Drawn from those presented at a conference held at Brock U. in October 2006, these papers describe the power of the lie to destabilize "reality" in classical, modernist and postmodern texts as well as in visual and performance art and cognitive science. Whether the lie results in positive or negative outcomes is open to debate, as contributors analyze the changeable wife in The Odyssey, Ovid's advice to lovers, shifts and turns in Italian Baroque poetry, panoramic trompe-l'oeil, veiling and unveiling in the work of Jelloun, Redonnet's deceptive Candy Store, famous film failures, female anatomy flaps, the disguised God, and deception in the Lotus Sutra and the Vimalakirti Sutra. The contributors are highly skilled in applying aesthetics and literary theory to the complexity of the relationships among writers, artists, and audiences with truth and truthfulness.
