Yim, Seong-suk. “An Analysis on the Meaning of ‘the Day’ in Seize the Day by Saul Bellow.” Studies on English & Language. 38.2 (2012): 107-127. Saul Bellow asks questions about negative realities such as the loss of human nature in unreasonable situations, caused by confusion and disorder. He traces the process of a human being’s redemption, as a free person, who overcomes despair, alienation, and the fear of death in the result of obsession and desire for materialism portrayed in his work, Seize the Day. It is one based on the viewpoint of ‘the Day’, recast the past at the moment, here-and-now. Therefore, this paper illustrates the meaning of ‘time’ of ‘the Day’ in Bellow’s ‘Seize the Day’, as the psychological time rather than the physical time, through a western philosophy and theology. It traces the passage of time, which is underway in the inner world of the protagonist, Tommy Wilhelm. And it interprets ‘the Day’, ‘time’ reflected in his consciousness, as ‘an eternal present’ in the view of ‘God’ which is a code of western culture distinguished by Plato, Plotinos, and Augustinus.
