This book discusses the elusive centrality of silence in modern literature and philosophy focusing on the writing and theory of Jean-Luc Nancy and Roland Barthes the prose of Samuel Beckett and the poetry of Wallace Stevens. It suggests that silence is best understood according to two categories: apophasis and reticence. Apophasis is associated with theology and relates to a silence of ineffability and transcendence reticence is associated with phenomenology and relates to a silence of listenership and speechlessness. In a series of diverse though interrelated readings the study examines figures of broken silence and silent voice in the prose of Samuel Beckett the notion of shared silence in Jean-Luc Nancy and Roland Barthes and ways in which the poetry of Wallace Stevens mounts lyrical negotiations with forms of unsayability and speechlessness.
