Towards a Postmodern Theory of Narrative
ISBN: 9780748608416 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This study re-examines narrative theory and outlines the consequences for narratology of deconstructive, poststructuralist and more recent theory. Andrew Gibson assesses the extent to which narrative theory might be rethought in their light, drawing on the work of Derrida, Deleuze, Lyotard and Foucault. Consistently relating his theoretical investigations to critical practice, Gibson makes telling and perceptive analyses of a variety of twentieth-centry texts including work by Joyce, Fielding, Beckett, Lawrence, Woolf, R L Stevenson, Kundera, Tarkovsky and others. This is an important...

Misanthropy: The Critique of Humanity
ISBN: 9781474293174 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book is the first major study of the theme of misanthropy, its history, arguments both for and against it, and its significance for us today. Misanthropy is not strictly a philosophy. It is an inconsistent thought, and so has often been mocked. But from Timon of Athens to Motorhead it has had a very long life, vast historical purchase and is seemingly indomitable and unignorable. Human beings have always nursed a profound distrust of who and what they are. This book does not seek to rationalize that distrust, but asks how far misanthropy might have a reason on its side, if a confused...

Postmodernity, Ethics and the Novel: From Leavis to Levinas
ISBN: 9780415198950 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In Postmodernity, Ethics and the Novel Andrew Gibson sets out to demonstrate that postmodern theory has actually made possible an ethical discourse around fiction.
Each chapter elaborates and discusses a particular aspect of Levinas' thought and raises questions for that thought and its bearing on the novel. It also contains detailed analyses of particular texts. Part of the book's originality is its concentration on a range of modernist and postmodern novels which have seldom if ever served as the basis for a larger ethical theory of fiction.

Joyce's Revenge: History, Politics, and Aesthetics in Ulysses
ISBN: 9780199282036 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Ireland of Ulysses was still a part of Britain. This book is the first comprehensive, historical study of Joyce's great novel in the context of Anglo-Irish political and cultural relations in the period 1880-1920. The first forty years of Joyce's life also witnessed the emergence of what historians now call English cultural nationalism. This formation was perceptible in a wide range of different discourses. Ulysses engages with many of them. In doing so, it resists, transforms and works to transcend the effects of British rule in Ireland. The novel was written in the years leading up to...

Gibson explores this anti-schematics of historical reason' and its implication for politics, ethics and aesthetics in a wide range of modern intellectual contexts, finding its necessary complement and most powerful expression in a wealth of modern art, chiefly...

Beckett and Badiou: The Pathos of Intermittency
ISBN: 9780199207756 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Beckett and Badiou offers a provocative new reading of Samuel Beckett's work on the basis of a full, critical account of the thought of Alain Badiou. Badiou is the most eminent of contemporary French philosophers. His devotion to Beckett's work has been lifelong. Yet for Badiou philosophy must be integrally affirmative, whilst Beckett apparently commits his art to a work of negation. Beckett and Badiou explores the coherences, contradictions, and extreme complexities of the intellectual relationship between the two oeuvres. It examines Badiou's philosophy of being, the event, truth, and the...

The Strong Spirit: History, Politics, and Aesthetics in the Writings of James Joyce, 1898-1915
ISBN: 9780199642502 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Scholarly accounts of Joyce's early work have traditionally resorted to two historical keys to try to unlock it: a concept of the Dublin and Ireland in which he grew to adulthood as stagnant and backward, and an emphasis on 1904, the year of the supposedly crucial break in which Joyce quit Ireland for continental Europe and could begin his great modernist literary project. But modernist or no, Joyce's works are always about Ireland, and he remained vitally in touch with Irish historical developments throughout his life. This study aims to be the first comprehensive historicisation of Joyce's...

ISBN: 9780198184959 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This eminently learned book transforms our understanding of Joyce's Ulysses by placing the novel firmly in the historical context of Anglo-Irish political and cultural relations in the period 1880-1920.
