Its major achievement is that it offers Nabokov readers and critics the opportunity to witness emerging topics and debates in Nabokov studies. Reading Transitional Nabokov allows one to understand the mutations of the field: older trends of Nabokov criticism are reassessed, reshaped or left behind, new directions become manifest. The volume definitely proves the vitality of Nabokov criticism in an international context. Academics and critics working in the United Kingdom, the United States, France, New Zealand and Canada gathered around the main topic of the volume, “transitional Nabokov”. The adjective has plethoric meanings, thus allowing one to explore various facets of Nabokov’s work and personality: frontiers between art and science, between the verbal and non verbal, between the arts, betweeen biography and fiction, extending its meaning to the act of writing and the act of reading alike. The choice of such a topic, both vast and relevant, invites one to contemplate the hybridities, interferences, passages, and ultimately the fundamental dynamism that characterizes Nabokov’s work and the critical reception of his work.","PeriodicalId":110136,"journal":{"name":"Nabokov Studies","volume":" 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132123444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nabokov’s ‘Homework in Paris’: Stéphane Mallarmé, Bend Sinister, and the Death of the Author 纳博科夫的《在巴黎的家庭作业》:《斯特姆萨芬·马拉玛丽》、《险恶的弯》和《作者之死》

Recourse to Eden: Tracing the Roots of Nabokov’s Adamic Themes 求助于伊甸园:探寻纳博科夫亚当主题的根源

Link","doi":"10.1353/NAB.2009.0002","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/NAB.2009.0002","url":null,"abstract":"This essay examines both the breadth and the depth of Nabokov's engagement with the biblical myth of Eden and its many resonant, interrelated themes: divine creation, Adamic man, paradisal love, diabolic temptation, exile and loss, the persistence of memory, and the desire to regain—either in this world or the next—one form or another of Edenic bliss. While focusing principally on the \"roots\" of Nabokov's Adamic and Edenic themes as they appear in several early poems and short stories, in the autobiography, Speak, Memory, and in his first novel, Mary, this essay also argues more broadly that the biblical myth of a lost paradise (and the subsequent echoes of this biblical tradition in later representational art and literature) continued to influence and inform Nabokov's writings significantly throughout his entire career, particularly in such later masterworks as Lolita and Ada. Since the author regularly dismissed all claims of \"influence\" upon his works, this essay aims chiefly at establishing and exploring, with fresh appreciation, Nabokov's substantial understanding of, and sustained intertextual reliance upon, biblical narrative and the extended tradition (Dante, Milton, Marvell, etc.) of Edenic paradise and Adamic fall.","PeriodicalId":110136,"journal":{"name":"Nabokov Studies","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125264160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
