Description:Best known for the short novel Manon Lescaut, Antoine-Fran�ois Pr�vost was also the author of a dictionary, several important translations, an extensive corpus of historical writing, a dozen novels, and more than twenty volumes of journalism. While much of his fiction is reminiscent of the adventure stories of baroque novelists, Pr�vost's nonfiction expresses an encyclopedic ambition that prefigures the intellectual enterprises of the philosophes . In her exploration of the tension between his novelistic and journalistic writing, Rori Bloom argues that Pr�vost's novels employ established and even archaic attitudes toward authorship, while his newspaper elaborates a new understanding of the roles of author and public. By juxtaposing Pr�vost's novels and newspaper, Bloom analyzes the sophisticated literary strategies through which this author constructed his complex professional identity.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
