Reconsidering Borges through three of his most famous stories—“The Garden of Forking Paths,” “A Survey of the Works of Herbert Quain,” and “Pierre Menard, Author of the Quixote”—reveals a philosophy of reading that, in classic Borges fashion, doubles as a philosophy of ethics. Understanding these philosophies as one and the same makes possible a fresh view of Borges’s aesthetic games and his interest in human interaction.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45561594","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His 1962 novel Mother Night is no exception; even Vonnegut scholars tend to emphasize the book’s absurdity and the cartoonish nature of its characters. But previously neglected historical background reveals parallels between Vonnegut’s characters and specific real-life American fascists active in the 1930s and 40s. Mother Night engages deeply and meaningfully with American history as it exposes the bona fide danger of a virulently fascist and white supremacist underbelly in America that did not disappear with the defeat of the Nazis in 1945.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42597604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such luck has a key bearing on the moral intelligibility of plot and character in Lord Jim. This is a novel that supports two sides of a paradox: morality should and should not be influenced by the vagaries of luck. There is no obvious resolution to this double vision in Conrad and it leads him to question the coherence of morality as a general system. He also doubts—however paradoxically—its basic fairness. If luck is all-pervasive, then justice itself is unjust.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42475879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

What draws McEwan to Virginia Woolf and James Joyce is not simply modernist form per se, but its secularizing potential, though one McEwan sees as incompletely realized. McEwan’s novel Saturday (2005) completes the secularizing work of modernist form by grounding it in materialist, brain-based cognition, a reading of the novel supported by a genetic view of McEwan’s notebooks and drafts. Saturday, and McEwan’s fiction generally, emerge as much more stridently secular than recent studies of his work’s sincerity and commitment suggest. Identifying this set of affiliations across the modern and contemporary novel further develops the form’s secular genealogy.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46522485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two months before Conrad finished Lord Jim, his publisher informed him that it was financially unviable to publish the three works together. To date, Conrad’s intended trilogy remains unpublished as a homogenous book, and underexplored. Critics have only given the structure of the trilogy passing mention. Read as a composite novel in the order Conrad intended, all three works offer a developing perspective on how steam affected merchant sailing. The placement of “Youth” before Lord Jim contrasts the sea-life of light literature with the grimy reality of industrial seafaring. As if Conrad intended to create a self-reflective contrast in style and genre, Heart of Darkness and the first half of Lord Jim are framed by “Youth” and the Patusan romance, which respectively begin and end the trilogy.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44141531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analyzing the novel and Stein’s studies of others’ behavior through the conceptual lens of linguistic anthropology shows that her aesthetic idiom invokes social forms by emphasizing certain poetic structures of everyday discourse. More specifically, Stein composes Americans around a principle of diagrammatic signification whereby resemblances between people in terms of “ kinds” or “natures” are projected from ritual structures of interaction. For Stein, then, intelligible kinds are a cultural product of repetitive semiotic activity. Recognizing the social and historical currency of the novel’s non-denotational modes of meaning shifts the conversation about her writing further toward a consideration of how its linguistic indeterminacy contributes to a critique of normative social forms.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46128999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, there are texts that enable expression despite this difficulty. They endow expansive, elusive concepts of loss with worthy articulation. Putting trauma theory in conversation with ordinary language philosophy illuminates how such moments become conceivable.

Literature is therefore able to create new forms of utterance from which ordinary meaning gains a purchase on the extra-ordinary.","PeriodicalId":44453,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF MODERN LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47557609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
