This volume investigates the verbalization of neurosis in literary and cultural texts. As opposed to the medical diagnostics of neurosis in the individual, the contributions focus on the poetics of neurosis. They indicate how neuroses are still routinely romanticized or vilified, bent to suit aesthetic and narrative choices, and transfigured to illustrate unresolved cultural tensions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elena Furlanetto\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3837641325\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783837641325\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Transcript Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/27\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.80w x 0.60d","brand":"Elena Furlanetto","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49083355660543,"sku":"9783837641325","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-poetics-of-neurosis-elena-furlanetto-9783837641325","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
