Notes: This work is a short story from the 1940s and can be compared to the contemporary
“Zero” and “Asylum in the Snow” in its defamiliarization and theme of mental instability.
Possibly a comment on Gilman’s “The Yellow Wallpaper.” An original source publication is not
given in the book, although the introduction to the anthology loosely alludes to all the works as
previously published. This likely refers to the publication of the piece in Masterpiece of Thrills.

Mellard, Joan. “The Unity of Lawrence Durrell’s Alexandria Quartet.” Linguistics in Literature 1, no. 1
(1975): 77-143.
Notes: Mellard uses a variety of linguistic analyses to demonstrate unity in Durrell’s Alexandria
Quartet. Based around an archetypal framework for reading the novels, she uses lexical
accounts and collocations to show unity among the volumes, as well as the importance of the
lexical groups formed around the archetypally loaded images of the mirror, circle or mask,
bubble and water. This analysis is especially effective in connecting the mirror in Justine to
water in Clea, as well as emphasizing death and rebirth imagery as a cohesive whole throughout
the volumes.

Vipond, Dianne L. “Art, Artist, Ans Aesthetics In Lawrence Durrell’s Alexandria Quartet.” diss., York
University, 1980.
Abstract: Lawrence Durrell’s Alexandria Quartet is a Kunstlerroman in which the protagonist
and narrator, L. G. Darley, engages in a quest for selfhood and artisthood. Darley seeks selfunderstanding through an examination of his Alexandrian past in Justine, Balthazar,
Mountolive, and Clea. By exercising his art he learns the lessons of love and life as he gains
deeper insight into his relationships with the three women in his life: Melissa (love as
compassion); Justine (love as passion); and Clea (love as sharing). Darley learns the lessons of
art primarily through his own experience as an apprentice artist and his association with the
successful novelist, Pursewarden, who becomes his model and mentor.
Darley writes Justine in an attempt to understand the significance of his affair with Justine
Hosnani. The subject is personal and leads to a subjective account of his past which borders on
solipsism. Balthazar’s Interlinear enables Darley to put people and events in perspective and
precipitates a second effort, Balthazar, which emphasizes the importance of relative point of
view. In Mountolive, Darley takes an objective stance while seeking to portray the public and
political counterpart to his private Alexandria. With Clea, he returns to a more tempered
subjective standpoint and while maintaining the validity of relativity introduces a hint of
mysticism into his world view.
Durrell employs the narrative device of Darley’s artistic apprenticeship as a framework
within which he is free to work out his own aesthetic system. Primarily through the characters
of Darley and Pursewarden, Durrell puts forward his views about art, the artist, and aesthetics.
Durrell sees the artist as a healer of the psyche, one who is capable of presenting his own
special vision of reality to an audience and thus enriching lives by bringing greater meaning
and understanding into them. The function of art is to create values, to help men make sense of
themselves and the world around them, to enable them to make responsible ethical and moral
decisions. Art is freedom and should affirm life. Art yields a special kind of truth which utilizes
reason and intuition via the imagination to achieve an analogue of truth, the artifact. Art may
give form to intuitive knowledge or abstract concepts by transforming feeling into form and
communicating thought via symbols. Art reflects reality through the consciousness of the artist
and displays truth in the very process of “coming to know.” Durrell offers a new means of
approaching “reality”—a composite of appearances enlightened by imagination. He resolves
the conflict between appearance and reality by using the former to depict the latter. Form
should reflect content in a true work of art. Durrell attempts to give artistic form to the
scientific concept of space-time, an essential element of perspective or point of view, one of
Durrell’s major concerns within The Quartet. The artist’s position in space and time relative to
his subject determines where he falls on a continuum of perception which has subjectivity at
one end and objectivity at the other. Psychological time, memory acting upon the present
moment yielding one continuous present, is the time most appropriate to the literary artist.
Durrell has extended the tradition of the Kunstlerroman to the bounds of the self-begetting
reflexive novel. His main achievement lies in having managed to sustain a prolonged discussion
67
gifford@uvic.ca
of aesthetics while successfully incorporating these primary artistic concerns into the basic
narrative structure of his novel. Durrell, more than any other novelist, has given aesthetic
theory an integral position within his fiction in The Alexandria Quartet and in so doing helped
to legitimize such a combination of theory and fiction.

Elefant-Dietz, Anny Catherine. “The Minotaur in Twentieth Century Literature.” Diss., New York
University, 1981.
Abstract: One of the main functions of contemporary mythopoesis is the recreation of ancient
myths to conform with man’s needs and possibilities. As a result, contemporary writers invite
their readers to interpret their experiences in the light of ancient myths. One such myth is that
of the Minotaur, the monstrous half-man, half-bull hybrid, resident of Daedalus’ artifice—the
Labyrinth.
The aim of this dissertation is the study of the meanings and functions of the Minotaur and
its various patterns and representations in selected works of twentieth century literature. The
analysis of the myth of the Minotaur and its central figure is undertaken from a comparative
point of view and is based upon Jung’ analytical psychology wherever possible and feasible.
Consequently, the figure of the Minotaur is treated as an archetype, i.e., “a psychic content
which has not been submitted to conscious elaboration.” (Jung) The sequence of divisions and
of the works included in this study follow the Jungian concept of “individuation process” and
the stadial development of ego-consciousness explored by the Jungian scholar and analyst,
Erich Neumann.
As an archetype, the Minotaur is irrepresentable and undefinable except when it is filtered
through consciousness and is projected as an archetypal image upon events or elements of
nature. While in itself a constant, unchanging, and eternal reality, its representations are
innumerable, bearing the imprint of the individual who is projecting it. As a result, the
Minotaur can be conceived as a pharmakos (sacrificial victim) or repressed alter-ego as in the
works of Andre Gide: Thesee, Julio Cortazar: Los reyes, and to a certain extent in that of Jorge
Luis Borges: La casa de Asterion. It can also be projected as a recognized and assimilated alterego as in Nikos Kazantzakis’ Kouros, Anais Nin’s Seduction of the Minotaur, and Lawrence
Durrell’s The Dark Labyrinth. The Minotaur may similarly appear as the destructive Magna
Mater (Albert Camus: Le Minotaur ou la halte d’Oran) or as introjector of man’s limitations and
his lack of freedom (Emilio Carballido: Theseus and Abelardo Arias: Minotauroamor.)

