Unlike most discourse analysts, who pay little attention to literature, the author argues that a discourse analytical perspective allows us to challenge the usual separation between textual and contextual approaches to works. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eConsidered as an impossible belonging, paratopia is a condition of possibility of literature, of the subjects who occupy a writer's position and of the use they make of language. To find their place as creators, writers must elaborate their own paratopia, they must give it shape and meaning. Their works must both construct a certain world and, through \u003ci\u003eparatopic shifters\u003c\/i\u003e, reflect and legitimise the conditions of their own appearance. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eParatopia is an invariant of literature, but it takes different forms throughout history: writers draw on their \u003ci\u003eparatopic potential\u003c\/i\u003e to appropriate the resources made available tothem by literary discourse in their own time. Today, the development of digital technologies and research on gender prompts us to take a different look at traditional forms of paratopia. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\nThe corpus includes canonical and recent texts, mainly from Western literature. It will be of interest to students and scholars in literary studies, discourse studies (discourse theory and discourse analysis), and sociology of culture. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2024-02-01\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783031509698\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-031-50970-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 156\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44676896260236,"sku":"9783031509698","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783031509698.jpg?v=1776688983","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783031509698","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
