It reads Burke and Kant alongside postmodern discourses on the sublime, and Wordsworth, De Quincey and Mary Shelley in relation to temporality and materiality in Romanticism, and considers 'modernist' inflections of the sublime in T.S. Eliot, Virginia Woolf and Djuna Barnes in relation to the themes of disjunction and excess in modernity. The author examines the postmodern revisiting of the sublime in Thomas Pynchon, D.M Thomas and Toni Morrison, and draws on Lyotard's reading of the sublime as an aesthetic of the avant-garde and as a singular and disruptive 'event', to argue that the sublime in its postmodern and contemporary forms encodes an anxious but affirmative relationship to the ironies of temporality and history." -- Publisher website. 650 0 $a Sublime, The, in literature. 650 0 $a English literature $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a American literature $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Romanticism. 650 0 $a Postmodernism (Literature) 650 7 $a American literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807113 650 7 $a English literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00911989 650 7 $a Literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00999953 650 7 $a Postmodernism (Literature) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01073181 650 7 $a Romanticism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01100133 650 7 $a Sublime, The. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01136594 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171227032029.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826092146.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=68B8375A4DE711E4A85DE8D9DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
