Mann?s Felix Krull. 330 $aCharm in Literature from Classical to Modernism: Charmed Life discusses charm as both an emotional and aesthetic phenomenon. Beginning with the first appearance of literary charm in the Sirens episode of the Odyssey, Richard Beckman traces charm throughout canonical literature, examining the metamorphoses of charm through the millennia. The book examines the works of Chaucer, Spenser, Shakespeare, Milton, Pope, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Proust, Joyce, Mann, and others, considering the multiplicity of ways charm is defined, depicted, and utilized by authors. Positioning these poems, dramas, and novels as case studies, Beckman reveals the mercurial yet enduring connotations of charm. . 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aLiterature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aComparative literature 606 $aEuropean literature$xRenaissance, 1450-1600 606 $aLiterary History 606 $aComparative Literature 606 $aEarly Modern and Renaissance Literature 615 0$aLiterature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aComparative literature. 615 0$aEuropean literature$xRenaissance, 1450-1600. 615 14$aLiterary History. 615 24$aComparative Literature. 615 24$aEarly Modern and Renaissance Literature. 676 $a809 700 $aBeckman$b Richard$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01226846 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484456503321 996 $aCharm in Literature from Classical to Modernism$92848681 997 $aUNINA
