【简 介】This book is an exceptionally critical and insightful contribution to the scholarly discourse of suicidology. The book offers in-depth analyses of the conceptual evolution and various perspectives of suicide; a very detailed mapping of the conceptualisation of the critical idiom of 'Text'; explication of the theoretical contributions of Barthes, Derrida, Foucault and others; and analyses of suicides of immortalised characters, forgotten writers, and the culturally devoiced. The book locates the notion of 'Text' in a range of literary and cultural theories, from New Criticism to New Historicism, and explores the methodology of analysing enigmatic suicides as ‘Texts’ in and of themselves.
