He combines a wide-ranging account of the history and theory of aesthetics with close readings of novels by Goethe, George Eliot, and Gustave Flaubert. For Redfield, these fictions of character formation demonstrate the paradoxical relation between aesthetics and literature: the notion of the Bildungsroman may be expanded to apply to any text that can be figured as a subject producing itself in history, which is to say any text whatsoever. At the same time, the category may be contracted to include only a handful of novels, (or even none at all), a paradox that has led critics to denigrate the Bildungsroman as a phantom genre. 606 $aAesthetics, Modern 606 $aEuropean fiction$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aGerman fiction$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aBildungsromans$xHistory and criticism 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aLiterature: history & criticism 615 0$aAesthetics, Modern. 615 0$aEuropean fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aGerman fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aBildungsromans$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a809.3/0094 700 $aRedfield$b Marc$f1958-$0995386 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910272350103321 996 $aPhantom Formations$92435911 997 $aUNINA
