Description

This Routledge Revivals edition explores the poetics of the Romantic Kunstlerinroman (female artist novel) and its metafictional engagement with the aesthetics of the sublime. Originally published in 2002, the study traces the tradition from Madame de Stael's "Corinne ou L'Italie" through modernist masterworks including H.D.'s "Palimpsest", Christa Wolf's "Nachdenken uber Christa T." and Marguerite Duras' "L'Amant". The book conducts detailed textual analysis in dialogue with major philosophical and literary thinkers including Kant, Freud, Lacan, Cixous and Derrida. Each novel is examined for its generic affiliations and contribution to understanding how female artist narratives interrogate aesthetic sublimity. This is an essential resource for scholars of Romantic literature, modernism, feminist literary criticism and aesthetic philosophy seeking to understand the intersection of gender, artistic creation and the sublime in European literary tradition.

Key Features

The Kunstlerinroman study traces metafictional discourse on the sublime from Madame de Stael's foundational text through 20th-century modernist novels.

Detailed readings of H.D.'s "Palimpsest", Christa Wolf's "Nachdenken uber Christa T." and Marguerite Duras' "L'Amant" ground theoretical analysis in specific literary texts.

The book engages major philosophical frameworks including Kantian aesthetics, psychoanalytic theory from Freud and Lacan, and post-structuralist thought from Cixous and Derrida.

This Routledge Revivals edition makes an influential 2002 study accessible to contemporary scholars and students of literary criticism and aesthetic theory.
