Indeed, the corpus of Beckett's works that we read today has little in common with the Beckett canon of just a decade ago. In less than ten years, a textual revolution has taken place and it is still going on. It combines the discovery of unpublished notes and manuscripts, their digital editions, and new critical approaches attempting to take stock of a fast evolving corpus. The publication of the four volumes of the Letters of Samuel Beckett that began in 2009 has brought a host of hitherto unknown details about Beckett's readings, meetings, loves and interests. Daniel Gunn has calculated that Beckett wrote an average of one letter a day during his active career, and he condenses in this book's pages the many lessons one can derive from them. The genetic version of texts like The Unnamable published in 2014 as part of the "Beckett Digital Manuscript Project" has modified our interpretation of this difficult but groundbreaking novel. The 2012 publication of the Collected Poems has doubled the number of poetic texts available, whether by adding drafts, unpublished texts, or different versions of some poems in two languages. Marjorie Perloff, who has defended for a long time the idea that Beckett was primarily a poet, will examine these lyrical treasures in a new key. Mark Nixon had given us a detailed analysis of the German Diaries 1936-37 in 2011, covering Beckett's fateful trip to Nazi Germany. Here, he covers a broader array of unpublished texts"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Digitizing Beckett / Dirk van Hulle -- "All the variants" / Mark Nixon -- Beckett's letters: the edition and the corpus / Daniel Gunn -- The evolution of Beckett's poetry / Marjorie Perloff -- Beckett's critique of literature / John Bolin -- Beckett, political memory, and the sense of history / Emilie Morin -- Samuel Beckett as contemporary artist / Judith Wilkinson -- Beckett, radio and the voice / Llewellyn Brown -- Beckett's queer art of failure / Calvin Thomas -- Beckett, nerve theory and literary form / Ulrika Maude -- Beckett's disabled language / Laura Salisbury -- Beckett and mathematics / Baylee Brits -- Beckett's bilingual explorations / Nadia Louar -- Waiting for Godot among the prisoners / Lance Duerfahrd. 600 10 $a Beckett, Samuel, $d 1906-1989 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Beckett, Samuel, $d 1906-1989. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00035621 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 700 1 $a RabateÌ, Jean-Michel, $d 1949- $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n84148242 830 0 $a Twenty-first-century critical revisions. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2019112161 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217022233.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5C991B6A209B11EABA878C2E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
