The Splendor of Longing in the Tale of the Genji
Author: Norma Field
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691656169
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 391
Book Description
Foremost among Japanese literary classics and one of the world's earliest novels, the Tale of Genji was written around the year A.D. 1000 by Murasaki Shikibu, a woman from a declining aristocratic family. For sophisticaion and insight, Western prose fiction was to wait centuries to rival her work. Norma Field explore the shifting configurations of the Tale, showing how the hero Genji is made and unmade by a series of heroines. Professor Field draws on the riches of both Japanesse and Western scholarship, as well as on her own sensitive reading of the Tale. Included are discussions of the social, psychological, and political dimensions of the aesthetics of this novel, with emphasis on the crucial relationship of erotic and political concerns to prose fiction. Norma Field is Assistant Professor of Far Eastern Languages and Civilizations at the University of Chicago. Originally published in 1987. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Book Description
SECRETS, LIES, AND MURDER ROCK AN ENGLISH VILLAGE IN DEBBIE HOWELLS’ RIVETING NEW PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER “I live in a village of stone walls and tall trees, a place of cold hearts and secrets . . .” When Elise Buckley moved with her family to Abingworth, it was supposed to be a new start. She hoped the little English village, with its scattering of houses, pub, and village church, wouldn’t offer enough opportunity for her doctor husband, Andrew, to continue having affairs. Apparently, she was wrong. Now Elise’s only goal is to maintain the façade of a happy homelife for their teenage daughter, Niamh. When the body of Niamh’s best friend, Hollie, is found, the entire village is rocked. Elise, though generally distrustful since Andrew’s infidelity, believed that Hollie was loved by her father and stepmother. Yet there was something unsettling beneath the girl’s smile. As the police investigation stalls amid disjointed evidence, it’s Niamh who unknowingly holds the key . . . Flitting between the villagers’ lives, silent and unseen, Niamh is learning about the relationships and secrets that surround her—including those close to home. And as her daughter edges closer to a killer, Elise realizes that the truth may eclipse even her worst suspicions . . . Praise for Debbie Howells and Her Novels “A nail-biter from British author Howells. . . . Fans of psychological thrillers will be rewarded.” --Publishers Weekly on Her Sister’s Lie “A combination of lyrical writing and smart mystery. It's a winner.” —Sandra Block on The Beauty of the End “An intriguing dark psychological thriller—truly brilliant!” —Lisa Jackson on The Bones of You “Has been compared to Alice Sebold’s The Lovely Bones.Unusual and haunting.” —Library Journal on The Bones of You Visit us at www.kensingtonbooks.com
