Die Karlamagnús-saga I Und Ihre Altfranzösische Vorlage
By: Beckmann, Gustav Adolf
Published by: Max Niemeyer Verlag
The 13th century Old Norse Karlamagnús-Saga, a monumental biography of Charlemagne from translated and adapted French Caroline epics such as the Chanson de Roland, is a fascinating example of intensive reception at a distance. Its first branch appears to pre-empt the whole in a compressed form, and has thus been puzzling scholars for more than a century. This study is the first to illuminate the circumstances surrounding the genesis of its French model, and a running commentary allows the present-day reader to approach the text (even without a knowledge of Old Norse).

Distant Voices Still Heard
By: O'Brien, John; Quainton, Malcolm
Published by: Liverpool University Press
The aim of this book is to introduce the modern student to readings of French Renaissance literature, drawing on the perspectives of contemporary literary theories. The volume is organized by paired readings of five major sixteenth-century French writers, with interpretations covering, among others, structuralism, semiotics, feminism and psychoanalysis. Linking these interpretations is a constant interest in problems such as the role of the reader, the nature of the text and the question of gender. The Introduction contextualizes the encounter between literary theory and Renaissance texts by using the contributions as pivotal points in the development of critical thinking about this period in early modern literature. All foreign language quotations are translated into English, and the book is intended to be of practical interest to a wide range of readers, from modern linguists to those studying critical theory, comparative literature or cultural history.

Essaying Montaigne
By: O'Neill, John
Published by: Liverpool University Press
John ONeill reads Montaignes Essays from their central principle of friendship as a communicative and pedagogical practice operative in society, literature and politics. The friendship between Montaigne and La Boétie was ruled neither by plenitude nor lack but by a capacity for recognition and transitivity. As an essayist Montaigne is an exemplary practitioner of a technique of difference and recognition that puts all certainties of history, philosophy and culture in the balance of weighted comparison. The essayist reveals how every absolute subjectivity or authority is shaken by its internal weakness once we move inside the contrastive structure of domination in politics, gender and race. ONeills reading of the Essays strives to be faithful to the phenomenology of their embodied practices of reading-to-write-to re-read and re-write. From this standpoint he engages the principal critical readings of the Essays over the last century that have examined with great brilliance their history, structure and psychology. Whether the structure is evolutionary, structuralist, Marxist or psychoanalytical, ONeill provides close readings of Montaignes literary critics. By bringing to bear the ethico-critical practice of essaying to resist the subjection of the Essays to dominant criticism, ONeill reminds readers that Montaignes appeal is in how he survived bloody cultural war with a balance of modesty and tolerance, invoking compromise where others practice violence.

Exile and Post-1946 Haitian Literature
By: Munro, Martin
Published by: Liverpool University Press
Haitian writing is one of the richest literary traditions in the Americas, and yet is little known outside of Haiti. This book is an introduction to this literature, focusing on the period from 1946 to the present, a time in which exile has become the dominant theme in Haitian writing. Reading post-1946 Haitian writing as a literature of exile, the chapters analyze key novels by the most important figures of each generation: Jacques-Stephen Alexis, René Depestre, Émile Ollivier, Dany Laferrière, and Edwidge Danticat. The emphasis is on close, detailed readings, and on understanding the particular, the personal, and the testimonial intimacy that characterizes exiled writing. Martin Munro also considers Haitian literature in the context of broader exiled writing from the Caribbean and elsewhere, and argues that the story of Haitian post-1946 fiction is one that demands to be re-read, re-interpreted, and relayed to a wider, global audience that is only just awakening to the long-held concerns of Haitis writers.
