Angela Carter: A Literary Life
ISBN: 9780230580985 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. By the time of her death in 1992, Angela Carter had come to be regarded as one of the most successful and original British authors of the twentieth-century, and her writing has subsequently become the focus of a burgeoning body of criticism. This book disentangles the cult of Angela Carter as 'the fairy godmother of magical realism' from her own claims to be a materialist and a 'demythologiser' by placing her within the social, political and theoretical context within which she wrote. Drawing on Carter's own autobiographical articles as well as her novels and short stories, this study...

A North Norfolk Saltmarsh
ISBN: 9786203026566 / Angielski / Miękka / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Saltmarshes develop along protective areas of our coast and form some of the most unspoilt and fragile habitats of our landscape. It is their progression from the tidal waters to inland; that offers the opportunity to study the development of these coastal features. Much of the research on saltmarshes has been focused upon succession and the consequent development of a zonation, using models of the 'ideal' saltmarsh. Previous research had tried to identify one phenomena as the cause behind zonation but it is now realised that a variety of factors may be influential in the make up of this...

Contesting French West Africa: Battles Over Schools and the Colonial Order, 1900-1950
ISBN: 9780803295490 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 378 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. After the turn of the twentieth century, schools played a pivotal role in the construction of French West Africa.

Weaving together a complex narrative and rich variety of voices, Harry Gamble explores the high stakes of colonial education. After the turn of the twentieth century, schools played a pivotal role in the construction of French West Africa. But as this dynamic, deeply resea... |
