Lolita is a 1997 drama film directed by Adrian Lyne and is the second screen adaptation of the novel of the same name by Vladimir Nabokov.

V. Nabokov's Lolita as a Postmodernist Text: What makes Lolita a Postmodernist Text? Although Lolita, a book by the Russian emigre, Vladimir Nabokov, received a demoralizing public inimicality shortly after its publication in 1955, it has gained so far a prolific success among critics and researchers. It is acclaimed for its playful nature. It is the case study of miscellaneous readings and interpretations. My MA dissertation is one of those attempts to explore its contradictory, subversive, intertextual, parodic, ironic, and rhizomatic characteristics. The point is to show that our text is postmodernist par excellence. Its elusive and self-reflexive features back up its postmodernist trend, regardless of its unreliability, ambiguity,...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Lolita (1962) is an influential comedy-drama film by Stanley Kubrick based on the classic novel of the same title by Vladimir Nabokov. The film stars James Mason as Humbert Humbert, Sue Lyon as Dolores Haze (Lolita) and Shelley Winters as Charlotte Haze with Peter Sellers as Clare Quilty. Due to the MPAA's restrictions at the time, the film toned down the more perverse aspects of the novel, sometimes leaving much to the audience's imagination. The actress who played Lolita, Sue Lyon, was fourteen at the time of filming. Kubrick later commented that, had he realized how severe the censorship limitations were going to be, he probably never would have made the film. Данное издание...

Ce recueil réunit les premiers textes de prose écrits en anglais par l`auteur de Lolita mais également des nouvelles russes restées inédites, ou bien n`ayant pas refait surface depuis leur publication au début des années vingt, dans différents journaux émigrés de Berlin. Dans ces nouvelles, il flotte un air de nostalgie et haute poésie, et comme la prémonition que le rire et le lyrisme désenchanté sont les grandes figures de style d`une littérature de l`exil. Les protagonistes sont pour la plupart des artistes et des jeunes expatriés, partagés entre plusieurs lieux de résidence, Berlin, l`Angleterre, Zermatt, un port du sud de la France ou bien les...

Written in mischievous and magically flowing prose, "Ada or Ardor: A Family Chronicle" - Nabokov`s other great love story - offers even more sexual and imaginative surprises than Lolita. A romance that follows Ada from her first childhood meeting with Van on his uncle`s country estate, in a `dream-bright` America, through eighty years of rapture, Nabokov`s `longest, richest, most ambitious novel` also becomes, as Brian Boyd says, a great many other things: `myth, fairy tale, Utopian idyll, family chronicle, personal memoir, historical romance, erotic catalogue ... picture gallery and filmic folly`.

"The Enchanter" is the Ur-Lolita, the precursor to Nabokov`s classic novel. At once hilarious and chilling, it tells the story of an outwardly respectable man and his fatal obsession with certain pubescent girls, whose coltish grace and subconscious coquetry reveal, to his mind, a special bud on the verge of bloom.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Lolicon, also romanized as rorikon, is a Japanese portmanteau of the phrase "Lolita complex". In Japan, the term describes an attraction to underage girls, or an individual with such an attraction. Outside Japan, the term is less common and most often refers to a genre of manga and anime wherein childlike female characters are depicted in an erotic manner. The phrase is a reference to Vladimir Nabokov's book Lolita, in which a middle-age man becomes sexually obsessed with a twelve-year-old girl. The equivalent term for attraction to (or art pertaining to erotic portrayal of) young boys is shotacon. Some critics claim that the lolicon genre contributes to actual sexual abuse of children, while...

As the world becomes smaller through technology, we find an increasing overlap between differing sociological worldviews. This can lead to either antagonism and alienation, or empathy and new possibilities, depending upon the balance between newness and tradition. By examining the works of bi- cultural authors, we can get a glimpse into the minds of those who have successfully negotiated a path toward allowing alternate worldviews while maintaining stability in an ever-changing world. This book uses the work of Joseph Conrad, Vladimir Nabokov, and Salman Rushdie, to explore how language and other sociological matrices work to filter perceptions of reality and provide the basis for individual identity building. Heart of Darkness, Lolita...
