Challenging traditional interpretations, she argues that Proust’s magnum opus is not a melancholic text, but one that records the dynamic time of change and the complex vitality of the real. Situating Proust’s novel within a modernism of money, and broadening the exploration through references to cultural events and visual technologies (commercial photography, photojournalism, pornography, the regulation of prostitution, the Panama Scandal, and the Dreyfus Affair), this study reveals that Proust’s subject is not the esthetic recuperation of loss but rather the adventure of living in time, on both the individual and the social level, at a concrete historical moment.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBAuthor: Suzanne GuerlacGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityTopic: BiographyRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
