Book Description

Publication Date: December 14, 1992

In a challenge to deconstructed texts, this treatise argues that it is time to re-examine a fundamental but neglected concept of literature: writing is an action whose agent is an individual. It offers readings of Shaw's "Saint Joan" and Proust's "A la Recherche du Temps Perdu".
