2011-2015: Thorunn Gullaksen Endreson Walden, Withdrawal and Freedom
Departing from the U. S. critics’ seemingly synchronic reception of
Jonathan Franzen’s Freedom, the project will offer a diachronic
reading of the novel as an elegy on Thoreau’s Walden and on the
withdrawal motif of American literature in general. As a reading of
the novel expands along historical lines, the ecocritical potential of the
novel is unfolded. The project will also analyse the reception of
Freedom among U. S. critics; its nature and its causes.
