{"product_id":"samuel-beckett-and-arnold-geulincx-david-tucker-9781472524072","title":"Samuel Beckett and Arnold Geulincx: Tracing 'a Literary Fantasia'","description":"Samuel Beckett once wrote that were he in the 'unfortunate position' of a critic studying his work, one of his points of departure would be the ideas of the seventeenth-century philosopher, Arnold Geulincx. Samuel Beckett and Arnold Geulincx: Tracing 'a literary fantasia' is the first full-length study to document the extent of the influence Geulincx's philosophy had on Beckett's prose and late drama. Establishing itself as a reference point for Beckett's published and unpublished writings, David Tucker's study presents a clear, chronological exploration of Beckett's engagement with Geulincx, and of how this engagement marks, and is marked by, broader changes in Beckett's aesthetic thinking. By positioning close, interpretative philosophical readings alongside analyses of archival materials, Tucker sets out an affirmative and reconciliatory approach to divergent strands in contemporary Beckett Studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Tucker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1472524071\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781472524072\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/16\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.51d","brand":"David Tucker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48458585473279,"sku":"9781472524072","price":52.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f70ec02f-9964-4908-b69b-4b979e14143b.jpg?v=1777405337","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/samuel-beckett-and-arnold-geulincx-david-tucker-9781472524072","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
