In conclusion. 330 $aNeil Cornwell's study, while endeavouring to present an historical survey of absurdist literature and its forbears, does not aspire to being an exhaustive history of absurdism. Rather, it pauses on certain historical moments, artistic movements, literary figures and selected works, before moving on to discuss four key writers: Daniil Kharms, Franz Kafka, Samuel Beckett and Flann O'Brien.The absurd in literature will be of compelling interest to a considerable range of students of comparative, European (including Russian and Central European) and English literatures (British Isles and American) 606 $aAbsurd (Philosophy) in literature 606 $aLiterature$2mup 606 $aLiterary Studies: General$2bicssc 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / General$2bisach 606 $aLiterature: history & criticism$2thema 610 $aDaniil Kharms. 610 $aFlann O'Brien. 610 $aFranz Kafka. 610 $aOBERIU. 610 $aSamuel Beckett. 610 $aSurrealism. 610 $aabsurd. 610 $aabsurdist literature. 610 $aliterary movements. 610 $aprose fiction. 615 0$aAbsurd (Philosophy) in literature. 615 7$aLiterature 615 7$aLiterary Studies: General 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / General 615 7$aLiterature: history & criticism 676 $a809.93384 700 $aCornwell$b Neil$0169202 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820881703321 996 $aThe absurd in literature$93928510 997 $aUNINA
