Editors
A token of the world s instability and of human powerlessness, chance is
inevitably a crucial literary theme. Chance also presents problems of form:
Must the artist struggle against it in pursuit of a flawless creation? Or does
it play a role in the artistic process or finished work? In Constraining Chance,
Alison James examines the representation and staging of chance in literature
through the study of a specific case
—
the work of the experimental twentieth-
century French writer Georges Perec
(1936-82).
James shows how Perec strives to capture essential aspects of human life
—
its
energy, its boundless possibilities, but also the constraints and limitations that
bind it. A member of the Oulipo (Ouvroir
de littérature potentielle), a
coalition of
French novelists, poets, and mathematicians, Perec adopted the group s dictum
that the literary work should be anti-chance, a product of fully conscious
creative processes. James reveals the twist that Perec gave this notion, in using
the group s precepts both to explore the role of chance in existence and to
redefine the possibilities of literary form. Her investigation links Perec s writing
methods to the thematic exploration of causality, chance, and fate in his writings.
An erudite, engaging, intellectually intrepid reflection on the ways in which
one of the most powerful authors of the twentieth century grappled with the
notion of chance. Alison James writes with both elegance and authority, inviting
us to see Georges Perec s work through a new lens, one where chance may
be viewed as a positive potential, fully enlisted in the service of intentional
literature.
