F.R. Leavis

Michael Bell

Routledge
1988
nidottu
First published in 1988. Leavis's examples and preoccupations still largely underlie the teaching of English literature in the universities and he remains the most substantial embodiment of the liberal humanist conception of criticism with its insistence on a 'canon' of on personal judgement within a literary tradition. Hence while recent theorists have rejected his methods, he remains the most potent single influence on the practical teaching of literature. This book locates Leavis within the critical tradition, suggests whence he derived his characteristic commitments and rhetoric, and assesses his limitations in relation to his continuing value.

Literature, Modernism and Myth

Literature, Modernism and Myth

Michael Bell

Cambridge University Press

The use of myth in Modernist literature is a misleadingly familiar theme. Joyce's appropriation of Homer's Odyssey and Eliot's of Frazer's Golden Bough are, like Lawrence's primitivism or Yeats's nationalist folklore, attempts to discover an underlying metaphysic in an increasingly fragmented world. In Literature, Modernism and Myth Michael Bell also examines the relationship of myth and modernism to postmodernism. Myth, Bell shows, is inherently flexible; it was used to justify Pound's totalizing vision of society which eventually descended into fascism, and the liberal, ironic vision of human existence Joyce and Mann expressed. Those theorists who present myth as another form of mystification, a search for false origins, ignore its use by modernists to emphasise the ultimate contingency of all values. This anti-foundational element, Bell claims, enables myth to act as a corrective to the claims of ideological critique. Bell shows how postmodern concerns with political and social responsibility, and the role literature plays in formulating this, have in fact been inherited from modernism.

D. H. Lawrence: Language and Being

Cambridge University Press

D. H. Lawrence once wrote that 'we have no language for the feelings'. The remark testifies to the struggle in his novels to express his sophisticated understanding of the nature of being through the intransigent medium of language. Michael Bell argues that Lawrence's unfashionable status stems from a failure to perceive within his informal expression the nature and complexity of his ontological vision. He traces the evolution of the struggle for its articulation through the novels, and looks at the way in which Lawrence himself made it a conscious theme in his writing. Embracing in this argument Lawrence's failures as a writer, his rhetorical stridency and also his primitivist extremism, Michael Bell creates a powerful and fresh sense of his true importance as a novelist.

First published in 1972, this books examines the subject of primitivism through the study of the work of a number of major writers, including D. H. Lawrence, Herman Melville, Joseph Conrad, T. S. Eliot and James Joyce. It looks at the variety of definitions and uses of primitivism and how the idea has changed over time as well as with each writer. In doing so, it is argued that primitivism denotes, or arises from, a sense of crisis in civilization and it is born of the interplay between the civilized self and the desire to reject or transform it. This book will be of interest to those studying modern literature.

A Quest from West to East - The Grand American Citadels
The great winter of our time had descended and an eternal, overcast gloom strangled the skies of Northern England (as opposed to the slightly less overcast gloom of summer). My wife and I had spent many years on the road but the cries of pensions, mortgages and children had grown louder as we approached our 30th year. Not wanting to succumb to an existence of watching Come Dine with Me on repeat and waiting for the weekend to reappear, we decided to ignore the social norms of Western Society and book an adventure which would finally include entrance into the realms of Northern America. Our time had come. Suddenly the gloom dispersed. Palm tree lined streets, food portions that could literally feed the entire world and the glitz and glamour of the Hollywood walk of fame. We had arrived in Los Angeles. The energy, the sunshine and the eclectic mix of cultures were immediately hypnotic and this was just day one. We would cross vast wilderness regions, enter great musical kingdoms like New Orleans and Memphis, and almost go deaf from excessively loud voices. No adventure is straightforward and devilry often waits in the most unsuspecting place, but fear not, I was traveling with my wife, so there was always someone to blame me when things went wrong.

Applauded as a witty and eccentric pioneer of Canadian poetry, Joe Rosenblatt is also a talented visual artist. Though several books have included Rosenblatt's black and white sketches to supplement his poetry, The Voluptuous Gardener is the first book to celebrate Joe Rosenblatt as an artist in his own right. The voluptuous gardener may well be a gardener in Eden, surrounded by the pleasure and innocence of a new world, but also dangerous temptation. The garden is populated with gentle beasts and the beast within us, sleepy cats and the brutal world of insects. An introduction by Michael Bell outlines the evolution of Rosenblatt's artwork, highlighting the archetypal nature of his images and the uneasy mixture of innocence and perversity.
