ISBN: 9780485111316 / Angielski / Miękka / 1972 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the years covered by this volume high Victorian poetry reached it's prolific peak and stimulated a corresponding abundance of critical comment. As poets turned to new themes and new modes of presenting them, critics sought to redifine the function of poetry in their time and nowhere with greater immediacy and sense of the cultural issues at stake than in the periodicals. Two occasions when discussion was particularly lively - in relation to Tennyson's early poems and Arnold's 1853 Preface - are here used by Dr. Armstrong as focal points and with them in mind she has selected and annotated...

Mrs Grundy's Enemies: Censorship, Realist Fiction and the Politics of Sexual Representation
ISBN: 9783034308878 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 235 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This is the first book-length study of literary censorship in the late Victorian and Edwardian periods. While in recent years the aesthetics and politics of British Modernism have been re-evaluated and the concept and function of censorship redefined, Modernism s privileged status in the struggle against and ultimate defeat of censorship remains largely unquestioned. This book contests that the vital role played by Realist writers in the battle against censorship and the dominant sexual ideologies that bolstered it has been significantly underestimated. It contends that many Realist writers...

Novel Politics: Democratic Imaginations in Nineteenth-Century Fiction
ISBN: 9780198793724 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Novel Politics aims to change the current consensus of thinking about the nineteenth-century novel. This assumes that the novel is structured by bourgeois ideology and morality, so that its default position is conservative and hegemonic. Such critique comes alike from Marxists, readers of nineteenth-century liberalism, and critics making claims for the working-class novel, and systematically under-reads democratic imaginations and social questioning in novels of the period. To undo such readings means evolving a new praxis of critical writing. Rather than addressing the explicitly political...
