It brings academic discussion to how literary borrowing and stylistic reproduction shape authorship, identity, and interpretation. The work is presented as a scholarly project developed through seminar dialogue, peer feedback, and careful manuscript revision over several years. It also acknowledges research support and earlier published versions that informed later chapters.","Double-Edged Imitation  \nTheories and Practices of Pastiche in Literature  \nSanna Nyqvist  \nUniversity of Helsinki 2010  \n© Sanna Nyqvist 2010 ISBN 978-952-92-6970-9  \nNord Print Oy Helsinki 2010  \nAcknowledgements  \nAmong the great pleasures of bringing a project like this to completion is the opportunity to declare my gratitude to the many people who have made it possible and, moreover, enjoyable and instructive.  \nMy supervisor, Professor H.K. Riikonen has accorded me generous academic freedom, as well as unfailing support whenever I have needed it. His belief in the merits of this book has been a source of inspiration and motivation. Professor Steven Connor and Professor Suzanne Keen were as thorough and careful pre-examiners as I could wish for and I am very grateful for their suggestions and advice.  \nI have been privileged to conduct my work for four years in the Finnish Graduate School of Literary Studies under the directorship of Professor Bo Pettersson. He and the Graduate School’s Post-Doctoral Researcher Harri Veivo not only offered insightful and careful comments on my papers, but equally importantly created a friendly and encouraging atmosphere in the Graduate School seminars. I thank my fellow post-graduate students – Dr. Juuso Aarnio, Dr. Ulrika Gustafsson, Dr. Mari Hatavara, Dr. Saija Isomaa, Mikko Kallionsivu, Toni Lahtinen, Hanna Meretoja, Dr. Outi Oja, Dr. Merja Polvinen, Dr. Riikka Rossi, Dr. Hanna Ruutu, Juho-Antti Tuhkanen and Jussi Willman – for their feedback and collegial support. The rush to meet the seminar deadline was always amply compensated by the discussions in the seminar itself, and afterwards over a glass of wine.  \nI am especially grateful for the friendship and advice of Dr. Merja Polvinen, a brilliant scholar and wonderful friend, who has carefully read and commented on the manuscript at its different stages of development. The mornings spent playing badminton with her have offered physical and intellectual exercise in equal measure. I now have the pleasure of working with Merja in the Styles of Mimesis project, directed by Professor Pirjo Lyytikäinen. I thank Pirjo for her sage advice and support, and my project colleagues Dr. Saija Isomaa and Dr. Riikka Rossi for sharing valuable  \nideas and experiences. Also a member of the Styles of Mimesis project, Docent Sari Kivistö commented on the manuscript at the crucial finishing stages. Her high standard of professionalism is an example to which I aspire.  \nColleagues and academic staff in Comparative Literature have also contributed to this project in important ways. I thank Professor Heta Pyrhönen for encouragement at the early stages of my university career. The seminars of Docent Kuisma Korhonen were inspiring and challenged me to look at things from new angles. Dr. Eva Maria Korsisaari was one of my first teachers at the university and is now a dear friend and colleague. Her beautifully hand-written comments circling the pages of my manuscript were always a pleasure to read and, moreover, taught me a lot about methodology. Fellow post-graduates Laura Lindstedt, MarttiTapio Kuuskoski and Dr. Pajari Räsänen have been crucial to the intellectual atmosphere in our department. Over the last three years, I have had the privilege of sharing the office with Sami Sjöberg, whose humour and compassion have brightened my days. Many of my ideas have been tested and developed in conversation with him over and through the bookshelf that divides the office into two separate dens.  \nDocent Roderick McConchie revised the manuscript with meticulous attention; however, I remain responsible for any remaining errors. I have had the pleasure and honour to present my work in numerous seminars both home and abroad and would like to thank the organisers for the opportunity and other participants for their comments and ideas.  \nSpecial thanks are due to my dear friends, whose intelligence, humour and cookery have considerably helped along the way.
