Prophetic Worlds
ISBN: 9780295983028 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In his provocative ethnohistory, Christopher Miller offers an innovative reinterpretation of relations between Native Americans and Christian settlers on the Columbia Plateau. Miller draws on a wealth of ethnographic resources to show how culturally-derived perceptions and systems of rationality played more of a determining role in the interactions between these two groups than did material forces. Initially, Plateau Indians and the American missionaries who came to convert them perceived each other as crucial to the fulfillment of their own millennial destiny. When these views were...

The French Atlantic Triangle: Literature and Culture of the Slave Trade
ISBN: 9780822341512 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 590 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The French slave trade forced more than one million Africans across the Atlantic to the islands of the Caribbean. It enabled France to establish Saint-Domingue, the single richest colony on earth, and it connected France, Africa, and the Caribbean permanently. Yet the impact of the slave trade on the cultures of France and its colonies has received surprisingly little attention. Until recently, France had not publicly acknowledged its history as a major slave-trading power. The distinguished scholar Christopher L. Miller proposes a thorough assessment of the French slave trade and its...

The Invention of Evening: Perception and Time in Romantic Poetry
ISBN: 9780521123495 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Lyric poetry has long been considered an art form of timelessness, but Romantic poets became fascinated by one time above all others: evening, the threshold between day and night. Christopher R. Miller investigates the cultural background of this development. The tradition of evening poetry runs from the idyllic settings of Virgil to the urban twilights of T. S. Eliot, and flourished in the works of Coleridge, Wordsworth, Shelley and Keats. In fresh readings of familiar Romantic poems, Miller shows how evening settings enabled poets to represent the passage of time and to associate it with...

Surprise: The Poetics of the Unexpected from Milton to Austen
ISBN: 9780801453694 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Today, in the era of the spoiler alert, surprise in fiction is primarily associated with an unexpected plot twist, but in earlier usage, the word had darker and more complex meanings. Originally denoting a military ambush or physical assault, surprise went through a major semantic shift in the eighteenth century: from violent attack to pleasurable experience, and from external event to internal feeling. In Surprise, Christopher R. Miller studies that change as it took shape in literature ranging from Paradise Lost through the novels of Jane Austen. Miller argues that...

Blank Darkness: Africanist Discourse in French
ISBN: 9780226526225 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 283 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. ""Blank Darkness: Africanist Discourse in French "is a brilliant and altogether convincing analysis of the way in which Western writers, from Homer to the twentieth century have . . . imposed their language of desire on the least-known part of the world and have called it 'Africa.' There are excellent readings here of writers ranging from Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Sade, and Celine to Conrad and Yambo Ouologuem, but even more impressive and important than these individual readings is Mr. Miller's wide-ranging, incisive, and exact analysis of 'Africanist' discourse, what it has been and what it has...
