1 Günter Grass's Blechtrommel and Patrick White's Solid Mandala Rodney Stenning Edgecombe , 2014 single work criticism
— Appears in: Antipodes , December vol. 28 no. 2 2014; (p. 509-512)
'Edgecombe examines the novels Solid Mandala by Patrick White and Blechtrommel by Gunter Grass. He argues that Arthur's dance in Solid Mandala has been inspired by Die Blechtrommel, a novel that most emphatically does mix the documentary and the fantastical. He shares that White has borrowed the procedure but managed to escape its consequences.' (Publication summary)

— Appears in: Antipodes , June vol. 28 no. 1 2014; (p. 227-228, 255)

1 Hugo, Goethe, and Patrick White : Sources for The Eye of the Storm and The Vivisector Rodney Stenning Edgecombe , 2014 single work criticism
— Appears in: Antipodes , December vol. 28 no. 2 2014; (p. 513-517, 536)
'Edgecombe examines Patrick White's novels The Eye of the Storm and The Vivisector and its connection with the works of French novelist Victor Hugo and German writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. The French novel that suggests itself in connection with The Eye of the Storm would naturally be La Chatreuse de Parme, but there are also several points of the narrative that reveal a debt to Hugo's Les Travailleurs de la Mer. The first relates to the "skiapod" of Odilon Redon, which itself seems to have derived from Hugo's account of the King of the Auxcriniers. In the Eye, White stresses the liminal nature of this world, emblematized by an intermediate light that effaces temporal divisions.' (Publication abstract)
