Reflects contemporary paradigm shifts in embryology and evolutionary theory through formal experimentation in the modernist BildungsromanModernist Life Histories explores how new models of embryonic development helped inspire new kinds of coming-of-age plots during the first half of the twentieth century. Focusing on novels by E. M. Forster, James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Aldous Huxley and Samuel Beckett, the book links narrative experiments with shuffled chronology, repeated beginnings and sex change to new discoveries in the biological sciences. It also reveals new connections between the so-called Two Cultures by highlighting how scientific ideas and narratives enter the literary realm.Key FeaturesProvides a unique perspective on the Bildungsroman (novel of formation), one of the most discussed genres in recent scholarly work on modernismApproaches the study of science and literature with exceptionally close attention to the details of scientific models, their cultural appropriations, and their political implicationsMakes the first thoroughgoing argument for twentieth-century biology as a positive influence on modernist poetics and ethicsModels how narrative theory can serve the goals of interdisciplinary research

Sometimes enjoying considerable favor, sometimes less, iconography has been an essential element in medieval art historical studies since the beginning of the discipline. Some of the greatest art historians – including Mâle, Warburg, Panofsky, Morey, and Schapiro – have devoted their lives to understanding and structuring what exactly the subject matter of a work of medieval art can tell. Over the last thirty or so years, scholarship has seen the meaning and methodologies of the term considerably broadened. This companion provides a state-of-the-art assessment of the influence of the foremost iconographers, as well as the methodologies employed and themes that underpin the discipline. The first section focuses on influential thinkers in the field, while the second covers some of the best-known methodologies; the third, and largest section, looks at some of the major themes in medieval art. Taken together, the three sections include thirty-eight chapters, each of which deals with an individual topic. An introduction, historiographical evaluation, and bibliography accompany the individual essays. The authors are recognized experts in the field, and each essay includes original analyses and/or case studies which will hopefully open the field for future research.

L'Uomo senza qualità di Robert Musil si muove in modo costante tra i due poli di crisi e possibilità. Questo studio analizza tre categorie, assi portanti della modernità, che nel romanzo illustrano questo movimento dialettico: il Soggetto, lo Stato, la Storia. Con feroce ironia Musil mostra il tramonto di queste categorie e ne rivela la decomposizione, ma al tempo stesso cerca una via d'uscita per rifondare l'essenza, la socialità e la temporalità dell'agire umano. Il soggetto cartesiano, «forte», «sovrano» ed autocentrato, si sfalda; e tuttavia il romanzo cerca di scovare le possibilità di una sua rifondazione utopica nello spazio lasciato libero dalla sua dissoluzione. Nell'Impero austro-ungarico, lo Stato come identità sovrana e fondante viene meno; ma la Cacania musiliana, presentando l'esasperazione della crisi delle categorie tradizionali della modernità, è il terreno di sperimentazione più adatto per nuove possibilità. La causalità e la finalità del processo storico si frantumano; ma la tensione utopica che anima la ricerca di Musil lo porta a tentare di «reinventare» la storia su modelli diversi ed eterogenei. L'Utopia è infatti la categoria portante del romanzo e guida tutta la pars construens della filosofia musiliana: Musil non si accontenta di descrivere ed analizzare la crisi ed il tramonto di un mondo, ma propone sempre un suo superamento.