Notes: Though Durrell is credited as ‘Introducting’ the book in some bibliographic references,
the introduction is by Marian Engels and only uses the first four sentences from Reflections on a
Marine Venus to broach the idea of ‘islomania,’ which is used throughout the book. Faber &
Faber is cited as granting permission for use of the text, so Durrell may or may not have been
aware of it.

Fordham, Glenn Wayne Jr. “The Psychological Orientation Towards Growth in Lawrence Durrell’s The
Alexandria Quartet.” diss., Univesity of North Texas, 1981.
Abstract: In this dissertation I argue that in the characters in Lawrence Durrell’s The
Alexandria Quartet there is consistently evidenced a psychological orientation towards growth.
An introductory Chapter One surveys and a concluding Chapter Six summarizes the
dissertation, but the body of the text is four chapters demonstrating the growth-orientation in
four characters.
To begin Chapter Two, “Darley’s Growth,” I recount the plot of the Quartet relevant to the
love affairs of its hero, Lawrence Darley. I then demonstrate that, in brief, the Quartet asserts
that the human psyche shares with all life an orientation towards growth. Customarily, the
psyche is urged by sexual instincts towards love relationships, perhaps the Quartet’s most
common means of psychological development. Individual maturation is contained in and
reflects a universal process, consisting of both bright and dark principles of growth. Into the
psychological and universal growth processes, the artist has unique insight. In the character of
Darley the psychological growth process is relatively bright, for Darley has love affairs with
Melissa, Justine, and Clea, and the Quartet ends with Darley’s artistic fulfillment. To conclude
Chapter Two, I represent Darley’s growth by examining four of his descriptions of landscape in
which he characterizes the growth process. In one description, Darley portrays nature as
mechanistically dictating human will. In another, Darley views the psyche as growing by
incorporating primarily pleasurable experiences. In a third, Darley emphasizes the dark or
destructive aspects of psychological behavior. Finally, in a sequence involving the wounding of
Clea, Darley realizes that both positive and negative experiences further psychological growth.
In Chapter Three, “Narouz’s Evil,” I examine the darker side of the growth process. I begin
the chapter by considering dark principles of growth in various characters, including
Capodistria, who states that the universal process has both dark and light principles. The body
of Chapter Three relates the unhappy story of Narouz, whose love for Clea is unrequited and
whose life ends psychologically unfulfilled. Despite his unhappy life, I demonstrate that
Narouz’s psyche is clearly oriented towards the bright principles of growth.
In my brief Chapter Four, “Justine’s Guilt,” I show how Justine’s nymphomania, associated
with her having been raped as a child, is the result of a frustration of growth. Justine is freed
from her guilt-ridden and compulsive mental illness by acknowledging her natural impulse
towards the healthy assimilation of even undesirable experiences.
To begin Chapter Five, “Pursewarden’s Death,” I identify death as the natural resolution of
the growth process. I then consider how even the suicide of Pursewarden is seen to deliberately
effect psychological growth in others. Stressing his emphasis on self-autonomy, I argue that, as
a matured artist, Pursewarden is the Quartet’s primary symbol of the self; and in the
concluding portion of the chapter, I show how Pursewarden’s character reflects a fulfilled
psyche, formed of bright and dark principles of growth, which principles I tangentially equate
with Durrell’s concept of ultimate or “heraldic reality.”
Scholars have frequently noted that Durrell portrays the psyche as variable rather than
fixed. In this dissertation, I demonstrate that, besides remarkable flexibility, Durrell’s
characters consistently display a psychological orientation towards growth.

Doutis, Demetrius Evangelos. “The Image Of Greece In The Works Of Six British And American
Authors.” Diss., University of South Carolina, 1983.
Abstract: This study explores the aspects of Greece that are projected in the works of the
following authors, who at some time lived or are still living in Greece: Compton Mackenzie,
Lawrence Durrell, Patrick Leigh Fermor, Henry Miller, Kevin Andrews, and James Merrill. The
introduction deals with the development of the image of Greece in the nineteenth century. It
traces the beginning of the classical-romantic view of the country which is based in part on the
Hellenic classical past, and in part on Byron’s poems and his involvement in the Greek war of
independence. Parallel to this view develops a more realistic view of the country which,
however, remains secondary. Both the classical-romantic and the realistic views of Greece are
traced in the works of the more prominent English and American writers who visited Greece
and wrote about their experiences there in the nineteenth as well as in the twentieth century.
In the main body of the dissertation a chapter is devoted to the works of each of the authors
mentioned above. Although some stylistic matters are considered, the emphasis is on the image
74
gifford@uvic.ca
of the country revealed in the works of each writer. Detailed consideration is given to the
national characteristics of the Greeks and to the Greek landscape. The attitude of each author
toward the country is examined as well as his involvement or isolation from the local culture,
and his awareness of social, economic, and political matters. Finally, what Greece means to
each writer and what effect the country has had on his work are discussed. The study concludes
with a comparison of the six authors’ views on certain topics which contribute to the formation
of a country’s image: landscape, character of the people, history, politics, and culture.

