The acclaimed author of Lolita offers unique insight into works by James Joyce, Franz Kafka, Jane Austen, and others—with an introduction by John Updike. In the 1940s, when Vladimir Nabokov first embarked on his academic career in the United States, he brought with him hundreds of original lectures on the authors he most admired. For two decades those lectures served as the basis for Nabokov’s teaching, first at Wellesley and then at Cornell, as he introduced undergraduates to the delights of great fiction. This volume collects Nabokov’s famous lectures on Western European literature, with analysis and commentary on Charles Dickens’s Bleak House, Gustav Flaubert’s Madam Bovary, Marcel Proust’s The Walk by Swann’s Place, Robert Louis Stevenson’s “The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,” and other works. This volume also includes photographic reproductions of Nabokov’s original notes, revealing his own edits, underlined passages, and more. Edited and with a Foreword by Fredson Bowers Introduction by John Updike

Excerpt from Lectures on Literature But this lordly approach is not imperative, for Literature, lofty as it may be at times, is not remote arid austere. At its best it is friendly and intimate. It is /not for holidays only and occasions of state; it is for everyday use. It is not for the wise and the learned only, but for all sorts and conditions of men. It provides the simple ballad and the casual folk-tale that live by word of mouth, generation after generation, on the lonely hillside; and it proffers also the soul-searching tragedy which grips the masses in the densely crowded city. It has its message for every one, old and young, rich and poor, educated and ignorant; and it is su preme only as it succeeds in widening its invitation to include us all. At one time it brings words of cheer to the weak and the downhearted; and at another it stirs the strong like the blare of the bugle. It has as many aspects as the public has many minds. It is sometimes to be recovered only by diligent scholarship out of the dust Of the ages; and it is sometimes to be discovered amid the fleeting words lavishly poured out in the books of the hour, in the maga zines, and even in the daily journals. It may be born of a chance occasion and yet be worthy to survive through the long ages the Gettysburg address, for example, and the Recessional.

This book is a collection of lectures on literature given in top universities in China by Bi Feiyu, one of the country's best known writers. From the perspective of a novelist, the author revisits and interprets classic works by renowned writers, aiming to illuminate what constitutes a classic. The lectures explore works of classical and modern Chinese literature such as A Dream of Red Mansions, Water Margin and works by Lu Xun and Wang Zengqi, as well as world-famous writers such as Guy de Maupassant, V.S. Naipaul, Ernest Hemingway and Thomas Hardy. The interpretation and criticism of the works goes beyond academic textual analysis, highlighting the instincts, writing experience and insights of a creative writer. Comparison is made between the literary elements of modernism and classical Chinese works, techniques of character shaping and plot development, thematic dimensions, narrative style, literary topos, literary aesthetics and the language of literature. These essays will appeal to readers interested in literature, literary criticism, Chinese literature and world classics.
