The Strange M. Proust
Author: Andre Benhaim
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351540319
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 151
Book Description
The strange M. Proust - the narrator, the author, and the embodiment of A la Recherche du Temps perdu - is now so canonical a writer that his very strangeness is easily overlooked. His book made of other books, his epic composed of extraordinary miniatures, his orderly structure where every law is subverted, his chronology where time can be undone and his geography where places can superimpose: in these, and many other ways, Proust continues to astonish even readers who have engaged with him for their entire careers. In this book, arising from the Princeton symposium of 2006, major critics come together to offer provocative readings of a work which is at the same time classical and unusual, French and foreign, familiar and strange. The book is dedicated to the memory of Malcolm Bowie (1943-2007), whose keynote address was one of his last major lectures. Other contributors include David Ellison, Anne Simon, Eugene Nicole, Joseph Brami, Raymonde Coudert, Christie McDonald, Michael Wood and Antoine Compagnon.

Escape from Grief Prison

ISBN: 1638146225
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
In the prison of your soul Fear and grief may take control. Oppressive as they both may be Allow the truth to set you free. A compelling love story, the harsh reality of earthly loss, and evidence of the extraordinary power of healing fill these pages, laced with hope and promise. Written by first-time author Gail Norwood, this true story erupts with both the stunning beauty and the depths of sadness that constitute our lives—all our lives, not only those who have recently lost a loved one. It is an intimate reflection on loss, which we all have, and healing, which we all need. Our losses are as different and unique as each of us, but many of the fundamental strategies to help us cope are universal. These nurturing truths are there to guide us, comfort us, and encourage us to live again. An unexpected sentence to Grief Prison is a portal to the dark side of bereavement. In this bleak midwinter of our soul, we are detained in sullen captivity. It is solitary confinement, a lonely internment where we are held against our will. But can we escape? Can we escape to a good grief, one that is healthy, productive, and enlightening? The keys to good grief can open the lock binding us to this cruel incarceration. One key is recognizing our choices and keeping our balance. Another reminds us to practice acceptance and letting go. Gratitude fills us with joy as we rise to our higher selves and cherish our sacred present moment. The light in the darkness guides us each day as we relearn the eternal lesson of death and rebirth, loss and renewal. Embrace these keys to healing and feel the freedom!
