Odysseus Abroad
ISBN: 9781101971451 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In Odysseus Abroad, Amit Chaudhuri charts a day in the life of two Indian men a twenty-two-year-old student trying (and failing) at being a poet and his bachelor uncle, who has been living in genteel poverty for nearly three decades as they explore London, the city they now call home.
A wistful and beguiling work of fiction, the novel follows nephew and uncle on one of their weekly forays about town, as they ruminate on their situations, the art of living, and each other. Marked by the same sensual richness that is a hallmark of all of Chaudhuri s work, here is a charming yet...

On Tagore: Reading the Poet Today
ISBN: 9783034309189 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Infosys Prize for outstanding contribution to the Humanities in Literary Studies Rabindranath Tagore is widely regarded as a romantic poet, speaking of beauty and truth; as a transcendentalist; a believer in the absolute; a propagandist for universal man; and as a national icon. But, as Amit Chaudhuri shows in these remarkable and widely admired essays about the poet and his milieu, his secret concern was really with life, play, and contingency, with the momentary as much as it was with the eternal. It is this strain of unacknowledged modernism, as well as a revolutionary...

D. H. Lawrence and 'Difference': Postcoloniality and the Poetry of the Present
ISBN: 9780199260522 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This important study from the prizewinning novelist and critic Amit Chaudhuri explores D. H. Lawrence's position as a "foreigner" in the English canon. Focussing on the poetry, Chaudhuri examines how Lawrence's works, and Lawrence himself, have been read, and misread, in terms of their "difference." This is the first time that Lawrence's poetry has been discussed in the light of post-colonial and post-structuralist theory; it is also the first time a leading post-colonial writer of his generation has taken as his subject a major canonical English writer, and, through him, remapped the English...

Jejuri
ISBN: 9781590171639 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12 dni roboczych. A sequence of stunningly simple but haunting poems, Jejuri is one of the great books of modern India. Jejuri is a site of pilgramage in author Arun Kolatkar's native state of Maharashtra, and Jejuri the poem is the record of a visit to the town -- a place that is as crassly commercial as it is holy, as modern and ruinous as it is ancient and enduring. Evoking the town's crowded streets, many shrines, and mythic history of sages and gods, Kolatkar's poem offers a rich description of India while at the same time performing a complex act of devotion. For the essence of the...
