Proust, Pastiche, and the Postmodern, or Why Style Matters

by James Austin

No Customer Reviews

In this book, Austinargues against the traditional critical view that minimizes Proust's practice of pastiche--the imitation of a writer's style--and that considers it a simple exercise of mastering the predecessor. Instead, this work establishes pastiche as a powerful, ubiquitous practice central to Proust's entire oeuvre.
