Proust and Venice

About Proust and Venice

This study of Proust's famous novel A la recherche du temps perdu (Remembrance of Things Past) focuses on Venice, one of the hero's central obsessions, and shows how a whole network of allusions to art (from Titian to Turner, from Byzantine mosaic to Fortuny dresses) ties in with the hero's quest for self-knowledge and self-fulfilment.
