Published in 1999 to mark the centenary of Vladimir Nabokov's
birth, this volume brings together the work of eleven of the
world's foremost Nabokov scholars offering perspectives on the
writer and his fiction. Their essays cover a broad range of topics
and approaches, from close readings of major texts, including
Speak, Memory and Pale Fire, to penetrating discussions of the
significant relationship between Nabokov's personal beliefs and
experiences and his art. Several of the essays attempt to uncover
the artistic principles that underlie the author's literary
creations, while others seek to place Nabokov's work in a variety
of literary and cultural contexts. Among these essays are a first
glimpse at a little-known work, The Tragedy of Mr Morn, as well as
a perspective on Nabokov's most famous novel, Lolita. The volume as
a whole offers valuable insight into Nabokov scholarship.
