Description: Chronotopes of the Uncanny : Time and Space in Postmodern New York Novels, Paperback by Eckhard, Petra, ISBN 3837618412, ISBN-13 9783837618419, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Using the theoretical frameworks of Freud, Todorov, and Bahktin, this book explores how American writers of the late 20th century have translated the psychoanalytical concept of the uncanny into their novelistic discourses. The two texts under scrutiny - Paul Austers City of Glass and Toni Morrisons Jazz - show that the uncanny has developed into a crucial trope to delineate personal and collective fears that are often grounded on the postmodern disruption of spatio-temporal continuities and coherences.
