(the date of the earliest surviving document in any Romance language) to the 1980s is the most compact & imaginative single-volume guide available in English to the French literary tradition. In fact, no comparable work exists in either language. This is not the customary inventory of authors & titles but rather a collection of wide-angled views of historical & cultural phenomena. It sets before us writers, public figures, criminals, saints, & monarchs, as well as religious, cultural, & social revolutions. It gives us books, paintings, public monuments, even television shows. Written by 164 American & European specialists, the essays are introduced by date & arranged in chronological order, but here ends the book's resemblance to the usual history of literature. Each date is followed by a headline evoking an event that indicates the chronological point of departure. Usually the event is literary (the publication of an original work, a journal, a translation, the first performance of a play, the death of an author), but some events are literary only in terms of their repercussions or resonances. Essays devoted to a genre exist alongside essays devoted to one book, institutions are presented side by side with literary movements, & large surveys appear next to detailed discussions of specific landmarks. No article is limited to the "life & works" of a single author. Proust, for example, appears through various lenses, fleetingly, in 1704, apropos of Antoine Galland's translation of "The Thousand & One Nights"; in 1898, in conjunction w/ the Dreyfus affair; in 1905, on the occasion of the law on the separation of church & state; in 1911, in relation to Gide & their different treatments of homosexuality; & at his death in 1922. Without attempting to cover every author, work, & cultural development since the Serments de Strasbourg in 842, this history succeeds in being both informative & critical about the more than 1,000 years it describes. The contributors offer us a chance to appreciate not only French culture but also the major critical positions in literary studies today. Authoritative, lively, & highly readable, "A New History of French Literature" is essential reading for all engaged in the study of French culture & for all who are interested in it. * HIGHEST PRAISE: "This grandly imagined & executed history of French literature is without precedent in any language. Here are many of the best contemporary critics & theorists, writing w/ vivid originality, always in a personal accent. This volume is a triumph of editorial & critical intelligence." -Richard Poirier, Editor, Raritan Quarterly * By far the best single-volume guide in English to the French literary tradition." -Malcolm Bowie, University of London * SHIPPING: MNEMOSYNE carefully wraps, labels & custom-packages this fine book for FREE domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL or USPS PRIORITY MAIL for a below-cost additional fee & via USPS FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL AIRMAIL to international destinations at our posted rates.
