Palgrave Studies in Modern European Literature: Literature, Celebrity, Democracy

Heynders, Odile

This book demonstrates how authors performing the role of a public intellectual discuss ideas and opinions regarding society while using literary strategies and devices in and beyond the text. Their assumed persona thereby reads the world as a book - interpreting it and offering alternative scenarios for understanding it.
