C. Day-Lewis: The Golden Bridle: Selected Prose
ISBN: 9780198766117 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. C. Day-Lewis was a major figure in British poetry and culture from the 1930s until his death in 1972. The Golden Bridle: Selected Prose takes its title from the myth of Bellerophon and the golden bridle of Pegasus, which Day-Lewis invoked on several occasions as a metaphor for the creative process. Day-Lewis as poet is, then, the organizing idea of this anthology, and the selections indicate the scope and range of his vital engagement with English life and letters. Organised into four parts, the volume illustrates Day-Lewis's reflections on the role and function of poetry in...

American Poetry After Modernism: The Power of the Word
ISBN: 9781107025240 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Albert Gelpi's American Poetry after Modernism is a study of major poets of the postwar period from Robert Lowell and Adrienne Rich through the Language poets. He argues that what distinguishes American poetry from the British tradition is, paradoxically, the lack of a tradition; as a result, each poet has to ask fundamental questions about the role of the poet and the nature of the medium, has to invent a language and form for his or her purposes. Exploring this paradox through detailed critical readings of the work of fourteen poets, Gelpi presents an original and insightful argument about...

The Tenth Muse: The Psyche of the American Poet
ISBN: 9780521424011 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 358 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In The Tenth Muse, Albert Gelpi asks the hard questions about how poetry can take on for itself the problems of shaping American identities and argues that the conditions of American life and culture have pushed our major poets into a debate between intellect and passion. Gelpi provides thorough readings of major American poets from Bradstreet and Taylor up to the modernists, often using contemporary poets (Rich, Ginsberg, Duncan) as frames for those predecessors. Originally published in 1975 in hardcover only by Harvard University Press

A Coherent Splendor: The American Poetic Renaissance, 1910-1950
ISBN: 9780521386876 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this book Professor Gelpi traces the emergence of American Modernist poetry as a reaction to, and outgrowth of, the Romantic ideology of the nineteenth century. He focuses on the remarkable generation of poets who came to maturity in the years of the First World War and whose works constitute the principal body of poetic Modernism in English. This large historical argument is developed through monographic chapters on the poets which include close readings of their major poems. Comprehensive in scope and subtle in its analysis, Gelpi's book promises to be one of the major studies of...

Robert Duncan and Denise Levertov: The Poetry of Politics, the Politics of Poetry

This collection of essays, written for this volume and often using unpublished and archival materials, converges around the usually close and intense relationship between Robert Duncan and Denise Levertov, two of the most important and remarkable American poets in the second half of the twentieth century.

Living in Time: The Poetry of C. Day Lewis
ISBN: 9780195098631 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Oxford poets of the 1930s--W. H. Auden, C. Day Lewis, Stephen Spender, and Louis MacNeice--represented the first concerted British challenge to the domination of twentieth-century poetry by the innovations of American modernists such as Ezra Pound and William Carlos Williams. Known for their radical politics and aesthetic conservatism, the "Auden Generation" has come to loom large in our map of twentieth century literary history. Yet Auden's voluble domination of the group in its brief period of association, and Auden's sway with critics ever since, has made it difficult to hear the...

ISBN: 9780804745918 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Robinson Jeffers (1887-1962) is not only the greatest poet that the American West has produced but also a major poet of the twentieth century in the tradition of American prophetic poetry.

Walt Whitman's Native Representations
ISBN: 9780521585729 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Walt Whitman looked to many different areas of American culture to develop a distinctively American poetry. This book investigates four of the areas he found most fertile for his own poetic development: the evolution of American dictionaries, the growth of the national sport of baseball, the decimation of American Indians, and the development of American photography. From each of these cultural activities, Whitman absorbed key aesthetic lessons that helped him compose his poetry.

The American Historical Romance
ISBN: 9780521389372 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 388 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Dekker traces the American historical novel from its origins in the early 1800s to the beginning of World War II, examining the genre's connections with Enlightenment and Romantic theories of history, the rise of literary regionalism, the ambitions of Romantic writers to revive the epic and romance, changing gender roles, and individual authors' troubled responses to the modern era's great revolutionary and imperialistic conflicts. Though concerned with the historical romance's development, Dekker devotes most of this book to new readings of major texts by James Fenimore Cooper, Nathaniel...

Literature, Amusement, and Technology in the Great Depression
ISBN: 9780521813433 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study examines the exchange between literature and recreational practices in 1930s America. William Solomon argues that autobiographical writers like Edward Dahlberg and Henry Miller derived aesthetic inspiration from urban manifestations of the carnival spirit: Coney Island amusement parks, burlesque, vaudeville, and the dime museum display of human oddities. More broadly, he demonstrates that the literary projects of the period pivoted around images of grotesquely disfigured bodies which appeared as part of this recreational culture.

Family, Kinship, and Sympathy in Nineteenth-Century American Literature
ISBN: 9780521031264 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Cindy Weinstein radically revises our understanding of nineteenth-century sentimental literature. Arguing that these novels are far more complex than critics have suggested, Weinstein expands the archive of sentimental novels to include some of the more popular, though under-examined writers, and shows how canonical texts can take on new meaning when read in the context of these novels. She demonstrates the aesthetic and political complexities of this influential genre and its impact on Stowe, Twain and Melville.

Race, Slavery, and Liberalism in Nineteenth-Century American Literature
ISBN: 9780521856744 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Moving boldly between literary analysis and political theory, contemporary and antebellum US culture, Arthur Riss invites readers to rethink prevailing accounts of the relationship between slavery, liberalism, and literary representation. Situating Nathaniel Hawthorne, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Frederick Douglass at the center of antebellum debates over the person-hood of the slave, this 2006 book examines how a nation dedicated to the proposition that 'all men are created equal' formulates arguments both for and against race-based slavery. This revisionary argument promises to be unsettling...

Henry James and the 'Woman Business'
ISBN: 9780521609432 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This is a historical critique of Henry James in relation to nineteenth-century feminism and women's fiction. Habegger has brought to light extensive new documentation on James's tangled connections with what was thought and written about women in his time. The emphasis is equally on his life and on his fictions. This is the first book to investigate his father's bizarre lifelong struggle with free love and feminism, a struggle that played a major role in shaping James. The book also shows how seriously he distorted the truth about the cousin, Minnie Temple, whose self-assertive image inspired...
