Paul de Man, for example, declared that 'a literary text is not a phenomenal event' and therefore 'solicits an understanding that has to remain immanent'. In his study, Christian Jany challenges such a strict division by shifting attention to the interplay between perceptual and narrative processes. The introduction of key phenomenological concepts and, above all, Hegel's conception of sense perception as a 'story' prepare this shift theoretically. The following analyses of scenic descriptions - or scenographies - of perception by Novalis, Rilke, and Proust demonstrate the interplay of perception and narration in practice. The things a Rilkean poem has us see, the subtle resonances of the opening scene of Proust's \u003cem\u003eRecherche\u003c\/em\u003e, and the strange fusions of thought and feeling that some 'blue flower' generates in Novalis's \u003cem\u003eHeinrich von Ofterdingen\u003c\/em\u003e are exemplary cases in point of this ambitious study in literary aesthetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChristian Jany is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute for Literary and Cultural Studies, ETH Z rich.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 270\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.63 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 13, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51797884502304,"sku":"9781781885093","price":158.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/bfa4bcee6d4cd61c728bb2172eb3eb36.webp?v=1780786879","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/scenographies-of-perception-sensuousness-in-hegel-novalis-rilke-and-proust-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
