History/Military In the Grip of Minos: Confessional Discourse in Dante, Corneille, and Racine
Posted on 2010-03-16

More Matthew J. Senior, "In the Grip of Minos: Confessional Discourse in Dante, Corneille, and Racine" “An interesting and intellectually adventurous book on an important subject . . . a vigorous piece of work that at its best creates genuine intellectual excitement.” —Peter Brooks, Yale University “The work is well written, original, scholarly. It offers the academic community both a cogent, compelling reading of a sociohistoric phenomenon and the interweaving of the phenomenon with some of the major canonic texts of the Western tradition.” —Mitchell Greenberg, Miami University Tracing the history of confession from the Desert Fathers through the Lateran decree (1215) and the Council of Trent (1543–63),Matthew Senior examines the significance of these events and the role of confessional discourse in works by Dante, Corneille, and Racine. Using a multidisciplinary approach, Senior focuses his study on Minos, the legendary king of Crete and judge of both Homer’s and Virgil’s underworlds. Dante transforms Minos into a demon who forces the souls of the damned to confess as they enter the underworld; likewise, the ritual of confession opens the gates of Purgatory. Dante’s afterlife, according to Senior, is an extrapolation of the Lateran decree, a total vision of humanity governed and punished by its own verity. Following Trent, a new mode of confession makes its appearance, a baroque discourse in which “the heart speaks to the heart.” Senior argues that Corneille similarly creates a new kind of hero who distinguishes himself as much by the confessional trial of self-statement as by his military exploits. In the work of Racine, Senior notes, Minos appears again, tormenting the conscience of Phedre. Throughout Senior’s challenging inquiry, major canonical texts are illuminated by the contemporary debate about the modern equivalent of confession—psychoanalysis. Senior engages the work of Freud, Lacan, Foucault, and the Lacanian feminists in an attempt to establish the religious and literary genealogy of psychoanalysis and to explore its potential as a critical tool and, more important, its ability to bind and loose men and women. Enjoy this great book! Brought to you by SMIRK
