2018réf. DR-RGS7-IF2X2018 OUP hardcover edition. Unread copy in very good condition. From the cover: Art History and Postwar Fiction explores the ways in which novelists responded to the visual arts from the aftermath of the Second World War to the present day. If art had long served as a foil to enable novelists to reflect on their craft this book argues that in the postwar period novelists turned to the visual arts to develop new ways of conceptualizing the relationship between literature and history. The sense that the novel was becalmed in the end of history was pervasive in the postwar decades. In seeming to bring modernism to a climax whilst repeating its foundational gestures visual art also raised questions about the relationship between continuity and change in the development of art. In chapters on Samuel Beckett William Gaddis John Berger and W. G. Sebald and shorter discussions of writers like Doris Lessing Kathy Acker and Teju Cole this book shows that writing about art was often a means of commenting on historical developments of the period: the Cold War the New Left the legacy of the Holocaust. Furthermore it argues that forms of postwar visual art from abstraction to the readymade offered novelists ways of thinking about the relationship between form and history that went beyond models of reflection or determination. By doing so this book also argues that attention to interactions between literature and art can provide critics with new ways to think about the relationship between literature and history beyond reductive oppositions between formalism and historicism autonomy and context.