Meier, Candice Sue. “Reality and Truth in The Alexandria Quartet.” Thes., Drake University, 1983.
Abstract: Lawrence Durrell’s Alexandria Quartet has been criticized from a variety of
viewpoints—mostly unfavorable ones. These viewpoints encompass blatant misreadings, and
misunderstandings as well as quoting out of context and ignoring Durrell’s own statements
concerning his work. When The Quartet is studied in conjunction with Durrell’s own remarks
given in various interviews, one discovers that most of the unflattering critiques totally
disregard what Durrell says he intends to do, and what I feel he has successfully
accomplished.Once Durrell’s statements are aligned with his work, the focus of the material
acquires a particular slant—that of illusion. And once illusion is introduced, Durrell’s process
flows easily into the more abstract issue of determining reality and truth. Concisely stated,
Durrell’s theme follows a thread from characters of contradictory traits, to illusion, to reality,
and ultimately, to truth.Here the words reality and truth are not used in their traditional terms
and definitions. Instead, they appear by means of continuous examples and revelations in the
thoughts and actions of the characters as they interact with the world around them. Thus,
reality and truth are presented on personal levels, in a particular environment, within a
definite timeframe. However, Durrell’s implications strongly indicate a broader and much more
encompassing scale. The work ultimately takes on a world-wide, universal connotation and its
characters become prototypes for the world’s citizens. For readers and critics alike to dismiss
Durrell’s Alexandria Quartet on grounds of partial information and segmented studies is to do
the author and the work a great disservice. The work holds great value in its attempt to portray
the world as it is and people as they are. For novelists, including Durrell, this is a difficult task.
But because Durrell did it and did it so well, The Quartet has value to its readers and should not
die out as a result of the battering it has taken from numerous critics. It should be taken in its
entirety and read in conjunction with Durrell’s own statements. It then can be evaluated for its
own sake and more fairly ranked among other novels.

Zahlan, Anne Ricketson. “The Burden Slips: The Literary Expatriate In British Fiction, Before And After
World War II.” diss., The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 1983.
Abstract: From Kipling on, important British writers of the modern age have taken for
protagonist the Englishman outside England. Many novels of expatriation set their exiles down
in lands bound to Europe by ties of imperial dominion and thus form part of what can be
termed the fiction of colonial encounter, a fiction dominated by Kipling’s image of the White
Man who fearlessly takes up his burden and exercises authority accepted as rightfully his. The
imperial protagonist as portrayed before the winds of change began so irresistably to blow
might be hero or adventurer, benevolent father or greedy oppressor, but, whether glorified as
in T. E. Lawrence or parodied as in Evelyn Waugh, exposed as in Joyce Cary or condemned as in
George Orwell, he had always to be measured against the super-human dimensions of the
White Man. In the brave new world of self-determination which rose out of the ashes of World
War II, the bhwana, the tuan, the sahib were no more. The White Man ruling by means of his
indomitable will disappears from serious fiction as does too his anti-heroic opposite in whom
failure is deemed tragic or at least shameful. No longer expected to be master of other men or
of the natural world, the wandering Britons of Lawrence Durrell, Anthony Burgess, and Graham
Greene merely look on as old orders crumble or passively play parts assigned them in some
already devised ‘scenario.’ Using the post-colonial context as the stage upon which their
dramas unfold and expatriate Britons as the manipulated actors, these writers effectively
explore the ironies inherent in the situation of the super-annuated White Man caught
unprepared by the end of Empire. No longer ‘every inch an Englishman,’ much less ‘the man
who would be king,’ the expatriate protagonist of Durrell, Burgess, or Greene is a not unlikely
prototype of post-modern man, helpless to control even his own destiny. The expatriate
experience, however, far from ceasing to seize the imagination, may in fact be coming to
dominate it—everyman in some sense an expatriate, everywhere a place of exile.

Alexandria Quartet and His Travel Works.” Diss., Tulane University.
Notes: In addition to the bibliography, this dissertation contains a 200 page biography of
Durrell, the first biography in print.
Abstract: Lawrence Durrell has written in most of the genres of literature not just in an attempt
to find his metier, but in the act of satisfying his powerful creative urge. His works include
fiction, criticism, and travel literature, each undertaken in various degrees of seriousness, and
for various reasons, literary as well as monetary. The quality of Durrell’s work makes him
suitable for critical judgment as a novelist, and for commentary on the merit of his non-fiction
as well—especially his much celebrated travel recollections. Durrell’s fiction, criticism, and
non-fiction ofter merge in matters of style and diction, but they differ in matters of tone and
objectivity. This dissertation traces Durrell’s success as a writer as he moves through different
genres toward his masterpiece The Alexandria Quartet, and beyond. The first part reviews
Durrell’s contributions to literature in general, focusing on the quantity and variety of his
interests and accomplishments. His chronological development as a writer, traced through his
attempts to get his works published, provides the framework for this section. The second part
is an extensive analytical treatment of the critical responses to Durrell’s Quartet. Analyses detail
each author’s theme or argument, and make clear the themes, topics, faults, and the literary
significance of Durrell’s work. The third part analyzes Durrell’s major travel works, and
incorporates a critical discussion of the methodology he uses for travel literature, including
structure, fictional attributes and intentions. The point of reference for this section is Durrell’s
essay ‘Landscape and Character,’ in which he defines the ‘spirit of place’ as it affects his work.
These different approaches to Durrell’s work—biographical, bibliographical, and critical—make
possible a broader and better understanding of the author, his works, his accomplishments as a
whole, and the significance of his canon.

Dill, Janet E. “The Space-Time Novel As A Message Event: ‘Pursewarden’s Suicide.” Thes., York
University, 1985.
Abstract: In The Alexandria Quartet, Lawrence Durrell presents the ‘reality’ of events as a
‘paradox’ adopted from Einstein’s relativity theory. Since he adopts this view, events are not
presented in a linear manner, and their ‘reality’ depends upon the character’s space-time
frame. Each book in the Quartet adds a new dimension of knowledge and ‘new’ truths are added
to the reader’s perception of ‘what really happened and why it happened’. The result of these
accumulated viable messages is that the ‘truth’ of events becomes relative for the reader. The
purpose of this research is to investigate the viable messages which are retrieved from the
retelling of the same gnostological message event (Pursewarden’s Suicide) in order to see if it is
the ‘same’ tri-functionally (ideationally, interpersonally and textually). In addition, the
relationship between the discoursal process of retelling and relativity as it relates to this event
is examined.
The result of this investigation shows that the message event of Pursewarden’s suicide, realized
semiologically as an action-affective predication and its co-text in each of the four books of the
Quartet, constitutes a characteristic, tri-functionally unique discoursal instance each time the
event is retold.

