Book Description
Though Honore d'Urfe/s L'Astree (1607-28) and Charles Sorel's Le berger extravagant (1627-28) use similar imagery of death, entombment, and renewal, Hinds (French language and literature, Indiana U.) argues that they use them to different ends. Indeed, he says, the latter is a parody of the first, and between them lies a watershed between romanticism and the reaction against it. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Tyssot de Patot and His Work 1655–1738
Author: Aubrey Rosenberg
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9401746923
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
Although the novel, V oyages el avantures de] aques Masse, caused some thing of a stir during the first half of the eighteenth century, its author, Simon Tyssot de Patot (1655-1738), remained largely unknown in his lifetime, and it is only in this century that he has been recognized as one of the countless soldiers in the vast army of philosophes that assaulted the bastions of religious, political and sodallife in Europe of the late seven 1 teenth and early eighteenth centuries. Tyssot was a Huguenot who lived most of his life in Holland where he pursued a career as professor of mathematics in the sodal and cultural 1 Tyssot and his work seem to have been first brought to the attention of modem writers by the German critics during their investigation of the type of desert island or robinsonade literature that preceded and followed Defoe's Robinson Crusoe. The earliest reference I have found occurs in A. Kippenberg, Robinson in Deutschland bis zur Insel Felsenburg (1713-43), Hanover, 1892, pp. 66-67. Tyssot's name and work appear to have been first linked with the development of socialism in A. Lichtenberger, Le Socialisme au XVIIIe siecle, Paris, 1895, p. 44. Tyssot's Voyages et avantures de]aques Masse was discussed for its literary merits in A. LeBreton, Le Roman au dix huitieme siecle, Paris, 1898. LeBreton did not know that Tyssot was the author.

A Taste for the Foreign
Author: Ellen R. Welch
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 1611490634
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
A Taste for the Foreign examines foreignness as a crucial aesthetic category for the development of prose fiction from Jacques Amyot's 1547 translation of The Ethiopian Story to Antoine Galland's early eighteenth-century version of The Thousand and One Nights. Concentrating on the most successful examples of some of the most important sub-genres of prose fiction in the long seventeenth century—heroic romances, shorter urban novels, fictional memoirs, and extraordinary voyages—the book examines how these types of fiction creatively appropriate the scientific or documentary forms of writing that claimed to inform the French public about exotic places.
