In reaffirming the importance of the human subject for the study of narrative, Auerbach shows how the first person form, in particular, underscores fundamental problems of literary representation: how fictions come to be made, and the relation between these plots and the people who make them. 606 $aAmerican fiction$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFailure (Psychology) in literature 606 $aFirst person narrative 606 $aPsychological fiction, American$xHistory$xCriticism and interpretation 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAmerican fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aFailure (Psychology) in literature. 615 0$aFirst person narrative. 615 0$aPsychological fiction, American$xHistory$xCriticism and interpretation. 676 $a813/.3/09353 700 $aAuerbach$b Jonathan$f1954-$0901337 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450126503321 996 $aThe romance of failure$92469339 997 $aUNINA
