Coetzee’s Jesus novels, arguing for the relevance of the fact that it is Benengeli, the fictional Moorish historian – and not Cervantes – who is presented as the author of the Spanish novel. This is first explored in relation to the analogy that The Childhood of Jesus (2013) makes between authorship and paternity, along with the depiction of the relationship between authors and characters as one of temporary, non-substantial stepfatherhood. The disruption of Don Quixote’s authorship/paternity also traverses the trilogy’s questioning of linguistic origins, and concern with linguistic processes of estrangement, displacement and irony. Finally, Cervantes’s absence in Coetzee’s novels is examined in relation to David’s act of trust and blind belief in the character of Don Quixote, a response to both the performative power of words and the capacity of literary characters to outstrip their original authors.KEYWORDS: CoetzeeThe Childhood of JesusThe Death of JesusCervantesDon Quixote AcknowledgementSpecial thanks to Derek Attridge for providing me with insightful comments on a previous version of this essay.Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 López and Wiegandt provide a fairly comprehensive picture of the main literary traditions and also individual writers that Coetzee’s work has been associated with.2 Hayes, J.M.

Along Coetzee’s writings, Defoe is associated with Robinson Crusoe, but also with other works such as Roxana or A Tour Through the Whole Island of Great Britain, whereas Dostoevsky is associated with Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov or Demons. As regards Cervantine intertextuality in Coetzee, it involves – up to now – one single work, at least as long as explicit intertextual references are concerned – Don Quixote – with a special focus on Don Quixote, the character, as it is indeed the case in the Jesus trilogy.13 Coetzee, Childhood of Jesus, 104.

In the copying of Sir Gawayn and the Carl of Carlisle, some scholars have identified two scribes, others just one. This paper analyses different language levels within this poem with the objective of determining the likelihoods of having one or two scribes for this section of the codex. This is the first study to offer a detailed comparison between ff. 12r-22v and 23r-6r and other stints undoubtedly copied by the same scribe of 12r-22v. It presents data extracted from the manuscript which ultimately reveal different scribal patterns in the poem with respect to palaeographical and orthographic habits, although these do not signal dialectal differences in the localisation of the fragments.KEYWORDS: NLW Brogyntyn ii.1ScribesOrthographyPalaeographyDialects AcknowledgementsMy deepest gratitude to Keith Williamson and Edurne Garrido-Anes who have patiently read earlier drafts of this paper and made invaluable suggestions.

However, she is less known for her non-fiction writing. This article examines a “comment” from Richardson’s column, “Comments by a Layman”, in the journal, The Dental Record. I argue that in the piece “A Liberal Education”, Richardson articulates a reformist socialism and sets herself apart from other modernists on the issue of education in that she wanted to reform actually existing institutions rather than conceive of new forms of education. In looking at Richardson’s writings as a form of what Pierre Bourdieu called “position-taking”, I seek to show the importance of her socialist non-fiction.KEYWORDS: Dorothy RichardsonNon-FictionModernismThe Dental RecordEducationPolitics Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 See Parsons, Theorists of the Modernist Novel.2 See Richardson, ‘Pointed Roofs’.3 For studies on modernist non-fiction, see Edbury and Fraser, Joyce’s Non-Fiction Writings; Lounsberry, Virginia Woolf, the War Without; and Cuddy-Keane, Virginia Woolf, the Intellectual. Only some of Richardson’s short stories and autobiographical sketches have been published in their own volume. See Richardson, Journey to Paradise.

This article investigates the orality of Carpentaria, which stages “oral” narrators who speak differently to Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal readerships. First, using Bakhtin’s notion of “speech genre”, the article explores why Wright creates these two narrative layers. Second, it investigates the language use and tone of voice in the framing narrative that addresses non-Indigenous readers. Third, it looks closely at Wright’s linguistic experimentation in the embedded narrative, creating multiple oral effects through language and mobilising the storytelling dynamics of performance, spontaneity, rhythms and mnemonics. Finally, it discusses how her creative use of orality plays off and with its Western literary conceptions and enacts cross-cultural communication between the two readerships.KEYWORDS: Oralityorality in literatureaboriginal storytellingspeech genreCarpentaria Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Van Toorn, Writing Never Arrives Naked, 158.2 Sefton-Rowston, “Hope at the End of the World,” 367.3 Van Toorn, “Indigenous Texts and Narratives,” 29.4 Wright, “Politics of writing,” 13.5 Holgate, “Unsettling Narratives,” 634.6 Heiss, Minter, and Jose, eds.