Abstract: Lawrence Durrell’s major novel has not received the critical attention it deserves,
because often it is approached through the concepts of traditional realism, or is seen merely as
a literary expression of Einstein’s physical concepts. Durrell, however, is the heir of many
traditions; his work combines elements of classicism and experimentalism. Perhaps the term
‘arabesque’ describes more comprehensively Durrell’s art. This term is redefined and expanded
to include different characteristics of the Quartet: its metafictional nature, its spatial form (its
elimination of time), its baroque qualities, and its thematic and technical affinities with Arabic
story telling. Primarily, the dissertation is a close structural reading based on Gerald Genette’s
theory. Nevertheless, concepts from other poeticians, notably Tzvetan Todorov and Roland
Barthes, are employed to demonstrate Durrell’s arabesque art. The Introduction is a short
review of the prevailing critical approaches to the Quartet, and an explication of the
dissertation’s methodology. Chapter I and II analyze the intricate web of the novel’s temporal
scheme. Chapter I deals with the types of analepsis (flashbacks) in the text; Chapter II analyzes
the interaction among the types of prolepsis (flashforwards). These two chapters prove that the
constant re-interpretation of scene and the character’s metamorphoses from one narrative to
another are coherent and not melodramatic. Chapter III discusses the Quartet’s tempo
(rhythm). To define it, I examine the interaction between ‘duration’ (pause, scene, summary
and ellipsis) and ‘frequency’ (the presence of the iterative, singulative and repetitive modes).
Narrative tempo in Justine and Balthazar is erratic while in Mountolive and Clea it is regular.
Nevertheless, each type of tempo is compatible with the dominant vision in each narrative.
Chapter IV delineates the development of focus and voice in Darley’s narratives. The modal
pattern of the Quartet gradually changes, repudiates its experimental trend and takes on a
classical mode which is compatible in some of its significant aspects with Arabic story telling.
Beard, Pauline Winsome. “A Riddling Thing: A Study of Time in Five 20th Century Novels.” Diss., State
University of New York at Binghampton, 1986.
Abstract: The study explores why the time scales of novels after 1900 become fragmented, how
temporal settings shape the characters and events, how the readers’ culturally shared time
concepts shape the narrative structure. Involved with these investigations, the question is
raised why readers must move from passivity and take on the role of writers in the modern
novel.
Research involved analysing the human response to time from the earliest concepts to
modern day beliefs. The philosophies and theories of Bergson, Freud, Jung and Einstein were
studied to show their influence on the novelists, and on the readers’ expectations about
narrative structure. The five novels, Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury, Djuna Barnes’s
Nightwood, Durrell’s The Alexandria Quartet, Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse-Five, and Calvino’s If
on a winter’s night a traveler, were studied in depth for structural devices with forge coherent,
chronological time scales, and aid the reader in pushing the narrative forward. Each novelist
follows the beliefs of one, if not more, of the theorists of the age. Thus Faulkner adapts
Bergson’s duration theories; Djuna Barnes follows Jung’s dream-timelessness; Durrell plays
with an Einsteinian relativity; Vonnegut uses Freud’s method of free association in time, and
84
gifford@uvic.ca
Calvino melds a number of beliefs to demonstrate the plurality of time.
The study’s main result shows that as human beings become more time dominated, as they
move from the natural rhythms of the earth to the robotized dictates of technology and
science, narrative time becomes increasingly disrupted. As people lose control over outer-time,
(the novels suggest that only children and the insane believe they have control), the writer
seemingly abdicates control over his narrative-time, and the reader must play an active part in
constructing the time scale of the novel. The two world wars exacerbate the disruptive process;
the splitting of the atom and the nuclear bomb splinter man’s belief in continuity. Those people
who can see a measure of continuity in the human state, who come to terms with time and
accept its fragmentation and multiplicity, are most suitably equipped for surviving the postmodern age.

Lillios, Anna. “Love in Lawrence Durrell’s Alexandria Quartet.” Diss., University of Iowa, 1986.
Abstract: In the Note to Balthazar, Lawrence Durrell claims that ‘the central topic’ of the
Alexandria Quartet is ‘an investigation of modern love.’ Thus far, none of the major booklength studies of Durrell’s work has explored this topic nor the results. This thesis advances,
love affair by love affair, through the four novels of the Quartet and focuses on the cultural,
scientific, and philosophical aspects of the topic of love in Alexandria. Modern love in the
Quartet is composed of a wide range of sexual experience: from adultery, rape, child
prostitution, transvestitism, homosexuality, bisexuality, incest, rape, to amorous passion and
charitable affection. Each of the major characters in the Quartet embodies one or more of these
aspects of love and all, in common, are trapped by notions of love that are inextricably tied to
their own identities. They are caught in obsessive, self-delusive, and destructive patterns of
behavior from which they must escape in order to become complete individuals. Only Clea and
Darley succeed in this transformation. By the end of Clea they have become individual artists
whose primary identification is not defined or restricted by their love relationship. They have
achieved transcendence as artists, as well as human beings. The thesis also includes a personal
interview with Lawrence Durrell who indicates the Tantric Buddhist nature of Clea and Darley’s
quest. Through their passion for the same person—Justine—they burn away their egos and its
destructive illusions until they achieve a self-love, which is the opposite of egoism and
narcissism. Only then can they engage in Tantric lovemaking, by regarding each other in a cool,
detached way, and practice their separate arts. Furthermore, Durrell claims that Clea and
Darley will meet again and, in fact, they are ‘preparing to make a child.’

