Modern Austrian Literature through the Lens of Adaptation
ISBN: 9789042035737 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 241 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For decades postwar Austrian literature has been measured against and moulded into a series of generic categories and grand cultural narratives, from nostalgic 'restoration' literature of the 1950s through the socially critical 'anti-Heimat' novel to recent literary reckonings with Austria's Nazi past. Peering through the lens of film adaptation, this book rattles the generic shackles imposed by literary history and provides an entirely new critical perspective on Austrian literature. Its original methodological approach challenges the primacy of written sources in existing scholarship and...

In the context of economic downturn, global climate change and theoretical perspectives such as 'risk society', the world we live in today seems to be intensely aware of the problems that we face and the lack of solutions generated by traditional, cynical politics and politicians. Utopian Politics examines the idea of an alternative and utopian political life, inspired by post-structural anarchist theory. It argues that a new methodology is possible in politics and citizenship studies to offer an optimistic and theoretically rigorous...

Children, sometimes only a few weeks old were separated from devastated mothers in a dark, shameful manoeuvre so as not to offend the civilisation of 'normality'. For many, being born with a learning disability was a crime, or at least punishable as one. Their parents were not callous, uncaring people but were swayed by the popular and professional opinion that life in an institution was 'in their best interests', leaving them with a guilt that can only be understood by another...
