Illuminating Darkness. Approaches to Obscurity and Nothingness in Literature
Edited by Päivi Mehtonen
Finnish Academy of Science and Letters
Annales Academiae Scientiarum Fennicae. Humaniora 348
Vaajakoski 2007, 219 pp.
Illuminating Darkness brings together ten approaches to the themes, styles and genres of that which (allegedly) baffles the routines of language, knowledge and perception. This volume permits us to see how literature has formulated fictions and philosophies of nothing through myths, rhetorical devices and different languages of negation and affirmation. The writers analysed here cover various languages and periods of European and Nordic literature.
