NABOKOV STUDIES
Vol. I 1994
Table of Contents
Joel Brattin----""The Intersection of McEwen and Wheaton: A Nabokovian
Locus Identified." The paper pinpoints the location of an epic row
between Humbert and Lolita in Clare, Michigan. Photograph by author.
Maxim Shrayer---"`Cloud, Castle, Lake' and the Problem of Entering
Nabokov's Otherworld. A very close analysis of this story with
implications for much of the short fiction.
Julian Connolly---"Nabokov and Narrative Point of View: The Case of
`The Letter that never Reached Russia'"
Leona Toker---"Liberal Ironists and the `Gaudily Painted Savage': On
Richard Rorty's Reading of Vladimir Nabokov." Argues that Rorty's
well-known essay misreads Nabokov in certain respects.
Stephanie Merkel---"Vladimir Nabokov's KING, QUEEN, KNAVE and the Com-
media Dell'Arte. An analysis of the early novel in terms of character
types and motifs from the Commedia."
Jane Grayson---"Washington's GIFT: Materials pertaining to Nabokov's
GIFT in the Library of Congress." The LC Nabokov Archives contain
both materials that were composed for THE GIFT but not used, and
materials for a second volume that was never written. The article (67
pp in typescript) examines these drafts in relation to Nabokov's
oeuvre.
Susan Sweeney---"Sinistral Details: Nabokov, Wilson, and HAMLET in
BEND SINISTER." The article suggests that Nabokov incorporated
elements of his relationship with Edmund Wilson into his 1947 novel.
D. Barton Johnson--"The Nabokov-Sartre Controversy." An examination of
the relationship between Nabokov's 1926 short story "Terror" and
Sartre's 1938 NAUSEA and the subsequent antagonism of the two men.

Charles Nicol--"Necessary Introduction or Fatal Fatuity: The Extended
Introduction to BEND SINISTER." Establishes a paradigm for Nabokov's
"Introductions" with particular attention to subtexts in the BEND
SINISTER "Foreword."

study of Nabokov's concept of "cosmic synchronization" and the
literary techniques that he employs to convey his sense of the other
world.=20
