Beskrivning
Music in World Literature: From Tolstoy to Manga examines the relationship between music and literary works within various national literatures, from the 19th century to the present day, by presenting an amalgam of contemporary critical approaches to this topic across literatures and genres, from music in Leo Tolstoy and Marcel Proust to its role in Japanese manga. In doing so, the collection investigates each author’s technique of representing music in literature, or how an author’s work has been adapted musically, and includes a broad range of chapters devoted to the analysis of the complex interplay of the two art forms. Essays explore the aesthetic and cultural interactions between music and literature or between audience and performers; the nature of creativity and the role of music in specific texts, as well as the broader topics of integrating a musical performance within a narrative form.

Mer information

Julia Titus has been teaching courses in Russian language, literature, opera, and theater in the Slavic Department at Yale University for over twenty years. Her research focuses on the comparative study of French and Russian literature, translingual authors, and the intersections of Russian culture, theater, and music. As a comparativist, she is particularly interested in interdisciplinary approaches that explore the relationship between literature and music. She is the author of Dostoevsky as a Translator of Balzac (2022), Poetry Reader for Russian Learners (2015), and The Meek One: The Annotated Reader (2011).David Racker has over 25 years teaching experience in Temple University’s English Department and its Intellectual Heritage Program, and brings the expertise of the specialist in literature and the eclecticism of a professor in a great books program to his writing and editing of scholarly work. Thus, while the focus of his writing has been on Henry James, Wallace Stevens, James Baldwin, and Paul Bowles, his perspective on these writers has been shaped by continental philosophy and theory and his experience of living abroad in London, Spain, Rome, and Prague.
