Book Description
Proust and the Visual is an edited volume of essays written by Proustian specialists, concerned with a rich phenomenological category, the ‘visual’ whose prominent role in the novel is at the heart of its modernity. The visual is defined as manifesting in the image not only space, but also time. The ‘visual’ is considered as a category that delineates the conditions of possibility of all visibility and constitutes an integral part of both the progression of the narrator s journey towards becoming a writer and of the unfolding of the novel itself.
