Through close readings of The Tale of Genji, an eleventh century text that depicts the lifestyles of aristocrats during the Heian period, A Proximate Remove explores this question by mapping the destabilizing aesthetic, affective, and phenomenological dimensions of experiencing intimacy and loss. The spatiotemporal fissures Reginald Jackson calls 'proximate removes' suspend belief in prevailing structures. Beyond issues of sexuality, A Proximate Remove contends that Genji queers in its reluctance to romanticize or reproduce a flawed social order. This hesitation enhances how we engage premodern texts and question contemporary disciplinary stances." 410 0$aJoan Palevsky imprint in classical literature. 517 $aProximate Remove 606 $aJapanese literature$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aJapanese literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a895.6 700 $aJackson$b Reginald$01070415 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910493750703321 996 $aProximate Remove$93264498 997 $aUNINA
