Pressestimmen

'Jill Fell economically indicates the salient qualities of Jarry's multifarious writings, suggests various possible intertextual connections and highlights his gift for literary transposition of visual art. She fires our interest in his semi-autobiographical novels, notably "Le ""Surmale", a high-velocity tale of sexual marathons and mecanomorphic sporting prowess.'- Peter Read, "Times Literary Supplement" 'Fell gives clear summaries and thoughtful assessments of all the major works . . an excellent introduction' - Stride Magazine 'Fell's attentive critical biography reclaims [Ubu Roi]'s charge, and the short, volatile career of its author.' - Plays International 'Fell's fascinated and fascinating accounts of Jarry's theatrical innovations, both in relation to Ubu Roi and his theatrical vision in its entirety, inspire the reader. Her claim that the originality of Jarry's own imagination put him at the forefront of developments in modern art and in public taste is well supported by her thorough discussion of the variety and virulence of his life and work. The visual imagery included in the biography adds a stimulating dimension to the discussion, and some of the photographs ... provide an invaluable insight into the involved and inspiring nature of Jarry's engagement with his contemporary society.' - Modern Language Review 'Jill Fell's biography is a welcome addition to the very few studies of Alfred Jarry published in English ... a constructive overview of Jarry's brief yet productive life, his work, and his influential role in the avant-garde. Suitably illustrated, this concise study will appeal to a broad readership and offers a relevant introduction to anyone (academic or non-academic) interested in Jarry's work.' - French Studies

Kurzbeschreibung

Alfred Jarry's creation of the monster-tyrant Ubu was a watershed in theatre history: his play Ubu Roi (whose origins lie in his mercilessly ridiculed former schoolmaster) on the Paris stage in December 1896 brought him instant notoriety. This legendary event is set at the heart of Alfred Jarry, balanced with other achievements that this multi-talented and influential writer crammed into his short life, among them his self-invented science of pataphysics. The reader is steered through a minefield of Jarry anecdotes, tracing his childhood years in northwest France to Paris, where he rapidly made his reputation as a poet, playwright and social commentator. Jarry - surely the most memorable writer-bicyclist of the fin de siecle - also played a significant role in 1890s book design and was acquainted with an extraordinary cast of avant-garde characters, among them Gauguin, Rachilde, Wilde, Beardsley and Apollinaire. The quarrels that punctuated Jarry's life, the impulsive extravagances, and the chronic addiction to alcohol that drained his meagre resources, together form the backcloth to this portrait of an obsessive writer committed to his craft, undeterred by his worsening circumstances. Jarry's spirited life and inventions clearly emerge as both model and caution to many of his successors in twentieth-century theatre, art and literature, and this new biography will inform and delight readers wishing to learn more about a fascinating and wholly unconventional individual.

Alfred Jarry ( Reaction Books )- Critical Lives 3. Januar 2011
Von Mark P. Fisher - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
When it comes to Alfred Jarry, Jill Fell is my favorite historian. Her work is scholarly,and a pleasure to read. I was familiar with Roger Shattuck's writing on Jarry, and enjoyed that a lot, too. But, Jill Fell reveals tremendous data regarding Jarry's life and influences. I have not found anyone who writes as well on Jarry. Any artist, or student of art history, will benefit from this book.
I've also read some of Fell's other book on Jarry, " Alfred Jarry An Imagination In Revolt. Terrific.