Fertile, Candace. “Love and Narrative in the Novels of Lawrence Durrell.” Diss., University of Alberta.
Notes: Ann Arbor: UMI, 1989. 0564256. (DAI 49: 3032A)
Abstract: This thesis traces Lawrence Durrell’s development as a novelist by examining the
theme of love and the narrative structure of the novels. Beneficial love for Durrell is essentially
adult, heterosexual, and procreative. It is a way to knowledge of the self and of others.
Formally, Durrell’s novels show a development from modernism to postmodernism, and the
form also demonstrates a concern with knowledge. The first chapter examines four
apprenticeship novels: Pied Piper of Lovers (1935), Panic Spring (1937), The Black Book (1938),
and The Dark Labyrinth (1947). Chapters Two and Three are on the theme and form of the
Alexandria Quartet, which consists of Justine (1957), Balthazar (1958), Mountolive (1958), and
Clea (1960). Chapter Four is on Tunc (1968) and Nunguam (1970), which together form The
Revolt of Aphrodite. Chapters Five and Six deal with the Avignon Quintet, which consists of
Monsieur: or The Prince of Darkness (1974), Livia: or Buried Alive (1978), Constance: or Solitary Practices
(1982), Sebastian: or Ruling Passions (1983), and Quinx: or The Ripper’s Tale (1985). The thesis also
contains an introduction and a brief conclusion.

Hall, Tessa F. “Lawrence Durrell’s The Alexandria Quartet: Conflicting Metaphysics and the Escape From
Alexandria.” Diss., University of Oxford, 1988.
Notes: DAI No.: BRD-97255.
Abstract: This thesis is a study of Lawrence Durrell’s The Alexandria Quartet, based on an
analysis of the role of Alexandria in the work. It proceeds from the premise that the Quartet is a
bildungsroman in which the city, Alexandria, operates as a textual metaphor for what is
experienced and rejected in the process of growing up.
The first sections set out to establish the major features of the Alexandrian metaphor
through an analysis of imagery, characterization and narrative patterning; the city’s
association with a certain type of romanticism and with Gnosticism is emphasized. There is also
an examination of the internal, or psychic, dimensions of the Alexandrian metaphor, which are
found to be consistent with a Freudian perspective on personality growth, despite the author’s
preference for vitalist theories.
The work then proceeds to focus on the contradictory textual metaphysics which emerge
from a close reading of the Quartet. Two separate and, it is argued, incompatible sets of
metaphysics are identified: one associated with the development of the Alexandrian metaphor,
and the other with the ‘heraldic’ theme in the work. The disruptive effect of this conflict on
textual unity is identified.
The final section is an analysis of Durrell’s critical work, The Key to Modern British Poetry
(written during the gestation period of the Quartet), including a considered study of Durrell’s
supposed arguments from Einsteinian science. The Key proves to be founded, like the Quartet,
on metaphysical contradictions; however, it also usefully reveals Durrell’s considerable anxiety
about modernism as a literary phenomenon and a world-view. This produces the suggestion
that the conflicting metaphysics within the Quartet can be understood in the light of Durrell’s
ambivalence towards modernism and its animating themes.

Abstract: While Post-Modern man has begun to doubt whether reality has any inherent
discernable order, there are many who believe that a will-to-order and a need for moral
orientation is a fundamental part of the human makeup. In light of the discoveries of modern
science, the quest for a coherent set of guidelines for human endeavor seems to require a
metamorphosis of perception. John Fowles, Margaret Drabble, and Lawrence Durrell have
followed D. H. Lawrence in seeking enlightenment in the wisdom of the past. Their quest has
94
gifford@uvic.ca
led them from field theory to the philosophies of Heraclitus and Empedocles. With these
philosophies come the values of the ancient goddess religions of the Mediterranean which
inspired them. From this expanded perspective, these writers have shaped the complex
patterns of interrelationships which make up the contemporary world into fictional worlds
whose values may be used as models to guide human endeavor. The resulting vision, whole
sight, resembles the vision of McCluhan’s retribalized man. The discussion begins with a
detailed investigation of the philosophies of Empedocles and Heraclitus, their relationship to
the values of the autochthonous religions of the Mediterranean, and the historical background
which suggests that this approach provides the insight required to achieve a metamorphosis of
cultural values. Focusing on The Magus and Daniel Martin, the second chapter investigates
John Fowles’s use of the values and philosophies of the ancient world to achieve whole sight
through a re-evaluation of sexual roles. The third chapter discusses each of the novels of
Margaret Drabble as part of an evolutionary change from the values of Bunyan to those of
Heraclitus. Realms of Gold and The Radiant Way receive special attention. The final chapter
investigates Durrell’s Avignon Quincunx, especially his assessment that the continued
adherence to Aryan values in the West is psychotic. It discusses Durrell’s strategies for
attaining the metamorphosis of values which he sees as a requirement of mankind’s survival.
The dissertation concludes that Fowles, Drabble, and Durrell are attempting to turn Western
culture toward a tribal and life-centered view of the world, toward the practice of whole sight.

MacDonald, Ann Carton. “ Spirit of Place: The Role of Landscape in the Poetry of Lawrence Durrell.”
Thes., Carleton University.
Abstract: This thesis interprets the central theme in Lawrence Durrell’s poetry as the
relationship between landscape and the growth of the self. Chapter One outlines his theory of
place as a literary criterion and indicates that through art he aims to evoke a condition of
mystical one-ness he calls heraldic reality. Chapter Two illustrates that the rebellion in
Durrell’s early work represents his desire to transcend the ego, chronology and reason. Chapter
Three delineates his belief that the self can grow beyond ambiguity and pain. Chapter Four
links personal growth and the creative process and examines the parallel between the religious
dimension in Durrell’s poetry and his receptivity to landscape. Chapter Five explores the poet’s
resolution of despair and his affirmation of the healing power of love in his later poetry. The
final chapter reveals that he belongs to that branch of modern literature aligned with the
comic vision.

