Ricoeur asserts the intimacy of narrative with human time, addresses the interweaving of narrative histories and fictions, and extends Augustine's subjective theory of temporality and Aristotle's objective theory of narrative form. Tradition, understood as sedimentation and innovation over successive generations, is a temporal concept that is evident in the Augustinian and Aristotelian roots of Ricoeur's poetics, as it is throughout Paradise Lost. Narrative's intimacy with time casts light on Milton's artistry and its human significance, including his narrator and plot and the metamorphic tradition that informs his Satan.","PeriodicalId":46490,"journal":{"name":"ELH","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89081096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

S. Eliot. Eliot, famously, came to literary criticism from philosophy, having completed a doctorate on the British Idealist F. H. Bradley. However, the broader intellectual context of British Idealism (in which Bradley's voice was but one among many) has attracted little scholarly attention. I argue that Eliot's innovative literary criticism was profoundly shaped by the Kantian strain of British Idealism represented by T. H. Green, Edward Caird, and Henry Jones. In particular, idealism of this stripe relied on a conception of \"personality\" that both resembled and, in key respects, contested the notion of \"impersonality\" central to Eliot's critical program. Examining several of Eliot's most influential early essays, I show how the theory of impersonality, as a precondition of good literature and good criticism alike, develops via an anxious negotiation with idealism—an antagonist everywhere present but nowhere named. As I also show, the principal site of this anxiety became Eliot's relation to the poetry of Robert Browning: a favorite among late nineteenth-century idealists and, as such, an embodiment of aesthetic values Eliot's modernism sought to displace.","PeriodicalId":46490,"journal":{"name":"ELH","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75894327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Her 1899 diary, pasted into Isaac Watts's Logick (1786), contains Woolf's earliest literary compositions. Initially, Woolf selected Watts's book because of its size and binding, but closer examination reveals considerable interaction with Logick. As the first book Woolf made, and her first formal literary experiment, it is significant that the diary responds to, and reacts against, traditional logic. Woolf's early essays and novels continue this agonistic relationship with the logic of Leslie Stephen, G. E. Moore and Bertrand Russell, creating a productive tension that helps shape To the Lighthouse.","PeriodicalId":46490,"journal":{"name":"ELH","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90226284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

And it offers readings of Tristram Shandy and Tom Jones to locate the new historiographic preference at the level of narrative style.

This influence was not only stylistic but also, more importantly, political. By following Joyce's growing fascination with pidgin languages and their formation from the earliest drafts of Finnegans Wake to its published version, one can discern in the work a more coherent, specific, and compelling linguistic and cultural politics than critics have previously noticed within it: an affirmation of provisional and instrumental forms of cross-cultural communication. Pidgins also provide a crucial link between the Wake's political dimension and its philosophical engagement with Giambattista Vico.","PeriodicalId":46490,"journal":{"name":"ELH","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89728881","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hilary Mantel's Wolf Hall (2008), however, embraces the pageantry of Tudor England to interpolate its readers into a collective project of refiguring national history, and the form of the nation itself, as an international process from its inception. The novel's protagonist, Thomas Cromwell, marshals his considerable pan-European bureaucratic power to forge a coherent English nation-state. In rewriting English historiography around such an international practice, Wolf Hall reinvigorates the contemporary historical novel by dismissing claims that national history and globalized perspectives are in tension. Rather, thinking both nationally and globally simultaneously is not only possible, but the only way to understand national history in the first place.","PeriodicalId":46490,"journal":{"name":"ELH","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83010212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Krishnamohan was among the first generation of Bengali men to receive a formal English language education at the Hindu College. These men fashioned themselves as Young Bengal and beef eating became their most demonstrable form of rebellion against Brahminical Hinduism. The Persecuted, Krishnamohan's only play, dramatizes his real-life excommunication by his family for publicly eating and condoning the consumption of beef. I look at The Persecuted alongside its reception, and other Anglo-Indian writings about Young Bengal's gastronomical rebellion. I use the term \"gastro drama\" for Young Bengal's gustatory texts to designate a literary genre that dramatizes dramatic, messy, and difficult forms of gustation. I analyze the gustatory, literary, and linguistic traffics in these gastro dramas to argue that the English-educated Bengali imagines a new masculine identity not as a mimic identity but rather as a liminal one between colonial acculturation and resistance. My essay, therefore, pushes back against Young Bengal's popular conception as colonial \"mimic men\" to instead argue for a more agential form of self-identification and self-representation. By being attentive to gustatory and literary forms, I attempt to imagine a way of analyzing colonial texts that moves beyond extant theoretical frameworks.","PeriodicalId":46490,"journal":{"name":"ELH","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77762587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
