Calibrations : Reading For The Social
ISBN: 9780816638390 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Proposes an entirely new socially and politically conscious way of reading. Ato Quayson explores a practice of reading that oscillates rapidly between domains--the literary-aesthetic, the social, the cultural, and the political--in order to uncover the mutually illuminating nature of these domains. He does this not to assert the often repeated postmodernist view that there is nothing outside the text, but to outline a method of reading he calls calibrations: a form of close reading of literature with what lies beyond it as a way of understanding structures of transformation, process, and...

Strategic Transformations in Nigerian Writing - Orality and History in the Work of Rev. Samuel Johnson, Amos Tutuola, Wole Soyinka and Ben Okri
ISBN: 9780852555439 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 'This is an innovative and original study which offers a new perspective on a Nigerian literary tradition. Quayson takes issue with the prevalent use of oral tradition in the criticism of Europhone written literature as a kind of cultural matrix out of which the written text emerged, and the essence of which it embodies. He proposes instead a view of literary tradition as the outcome of numerous, and varied, strategic acts of positioning in relation to indigenous resources - which vary according to the individual writer's project but also according to the larger social and political context....

Aesthetic Nervousness: Disability and the Crisis of Representation
ISBN: 9780231139038 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Focusing primarily on the work of Samuel Beckett, Toni Morrison, Wole Soyinka, and J. M. Coetzee, Ato Quayson launches a thoroughly cross-cultural, interdisciplinary study of the representation of physical disability. Quayson suggests that the subliminal unease and moral panic invoked by the disabled is refracted within the structures of literature and literary discourse itself, a crisis he terms "aesthetic nervousness." The disabled reminds the able-bodied that the body is provisional and temporary and that normality is wrapped up in certain social frameworks. Quayson expands his argument by...

There is the growing concern by governments of most developing countries over the implications of migration on the socio - economic development of their people. In Ghana, this concern has been well articulated by civil society organizations, District Assemblies, local and international NGOs as well as governmental agencies. Particular emphasis has been placed on how to deal with the extent to which internal migration impedes rural development through the loss of able-bodied young men and women who could assist in tilling the land to produce food and cash crops for the upkeep and sustenance of...

Labour Migration, Human Trafficking and Multinational Corporations: The Commodification of Illicit Flows
ISBN: 9781138815841 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Although much literature on human trafficking focuses on sex trafficking, a great deal of human trafficking results from migrant workers, compelled - by economic deprivation in their home countries - to seek better life opportunities abroad, especially in agriculture, construction and domestic work. Such labour migration is sometimes legal and well managed, but sometimes not so with migrant workers frequently threatened or coerced into entering debt bondage arrangements and ending up working in forced labour situations producing goods for illicit markets. This book fills a substantial gap... Although much literature on human trafficking focuses on sex trafficking, a great deal of human trafficking results from migrant workers, compelled... |
