For this purpose the author conducted an analysis based upon the concepts of 'polyphony' and 'focalization' of three novels from different literary periods commonly labeled 'Pre-modernism', 'Modernism', and 'Postmodernism', namely, George Eliot's \u003ci\u003eMiddlemarch\u003c\/i\u003e (1871-2), Joseph Conrad's \u003ci\u003eNostromo\u003c\/i\u003e (1904), and Saul Bellow's \u003ci\u003eHerzog\u003c\/i\u003e (1964). Inspired by the work of Russian linguist-philosopher Mikhail Bakhtin the author attempts to clarify stylistically how polyphony is textualized in each novel and how each mode of polyphony reflects less parochial literary and cultural trends.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Masayuki Teranishi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3039113631\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783039113637\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang UK\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/03\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d","brand":"Masayuki Teranishi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48446077567231,"sku":"9783039113637","price":88.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c08ff57b-2f7e-478f-908b-6d6efadc07e1.jpg?v=1777222473","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/polyphony-in-fiction-a-stylistic-masayuki-teranishi-9783039113637","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
