Описание
In the light of Marxism, mainly from the point of view of Lukacs, this book attempts to compare the concept of 'reality' in two great novels that are highly different in style: George Eliot's The Mill On The Floss and James Joyce's Ulysses.Lukacs on the one hand puts the 19th century novelists, including Eliot,on a pedestal and believes that the novels of this period mostly depict true reality. On the other hand, he excoriates strongly the modernist novels such as Ulysses for the use of formal devices, abandonment of a unified perspective, resort to techniques of disruption, and depiction of the alienation and fragmentation of human existence. This book attempts to prove that reality is not absolute,that there are many conceptions of reality but reality itself is the special something that can only be partially rendered by any conception.
