Книга: Guy Risko «Ethics and Imagination»
|
Производитель: "LAP Lambert Academic Publishing" While Phillip Pullman`s `His Dark Materials` Trilogy is aimed at young readers, the three texts construct a dynamic and complicated world that forces readers to confront and question ofter overlooked questions of ethics. Breaking with the canonical norms and patterns of Children`s and Young Adult Literature, Pullman`s three novels open new perspectives on the very possibility of thinking ethically in the contemporary political moment. This book aims to trace Pullman`s critiques of the theological tradition and articulated alternative modes of imagining subjectivity and ethics. Drawing on the work post-structuralist thinkers and literary critics, this work finds a stunning connection with Pullman`s radical imaginary. Literary critics yearning for a more sustained relationship between Children and Young Adult fiction and critical theory should find this work useful to illustrate the depths to which this connection can be mined.
