Produktinformationen zu „Rewriting the Hero and the Quest “
The book applies the principles of textual interpretation, literary theory, comparative literature, archetypal criticism, intertextuality, and thematology to reveal the ways in which Louis de Bernières in Captain Corelli's Mandolin rethinks and rewrites the monomyth of the hero and the quest to convey the deconstruction of the postmodern ideals.
Klappentext zu „Rewriting the Hero and the Quest “
Although Louis de Bernières is a famous and important contemporary novelist, and his work Captain Corelli's Mandolin has been translated and sold all over the world as a best-seller, there are few academic studies that focus methodologically and theoretically on it. The book attempts to partially overcome this handicap by focusing on various thematic and structural aspects which have been practically ignored so far by this line of criticism. It targets experts and students in literary studies whose concerns are ancient myths and their contemporary revival and reimagining, and who are familiar with goals and methods of myth criticism and archetypal critical discourse, and especially with their current postmodern and postmodernist perspectives.
