Giles work remembers Beckett
posted E-mail Story E-mail Story | Print Story Print Story 
Dr. Jana M. Giles, assistant professor of English at the University of Louisiana at Monroe, recently published a book chapter in a work titled "Beckett Re-Membered: After the Centenary."

The text was edited by James Carney, Michael O'Sullivan, Leonard Madden, and Karl White and published by Cambridge Scholars Press in Newcastle Upon Tyne, U.K.

Her chapter, "The Aesthetics of the Dispossessed: Sublime Vagrancy in Beckett and Wordsworth," uses aesthetic theories of the picturesque and the sublime and the status of vagrancy to compare and contrast Irish writer Samuel Beckett's short story "The End" with English writer William Wordsworth's poems "Resolution and Independence" and the blind beggar scene in Book VII of "The Prelude."

The chapter arose out of a conference paper presented at an international, interdisciplinary conference on Samuel Beckett at University College Cork in Cork, Ireland, in July 2006.
