During the last 30 years, the Russian thinker M. M. Bakhtin has
achieved great international recognition for his work with - among
other subjects - literary theory and philosophy of language, and
inspiration from his research is to be seen in almost all fields of
the human sciences. However, Bakhtin's authorship focused primarily
on one particular phenomenon: the novel. In this book, the world's
leading Bakhtin scholars discuss Bakhtin's special understanding of
the novel, both in relation to the status the novel occupies in the
existing theoretical and philosophical debate, and in the
historical context in which it was created. Articles such as
Michael Holquist's Why is God's Name a Pun - Bakhtin's Theory of
the Novel and Theo-Philology and Derek Littlewood's Epic and Novel
in Magic Realism have been revised and augmented for the
publication.
