The Land of the Green Man : A Journey through the Supernatural Landscapes of the British Isles
ISBN: 9781780769912 / Angielski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Beyond its housing estates and identikit high streets there is another Britain. This is the Britain of mist-drenched forests and unpredictable sea-frets: of wraith-like fog banks, druidic mistletoe and peculiar creatures that lurk, half-unseen, in the undergrowth, tantalising and teasing just at the periphery of human vision. How have the remarkably persistent folkloric traditions of the British Isles formed and been formed by the psyches of those who inhabit them? In this sparkling new history, Carolyne Larrington explores the diverse ways in which a myriad of fantastical beings has moulded...

Brothers and Sisters in Medieval European Literature
ISBN: 9781903153628 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 285 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The literature of the European Middle Ages attends closely to the relationship of brother and sister, laying bare sibling behaviours in their most dramatic forms as models to emulate, to marvel at or to avoid. The literary treatment of siblings opens up multiple perspectives on brothers' and sisters' emotions: love, hate, rivalry, desire, nurturing and ambivalence underlie sibling stories. These narratives are in turn inflected by rank, social context and most crucially, gender. This book examines these sibling relationships, focusing on the important vernacular literatures of Iceland,...
