Limiting interpretive possibilities in Beckett and Calvino. - 80 p.

Adviser: Eric Berlatsky.

Thesis (M.A.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2008.

Advances in literary studies have expanded the multitude of interpretations possible of a single work, perhaps too far. Positive progress from here requires constructing a way to avoid the chaos of an interpretive free-for-all without reverting to the debunked, totalizing systems of old. Limiting Interpretive Possibilities finds in Italo Calvino's If on a winter's night a traveler and Samuel Beckett's Molloy, Malone Dies, and The Unnamable the model for a combinatorial literature that respects the key, inalienable elements of author, reader, work, and universe. Any reading that fits into this framework is a "possible" interpretation of the work, while readings that deny one or more of these elements are "impossible." Ultimately, a literary work has room for all its possible interpretations, which co-exist in a combinatorial manner that accounts for even interpretations that have yet to emerge, ensuring that no new way of reading will fundamentally alter the original work.
