A la recherche du temps perdu is a semi-autobiographical novel in seven volumes by Marcel Proust. His most prominent work it is popularly known for its extended length and the notion of involuntary memory the most famous example being the "episode of the madeleine". The title In Search of Lost Time has gained in popularity since the publication of a new translation by that name in the 1990s but it is also widely referred to by its original English title Remembrance of Things Past. Published in France between 1913 and 1927 many of the novel's ideas motifs and scenes appear in adumbrated form in Proust's unfinished novel Jean Santeuil 1896-99 and in his unfinished hybrid of philosophical essay and story Contre Sainte-Beuve 1908-09. At the risk of over-simplification In Search of Lost Time can be viewed as a vast bildungsroman in which the neurasthenic narrator discovers that he is a writer after a lifetime spent distracted by society and love. It is also a meditation on time memory and the superiority of art in recapturing past experiences. Random House hardcover books

2001Gutes Ex., Einband stw. geringfügig lichtrandig. - Mit Beilagen. - Programmheft. - Das Rahmenthema »Marcel Proust - Orte und Räume« trägt neueren Entwicklungen der Literaturwissenschaft und Literaturtheorie im Zeichen der Postmoderne Rechnung, indem Raumkonstruktionen und Semiotisierung von Orten den Schwerpunkt der Tagung bilden. In einem Roman wie Auf der Suche nach der verlorenen Zeit, der scheinbar nur der Thematik und Poetik der Zeitlichkeit gewidmet ist, spielt auch die Räumlichkeit eine spezifische Rolle, an der die Bedeutung von Prousts Werk nicht nur für die Moderne, sondern auch für die Postmoderne aufgewiesen werden kann. Während die Zeit, gemäß dem Titel des letzten Bandes, >wiedergefunden< wird - in einer spezifischen, halb unbewußten Weise -, müssen Räume erst rekonstruiert und mit Sinn versehen werden; die Prozeßhaftigkeit, aber auch die vielgestaltige Komplexität dieses poetischen Verfahrens der Darstellung und Konstituierung von Räumen soll in den Beiträgen zum Thema werden. Real-konkrete Orte und Räume (immer in der spezifischen Brechung eines fiktionalen Textes), im Frühwerk ebenso wie in der Recherche, werden in ihrer textuellen Funktionalität analysiert; dabei ist ihre narratologisch funktionalisierte Dynamik von besonderem Interesse. Schon auf der thematischen Ebene sind die Künste in der Konstituierung von Räumen involviert, so daß mit den topographisch erfahrbaren Räumen auch und in besonderem Maße solche der Imagination (als Raum-Konstruktionen) korreliert werden. Die Proust-Forschung, bisher, abgesehen von Georges Poulets Studie aus dem Jahr 1963, kaum mit der Frage der Räumlichkeit im Werk Prousts befaßt, soll durch die Tagungsarbeit einen neuen Impuls erhalten, der die Behandlung des Autors im Zeichen der Moderne (die damit nicht obsolet wird) durch eine postmoderne Betrachtungsweise, der konkurrierenden Vielfalt von Raumkonzeptionen und -konstruktionen verpflichtet, ergänzen und erweitern wird.
