Furthermore this book investigates to which extent the Augustinian art of memory influenced Nabokov's fictive autobiographies. By selecting a sample comprising Mary (Mashen'ka), The Gift (Dar), Lolita, and Ada, the continuous importance of the Augustinian paradigm throughout Nabokov's multilingual career is demonstrated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christoph Henry-Thommes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3825352005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783825352004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Universitatsverlag Winter Gmbh Heidelberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/11\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 392\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Christoph Henry-Thommes","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48487076135167,"sku":"9783825352004","price":62.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c979c31f-eb9f-42e9-ac03-88b0b83b1c3e.jpg?v=1778058192","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/recollection-memory-and-imagination-christoph-henry-thommes-9783825352004","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
