Medieval Comic Tales
ISBN: 9781843841791 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the middle ages, a common fund of comic tales circulated throughout Europe. Writers such as Boccaccio, Chaucer, Rabelais and Cervantes drew on this material, and used it for their own purposes, but the brilliant medieval versions also deserve to be known in their own right. They are of great cultural interest and considerable entertainment value, varying from humour to farce, from sophisticated literary parody to blunt crudeness. Piety jostles blasphemy, and sex and death are everywhere good for a joke. The tales presented here, translated into clear modern English by experts in their...

Symbolic Stories: Traditional Narratives of the Family Drama in English Literature
ISBN: 9780859910637 / Angielski / Twarda / 1970 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Many famous stories, from the Old Testament, medieval romance and folktale, to Shakespeare's tragedies and comedies and even some great novels, present apparent inconsistencies or absurdities when judged as plausible representations of 'reality'. Yet the experience of many generations of readers and listeners is that such stories take a powerful hold on the imagination and memory, and create a strong impression on coherent significance. Symbolic Stories shows why the structure of these tales is so significant, and why they are repeated, both in the original and with variations, down the ages....
