Javier Marías's Debt to Translation

Javier Marías's Debt to Translation

Gareth J. Wood

Oxford University Press

This is a book about translation and literary influence. It takes as its subject Spain's most important contemporary novelist, Javier Marías (1951-), who worked as a literary translator for a significant portion of his early career. Since then, he has maintained that translation had a crucial impact on the development of his writing style and his literary frame of reference. It examines his claims to the influence of three writers whose works he translated, Laurence Sterne, Sir Thomas Browne, and Vladimir Nabokov. It does so by engaging in close reading of his translations, examining how he meets the linguistic, syntactic, and cultural challenges they present. His prolonged engagement with their prose is then set alongside his own novels and short stories, the better to discern precisely how and in what ways his works have been shaped by their influence and through translation. Hence this study begins by asking why Marías should have turned to translation in the cultural landscape of Spain in the 1970s and how the ideological standpoints that animated his decision affect the way he translates. His translation of Sterne's Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman is set alongside his pseudo-autobiographical novel Negra espalda del tiempo (Dark Back of Time), while his translation of Sir Thomas Browne's Urn Burial is then analysed in tandem with that produced by Jorge Luis Borges and Adolfo Bioy Casares. Subsequent chapters examine how Browne's prose has shaped Marías's thinking on oblivion, posterity, and time. The final chapters offer an analysis of the partial translation and palimpsest of Lolita he undertook in the early 1990s and of his most ambitious novel to date, Tu rostro mañana (Your Face Tomorrow), as a work in which characterization is underpinned by both literary allusion and the hydridization of works Marías has translated.

Javier Marías's Postmodern Praxis

Javier Marías's Postmodern Praxis

Revision with unchanged content. This study analyzes four of Javier Mar as's novels, Todas las almas, Ma ana en la batalla piensa en m , Negra espalda del tiempo and Fiebre y lanza, as well as selected journalistic articles. It focuses on their antirealist elements, such as the melding of seriousness and humor, the incongruous mixture of history and fiction, and the unreliability of the intrusive narrator. It places Mar as in the context of the post-Franco years and chronicles his rejection of the literature of social realism and his incorporation of postmodern tendencies. It also examines different types of humor in his novels through the application of Bakhtin's theory of the carnivalesque, Victor Shlovosky's theory of estrangement, Geoffrey Harpham's studies on the grotesque, and Mar as's own manipulation of history. This study also analyzes the juxtaposition of fact and fiction in Negra espalda del tiempo, challenges readers to make sense of the text, and raises questions about authorial reliability and textual stability. It shows how Mar as incorporates humoristic techniques and fictive devices in his essays to make readers aware of cultural and political change in Spain. This book should have significant relevance to readers interested in Javier Mar as and contemporary trends in Spanish literature.

Javier Marías no ha cejado en su empeño por llegar allí donde las historias no imponen su tiranía. A los cincuenta años desde la publicación de su primera novela una selección abarcadora de perspectivas críticas plasma esta libertad anhelada y revitaliza líneas de investigación desde enfoques profundamente novedosos. Se revalidan caminos existentes y se abren y exploran vías nuevas. Desde la ambigüedad y la incertidumbre hasta la ética y la responsabilidad, pasando por la visión y la hermenéutica, se presentan líneas críticas imprescindibles para entender la obra mariesca, además de facetas extraliterarias no estudiadas hasta ahora que ayudan a establecer una visión de conjunto, tales como la labor del escritor como lector editorial en Alfaguara en los años setenta, su docencia y exégesis del Quijote durante su tiempo en Wellesley College en los años ochenta o los pasos que acompañan a su recepción y progresiva consolidación en la república mundial de las letras, asuntos todos ellos que han contribuido de forma clara a la construcción y consolidación de esta obra. Javier Marías continues to strive to reach the place were stories no longer impose their tyranny. This pursuit of freedom is given shape in the present volume by way of a series of scholarly essays marking the half-century that has elapsed since the publication of his first novel. A comprehensive selection of critical perspectives revitalizes existing lines of inquiry through profoundly novel approaches. Established scholarly thinking is given renewed worth and new paths are cleared and explored. A series of indispensable perspectives are used to analyse his work in novel ways, ranging from ambiguity and uncertainty to ethics and responsibility, through vision and hermeneutics, whilst hitherto ignored extra-literary aspects, such as his teaching and editorial work, allow a comprehensive and nuanced picture to emerge.

