Bücher von Naomi Segal

Researchers in the new field of literary-and-cultural studies look at social issues - especially issues of change and mobility - through the lens of literary thinking. The essays range from cultural memory and migration to electronic textuality and biopolitics.

This 1986 study of Manon Lescaut draws on various debates in psychoanalysis, feminism and literary criticism. It aims to analyse the narrator's presentation of this story of a young man's passion for a femme fatale and to suggest ways in which feminist criticism can help explain how the text operates.
