Description

This revisionist study of the novels of Paul Scott breaks new ground in literary and postcolonial discourse. Using previously unpublished archival materials and contemporary place theory as fulcrums to examine Scotts narrative method, Janis E. Haswell examines what she calls Scotts narrative of relationality - his mastery of multiple perspective and juxtaposition of images, characters, sites, and events. This book shows how the theme of connection valorizes the singular self and the cohesive power of life-narratives in the Raj Quartet and earlier works. Scotts philosophy of place(s) relates both to Englands imperial past and, more broadly, to contemporary views of self and identity.
