Nathaniel Hawthorne and the Ethical
NeMLA, 39th Annual Convention. April 10-13, Buffalo, NY
The assumption behind this panel is that a rigorous examination of the
relation between reading and working brings us to the threshold between
“intrinsic†and “extrinsic†criticism. Thematizations of work, for example,
organize our attention within the text even as they direct us outward
toward reference to the leisure that is the precondition for literary
reading itself. Most theories of narrative time depend upon an assumed
homogenization of experience that the reality of work contradicts: social
relations in class society preclude the possibility of phenomenologically
equivalent temporalities across classes, even as “homogeneous, empty timeâ€
GOTHIC Literature; a fixed genre or a fluid mode
Aim: To get both scholars and students in the UNAM (National Autonomous
University of Mexico) and other institutions interested in the Gothic by
showing them the richness in content as well as the recent growing in
academic studies concerning Gothic works and writers.
