Writing as a Way of Life -- Notes -- AcknowledgmentsIn this book, ethnographer and poet Michael Jackson addresses the interplay between modes of writing, modes of understanding, and modes of being in the world. Drawing on literary, anthropological and autobiographical sources, he explores writing as a technics akin to ritual, oral storytelling, magic and meditation, that enables us to reach beyond the limits of everyday life and forge virtual relationships and imagined communities. Although Maurice Blanchot wrote of the impossibility of writing, the passion and paradox of literature lies in its attempt to achieve the impossible--a leap of faith that calls to mind the mystic's dark night of the soul, unrequited love, nostalgic or utopian longing, and the ethnographer's attempt to know the world from the standpoint of others, to put himself or herself in their place. Every writer, whether of ethnography, poetry, or fiction, imagines that his or her own experiences echo the experiences of others, and that despite the need for isolation and silence his or her work consummates a relationship with them.American fiction20th centuryHistory and criticismEnglish literatureHistory and criticismEnglish languageWritingAuthorshipElectronic books.American fictionHistory and criticism.English literatureHistory and criticism.English languageWriting.Authorship.813/.509Jackson Michael1940-960686MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453138303321The other shore2476481UNINA02580 am 2200553 n 450 9910306651603321201811052-35613-318-610.4000/books.ausonius.10733(CKB)4100000007522679(FrMaCLE)OB-ausonius-10733(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/62336(PPN)234054905(EXLCZ)99410000000752267920190122j|||||||| ||| 0freuu||||||m||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierVivre l’Antiquité Recueil de préfaces et autres textes /Claude AzizaPessac Ausonius Éditions20181 online resource (380 p.) 2-35613-159-0 Pompéi, Rome, Carthage, Jérusalem, Cnossos, Louxor, autant de cités antiques dont la fascination a toujours donné naissance à d’innombrables romans, nouvelles, films, BD. David et Bethsabée, Salomon et Balkis, César et Cléopâtre, Claude et Messaline, Néron et Agrippine, Jésus, le Juif crucifié et Isaac Laquedem, le Juif Errant, autant de couples plus ou moins historiques, objet des fantasmes les plus fous et dont s’est nourrie la fiction, littéraires, artistique et cinématographique. On les retrouvera tous, fidèles au rendez-vous insolite où les a conviés un recueil frappé au coin de l’imaginaire. Les Anciens avaient un nom pour un tel OLNI (Objet Littéraire Non Identifié) : Miscellanea, Miscellanées, Mélanges. C’est en effet une mosaïque à la trame étrange, dont une vie d’universitaire latiniste et d’historien de l’Antiquité fantasmatique a assemblé - souvent contre vent et marées - les pièces aux formes et aux couleurs d’un rêve, celui d’une autre Antiquité. Plus réelle, peut-être, que la vraie.ClassicsHistoryBiblepéplumbande dessinéeroman historiqueBibleroman historiquepéplumbande dessinéeClassicsHistoryBiblepéplumbande dessinéeroman historiqueAziza Claude206293Devillers Olivier183302Aziza Claude206293FR-FrMaCLEBOOK9910306651603321Vivre l’Antiquité3031561UNINA
