Benjamin Constant
`For forty years I have defended the same principle: freedom in everything, in religion, in philosophy, in literature, in industry, in politics - and by freedom I mean the triumph of the individual.'

Austin to Judith Butler, has a much greater relevance for Romantic literature than has been realized, since Romantic philosophy of language was dominated by the idea that something "happens" when words are spoken. By presenting Romantic philosophy as a theory of the performative, and Romantic literature in terms of that theory, this book uncovers the historical roots of twentieth-century ideas about speech acts and performativity. Ro...
The Novel's Seductions
The distinctive place of Stael's novel in literature and its disseminative powers are documented in Part III, "Genie at Large." From Corilla Olimpica to Marguerite Yourcenar, the critics depict affiliations among female writers striving for public recognition and explore the ideological/textual borrowings among Corinne and other classic works.
