The Mirror of Divinity: The World and Creation of J.-K. Huysmans by Robert Ziegler
Huysmans (1848-1907) grappled from the beginning with the problem of acknowledging the authority of his sources while appropriating and adapting them to his own literary art, says Ziegler (humanities, Montana Tech), and so his work can be seen as a dialogue between the author and his material, each vying for expressive dominance. He examines his work as a mirror of reality, of the self, and of divinity. Some of the essays have been published separately. Distributed by Associated University Presses.
