The Singularity of Literature: The Singularity of Literature
ISBN: 9781138701090 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Iliad and Beowulf provide rich sources of historical information. The novels of Henry Fielding and Henry James may be instructive in the art of moral living. Some go further and argue that Emile Zola and Harriet Beecher Stowe played a part in ameliorating the lives of those existing in harsh circumstances. However, as Derek Attridge argues in this outstanding and acclaimed book, none of these capacities is distinctive of literature. What is the singularity of literature? Do the terms -literature- and -the literary- refer to actual entities found in cultures at certain... The Iliad and Beowulf provide rich sources of historical information.

Peculiar Language
ISBN: 9780415340588 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. First published in 1988, Peculiar Language is now established as one of the most important discussions of the language of literature. This thought-provoking book challenges traditional notions of literary criticism, arguing that all attempts by writers, critics and literary theorists to define the language of literature have involved self-contradiction. Through examination of key moments in literary history, Derek Attridge demonstrates that such contradictions in accounts of literary language are embedded in our cultural concept of 'literature' and asserts that in order to appreciate...

The Rhythms of English Poetry
ISBN: 9780582551053 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 410 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Examines the way in which poetry in English makes use of rhythm. The author argues that there are three major influences which determine the verse-forms used in any language: the natural rhythm of the spoken language itself; the properties of rhythmic form; and the metrical conventions which have grown up within the literary tradition. He investigates these in order to explain the forms of English verse, and to show how rhythm and metre work as an essential part of the reader's experience of poetry.

Moving Words: Forms of English Poetry
ISBN: 9780199681242 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The contemporary reader of English poetry is able to take pleasure in the sounds and movements of the English language in works written over the past eight centuries, and to find poems that convey powerful emotions and vivid images from this entire period. This book investigates the ways in which poets have exploited the resources of the language as a spoken medium - its characteristic rhythms, its phonetic qualities, its deployment of syntax - to write verse that continues to move and delight. The chapters in the first of the two parts examine a number of issues relating to poetic form: the...

The Craft of Poetry: Dialogues on Minimal Interpretation
ISBN: 9781138850071 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book presents an innovative format for poetry criticism that its authors call "dialogical poetics." This approach shows that readings of poems, which in academic literary criticism often look like a product of settled knowledge, are in reality a continual negotiation between readers. But Derek Attridge and Henry Staten agree to rein in their own interpretive ingenuity and "minimally interpret" poems - reading them with careful regard for what the poem can be shown to actually say, in detail and as a whole, from opening to closure. Based on a series of emails, the book explores a... This book presents an innovative format for poetry criticism that its authors call "dialogical poetics."

Reading and Responsibility: Deconstruction's Traces
ISBN: 9780748640089 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What is the importance of deconstruction, and the writing of Jacques Derrida in particular, for literary criticism today? Derek Attridge argues that the challenge of Derrida's work for our understanding of literature and its value has still not been fully met, and in this book, which traces a close engagement with Derrida's writing over two decades and reflects an interest in that work going back a further two decades, shows how that work can illuminate a variety of topics.Chapters include an overview of deconstruction as a critical practice today, discussions of the secret, postcolonialism,...