Lawrence Durrell’s Alexandria Quartet.” Thes., Northeast Missouri State University.
Notes: The university has since changed its name to Truman State University.
Abstract: In The Alexandria Quartet Lawrence Durrell creates a city and a set of characters which
reflect his ideas about the modern age. Using Einstein’s theory of relativity as a metaphor for
an intensely subjective world where reality depends on one’s position in space and time,
Durrell posits a theory of indeterminancy which seems like Michel Foucault’s in The History of
Sexuality. Durrell’s beliefs are, however, bound in deterministic theories about gender
distinctions and inequalities from natural science and psychoanalysis. He uses post-Victorianearly modernist visions of women as femme fatales and dangerous ‘others,’ as described by
Sandra Gilbert and Susan Gubar in No Man’s Land Sex-changes, grouping women with what postimperialists viewed as the ‘feminized’ colonial nations of the East. His late nineteenth and early
twentieth century beliefs limit his ideas about relativity and his vision of the latter half of the
twentieth century as a world of infinite possibilities.

Kaufman, Barbara. “Once Upon A Time: Training Tales in Family Therapy.” Diss., Nova University, 1992.
Abstract: The current guidelines for accredited marital and family therapy programs,
established by the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy’s Commission on
Accreditation (AAMFT COA), specify that students be taught the major epistemological issues in
the field. While acknowledging the significance of epistemological issues, these guidelines do
not specify what these issues are or how to teach them. Live supervision is most often
considered the method of choice in facilitating an understanding of new epistemological
concepts for family therapy graduate students. This researcher identifies a gap in the
development of alternate approaches to training in the new epistemologies outside the context
of live supervision. In order to address this gap, literature is proposed as one way to enhance
graduate students’ abilities to understand complex ecosystemic approaches to therapeutic
interaction.
This project investigates whether excerpts from a novel can be useful for conveying new
epistemological concepts to family therapy doctoral students. This researcher designs a
didactic module based upon passages from Lawrence Durrell’s (1961a, 1961b, 1961c, 1961d) The
Alexandria Quartet for this purpose. The Quartet is chosen for the project as representative of
new epistemological concepts, conveying the richness of multiple voices and a lack of certainty
about predictable outcomes.
Support for the project is provided by an outline of the critical epistemological issues that
influence the practice and training of family therapy practitioners, an overview of family
therapy training programs, and a survey of how literary formats are used to illustrate a variety
of theoretical premises in the field. In conjunction with the upsurge of interest in the new
epistemologies, alternate methods for evaluation of training activities are then suggested. Indepth interviews with family therapy doctoral students who have experienced the module
result in a thematic analysis and provide a narrative understanding of this particular training
experience, creating an opportunity to examine a context other than live supervision for
understanding new epistemological concepts. The implications of the students’ narrative
themes thereby offer a basis for evaluating how literature can be useful in facilitating an
106

epistemological shift that is frequently a challenge to family therapy graduate students and
educators.

Bratcher, Joe Warlick III. “An Alexandrian Trio: Three Anti-Foundational Readings of Lawrence
Durrell’s ‘Alexandria Quartet’.” Diss, University of Texas, Austin, 1993.
Abstract: In my dissertation I intend to develop three analytic readings of the Alexandria
Quartet, which I shall regard as an exemplary model text that allows one to locate and
articulate theoretical problems associated with the new historicism, deconstruction and
Marxism. In particular, I intend to focus on such central proponents of these schools as Stephen
Greenblatt, Paul de Man and Fredric Jameson. My approach will be metacritical and will rely
upon current logically based theories deriving from antifoundationalist thinking, which allows
me to construct my primary conceptual tool for exploring, with the Alexandria Quartet as my
vehicle, what I perceive to be central theoretical problems in current critical practice.
My primary conceptual tool is a binary dynamics involving activity and passivity relevant to
the above schools and to the Alexandria Quartet. With Greenblatt, for instance, the process
involves circulation and exchange, with de Man the incompatibility of literal and rhetorical
reading and with Jameson the dialectical interplay between a text and its political unconscious.
108
gifford@uvic.ca
And the exchange between active and passive response can be located in the Alexandria
Quartet as, among other things, the desire to control ones own destiny or the willingness to
give oneself over to forces beyond ones control. My argument is that Durrell’s treatment of this
desire, or this willingness, suggests a set of epistemological perspectives which would draw
each of these three critics to the Alexandria Quartet as a pardigmatic object for literary
analysis. The problem arises in that each of these styles of literary criticism is ultimately
foundational in nature and therefore runs into the hermeneutic and historicist quandaries that
have sent contemporary critical movements practically into Durrell’s desert.

