by Professor John Cocking

Like a good many music lovers, Proust thought music was the most faithful way of expressing feelings; like a good many nineteenth-century philosophers and writers he thought it takes us through our feelings into another world of the mind. He meant his own novel to move us like music; how far did his love of music help him to write it?
John Cocking has some suggestions to make about the part played by Proust's musical culture in the planning of the novel. His talk is illustrated by musical excerpts.
