As with previous volumes, the proceedings also include a carefully edited account of the extensive discussions which followed the presentations.

	Legenda Main Series The Strange M. Proust edited by Andre Benhaim The strange M. Proust - the narrator, the author, and the embodiment of A la Recherche du Temps perdu - is now so canonical a writer that his very strangeness is easily overlooked. His book made of other books, his epic composed of extraordinary miniatures, his orderly structure where every law is subverted, his chronology where time can be undone and his geography where places can superimpose: in these, and many other ways, Proust ...

	Legenda Main Series Octavio Paz and T.S. Eliot: Modern Poetry and the Translation of Influence by Tom Boll When the sixteen-year-old Octavio Paz (1914-1998) discovered The Waste Land in Spanish translation, it 'opened the doors of modern poetry'. The influence of T S Eliot would accompany Paz throughout his career, defining many of his key poems and pronouncements. Yet Paz's attitude towards his precursor was ambivalent. Boll's study is the first to trace the history of Paz's engagement with Eliot in Latin American and Spanish periodicals of ... Hardback. Not yet published - advance orders taken. Price GB £45.00
	Legenda Main Series In(ter)discipline: New Languages for Criticism by Gillian Beer, Malcolm Bowie, and Beate Perrey 'Interdisciplinarity' has dynamised the Modern Humanities like no other recent academic trend. Yet, this presents serious challenges involving both translation and affect: how can we transmit facts and interpretations, sense and sensations between disciplines, between different artistic media, between cultures, between the private and the public sphere? What are the advantages, the difficulties, and risks? Another challenge concerns language: if ... Hardback. Price GB £48.00

	Legenda Main Series Gender, Nation and the Formation of the Twentieth-Century Mexican Literary Canon by Sarah E. Bowskill The post-revolutionary Mexican literary canon was formed by cultural and political elites who sought to identify and reward those novels which would best represent the new nation. Reviewers found what they were looking for in Gregorio López y Fuentes's El indio (1935) for example, but not in Consuelo Delgados's Yo también, Adelita (1936). This groundbreaking study provides a fresh perspective on canon formation by ... Hardback. Price GB £45.00
	Legenda Main Series Consuming Autobiographies: Reading and Writing the Self in Post-War France by Claire Boyle Since 1975, French literary writing has been marked by an autobiographical turn which has seen authors increasingly often tap into the vein of what the French term écriture de soi. This coincides, paradoxically, with the 'death of autobiography', as these authors self-consciously distance themselves and their writings from conventional autobiography, founding a 'nouvelle autobiographie' where the very possibility of autobiographical ...
