Timothy Findley's Novels between Ethics and Postmodernism

Sparked off by the question of how postmodernism and ethics can be reconciled at all, and inspired by the so-called ethical turn in the literary theory of the 1990s, this study offers a closer look at Findley's ethics with regard to its postmodern potential. A detailed analysis of five of his novels ("The Wars", "Famous Last Words", "Not Wanted on the Voyage", "The Telling of Lies" and "Headhunter") explores the ethical dimension of Findley's work and its consequences for his categorization as a postmodern writer. 205 Seiten, broschiert (Kieler Beiträge zur Anglistik und Amerikanistik.
