There has been a proliferation in recent scholarship of studies ofmonuments and their histories and of theoretical positions that shedlight on aspects of their meanings. However, just as monuments marktheir territory by attempting to ensure the existence of boundaries, sothese discourses set a boundary between their authority as platforms onwhich the interpretation of monumental space occurs and, in thisrespect, the different authority of the novel. This study crosses thisboundary by means of dynamic interdisciplinary movements betweenselected novels by James Joyce, Yukio Mishima, Rashid al-Da

C'est le paradoxe du monument moderne que ce livre se propose d'explorer. À mesure que l'enjeu de l'inscription mémorielle devient idéologiquement plus suspect, le monument se métamorphose, et l'art anglais et américain vient interroger sans relâche, par-delà le rapport à l'Histoire, les enjeux sociaux et environnementaux de la commémoration. Le marbre grec est-il blanc, le toponyme indien laisse-t-il une trace ? Construire ou décrire un monument, est-ce conforter son identtié ou subtiliser la mémoire de l'autre ? Peu à peu, l'art et la littérature revisitent, brisent et transfigurent le monumental. Comment définir le monument contemporain, autrement qu'à travers ses échelles variables, du jardin de Finley au labyrinthe d'acier de Richard Serra, installations éphémères et solides à la fois ? D'où cette force proprement poétique du monument, que cette "promenade" permet d'approcher et réévaluer.

In spite of the ephemeral nature of performed drama, playwrights such as Marlowe, Jonson, Webster, Fletcher, and Shakespeare were deeply interested in the endurance of their theatrical work and in their own literary immortality. This book re-evaluates the relationship between these early modern dramatists and literary posterity by considering their work within the context of post-Reformation memorialization. Providing fresh analyses of plays by major dramatists, Brian Chalk considers how they depicted monuments and other funeral properties on stage in order to exploit and criticize the rich ambiguities of commemorative rituals. The book also discusses the print history of the plays featured. The subject will attract scholars and upper-level students of Renaissance drama, memory studies, early modern theatre, and print history.

Melville's Monumental Imagination explores the connection between the contested 19th century American monument tradition and one of the nation's most revered authors, Herman Melville (1819-1891). The book was written to fill a void in recent Melville scholarship. To date, there has not been a monograph that focuses exclusively on Melville's incorporation of monuments in his fictional world. The book charts the territory of Melville's novels in order to provide a trajectory of the monumental image in one particular literary form. This feature allows the reader to gradually see the monu
