Résumé
A fascinating guide to Franco Moretti’s literary criticism
Experimental Criticism offers a series of close critical engagements with Franco Moretti, one of the world’s most innovative literary thinkers. Moretti is the author of among other works Signs Taken for Wonders, Modern Epic and Graphs, Maps, Trees.
He is perhaps best known for his computational ‘distant reading’ of vast numbers of literary texts at the Stanford Literary Lab. In this book Francesco de Cristofaro and Stefano Ercolino lead a lively exploration of Moretti’s protean, experimental approach to literary criticism. Topics range from evolutionary theory and the sociology of literary forms to world literature and the Digital Humanities. A concluding part is dedicated to one of Moretti’s most prized research objects: the novel.
Experimental Criticism recovers Moretti’s origins on the Italian Trotskyist Left and is enriched by essays from Moretti himself on Lukács’s Theory of the Novel and the tension between ‘close’ and ‘distant’ reading. ‘Why study literature?’, Moretti asks. For the pleasure of reducing complex things to their simple elements. To bring them back to earth.
