God and Self in the Confessional Novel
Sykes, Jr., John D.

God and Self in the Confessional Novel[electronic resource] /by John D. Sykes, Jr. - 1st ed. 2018. - XII, 157 p.online resource.

1. Introduction -- 2. Augustine and Rousseau: Confessio laudis, Confessio peccatorum, and the Nature of the Self -- 3. The Sorrows of Young Werther: Confessions without Confession -- 4. Notes from Underground: Self-Deception and the Dialogic Self -- 5. Lancelot: Dialogic Consciousness and the Triadic Self -- 6. Atonement: The Novel’s Confessional Limit -- 7. Conclusion.

God and Self in the Confessional Novel explores the question: what happened to the theological practice of confession when it entered the modern novel? Beginning with the premise that guilt remains a universal human concern, this book considers confession via the classic confessional texts of Augustine and Rousseau. Employing this framework, John D. Sykes, Jr. examines Goethe’s The Sorrows of Young Werther, Dostoevsky’s Notes from Underground, Percy’s Lancelot, and McEwan’s Atonement to investigate the evolution of confession and guilt in literature from the eighteenth century to the early twenty-first century.
