Philip Beitchman: The Play of the World and the Expiation of the Real: Acts, Approaches and Inebriations

The Play of the World and the Expiation of the Real: Acts, Approaches and Inebriations.   Palo Alto, Academica Press, 2015.  304 p., with index and bibliography.
 
These basically are essays in English and American (Shakespeare, Coleridge, William Burroughs), French (Sainte-Beuve, Proust, des Forêts, Villiers de l'Isle Adam), Russian (Solugub, Briusov, Bely) Literatures, with some ancillary divagations on medieval Cabala (Zohar) and contemporary. French theory (Baudrillard on 9/11).
 
For a more detailed Table of Contents, plus more description of what's inside, probably the best place to go to is Amazon (no endorsement implied!), where my publisher has made such information available.
