Literary analysis examines kinship across generations in Faulkner's 'The Bear', suggesting complex ties between identity and place.
Abstract: “Kinship in ‘The Bear’ by William Faulkner” by Michel Butor appeared in the May 1956 edition of Les lettres nouvelles , one of the most important literary journals of its era in Paris. Polymath and novelist Michel Butor’s affinity for Faulkner issues from their common need to explore the entanglements of time, memory, history, identity, and place. To take on these issues, the essay on “The Bear” enlarges the notion of kinship. Butor shows how kinship can apply to different scales of time. No less than generations of families, there are also generations of races, communities, and creatures of the natural world.
