Models of Misrepresentation: On the Fiction of E.L. Doctorow
ISBN: 9781604735284 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The work of E.L. Doctorow is most often seen as a political and cultural critique of eras of American history, like the settlement of the West, the Gilded Age, the Depression, or the beginnings of the Cold War. In his fiction critics have found searching and subversive questions concerning received national values. At the same time, they have seen him as a literary experimentor, comparing his with the work of such modernist writers as Faulkner and Hemingway. Models of Misrepresentation, an original and comprehensive reading of Doctorow's work, considers both these views under... The work of E.L.

Becoming Southern: The Evolution of a Way of Life, Warren County and Vicksburg, Mississippi, 1770-1860
ISBN: 9780195134216 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Mississippi represented the Old South and all that it stood for--perhaps more so than any other state. Tracing its long histories of economic, social, and cultural evolution, Morris takes a close and richly detailed look at a representative Southern community: Jefferson Davis's Warren County, in the state's southwestern corner. Drawing on many wills, deeds, court records, and manuscript materials, he reveals the transformation of a loosely knit, typically Western community of pioneer homesteaders into a distinctly Southern society based on plantation agriculture, slavery, and a patriarchal...

An Essay on the Modern State
ISBN: 9780521524070 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This important book is the first serious philosophical examination of the modern state. It inquires into the justification of this particular form of political society.

The author concludes that, while states can be legitimate, they typically fail to have the powers (e.g. sovereignity) that they claim. Christopher Morris has written a book that will command the attention of political philosophers, political scientists, legal theorists, and...

Modernism and the Cult of Mountains: Music, Opera, Cinema
ISBN: 9780754669708 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Adopting and transforming the Romantic fascination with mountains, modernism in the German-speaking lands claimed the Alps as a space both of resistance and of escape. This new 'cult of mountains' reacted to the symptoms and alienating forces associated with modern culture, defining and reinforcing models of subjectivity based on renewed wholeness and an aggressive attitude to physical and mental health. The arts were critical to this project, none more so than music, which occupied a similar space in Austro-German culture: autonomous, pure, sublime. In Modernism and the Cult of Mountains...
