eBook 정보

A new translation of Marcel Proust's 1900 work "Against Saint Beuve" (Contre Sainte Beuve). This edition contains a new Afterword by the translator, a timeline of Proust's life and works and a glossary of philosophic concepts in his body of work. Here Marcel Proust critically challenges the established norms of literary criticism and delves into the subjective nature of artistic interpretation, rejecting the notion that an author's personal life and experiences should be the sole basis for understanding their work, asserting the importance of the reader's own impressions and the transformative power of imagination. This work is considered significant for its departure from traditional literary analysis, opening new avenues for appreciating and comprehending literature.
