The Limits of Illusion: A Critical Study of Calderón
ISBN: 9780521262811 / Angielski / Twarda / 1984 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is the first thorough study of Calderon in comparison with other important dramatists of the period: Lope de Vega and Tirso de Molina in Spain, Racine and Corneille in France, and Shakespeare and Marlowe in England. Cascardi studies Calderon's paradoxical engagement with illusion in its philosophical guise as scepticism. He shows on the one hand Calderon's moral will to reject illusion and on the other his theatrical need to embrace it. Cascardi discusses plays from every period to show how in Calderon's best work illusion is not rejected; instead, scepticism is absorbed. Calderon is...

The Cambridge Introduction to Literature and Philosophy
ISBN: 9780521281232 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Literature and philosophy have long shared an interest in questions of truth, value, and form. And yet, from ancient times to the present, they have often sharply diverged, both in their approach to these questions and in their relationship to one another. Moreover, the vast differences among individual writers, historical periods, and languages pose challenges for anyone wishing to understand the relationship between them. This Introduction provides a synthetic and original guide to this vast terrain. It uncovers the deep interests that literature and philosophy share while offering a lucid...

Poiesis and Modernity in the Old and New Worlds
ISBN: 9780826518347 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This broad-ranging exploration argues that there was a special preoccupation with the nature and limits of poetry in early modern Spain and Europe, as well as especially vigorous poetic activity in this period. Contrary to what one might read in Hegel, the -prosification- of the world has remained an unfinished affair.

Cervantes, Literature and the Discourse of Politics
ISBN: 9781442612235 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What is the role of literature in the formation of the state? Anthony J. Cascardi takes up this fundamental question in Cervantes, Literature, and the Discourse of Politics, a comprehensive analysis of the presence of politics in Don Quixote. Cascardi argues that when public speech is constrained, as it was in seventeenth-century Spain, politics must be addressed through indirect forms including comedy, myth, and travellers' tales. Cervantes, Literature, and the Discourse of Politics convincingly re-engages the ancient roots of political theory in modern... What is the role of literature in the formation of the state?

The Subject of Modernity
ISBN: 9780521423786 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The question of modernity has provoked a vigorous debate in the work of thinkers from Hegel to Habermas. Our own self-styled postmodern age has seen no end to this debate, which now receives a major and wide-ranging intervention from the theorist and critic Anthony J. Cascardi. Offering an historical account of the origins and transformations of the rational subject or self as it is represented in Descartes, Cervantes, Pascal, Hobbes and the Don Juan myth, he carries his argument across the fields of epistemology, literature, political science, religion and psychology. The modern subject...

Ideologies of History in the Spanish Golden Age
ISBN: 9780271025698 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries was in the throes of modernization arising from trade with the New World and the rise of an urban society. During this period, Spanish culture came to be dominated by the tension between an old regime of traditional values--honor, lineage, purity of blood--and these modernizing influences. Anthony J. Cascardi examines the literature of the Golden Age as the point at which tensions between the old and the new converged and proposes that this historical drama provided the context for subject-formation in early modern Spain. He examines... Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries was in the throes of modernization arising from trade with the New World and the rise of an urban ... |

Anti-Mimesis from Plato to Hitchcock
ISBN: 9780521460132 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The material elements of writing have long been undervalued; but analysis of these elements--sound, signature, letters--can transform our understanding of major texts. Tom Cohen argues in this book that in an era of representational criticism the role of close reading has been overlooked. Through astonishing new readings of writers such as Plato, Bakhtin, Poe, Whitman, and Conrad, Professor Cohen exposes the limitations of new historicism and neo-pragmatism, and demonstrates how the "materiality of language" challenges representational models of meaning imposed by the canon.

Possible Worlds in Literary Theory
ISBN: 9780521450171 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The concept of possible worlds, originally introduced in philosophical logic, proves to be a productive tool when borrowed by literary theory to explain the notion of fictional worlds. Ruth Ronen develops a comparative reading of the use of possible worlds in philosophy and in literary theory. She suggests new criteria for the definition of fictionality; and through specific studies of domains within fictional worlds--events, objects, time and point of view--she proposes a radical rethinking of fictionality in general and fictional narrativity in particular.

Derrida and Autobiography
ISBN: 9780521465816 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The work of Jacques Derrida can be seen to reinvent most theories; here Robert Smith offers a reading of the philosophy of Derrida and an investigation of theories of autobiography. Smith argues that for Derrida autobiography is not so much a general condition of thought as a general condition of writing that mocks any self-centered finitude of living and dying. In this context, Smith thinks through Derrida's texts in a new way, and finds new perspectives to analyze classical writers including Hegel, Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, Freud and de Man.

Rhetoric, Sophistry, Pragmatism
ISBN: 9780521467803 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The skeptical relativism and self-conscious rhetoric of the pragmatist tradition, which began with the pre-Socratic Sophists and developed through an American tradition including William James and John Dewey, have attracted new attention in the context of postmodernist thought. At the same time there has been a more general renewal of interest in rhetoric itself. This book explores the various ways in which rhetoric, sophistry, and pragmatism overlap in their current theoretical and political implications, and demonstrates how they contribute both to a rethinking of the human sciences within...

Consequences of Enlightenment
ISBN: 9780521481496 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What is the relationship between contemporary intellectual culture and the European Enlightenment? In Consequences of Enlightenment, Anthony Cascardi revisits the arguments advanced in Horkheimer and Adorno's seminal work Dialectic of Enlightenment. Cascardi argues that postmodern culture does not reject Enlightenment beliefs and explores the link between aesthetics and politics in thinkers as diverse as Habermas, Derrida, Arendt, Nietzsche, Hegel and Wittgenstein. He reverses the tendency to see art simply in terms of the worldly practices among which it is situated. Aesthetic objects, he...
