LEIGH JOHN
Touch: The Duel In Literature
Harvard University Press Cambridge Massachusetts and London England: 2015. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. The monarchs of seventeenth-century Europe put a surprisingly high priority on the abolition of dueling seeing its eradication as an important step from barbarism toward a rational state monopoly on justice. But it was one thing to ban dueling and another to stop it. Duelists continued to kill each other with swords or pistols in significant numbers deep into the nineteenth century. In 1883 Maupassant called dueling "the last of our unreasonable customs." As a dramatic and forbidden ritual from another age the duel retained a powerful hold on the public mind and in particular the literary imagination. Many of the greatest names in Western literature wrote about or even fought in duels among them Corneille Moli�re Richardson Rousseau Pushkin Dickens Hugo Dumas Twain Conrad Chekhov and Mann. As John Leigh explains the duel was a gift as a plot device. But writers also sought to discover in duels something more fundamental about human conflict and how we face our fears of humiliation pain and death. The duel was for some a social cause a scourge to be mocked or lamented; yet even its critics could be seduced by its risk and glamour. Some conservatives defended dueling by arguing that the man of noble bearing who cared less about living than living with honor was everything that the contemporary bourgeois was not. The literary history of the duel as Touch makes clear illuminates the tensions that attended the birth of the modern world. John Leigh is University Lecturer in the Faculty of Modern & Medieval Languages at the University of Cambridge. "This is an excellent study of the strange survival of the duel into the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and its imaginative appeal in literature. The author's unexpected and illuminating insights come across in a pleasing infectious way."�Ritchie Robertson University of Oxford "Touch is remarkable. Through the insightful analysis of classic works in English French German Russian and Italian literature from the past three centuries the book generates a vivid history of dueling. It is brilliantly written filled with apt allusions to contemporary art and music�a pleasure to read."�Theodore Ziolkowski Princeton University Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts and London England: 2015 hardcover