Abstract: Analysis, through five chapters, of Anais Nin’s (1903-1977) three first fictional works
from the point of view of the configuration of her literary theory, and with the aim of
providing a new reading of these works and of reevaluating their literary value. As an
introduction, in the first chapter, “Preliminary Notes”, certain aspects of Nin’s biography are
discussed which are relevant to the configuration of her view of literature (“Some Biographical
Considerations”), followed by information about the publication of her fictional works (“Nin’s
Literary Production”). Chapter two is devoted to the study of the most important influences on
the author and on her view of literature. The criteria determining the selection of these
influences is the relevant place that the author herself has given them in her Diary and in her
essays. These influences are: the Diary, understood both as her “other way of writing”, that is, a
distinct literary genre, and, at the same time, as the work that actually brought about the
public’s recognition as a consecrated writer. On the other hand, the Diary is considered as a
beneficial and at the same time hindering influence, both technically and psychologically, in
each of the two aforementioned aspects. In the second place, a study of the Diary is presented,
in so far as it represents an influence of primary importance for the author, both in relation to
her view of reality, and to her literary perspective. The most important authors are dealt with,
as well as her relationship with Otto Rank, the most relevant of her analysts. Thirdly, the study
focuses on the French heritage, especially on the influence of Marcel Proust, and also on that of
Arthur Rimbaud and the Surrealists. In the fourth place, D. H. Lawrence’s influence is analyzed,
an author on whom Nin wrote her first book. Finally, the influence of two literary personalities
is analyzed, two authors whose friendship was of great importance in the personal and literary
development of the author: Henry Miller and Lawrence Durrell.
The study of the first three fictional works that Nin published is undertaken, then, from the
point of view of the influences previously analyzed. Therefore, the exhaustive analysis of
“House of Incest” (Chapter III), “Winter of Artifice” (Chapter IV) and the collection of short
stories “Under a Glass Bell” (Chapter V), is meant to reevaluate their literary importance
through the clarification of the author’s aims, thematic as well as stylistic, understood as the
configuration of her literary theory as the author herself enunciates them in her Diary and
essays, and as a consequence of the influences previously explored.

Naguib Mahfouz (Egypt).” Diss., University of Michigan, 1996.
Notes: DAI: DA9610235
Abstract: This study is an attempt to see how colonial and postcolonial discourses produce the
social fabric of mid-twentieth-century Egypt. By examining city space in novels of the period
this study aims to explore how colonial and postcolonial discourses articulate everyday
practices. The theoretical thesis, derived from Henri Lefebvre’s insights into the production of
space, is that attention to everyday spaces can reveal obscured social relationships.
In three chapters on three writers prominent in British colonial, Egyptian Francophone and
Egyptian Arabic literary circles, I explore how space reveals the colonial-colonized encounter.
Chapter One, “The Decay of Order: Late Colonial Space in Lawrence Durrell’s Alexandria
Quartet” (Justine, Balthazar, Mountolive, Clea, published 1957-60) argues that the narrative
depends on colonial spaces constructed according to ordering representations and colonized
spaces constructed according to the dynamic interplay of forces. Chapter Two, “The Harem and
the Sea: Women’s Space in Out el-Kouloub’s Le Coffret hindou, Ramza and Hefnaoui le
Magnifique,” (texts published 1951-61) examines how Out el-Kouloub, an important but
neglected member of Egypt’s once-thriving Francophone community, constructs gendered
spaces to articulate a sophisticated critique of both traditional and Western affective practices.
Chapter Three, “Space and the Malaise of the City in Naguib Mahfouz’s Midaq Alley, Cairo
Trilogy and Miramar,” argues that close attention to Mahfouz’s spaces allows one to see the
roles money, ideology, religion and custom play in producing Egyptian “urban malaise.”
It emerges from the analysis that colonial and postcolonial literary spaces employ different
ordering schemes which channel practice differently. The major argument of the study is,
therefore, that the disjunction between different spaces leads to debacle as practices
corresponding to one space unwittingly exceed the limits of another. The significance of this
study, beyond proposing revisionary readings of Durrell and Out el-Kouloub and providing a
new perspective on Mahfouzian “urban malaise,” lies in the light it sheds on how literary
spaces reveal the deployment of cultural codes. The potential for decentered space to reveal
postcolonial relational discourses as opposed to reaffirming an imperious ordering of
privileged subjectivity makes space an increasingly useful tool in cultural critique.

Notes: Durrell is discussed and quoted only once in the book, at the beginning of the first
chapter; however, Sutton is careful to show the relationship between his work’s sense of
history and that which Durrell discusses in Reflections on a Marine Venus. Specifically, Durrell’s
sense of historic ‘plagiarism’ is juxtaposed to Santayana’s contention that if one does not know
history, one will repeat it—Sutton places his critical apparatus for the book in Durrell’s sense of
plagiarism, rather than repetition.

University, 2000.
Notes: DAI: LXI-4-1416
Abstract: This project examines the representation of non-western cultures in selected
twentieth-century novelists from Britain and the United States. Edward Said’s study of the
ideological purposes often shaping such representations informs my work, but I am
particularly interested in ethnographic issues and how modernist critiques of western
modernity are only occasionally accompanied by a greater respect for and appreciation of nonwestern cultures. By concentrating on elements in the novels that indicate the authors’ central
concerns in depicting non-western cultures, I explore the ways in which their attitudes and
approaches either inhibit or facilitate a further understanding of such cultures. The work of
three novelists is considered in each of three central chapters which are based on the region
providing the immediate setting for the novels: Joseph Conrad’s Lord Jim (1900), E. M. Forster’s A
Passage to India (1924), and Anthony Burgess’s The Long Day Wanes (1964) in East Asia; Frederic
Prokosch’s The Asiatics (1935), Paul Bowles’s The Sheltering Sky (1949), and Lawrence Durrell’s The
Alexandria Quartet (1962) in the Middle East; and D. H. Lawrence’s The Plumed Serpent (1926),
Malcolm Lowry’s Under the Volcano (1947), and Jay Cantor’s The Death of Che Guevara (1983) in
Latin America. While my analysis identifies the generalized assumptions, stereotypes, and
contrived polarizations that are frequently used to represent non-western cultural traditions, I
give special attention to the works challenging or suggesting alternatives to these conventions.
The novels of Forster, Prokosch, and Lowry develop perceptive, sympathetic approaches to
non-western cultural histories and values that respond to such cultures rather than simply
move away from or criticize the West through them. And in the work of these authors I find the
most suggestive insights for moving beyond the ethnocentrism of western modernity and
modernism.

