Tiempo Y Memoria Proustianos En Doña Inés De "Azorín", Herbert Craig

The Coastal Review: An Online Peer-reviewed Journal

The discovery of three articles by “Azorín” about Proust demonstrates that the Spanish author knew the Recherche before he wrote Doña Inés (1925). However Azorín follows Proust not only in the treatment of involuntary memory, as some scholars have suspected, but also in the treatment of time. These aspects include the changes in the physical appearance of Doña Inés and in the changes of light at the beginning or ending of the day.
