Preliminary Class Business
(continued from last class) Reading the Imagination of Space in Literature
- Franco Moretti, Graphs, Maps, Trees (2005), pp. 35-64
- Student passages chosen for discussion:
- Samantha B (p. 38) —
"I encountered all sorts of shapes-linear trajectories, binary fields, triangulations, multi-polar stories-but never a circular pattern. Where on earth do these rings come from?"
- Angelica (p. 42) —
"Mitford's neat stylization of rural space, however -- with its alchemical transmutation of the 'rough circle' of work into a ring of pleasure -- is not mentalite, but rather ideology: the world-view of different social actor (an urban visitor), whose movements duplicate the perimeter of rural mentalite, but completely reverse its symbolic associations."
- Noemy (p. 43) —
Figure 17: Central Places
1. "Deformance" and "Glitch"
- Deformance and Glitch: What's the Idea?
