Science and Structure in Proust's a la Recherche Du Temps Perdu
ISBN: 9780198160021 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Proust is read as a writer of maxims and metaphors, of short and long sentences, as at once an aesthete and a scientific thinker. His A la recherche du temps perdu is a hybrid, a novel-essay, an epistemological debate that crosses the boundaries between two cultures, art and science.
