Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In his first book of essays, Garrett Stewart demonstrates and reframes his formidable powers as a close reader of a vast range of texts: novels, films, songs, book art, digital media, and more.Among the most prolific and exacting readers of his generation, Stewart is renowned for his virtuosic interventions across a number of humanistic fields, including prose narrative, screen studies, and literary theory. Elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2010 and winner of the International Society for the Study of Narratives prize for Novel Violence (2009), Stewart draws on these varied realms in his intensive readings of enduring works across media ones worthy of a re-view and a closer look. Closer Reading, like Stewarts writing more broadly, offers up-close analyses of novels, poetry, cinema, and conceptual art, including chapters on Gerard Manley Hopkins, Charles Dickens, Francis Ford Coppola, Stanley Cavell, and John le Carre. A collection a half-century in the making yet brimming with critical notes from the vanguard Closer Reading finds Stewart demonstrating, from sentence to sentence, a sustained rethinking of the value of close reading not just as a methodology but also as a cognitive disposition.Leaving paranoid, symptomatic, and surface reading to the side, Stewart revels in the workings of sentences and the many senses of media. Such a prismatic reading affords insight into the spectrum of interpretation and the bent light of interaction, refraction, and diffraction. To dwell in the astute and generous line of Stewarts inquiry is to experience an exhilaration rare in critical commentary. Featuring full-length essays, including still-potent early publications and accompanied by an entirely new and wide-ranging interview with David LaRocca, Closer Reading provides a deep and satisfying critical survey of and immersion in Garrett Stewarts inimitable oeuvre. Perhaps the most prolific and exacting reader of his generation, Garrett Stewart's first book of essays on close analysis of novels, literary theory, conceptual art, and cinema is joined by a new interview that helps account for the range and delicacy of his critical acumen.

Neuware - More than singling out the fertility of a unique and indefatigable career, this chronological review of Garrett Stewart's critical approach serves to track and map the evolution of intersecting disciplines from late New Criticism through structuralism, deconstruction, psychopoetics, and the newer historicisms, all part of a burgeoning interdisciplinary spectrum in which Stewart's has been so persistent and so eloquent a voice.Excerpts from Stewart's 20 books are framed by editorial retrospect and overview before being linked by Stewart's own commentary on the variety - and underlying vectors - of his interpretive career across media, from Victorian narrative to contemporary American fiction, classic celluloid cinema to contemporary digital effects, the painting of readers through the conceptual ironies of inert book sculpture, literary wordplay to the soundscape of singing on screen.Accompanied by a glossary of his many influential coinages, from 'phonotext' to 'prose friction,' this cornucopia of eye-opening analyses is also a chronicle of evolving paradigms in the work of intensive reading.
