I suggest that one reason for this undesirable gap between theory and practice is that, for literary scholars, the notion of intention itself is poorly understood. Authorial intention is thought of as single, simple, rationally generated, and preexisting in the author's mind rather than the multiple, complex, and process-based phenomenon that it is. In this essay I provide a bottom-up account of intention with the aim of dispelling this misunderstanding.","PeriodicalId":51912,"journal":{"name":"PHILOSOPHY AND LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/phl.2021.0004","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42096928","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}

If life is not itself an action, then life has no end or point that is like that of an action, and thus, a life cannot be judged or evaluated in the way we can judge or evaluate an action. This puts pressure on various assumptions about life and ethical reasoning in the philosophy of action, ethics, and literary studies, and leads to a different understanding of ethics.","PeriodicalId":51912,"journal":{"name":"PHILOSOPHY AND LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/phl.2021.0014","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43194755","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}

To inspire confidence in questionable sources, I argue, authors sometimes take advantage of readers' cognitive biases. This article explains how three rhetorical devices—maxims, illustrative anecdotes, and speculative statements—can appeal to these predispositions so as to make dubious claims seem credible. Drawing examples from Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time, I illustrate how these stylistic elements can lead readers to trust the narrator more than they rationally should, and I propose that these tactics are essential to our enjoyment of the novel.","PeriodicalId":51912,"journal":{"name":"PHILOSOPHY AND LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/phl.2021.0000","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47127708","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}

The essay studies two experimental texts: one that eschews the traditional means of communicating psychological character development in order to explore the world outside the human (Alain Robbe-Grillet's Le Miroir qui revient), and another that deliberately invests in the representation of marginalized persons as an ethical imperative (Assia Djebar's L'Amour, la fantasia). This confluence suggests that perspective is an unalienable aspect of human subjectivity, in literature as in life.","PeriodicalId":51912,"journal":{"name":"PHILOSOPHY AND LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/phl.2021.0012","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49144928","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}

During this process, he comes to recognize that his life has been self-absorbed and trivial; such a recognition is, however, the first step on the path to a Christian-style self-abnegation and redemption. So runs the traditional interpretation. Against this, I argue that Ivan's perception and deliberation were distorted by \"autobiographical despair\": the tendency to downplay the genuine meanings of one's life, meanings that were also central to the dying person's identity. I argue that autobiographical despair is much more dangerous than the more familiar prospective despair.","PeriodicalId":51912,"journal":{"name":"PHILOSOPHY AND LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/phl.2021.0013","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48004575","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}

And while story form can help unify a messy life, when it comes to a messy character, we may need something like the form of a poem. Could we model our self-conception, then, on a work like Shakespeare's Sonnet 35? In finding deep-going unity—and even bittersweet beauty—beneath surface-level ambivalence, Sonnet 35 arguably offers a perfect formal model, pointing the way to a transfiguration, through art, of intractable internal conflict.","PeriodicalId":51912,"journal":{"name":"PHILOSOPHY AND LITERATURE","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/phl.2021.0015","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41260311","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}
