Description
Elizabeth Bowen: A New Perspective on her Theory and Writing. This collection of essays offers a fresh approach to understanding Elizabeth Bowen's significant contribution to twentieth-century literary theory. By exploring her perception of writing and narrative, the contributors move beyond existing ideological categories, such as psychoanalysis or modernism, to reveal the innovative aspects of her work. The eleven chapters present new scholarship on Bowen's inventiveness and unique writing style, examining topics such as language, identity, and the impact of new technologies like the telephone. This book provides a valuable insight into Bowen's experiments in form and content, shedding light on her influence on contemporary literature and literary descendants.
