- W600984328 abstract "In an earlier book Professor Krieger discussed tragic vision as confrontation with extremity-the writer's commitment to a master metaphor even as he acknowledges incompleteness of that metaphor. term is used here to indicate the sense of restraint, of acceptance, of coming to terms with limitations self-imposed-as well as awareness of alternative one rejects in turning away from self-indulgence. writer is thus viewed as one who accepts common use of language while he endeavors to defy it through metaphor, one who accepts classically common lot of man whereas his tragic impulse would lead him to reject it. Professor Krieger begins with Renaissance lyric, which for him represents both last moment of union and first moment of collision between classic and tragic visions in literature. He then moves through poems, novels, and a play, ranging in time from eighteenth to twentieth century, and delineates four kinds of retreat from extremity. In works of Pope and Samuel Johnson he finds retreat through worship of bloodless abstractions. second form of retreat is embrace of natural community, and focus is on Wordsworth, George Eliot, Jane Austen, and Anthony Trollope. Through analyses of Sterne's Tristram Shandy, Robert Penn Warren's All King's Men, and works by Swift, Professor Krieger demonstrates retreat through acceptance of human barnyard. final form of retreat, through an alternative to sainthood, is shown in Faulkner's Light in August and T. S. Eliot's Murder in Cathedral. In each case, Professor Krieger finds, by analyzing pervading metaphor one is confronted with a counter-metaphor that mysteriously asserts itself: The metaphors may have been unmetaphored, but they remain forms of imagination that constitute a reality, though it is now seen as imperfect. As such forms, metaphors sustain us still. And that is perhaps most classic notion of all." @default.
