The Discerning Narrator sheds new light on Joseph Conrad’s controversial critique of modernity and modernization by reading his work through an Aristotelian lens. The book proposes that we need Aristotle - a key figure in Conrad’s education - to recognize the profound significance of Conrad’s artistic vision. Offering Aristotelian analyses of Conrad’s letters, essays, and four works of fiction, Alexia Hannis illuminates the philosophical roots and literary implications of Conrad’s critique of modernity. Hannis turns to Aristotle’s ethical formulations to trace what she calls “the discerning narrator” in Conrad’s oeuvre: a compassionate yet scepti cal guide to appraising character and con duct. The book engages with past and cur rent Conrad scholarship while drawing from Aristotle’s Poetics, Politics, and Nicomachean Ethics to offer original philosophical analyses of Conrad’s works. Drawing on Aristotle, Hannis provides a fresh context for making sense of Conrad’s self-differentiation from modernity. As a
result, The Discerning Narrator provides an affirmation of literature’s invitation to wonder about the possibilities inherent in human nature, including the potential for painful depravity, heroic excellence, and ordinary human happiness.
AxislAxes to Grind studies various types of political themes in American World War II novels of three decades. “Political,” which is essentially about power and control, includes interpreting the meaning of the war and predicting the political climate of post-war America (The Naked and the Dead, The Young Lions); exploring the dynamics of individual and group rebellions against military authority (From Here to Eternity, The Caine Mutiny, Catch-22); and tracing conflicts between various minorities and the dominant socio-political ethos of military authority (White, Christian, heterosexual). These conflicts can occur among enlisted men (The Young Lions, From Here to Eternity) but more often between military policies, such as racial segregation, and minorities (And Then We Heard the Thunder, Guard of Honor, The Gallery). The locales of these conflicts are also various: on board a ship during a typhoon, at an Army Air Force training base, even in a war industry (If He Hollers, Let Him Go). War novels written well after the war tend to see the war through the lens of the author’s own times. Thus, Slaughterhouse-Five is as much about anti-war protests during the Vietnam War as it is about the firebombing of Dresden. And in Gravity’s Rainbow, the industrial cartels that enable the V-2 rocket attacks against London prefigure the military-industrial complex of Pynchon’s time. Where necessary, the book provides historical context (e.g., Martha Gellhorn’s experience at Dachau) to further clarify the novels' political themes. |
