Temporalities presents a concise critical introduction to the
treatment of time throughout literature. Time and its passage
represent one of the oldest and most complex philosophical subjects
in art of all forms, and Russell West-Pavlov explains and
interrogates the most important theories of temporality across a
range of disciplines. The author explores temporality's
relationship with a diverse range of related concepts, including:
historiography psychology gender economics postmodernism
postcolonialism Russell West-Pavlov examines time as a crucial part
of the critical theories of Newton, Freud, Ricoeur, Benjamin, and
explores the treatment of time in a broad range of texts, ranging
from the writings of St. Augustine and Sterne's Tristram Shandy, to
Woolf's Mrs Dalloway and Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern
are Dead. This comprehensive and accessible guide establishes
temporality as an essential theme within literary and cultural
studies today.
