The volume accomplishes this through the inclusion of eight original essays representing a range of critical approaches that trouble narrative boundaries demarcating the novels included in Morrisonas evolving opus, with A Mercy serving as a locus for discussion of her re-figuration of concerns central to her narrative project. Issues relevant to the conflicted mother-child relationship, the haunting legacy of slavery, the black female body as a site of trauma, the thorny quest for an idealized home, the perilous transatlantic journey, the demands associated with love, and, yes, the desire for mercy recur, but they do so with a difference, a MorrisonianA twist that demands close intellectual scrutiny. Essays included in this volume are invested in a persistent scholarly investigation of this narrative and rhetorical play. - - The publication of A Mercy represents a climactic moment in Morrisonas evolving political consciousness, her fictional geography, and, consequently, a shift in the margins marking her multiple-text universe. The complicated markers of difference figuring in RecitatifA and continuing with Paradise and Love culminate in the authoras ninth work of fiction. This volume ventures to chart that change, not for the sake of encoding it, but in an effort to open up new ways of interrogating her writing. - -Electronic books.169Montgomery Maxine L967310MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453108803321Contested boundaries2195979UNINA01502nam2 22002651i 450 VAN004430820070120120000.020060414d1987 |0itac50 balatIT|||| |||||ˆ6: ‰Complectens Metropolitanas, earumque suffraganeas Ecclesias, quae in Campaniae felicis, Aprutii, Hirpinorumque Neapolitani Regni claris provinciis recensenturauctore Ferdinando UghelloSala bolognese : Fornistampa 19871 v. : ill. ; 33 cmRipr. facs. dell'ed. di Venezia del 1719.001VAN00442922001 Italia sacraauctore Ferdinando Ughello205 Rist. anast210 Sala BologneseArnaldo Forni phototypice excudentestampa 1972-1989215 10 v.ill.33 cm. - Ripr. facs. dell'ed.: Venetiis : apud Sebastianum Coleti, 1717-1722.6BolognaVANL000003UghelliFerdinandoVANV035775443718ForniVANV108290650ITSOL20230616RICABIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI LETTERE E BENI CULTURALIIT-CE0103VAN07VAN0044308BIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI LETTERE E BENI CULTURALI07CONS Ua 2286 6 07 10303 20090224 Complectens Metropolitanas, earumque suffraganeas Ecclesias, quae in Campaniae felicis, Aprutii, Hirpinorumque Neapolitani Regni claris provinciis recensentur1403980UNICAMPANIA
