    The incidence of perfect moments: acoustic eloquence and narrative terroir in modern fiction by Tan, Ignatius Lu Wei

    Published 2022
    “…Where such fictions frequently exhibit moments of extraordinary musicality within the medium of language, I posit that the terroir of music production finds equivalence in the semantics of the modern novel. Turning this lens towards three novels: Graham Swift’s Waterland (1983), Steven Galloway’s The Cellist of Sarajevo (2008), and Samuel Beckett’s How It Is (1964), this thesis will demonstrate that the curation of this terroir of semantic meaning imposes itself as a structural and circumstantial binding condition on the acoustics of language in the modern novel, and thus forms an essential component in the cadences of its sounds and musicality of its words.…”

    Make it orijinal: literary modernism and the novel on the Turkish-British axis 1908-1948 by Staudt, K

    Published 2017
    “…Building on the insights of the global turn in modernist scholarship, I argue that the Turkish novel in the early 20th century offers unique insight into the relationship between state-sponsored, westernizing modernity and literary experimentation. Exploring important novels of the Kemalist era alongside their equally canonical Anglo-European counterparts, this dissertation demonstrates that certain tropes of modernism long presumed unique to European culture have analogous strands in Turkish modernity. …”
