Description: About this Item The item is a book Paperback The Author Name is Marc Redfield The Title is Phantom Formations : Aesthetic Ideology and the "Bildungsroman Condition New Other Comments Pages Count - 240. Category - Literary Criticism Product Description - Marc Redfield maintains that the literary genre of the Bildungsroman brings into sharp focus the contradictions of aesthetics, and also that aesthetics exemplifies what is called ideology. He combines a wide-ranging account of the history and theory of aesthetics with close readings of novels by Goethe, George Eliot, and Gustave Flaubert. For Redfield, these fictions of character formation demonstrate the paradoxical relation between aesthetics and literature: the notion of the Bildungsroman may be expanded to apply to any text that can be figured as a subject producing itself in history, which is to say any text whatsoever. At the same time, the category may be contracted to include only a handful of novels, or even none at all, a paradox that has led critics to denigrate the Bildungsroman as a phantom genre.
