Literature, Culture, and Society
ISBN: 9780814755655 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Amidst continuing debates about the literary canon, Literature, Culture and Society poses a revealing question--if academics find it valuable and stimulating to discuss texts ranging from Genesis to Bladerunner in their leisure time, why do they act as if this is sacrosanct in their formal work? In this well- argued and refreshing discussion of the history and importance of literary criticism, Milner embraces a reality that many in the academy still fear, that cultural studies is alive, and it's here to stay. Andrew Milner begins with an introduction to the field of cultural studies and...

Literature, Culture and Society
ISBN: 9780415307840 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As cultural studies has grown from its origins on the margins of literary studies, it has tended to discard both literature and sociology in favour of the semiotics of popular culture. Literature, Culture and Society makes a determined attempt to re-establish the connections between literary studies, cultural studies and sociology. Arguing against both literary humanism and sociological relativism, it provides a critical overview of theoretical approaches to textual analysis, from hermeneutics to postmodernism, and presents a substantive account of the capitalist literary mode of...

Locating Science Fiction
ISBN: 9781846318429 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Locating Science Fiction is a ground breaking and potentially paradigm-shifting book, a major intervention into contemporary theoretical debates about SF.
Academic literary criticism has tended to locate SF primarily in relation to the older genre of utopia; fan criticism primarily in relation to fantasy and SF in other media, especially film and television; popular fiction studies primarily in relation to other contemporary genres such as the romance and the thriller. This bold new synthesis relocates SF in relation to each of these other genres and media and also to the historical and...

Science Fiction and Climate Change: A Sociological Approach
ISBN: 9781789621723 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Despite the occasional upsurge of climate change scepticism amongst Anglophone conservative politicians and journalists, there is still a near-consensus amongst climate scientists that current levels of atmospheric greenhouse gas are sufficient to alter global weather patterns to disastrous effect. The resultant climate crisis is simultaneously both a natural and a socio-cultural phenomenon and in this book Milner and Burgmann argue that science fiction occupies a critical location within this nature/culture nexus. Science Fiction and Climate Change takes as its subject matter what...
