The whole work is conceived according to that complex structure of metamorphic overlap and transition from one state to another, hence there are several times in Proust: Time understood not only as a memory, but as a complex phenomenon dissected and objectified in all its manifestations. Hence we can consider Proust’s conception of the body that remembers, as opposed to the mind, which sets the past and the present according to the principle of metaphor or metamorphosis, that is, as a combination of two opposing points in time and as a transition of one matter into another. ![]() Although in his writing Proust is reminiscent of a phenomenologist trying to institute the primordial contact with the world and with the other, his Time is quite different from that of philosophers, because it is primarily fictionalized. For almost a century, Marcel Proust’s novel has provoked philosophical debates that tried to explain it according to one of the already known conceptions of Time: from French phenomenology to German idealism, from Bergson and Schopenhauer as contemporaries of Proust to Hegel and Husserl (Henry, 1981, 2000), and more recently Merleau-Ponty (Merleau-Ponty, 1945, 1961, 1964 Simon, 2000). ![]()

How terrible that must have been and how alone he must have felt. ![]() But in that moment of his bitter railing he must have felt betrayed and completely abandoned by his father, a father he’d always believed loved him deeply and absolutely. ![]() I know of no darker moment in the Bible than the moment Jesus in his agony on the cross cries out, ‘Father, why have you forsaken me?’ Darker even than his death not long after because in death Jesus at last gave himself over fully to the divine will of God. Not the glorious resurrection that we celebrate on Easter Sunday but the darkness that came before. “It isn’t Easter,” he said, “but this week has caused me to think a lot about the Easter story. ![]() ![]() ![]() "Lush and stunning…this sapphic fantasy will rip your heart out." - BuzzFeed News And they soon realize that coming together is the only way to save their kingdom from those who would rather see it burn-even if it will cost them.

After all, he's as smart as a Nobel Prize-winning blabbersnitch. Comparing two unlike things is apparently right up his alley. As Simile-filled as The Witchesīoy does Roald Dahl like himself some similes. Did we mention he uses a lot of exclamation points? Did we?! The playful style of The Witches makes it a lot of fun to read and, as always, keeps us feeling like kids, whether we are or not. To add to the playfulness, Roald Dahl uses a lot of words having to do with amazement, like "astonishing" (6.16) and "marvellous" (18.31). We also can't forget the made-up words that are then pronounced in a Grand High Witch accent, like "bogvumper" (8.34) and "grrrobblesqvirt" (9.41). ![]() Some of our favorites are tomfiddling (8.37), frumptious (8.55), and blabbersnitch (9.39). ![]() ![]() Roald Dahl is nothing if not playful, and we see this most clearly in his writing style.

Bobbi stumbles over three inches of metal, which unusually heavy spring runoff has left sticking out of the soil. It begins with a writer named Roberta Anderson, looking for firewood in the forest that stretches behind her house.
