A mosaic patterning: space, time and the lyric essay by Robertson, Rachel, Hetherington, P.

“…We read Isidore’s work as an analogue for the fragmentation and juxtapositioning of the texts of lyric essays which, in turn, enables us to consider the lyric essay’s positioning between narrative explicitness and poetic compression, and the relationship between time and space within such essays. We make use of Mikhail Bakhtin’s concept of the chronotope to tease out ideas of literary time and space, and also employ Erwin Straus’s idea of ‘presentic’ space and movement, ‘free of direction or limits’. …”

The centrifugal-centripetal continuum : towards a consummation-oriented ambivalent answerability in a Bakhtinian reading of Faulkner's As I Lay Dying and Radcliffe's The Romance of... by Behnam, Aydin

“…It can be argued that the most pivotal legacy of Mikhail Bakhtin is the term ―Dialogism‖. However the non-preference of centralising and de-centralising forces over each other with which Dialogism is implicated has been used by many, including the poststructuralists, to suit their own purpose of attributing chaos to dialogue. …”

Writing the Republic: liberalism and morality in American political fiction by Hutchison, Anthony

“…Melville's Moby Dick is ultimately invoked as a formal template for the American political novel with a theory of 'republican' fiction then being presented that is compared and contrasted with the 'democratic' mode Mikhail Bakhtin associated with Dostoevsky. The American political novel, finally, it is argued, is always informed by the complexities of the American political tradition itself: a form of immanent liberal critique pre-occupied with the health of the polity and guided by a 'republican' persuasion.…”

Epistemological provisionality as a generic feature of the British novel by Conley, Marcus

“…Barker’s thematic emphases on uncertainty, multiplicity, and fallenness coincide with a generically entrenched, and thus novelistic, orientation toward open-endedness and unfinalizability, as articulated in the work of Mikhail Bakhtin. Chapter three associates realism with mimesis, a figure whose tendency toward duplicity and reversibility align it with Jacques Derrida’s concept of pharmakon. …”

Virtual fictional/factual positioning as an approach to the postmodern sense of the self and its dialogical dimensions in Paul Auster's selected novels by Barani, Forough

“…VFP originates from contributions to psychological studies by Hubert Hermans in Dialogical Self Theory (DST) and the dialogical view of the relationship of author and hero in aesthetic forms by Mikhail Bakhtin in literary studies. By virtue of its interdisciplinary nature, VFP evaluates self-narratives and identifies the possible dialogical participation and coalition of the protagonists’ positions as “I-as-artist/ novelist” and “I-as-the-hero-of-my-story” amongst other positions in the novel. …”
