초록
This paper observes the authenticity of fictive bio/historiography through Julian Barnes's two novels, Flaubert’s Parrot and A History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters. It focuses on how/why literature ‘writes and preserves’ history, contemplating if literary historiography can convey the truths inside historical facts. The two novels, presenting themselves with conventional referents of historical writing such as biography and history, seriously intervene in historiography. In the protagonist's pursuit of a dead author and his stuffed bird, Flaubert’s Parrot offers different—completely opposite at times—aspects of historical reality by using real names of people, places, and events that are historically verifiable. A History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters reveals a variety of voices hidden in history as petits récits, demonstrating diversity and mixed heterogeneity in historiography with various deconstructive documents. Barnes's historically self-conscious writing, deeply metafictional and self-reflexive, rearranges historical contexts and makes an issue of the entire notion of historical knowledge, underlining love on their basis. Barnes's text, seemingly half-fiction and half-historiography, tries to embrace all the possibilities in history, crossing the line between facts and truths by means of dialectical communication among love, truth, and history. Most of all, Barnes sees love as the healing power working on history.
Abstract
This paper observes the authenticity of fictive bio/historiography through Julian Barnes's two novels, Flaubert’s Parrot and A History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters. It focuses on how/why literature ‘writes and preserves’ history, contemplating if literary historiography can convey the truths inside historical facts. The two novels, presenting themselves with conventional referents of historical writing such as biography and history, seriously intervene in historiography. In the protagonist's pursuit of a dead author and his stuffed bird, Flaubert’s Parrot offers different—completely opposite at times—aspects of historical reality by using real names of people, places, and events that are historically verifiable. A History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters reveals a variety of voices hidden in history as petits récits, demonstrating diversity and mixed heterogeneity in historiography with various deconstructive documents. Barnes's historically self-conscious writing, deeply metafictional and self-reflexive, rearranges historical contexts and makes an issue of the entire notion of historical knowledge, underlining love on their basis. Barnes's text, seemingly half-fiction and half-historiography, tries to embrace all the possibilities in history, crossing the line between facts and truths by means of dialectical communication among love, truth, and history. Most of all, Barnes sees love as the healing power working on history.
