The text investigates the interplay between author, character, and reader and considers such concepts as face and moments of embarrassment to emphasize how art and life are inseparable. Drawing on narrative theory, the phenomenological approach, and macro approaches, Maya Higashi Wakana examines Hawthorne’s “The Minister’s Black Veil,” Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, Wharton’s Ethan Frome and The Age of Innocence, and George Eliot’s The Mill on the Floss. Through a multidisciplinary approach, this book provides new ways of reading the everyday in literature. .LiteraturePhilosophyLiterature, Modern19th centurySocial sciencesPhilosophyLiterary TheoryNineteenth-Century LiteratureSocial TheoryLiteraturePhilosophy.Literature, Modern19th century.Social sciencesPhilosophy.Literary Theory.Nineteenth-Century Literature.Social Theory.841.914Wakana Maya Higashiauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut886684BOOK9910300041003321Performing Intimacies with Hawthorne, Austen, Wharton, and George Eliot2240976UNINA