A detailed and lively discussion and analysis of the novels, short stories, newspaper columns, and other works of one of the most important and popular writers in Spain today. This book provides the most comprehensive study to date of the full range of Marías' writing, including discussion and analysis of his literary and intellectual formation, his development as a novelist and short story writer, andhis unique perspective offered in nearly twenty-five years of newspaper columns on topics ranging from religion to football. Above all, Marías is examined as a writer of fictions. As a translator of several canonical works from English to Spanish, Marías came to appreciate the preciseness of words as well as their ambiguity, their capacity to represent as well as their propensity to distort. The author examines Marías's constant awareness of how languagecan be used to construct stories as the foundation for engaging the world as well as for imagining it. The nature of Marías's storytelling, and the way in which he imagines, form the principal focus of this Companion. David K. Herzberger is Professor and Chair of the Department of Hispanic Studies at the University of California, Riverside.

The Fictional World of Javier Marías offers a fresh perspective on the narrative universe of one of Spain’s most distinguished contemporary authors. In order to establish the origin and meaning of uncertainty in his fiction, this book presents interpretations of a range of issues inherent to Mari´as’s canon, in particular those related to the nature of language. With the relationship between language and uncertainty at its heart, this study considers the use of foreign languages, translation, and the effect of silence through an analysis of: Todas las almas (1989), Corazo´n tan blanco (1992), Man~ana en la batalla piensa en mi´ (1994) and Tu rostro man~ana (2002-2007).

Esta aproximación al Ciclo de Oxford de Javier Marías, formado por sus novelas Todas las almas, Negra espalda del tiempo y Tu rostro mañana, ofrece una interpretación filosófica de su obra a la luz de Bergson y Heidegger, resaltando el gran valor del novelista como pensador literario y escritor universal. Ante los desafíos de una modernidad en transición, se plantea aquí, como modelo crítico alternativo, una lectura interdisciplinaria desde una perspectiva ya más afincada en el siglo XXI. Las ideas de Bergson y Heidegger, releídas desde la actualidad, se convierten en una herramienta clave para articular el surgimiento de un nuevo Zeitgeist, muy presente en el estilo, el uso particular del lenguaje y el tratamiento del ser y el tiempo en la obra de Marías.

Dark Back of Time is a compelling story of the way in which reality blurs into fiction by Javier Marías, whose highly-anticipated new novel The Infatuations is published in 2013. It is translated by Esther Allen in Penguin Modern Classics. 'We lose everything because everything remains except us', says the mysterious narrator of this extraordinary novel, which meditates on the transience, chance and fragility of life. As a man called Javier Marías recalls the strange events and people that shaped his past, including ghostly literary figures, a pilot, an adventurer, a brother who died as a child and the king of an island in the Caribbean, we begin to question the nature of time, memory and reality itself. Here the writer is both a keeper of memories and a purveyor of illusions, destined to be lost in the dark back of time.Javier Marías was born in Madrid in 1951. He has published ten novels, two collections of short stories and several volumes of essays. His work has been translated into thirty-two languages and won a dazzling array of international literary awards, including the prestigious Dublin IMPAC award for A Heart So White. He is also a highly practised translator into Spanish of English authors, including Joseph Conrad, Robert Louis Stevenson, Sir Thomas Browne and Laurence Sterne.'I was enthralled by his strange mix of made-up memories, lost experiences and real-life fantasies' Marina Warner, Guardian 'He uses language like an anatomist uses a scalpel to lay bare the innermost secrets of that strangest of species, the human being' W.

This Penguin Modern Classics edition features a new Introduction by John Banville, author of The Sea.The pretty young tutor Clare Bayes attracts many eyes at an Oxford college dinner, not least those of a visiting Spanish lecturer (desperate to escape his conversation with an obese economist about an eighteenth-century cider tax). As they begin an affair, meeting in hotel bedrooms away from the eyes of Clare's husband, the Spaniard finds himself increasingly drawn into the strange world of Oxford, 'one of the cities in the world where the least work gets done', in a story of lust, loneliness, vanity and memory. Filled with brilliant set pieces and pin-sharp observation, All Souls is a masterpiece of black humour.

The Man of Feeling is a story of love and memory by Javier Marías, whose highly-anticipated new novel The Infatuations is published in 2013.On a train journey from Paris to Madrid a young opera singer becomes fascinated by those in his compartment: a middle-aged businessman, his alluring wife and their male travelling companion. Soon his life of constant travel, luxury hotels, rehearsal and performance will become entangled with these three people, and the singer will find himself fatefully consumed by Natalia's beauty. The Man of Feeling is the haunting story of the birth and death of a passion, told in retrospect. Intricately interweaving desire and memory, it explores the nature of love, and asks whether we can ever truly recall something that no longer exists.
