Subjects NotatHome: Forms of the Uncanny in the Contemporary French Novel: Emmanuel Carrere, Marie Ndiaye, Eugne Savitzkaya (F,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Subjects Notathome is the first booklength study of the concept of the uncanny (Das Unheimliche) in the context of French literature. It explores the ways in which certain contemporary French novelists are exploiting the themes, imagery and dynamics of the uncanny to generate a repertoire of narrative tactics for the portrayal of the chez soi. Through an analysis of nine novels by Marie NDiaye, Eugne Savitzkaya and Emmanuel Carrre, the author reveals a developing tendency within current writing to reappropriate figures of the strange the double, intellectual uncertainty, the fragmented body, the spectral, the haunted house in order to represent the familiar spaces of the home, the family, the self and the everyday. This problematic is situated with respect to tendencies in presentday French writing, with the uncanny being viewed as a particular approach to the contemporary novels inclination to privilege the site of the chez soi. Readings of the literary texts are informed by philosophical, psychoanalytic and literary reinterpretations of the Freudian uncanny, with an emphasis on the historical and contextual evolution of the concept itself.
