| Summary | Annotation <p>Ronald Bogue advances a theory of fabulation that helps readers grasp the Deleuzian approach to literary narrative. Fabulation involves legending, becoming-other, experimenting with the real, and inventing a people to come. It relies on an understanding of time informed by Deleuze's Chronos/Aion distinction and his theory of the three passive syntheses of time. Closely reading novels by Zakes Mda, Arundhati Roy, Roberto Bolaño, Assia Djebar and Richard Flanagan, Bogue proves the value of fabulation as a critical tool, while, at the same time, confronting the problematic relationship between history and storytelling vividly captured by these five novelists. An original and exciting study by a renowned expert on Deleuze, this volume introduces a brand new concept and then situates it solidly within Deleuze's general philosophy of aesthetics.</p> |
