{"product_id":"9789038215631","title":"Bakhtin's Theory of the Literary Chronotope: Reflections, Applications, Perspectives","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis edited volume is the first scholarly tome exclusively dedicated to Mikhail Bakhtin’s theory of the literary chronotope. This concept, initially developed in the 1930s and used as a frame of reference throughout Bakhtin’s own writings, has been highly influential in literary studies. After an extensive introduction that serves as a ‘state of the art,’ the volume is divided into four main parts: philosophical reflections, relevance of the chronotope for literary history, chronotopical readings and some perspectives for literary theory. These thematic categories contain contributions by well-established Bakhtin specialists such as Gary Saul Morson and Michael Holquist, as well as a number of essays by scholars who have published on this subject before. Together the papers in this volume explore the implications of Bakhtin’s concept of the chronotope for a variety of theoretical topics such as literary imagination, polysystem theory and literary adaptation; for modern views on literary history ranging from the hellenistic romance to 19th century realism; and for analyses of well-known novelists and poets as diverse as Milton, Fielding, Dickinson, Dostoevsky, Papadiamandis, and DeLillo.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Academia Scientific","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47059083985136,"sku":"9789038215631","price":41.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789038215631_p0.jpg?v=1763670149","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789038215631","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
