| Tóm tắt: | The essay explores the role of David Malouf’s ‘voyaging imagination’ mainly in his latest novel. It concentrates on the metaphysical implications of Malouf’s ontological perception of man in relation to the Australian landscape and on the parallels that emerge between man’s deeper self and a humanized nature. The protagonist’s journey to and, above all, ‘within’ Australia together with the depths of language he discovers bring about the awakening of his imagination and the birth of a new self. |
