The re-emergence in recent years of Villiers de l'Isle-Adam as a key figure in fin de siecle literature can be attributed in large part to the intense interest his prescient l'Eve future (1886) has generated among scholars. In effect, the novel confronts with breathtaking focus central taboos and ambivalences about the decadent period. It posits an inescapable, mechanistic linkage between desire and technology; it suggests the constructed nature of gender; it casts woman down so as to exalt her, even as it intimates the arbitrariness and fragility of the empowerment prerogatives implicit in such an operation. It is this mine for the study of fin de siecle mentalities that the present volume explores. Begun at the 1992 NCFS colloquium at Binghamton University as a collective project of the Friends of Villiers, Jeering Dreamers brings together 13 essays by Villiers scholars from both sides of the Atlantic. Their work promises, in the words of the eminent Villierien Alan Raitt, to 'Eclairer l'Eve future d'un jour nouveau-OU, plus exactement, de plusieurs jours nouveaux.Taal: Engels;Afmetingen: 0x220x150 mm;Verschijningsdatum: januari 1996;Druk: 1;ISBN10: 9051839391;ISBN13: 9789051839395; Engelstalig | Paperback | 1996.
