George Moore - Spheres of Influence

This invigorating volume explores the literary worlds inhabited by
the pioneering Irish author George Moore (1852–1933). With an eye
to Moore’s innovative embrace of visual art, feminism and
literary history, and in- the spirit of his feisty resistance to
‘orthodoxy’, it investigates his influences and inventive
strategies in novel, short story and memoir. Amongst the names
emerging from the disparate spheres of impressionism, literary
coteries, the paratextual and the music world are those of Manet,
Mallarmé, Wilde, Héloïse, Elgar and Bourdieu, all with Moorian
links. Contested depictions of religion and nationalism simmer;
France and French influences encompass fin-de-siècle stories and
medieval texts; epistolary details evidence vital parental support;
contemporary authors write back to Moore. These voyages of
discovery enter the fields of feminist scholarship and the New
Woman, life writing and letters, fin-de-siècle aesthetics,
intersections between art, music and literature, and literary
transitions from Victorian to Modern. Valuably, the authors suggest
numerous opportunities for additional research in these areas, as
well as within Moore studies. This collection, with contributions
from an international set of established and new scholars, delivers
fresh and original findings as it builds on the substantial and
ever-growing corpus of Moore studies.
