- W1788893035 abstract "Instead of exploring explicit textual or ideological influences of the philosophyof F.W. Nietzsche on Modernist literary writers, this thesis analyses the pointsat which works such as James Joyce's A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Manand T.S. Eliot's Four Quartets bear an implicit relationship to an aesthetictheory for which the notion of representation (artistic or philosophical) and thatof sacredness must be thought together. Such a theory is to be found mostexplicitly in Nietzsche's The Birth of Tragedy, although some of his earlier andlater writings engage with it too.Thus, from the points of convergence of the sacred and the aesthetic thatappear in The Birth of Tragedy, I extract the keys for a theory of representationat large, of Nietzschean import, in order to contrast the notion of philosophicalrepresentation (Vorstellung) with the activities and discourses which philosophyhas traditionally tried to avoid: rituals and myths. Out of this contrast, theconclusion emerges that there is a genealogical progression from ritual(specifically sacrifice) to myth, and from this to philosophical and artisticrepresentation; that is to say, that only after a myth (whose root was a ritual) haslost its religious value, can philosophy and art (and literature in particular) enjoya fully separate existence, as the secularised discourses that characterise ourModernity: (here modern science is included as a development and continuationof the philosophical discourse). What makes Modernist writers play an essentialrole in this respect is their tacit awareness of this genealogy, which is manifestedin their aesthetic practice. Two instances of this practice are analysed here, intheir mythopoeic character (mainly derived from the mythic possibilities ofChristianity), and their questioning of modern notions (selfhood, identity,individuality). They re-enact the original sacred speech previous to oursecularised modern aesthetics." @default.
