Description:

Marcel Proust's "In Search of Lost Time" is often cited as the greatest Western novel, but because of its length-over 4000 pages in the standard English translation-it is seldom read. This course offers a rare chance to study the novel in its entirety, with particular attention to Proust's understanding of time, his revolutionary views on sexuality, his narrative technique, and his ideas about the relationship between literature and the other arts. Prerequisite, 152 or consent of instructor. Open to first year students with consent of instructor only. Maximum enrollment, 12. P Rabinowitz.
