; to bring them back to earth.This key retrospective amounts to a critical manifesto for an experimental literary materialism, one unafraid to test radical new hypotheses.…

Hardback. Condition: New. Written in the style of a Galilean dialogue, this book offers a compelling exploration of the physical and epistemological foundations of quantum mechanics. Through a lively and accessible exchange, it delves into the major interpretations of quantum theory, from the historic debate between Einstein and Bohr to the paradoxes of Schrödinger's cat and Wigner's friend, and from the many-worlds interpretation to the theory of decoherence.The dialogue also examines alternative approaches to the orthodox view, with particular attention to the Ghirardi-Rimini-Weber theory, developed at the University of Trieste, and Bohmian mechanics. Key topics such as quantum entanglement and non-locality are thoroughly discussed, making this book a comprehensive guide to the central issues in the ongoing debate.For readers seeking a deeper understanding, eleven mathematical appendices provide rigorous insights into the concepts introduced in the main text, without requiring advanced technical background.This is a book for the intellectually curious, anyone eager to engage with one of the most fascinating and unresolved philosophical discussions in modern science.…