Keller, Isabelle. “L’Anamorphose Dans L’Oeuvre Romanesque De Lawrence Durrell.” Diss., Université de
Toulouse-Le Mirail, 2002.
Abstract: L’étude de l’anamorphose dans l’écriture romanesque de Lawrence Durrel propose, à
partir de l’analyse détaillée de The Alexandria Quartet et de The Avignon Quintet, une clé de lecture
de l’oeuvre durrellienne dans son ensmeble qui permette de rendre compte tant de sa
complexité que de sa diversité. La comparaison du traitement de la description dans les deux
romans met en évidence un brouillage délibérér de l’espace comme des protagonistes, qui
deviennent autant d’indices de lecture. Après avoir erré au coeur de cette cartographie
inquiétante qui se dédouble et se fragmente, le lecteur se trouve donc incité à rechercher l’axe
qui lui permettra de reconstruire la perspective brisée. Les jeux guident alors le travail de
recolposition. Le lecteur, tentant de redresser la perspective, découvre alors la nature
profondémént trompeuse de toute reconstruction définitive et univoque. L’oeuvre s’écrit ainsi
“entre les lignes, entre les vies”: celle du Quatuor et du Quintette, mais aussi celles de The Black
Book, The Revolt of Aphrodite, An Irish Faustus ou des poèmes.
The study of anamorphosis in Lawrence Durrell’s novels probes into The Alexandria Quartet
and The Avignon Quintet in order to descry Durrell’s complex literary work. The compared
analysis of the handling of description in both novels evinces a deliberate blurring of space and
characterization, which hint to a specific mode problematic as we move from The Quartet to The
Quintet, shape out our reconstruction of the pattern. The reader in search of the corrected
perspective consequently discovers both the vanity of a merely mimetic representation and the
delusive nature of any definite and univocal reading. Durrell’s work has to be read “between
the lines, between the lives”: those of The Quartet and The Quintet, as well as those of The Black
Book, The Revolt of Aphrodite, An Irish Faustus or the poems. Durrell’s writting is then born from
141

these vanishing traces which keep spreading out, overlapping and migrating from one texte to
the next, from one genre to another.

Cosmopolitanism.” Diss., University of California, Los Angeles, 2004.
Abstract: This dissertation brings to bear current debates about cosmopolitanism and hybridity
on the overlooked area of Middle Eastern cosmopolitanism, through the representative case
study of Alexandria. Comparing discourses of cultural identity associated with the city, I
identify two central problems with the dominant paradigm of Alexandrian cosmopolitanism: a
Eurocentric approach to historiography and canon formation that elides Arab elements, and an
insufficient attention to the materiality of the city as it features in writings about Alexandria.
In re-appraising this cosmopolitan archive, the study deconstructs the perceived consistency of
“canonical” Alexandrian texts, sets western modernity against alternative modernities,
analyzes genre in relation to the representation of hybridity, and maps in non-complicit,
popular paradigms of cosmopolitanism.
Chapter 1 deals with the ambivalence in Constantine Cavafy’s texts effected by the tension
between a binary of Greek and Barbarian and a far more cosmopolitan attitude attuned to
otherness and other textualities. The discussion then turns to E. M. Forster’s Egyptian writings
in Chapter 2 where I analyze a colonial complicity in the historiography and representation of
space in his account of the city and its cosmopolitanism, and contrast this against his
simultaneous sympathy with subalternity. In chapter 3, I dwell on the hybridity in Lawrence
Durrell’s Alexandria Quartet and bring out underlying patterns that make for what the text
construes as Alexandria’s threatening space, witnessed in the representation of topography
and myths. Broaching the question what place cosmopolitanism has in the postcolonial

Kharrat charts it “contrapuntally” articulated modes of inter-ethnic and inter-religious
affiliation that subvert Eurocentric canonical texts, as well as tap into resources, such as orality,
elided in earlier representations.
It is hoped that this study will make a contribution to two sets of debates: discussions of
cosmopolitanism in the west where the Middle East nevertheless remains the “other,” and
Middle Eastern bids for inter-cultural dialogue where the reclamations of Alexandria’s archive
are perplexed by its colonial freighting.

Giovannucci, Perri. “The Modernizing Mission: Literature and Development in North Africa.” Diss.,
University of Miami, 2005.
Abstract: Contemporary Western modernization in the East reifies many aspects of classic
European colonialism. Modernization largely privileges Western multinational interests at the
expense of local or indigenous concerns in the so-called “developing” nations of the East. The
150
gifford@uvic.ca
colonial history of the discourse and practices of modern development may be traced in the
seminal texts of anti-colonial and postcolonial literature, such as in works by Frantz Fanon,
Albert Memmi and Jean-Paul Sartre, as well as in the fiction and memoirs of Albert Camus,
Lawrence Durrell, Naguib Mahfouz, Nawal El Saadawi, Assia Djebar, Gini Alhadeff, Andre
Aciman and Edward Said. These authors represent in their texts the later colonial history of
development (i.e., middle twentieth century) in the North African nations of Algeria and Egypt.
Their works illustrate that modern development has entailed Western military violence,
foreign domination and economic exploitation in the East. They provide a detailed and, as with
Said, Alhadeff and Aciman, even an intimate view of a particular aspect of modernization: the
privileging of a local elite class (compradors) by Western agents to the disadvantage of the
impoverished, local majority in North Africa. The development and maintenance of elites in
Algeria and Egypt makes apparent the intervention of foreign colonial agency; but it also belies
the (fallacious) assumption that “modern development” will eventually “trickle down” from
elites to the impoverished masses in the East. The critical regard of unequal, modern
development provides a more complex understanding of the anti-colonial movements for
sovereignty and independence in North Africa. The revolutionary nationalism and nativism
which characterized the independence movements there may be seen to respond to the
disparate material conditions of local society which had been engendered by Western
modernization. The complexities of nativism and nationalism are evident in the works of
Carnus, Saadawi and Mahfouz, and others who, in the context of the anticolonial moment of
the day, thought deeply about issues of indigenity and national identity. Ultimately, the North
African authors discussed here sought to make an identity, if not also a place, for themselves in
a modern East rapidly “developing” its postcolonial condition.
