Biographies littéraires croisées de trois des plus grands romanistes du XXe siècle. L'auteur étudie les interactions entre l'expérience de la littérature, sa théorisation et les événements de la vie quotidienne de trois collègues et amis dont les trajectoires se séparent à cause du nazisme. E. Auerbach et L. Spitzer s'exilent quand E.R. Curtius vit, selon ses propres mots, un exil intérieur. ©Electre 2020 Comment littérature et vie, écriture et biographie s'articulent-elles ? A travers les figures des trois plus importants romanistes du siècle dernier, Auerbach, Curtius et Spitzer, Gumbrecht étudie les interactions entre l'expérience de la littérature, sa théorisation et les événements de la vie quotidienne. Ces trois auteurs ont en commun la langue allemande, le fait d'avoir été collègues et amis.Mais leur destin a été différent : Auerbach et Spitzer ont dû s'exiler en raison des lois raciales nazies ; Curtius a déclaré avoir vécu un "exil intérieur" . Révélant les liens qui se tissent entre l'histoire individuelle, l'histoire collective et la théorie littéraire, Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht signe ici un ouvrage qui non seulement documente un chapitre-clef de l'histoire de la philologie européenne, mais représente aussi un sommet de la biographie littéraire.

"This book explores the themes of exile and wandering, homecoming and fated closures in literature-but also in real life and history-by invoking Homer's Odyssey. Focusing on crucial moments in the lives and careers of three scholar/writers-Erich Auerbach, François Fénelon, and W. G. Sebald-all of whom were inspired by Homer's epic, Three Rings uses "ring composition" (Homer's dominant narrative technique) to tell the stories of the three writers' lives"--

Winner of the 2020 Prix du Meilleur Livre Etranger, France's best foreign book of the year In this genre-defying book, best-selling memoirist and critic Daniel Mendelsohn explores the mysterious links between the randomness of the lives we lead and the artfulness of the stories we tell. Combining memoir, biography, history, and literary criticism, Three Rings weaves together the stories of three exiled writers who turned to the classics of the past to create masterpieces of their own-works that pondered the nature of narrative itself. Erich Auerbach, the Jewish philologist who fled Hitler's Germany and wrote his classic study of Western literature, Mimesis, in Istanbul. Francois Fenelon, the seventeenth-century French archbishop whose ingenious sequel to the Odyssey,The Adventures of Telemachus - a veiled critique of the Sun King and the best-selling book in Europe for one hundred years - resulted in his banishment. And the German novelist W. G. Sebald, self-exiled to England, whose distinctively meandering narratives explore Odyssean themes of displacement, nostalgia, and separation from home. Intertwined with these tales of exile and artistic crisis is an account of Mendelsohn's struggles to write two of his own books-a family saga of the Holocaust and a memoir about reading the Odyssey with his elderly father-that are haunted by tales of oppression and wandering. As Three Rings moves to its startling conclusion, a climactic revelation about the way in which the lives of its three heroes were linked across borders, languages, and centuries forces the reader to reconsider the relationship between narrative and history, art and life.
