Five Fictions in Search of Truth
Author: Myra Jehlen
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400828910
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
Fiction, far from being the opposite of truth, is wholly bent on finding it out, and writing novels is a way to know the real world as objectively as possible. In Five Fictions in Search of Truth, Myra Jehlen develops this idea through readings of works by Flaubert, James, and Nabokov. She invokes Proust's famous search for lost memory as the exemplary literary process, which strives, whatever its materials, for a true knowledge. In Salammbô, Flaubert digs up Carthage; in The Ambassadors, James plumbs the examined life and touches at its limits; while in Lolita, Nabokov traces a search for truth that becomes a trespass. In these readings, form and style emerge as fiction's means for taking hold of reality, which is to say that they are as epistemological as they are aesthetic, each one emerging by way of the other. The aesthetic aspects of a literary work are just so many instruments for exploring a subject, and the beauty and pleasure of a work confirm the validity of its account of the world. For Flaubert, famously, a beautiful sentence was proven true by its beauty. James and Nabokov wrote on the same assumption--that form and style were at once the origin and the confirmation of a work's truth. In Five Fictions in Search of Truth, Jehlen shows, moreover, that fiction's findings are not only about the world but immanent within it. Literature works concretely, through this form, that style, this image, that word, seeking a truth that is equally concrete. Writers write--and readers read--to discover an incarnate, secular knowledge, and in doing so they enact a basic concurrence between literature and science. Some images inside the book are unavailable due to digital copyright restrictions.

Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
A bright future seemed assured for eighteen-year-old Clee Bixler. He'd attend Ole Miss, marry his high school sweetheart and practice law in his hometown of Morristown, Mississippi. That was before the night of June 9, 1991, when the death of his errant father leaves the family penniless. While Clee and his mother work, his younger brother Bobby becomes a magnet for trouble. Bobby disappears the same night that bonds worth $200,000 are stolen. Clee fears the incidents are connected. Inadvertently, Clee brings suspicion upon himself with severe consequences. What happens during the long search for Bobby challenges Clee's faith, patience and sense of fairness. It becomes a search for truth, justice and the strength to forgive those who have wronged him. Memorable characters, some dangerous, provide situations rich with human emotion. Two beautiful women vie for his love. Each has had his heart. His task is to separate true love from fantasy.

Book Description
There are Catholics and non-Catholics alike who take it as truth that the Catholic Church is no place for a self-respecting, intelligent woman. Authors Jennifer Ferrara and Patricia Sodano Ireland disagree. Both were ordained Lutheran ministers. Both became Roman Catholics. Women in Search of the Truth tells their stories and the stories of more than a dozen other educated, articulate, accomplished women who found fulfillment in the Church. While the contributors to this book come from a wide variety of religious, ethnic, socio-economic, and professional backgrounds, these firsthand accounts share a common theme. All experienced a sense of restlessness and profound feelings of unfulfillment, until they finally came to rest in the bosom of the Church.
