商品描述
Grief Work as Autotheory is an interdisciplinary, narrative non-fiction book that tests the boundaries between experimental autobiography and life writing scholarship. Written by Meg Jensen, a scholar whose career has focused on how we process trauma through writing, this memoir explores the author's own experience of losing her sister to suicide. Bringing in literary touchstones such as Virginia Woolf and Vladimir Nabokov, as well as artists like Vincent van Gogh and Thomas Gainsborough, Jensen mines her years of research to bring clarity to her own loss and grief. Introduced with a preface by Julia Watson and including a separate essay on the author's reflections on trauma theory and life writing scholarship in creative practice, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of life writing and creative writing, as well as those interested in the relationship between literary work, trauma and healing.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
《悲傷工作作為自我理論》是一本跨學科的敘事非小說類書籍，測試實驗性自傳與生活寫作學術之間的界限。這本回憶錄由梅格·詹森（Meg Jensen）撰寫，她是一位專注於我們如何通過寫作處理創傷的學者，書中探討了作者失去妹妹的自殺經歷。詹森引入了文學的觸發點，如維吉尼亞·伍爾夫（Virginia Woolf）和弗拉基米爾·納博科夫（Vladimir Nabokov），以及藝術家如文森特·梵谷（Vincent van Gogh）和托馬斯·根斯伯勒（Thomas Gainsborough），她挖掘自己多年的研究，以清晰地表達自己的失落與悲傷。本書由朱莉亞·沃森（Julia Watson）撰寫前言，並包含一篇關於作者對創傷理論和生活寫作學術在創意實踐中的反思的獨立文章，將吸引對生活寫作和創意寫作感興趣的學生和學者，以及對文學作品、創傷與療癒之間關係感興趣的讀者。
