Title: Identity and Cultural Memory in the Fiction of A.S. Byatt: Knitting the Net of Culture

Author, co-author: Steveker, Lena

Abstract: This study provides innovative readings of the key texts of A.S. Byatt's oeuvre by analysing the negotiations of individual identity, cultural memory, and literature which inform Byatt's novels. The book explores the concepts of identity constructed in the novels, showing them to be deeply rooted in British literary history and cultural memory.
