The Novel and the Transience of Cultural Worlds
Charts the vicissitudes of a distinctly modern and peculiarly human vulnerabilityour intimate dependence on the fragile, time-bound cultural framework that we inhabitin the history of the realist novel.
The Blossom Which We Are traces the emergence of a distinctly modern form of human vulnerability-our intimate dependence on the fragile and time-bound cultural frameworks that we inhabit-as it manifests in the realm of the novel. Nir Evron juxtaposes seminal works from diverse national literatures to demonstrate that the trope of cultural extinction offers key insights into the emotional and ideological work performed by the realist novel. With an analysis that ranges from the works of Maria Edgeworth and Walter Scott, Edith Wharton's Age of Innocence and Joseph Roth's Radetzky March and Yaakov Shabtai's Past Continuous, and finally to the current state of the humanities, this book seeks to recover literary criticism's humanistic mission, bringing the best that has been thought and said to bear on urgent contemporary concerns.
