Enacting perception : the contemporary lyrical novel
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- My dissertation studies the hybrid genre of the lyrical novel primarily in the post-1980 period. Considering lyrical novels a potential praxis, it argues that lyricism in narrative can result in a reader's experience resembling a process of perception that is enactive. I discuss Julio Llamazares' La lluvia amarilla, Horacio Castellanos Moya's El asco, Yoko Tawada's Wo Europe Anfängt?, W.G. Sebald's Austerlitz, and Abdelkébir Khatibi's Amour bilingue as contemporary lyrical novels that inquire into the limits of reality and fiction, into memory, self, and poetic language.
