This multidisciplinary collection brings together scholars from the
fields of literature, theology and linguistics who question and
extend our taken-for-granted conceptions of The End. It focuses on
the ways in which endings are formally signaled in literature, and
sets these alongside parallel studies in journalism and film.
However, it is also concerned with larger philosophical and
historical notions of closure, impermanence, rupture and apocalypse
as well as the possibilities of "posthumous" being. It gives
examples from fairytales, Byron, Longfellow, Dillard, Barnes and
South African writers.
