Milton's Words
ISBN: 9780199573462 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Milton's Words approaches John Milton in both an old and a new way, focusing on his genius with words: keywords - the keys to a text or a theory; words of sexual avoidance and distress; words of abuse; words of privilege because 'Scripture'; big learned words; and cunning little words, easily overlooked. After a short account of Milton's life as a writer, Patterson guides us through most of the poetry and polemical prose, all too often kept in separate compartments. She shows how new challenges and crises required shifts in vocabulary, as well as changes in Milton's views.

Pastoral and Ideology: Virgil to Valéry
ISBN: 9780520366510 / Angielski / Twarda / 2022 / 366 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Patterson follows the fortunes of Virgil's Eclogues from the Middle Ages to our own century. She argues that Virgilian pastoral spoke to the intellectuals of each place and time of their own condition.

This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices...

Nobody's Perfect: A New Whig Interpretation of History
ISBN: 9780300092882 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Is history driven more by principle or interest? Are ideas of historical progress obsolete? Is it unforgivable to change one's mind or political allegiance? Did the eighteenth century really exchange the civilizing force of commercial advantage for political conflict? In this new account of liberal thought from its roots in seventeenth-century English thinking to the end of the eighteenth century, Annabel Patterson tackles these important historiographical questions. She rescues the term "whig" from the low regard attached to it; denies the primacy of self-interest in the political struggles...

Fables of Power: Aesopian Writing and Political History
ISBN: 9780822311065 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this imaginative and illuminating work, Annabel Patterson traces the origins and meanings of the Aesopian fable, as well as its function in Renaissance culture and subsequently. She shows how the fable worked as a medium of political analysis and communication, especially from or on behalf of the politically powerless.
Patterson begins with an analysis of the legendary "Life" of Aesop, its cultural history and philosophical implications, a topic that involves such widely separated figures as La Fontaine, Hegel, and Vygotsky. The myth's origin is recovered here in the saving myth of...

Reading Holinshed's Chronicles
ISBN: 9780226649122 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Reading Holinshed's Chronicles is the first major study of the greatest of the Elizabethan chronicles. Holinshed's Chronicles-a massive history of England, Scotland, and Ireland-has been traditionally read as the source material for many of Shakespeare's plays or as an archaic form of history-writing. Annabel Patterson insists that the Chronicles be read in their own right as an important and inventive cultural history. Although we know it by the name of Raphael Holinshed, editor and major compiler of the 1577 edition, the Chronicles was the work of a group, a...

The Long Parliament of Charles II
ISBN: 9780300137088 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 283 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Charles II's first and most important parliament sat for eighteen years without a general election, earning itself the sobriquet "Long."

International Novel
ISBN: 9780300198003 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Annabel Patterson here turns her well-known concern with political history in early modern England into an engine for investigating our own era and a much wider terrain. The focus of this book is, broadly, nationalism and internationalism today, approached not theoretically but through the lens of fiction. Novels are uniquely capable of dealing with abstract problems by embodying them in the experience of persons, thereby rendering them more "real." Patterson takes twelve novels from (almost) all over the world: India, Africa, Turkey, Crete, the Balkans, Palestine, Afghanistan, South America,...

ISBN: 9780691647562 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Annabel M. Patterson offers here a reassessment of the place of Hermogenes, a Greek rhetorician of the second century A.D., in literary history. She shows that the literary men of the European Renaissance-scholars, critics, and poets-found Hermogenes' Concerning Ideas both important and extremely useful, and she finds that they vigorously applied his concepts to create "a lovely conformitie."

Reading Between The Lines
ISBN: 9780299135447 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For those exhausted by the highly charged debates and polarized climate of literary studies today, Annabel Patterson's Reading Between the Lines offers a strategic compromise: a moderate stance between the radical opponents and the zealous protectors of the traditional Western canon. She reconsiders the value of reading the white, male, canonical writers of antiquity and of early modern England, finding in them a set of values different from those supposed by both sides in the Great Books quarrel. Rather than being the unthinking or deliberate promoters of political or cultural uniformity,...
