Product Description
Literatures brings together all the lectures given by Vladimir Nabokov between 1941 and 1958 in several American universities where he taught European literature. In addition to two essays, there are two essays, Good readers and good writers and The art of literature and common sense, original and powerful reflections and analyzes devoted to the works of Jane Austen, Dickens, Flaubert, Stevenson, Proust, Kafka, Joyce, as well as those of his Russian compatriots Gogol, Turgenev, Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, Chekhov and Gorky. Finally, this volume offers a long study, just as iconoclastic, of Cervantes' Don Quixote.
Dismissing most of the accepted ideas about these masterpieces, Nabokov affirms with superb, humor and irony his own conception of literature: rejection of historical, sociological or psychological approaches (Freud, the Viennese charlatan, is constantly the target of his sarcasm), supremacy of structure, style, detail and the arrangement of details between them. Caress the details, the divine details, he thunders from his pulpit. And again: Literature is invention. Fiction is fiction. To call a story a true story 'is an insult to both art and truth. Every great writer is a great illusionist. Preface to this edition, Cécile Guilbert writes: What does Nabokov a priori generously dispense to his students? No less than the cream of literature, the critical means of recognizing it and enjoying it.
A gift in the sense of talent 'like an offering', generous and necessarily aristocratic. sociological or psychological (Freud, the Viennese charlatan, is constantly the target of his sarcasm), supremacy of structure, style, detail and the arrangement of details between them.
