First edition. xiv+365 pages with index. Illustrated. Cloth. Fine in fine dustjacket. Blake's Critique of Transcendence is the first full-length book to examine in any detail or consistency the relation between Blake's text and the visual designs in The Four Zoas, one of the most important works in Blake's oeuvre. It uncovers a Blake deeply engaged with the cultural discourses of his time, in profound dialogue with Swedenborg, Locke, and Young. In the course of this conversation, Blake anatomizes a remarkable variety of cultural practices (including religion, science, and art) designed to achieve transcendence. He focuses in particular on the fate of the body in cultures of transcendence, developing perhaps the first theory of sexual sublimation. Blake's radical visual and verbal strategies in this poem are part of an attempt to defer the movement of transcendence, long enough for the reader to see the warring elements of the fallen world as the dismembered body of humanity., -Oxford University Press, 2000-, Carbondale & Edwardsville, IL: Southern Illinois University Press, 1992.

Howard examines the neglected but central role of sacrifice in the literary oeuvre of Marguerite Yourcenar. Marguerite Yourcenar was the first woman elected to the previously all-male bastion of the Académie française. However, while some readers have regarded Yourcenar as antagonistic to modem feminism, Howard shows that Yourcenar's works are susceptible to some surprisingly feminist interpretations. "Those who would co-opt Yourcenar into the conservative camp," warns Howard, "have not read her work carefully enough." In Le mystère d'Alceste, for example, Yourcenar's Alcestis substitutes for her husband in death not out of wifely devotion, but to escape her stifling existence as wife and mother. By combining her textual approach with various strains of poststructuralist theory, Howard argues convincingly that Yourcenar's novels, stories, and plays call for a radical destructuring both of the human subject as commonly conceived and of the social, political, economic, and religious institutions in the Western world. Howard is the first to demonstrate that the largely unexamined role of sacrifice is central both to that critique and to Yourcenar's literary oeuvre., Southern Illinois University Press, 1992<
