Demonic negativity -- pt. 2. Turnabout and dialectic -- pt. 3. Possession. 330 $aAre we either good or bad, and do we really know the difference? Why do we want what we cannot have, and even to be what we?re not? Can we desire others without wanting to possess them? Can we open to others and not risk possession ourselves? And where, in these cases, do we draw the line?Ewan Fernie argues that the demonic tradition in literature offers a key to our most agonised and intimate experiences. The Demonic ranges across the breadth of Western culture, engaging with writers as central and various as Luther, Shakespeare, Hegel, Dostoevsky, Melville and Mann.A powerful foreword by Jonathan Dollimore brings out its implications as an intellectual and stylistic breakthrough into new ways of writing criticism. Fernie unfolds an intense and personal vision, not just of Western modernity, but of identity, morality and sex. As much as it?s concerned with the great works, this is a book about life. 606 $aDemonology in literature 606 $aDevil in literature 606 $aDemoniac possession in literature 606 $aSex in literature 606 $aDesire in literature 606 $aLiterature$xHistory and criticism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aDemonology in literature. 615 0$aDevil in literature. 615 0$aDemoniac possession in literature. 615 0$aSex in literature. 615 0$aDesire in literature. 615 0$aLiterature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a809/.9337 700 $aFernie$b Ewan$f1971-,$0870239 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452426603321 996 $aThe demonic$91942746 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00903nam0 22002531i 450 001 UON00490706 005 20231205105330.536 100 $a20181008r19651970 |0itac50 ba 101 $aeng 102 $aGB 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aFor the union dead$fRobert Lowell 210 $aLondon$cFaber and Faber$d1965$erist. 1970 215 $a72 p.$d22 cm 620 $aGB$dLondon$3UONL003044 676 $a811.52$cPoesia americana. 1900-1945$v21 700 1$aLOWELL$bRobert$3UONV240207$0132260 712 $aFaber and Faber$3UONV246465$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20240220$gRICA 899 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$2UONSI 912 $aUON00490706 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI NordA V A 0388 $eSI SNA46 7 0388 996 $aFor the union dead$91525501 997 $aUNIOR
