Nomadic Literature: Cees Nooteboom and His Writing
ISBN: 9783034307291 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 247 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Cees Nooteboom (born 1933) is a writer of fiction, poetry and travel literature. Translated into at least thirty-four languages, his work raises important questions about the mobility of literary texts and invites a new theoretical approach, for to read Nooteboom straightforwardly as a Dutch author would be to do him an injustice. In this book, his fiction and travel writing are discussed on the basis of his English oeuvre, while the chapter on his poetry moves between Dutch and English editions. The first part of the study reflects on texts crossing boundaries and the ways in which literary...

Crossing Borders: The Interrelation of Fact and Fiction in Historical Works, Travel Tales, Autobiography and Reportage
ISBN: 9783034319959 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the twentieth century, the boundaries between different literary genres started to be questioned, raising a discussion about the various narrative modes of factual and fictional discourses.
Moving on from the limited traditional studies of genre definitions, this book argues that the borders between these two types of discourse depend on complex issues of epistemology, literary traditions and social and political constraints. This study attempts a systematic and specific analysis of how literary works, and in particular documentary ones, where the borders are more difficult to define,...

This study examines three main aspects of Jorge Luis Borges s reading of Dante Alighieri, namely, poetic language, ethics and love. It attempts to reveal the ways in which Borges s interests in these issues manifested themselves in his appropriation of Dante and gained prominence within his work as a whole, paying particular attention to the years c.1920-c.1960. By developing each aspect in a comparative sequence the work illustrates the way in which these issues developed in Borges s work and, at the same time, provides a general perspective from which the reader can gauge their significance...

La parodie (souvent indissociable du terme - pastiche -) est une notion passe-partout qui recouvre des pratiques fort diverses et a donne lieu a de multiples definitions a travers les ages, d Aristote aux theories modernes derivees de l intertextualite en passant par Bakhtine et Genette. Dans la seconde moitie du XIXe siecle, la parodie connait un veritable age d or meme si elle reste souvent consideree comme parasitique. C est la fin de siecle qui va peu a peu lui donner ses lettres de noblesse en lui permettant de venir coincider avec les pratiques de la modernite. Aux XXe et XXIe siecles,...

Subversion Ou Conformisme ?: La Différence Des Sexes Dans l'Oeuvre d'Agota Kristof
ISBN: 9783034317139 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Cet ouvrage propose une etude de la question du genre dans l uvre d Agota Kristof, ecrivaine suisse francophone d origine hongroise. La preponderance des narrateurs masculins dans sa prose suggere la superiorite du masculin; ceci se reflete aussi sur le plan du contenu de son uvre, car les personnages feminins sont plutot marginalises et relegues a la sphere domestique. Neanmoins, les themes de la violence contre les femmes, de leur folie et de la prostitution demontrent un souci de presenter leur condition dans la societe. Pour elucider cette contradiction, l analyse detaillee des textes...

After the key moments of the livre d artiste (from Manet/Mallarme to Picasso/Reverdy) and Surrealist art, how did the text/image relationship evolve in twentieth-century French culture?

Cet ouvrage presente une etude de la problematique du temps dans les ecrits de Marguerite Duras. Souvent definie par la critique comme une ecriture de l instant, l ecriture durassienne a jusqu ici ete interpretee comme l expression d un desillusionnement politique et existentiel de l ecrivain. Ce travail s inscrit contre cette interpretation qui passe sous silence le drame qui anime l uvre, un drame ou se negocie le message de Duras face au tragique de l existence et de l Histoire. A travers l analyse detaillee de textes publies et de manuscrits de l ecrivain, cette etude fait interagir...

The globalisation of culture and the shifting nature of national identities have propelled the stakes of memory and identity to the forefront of current intellectual debates.

Parasites: Exploitation and Interference in French Thought and Culture
ISBN: 9783034322669 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The word "parasite" evokes nearness and feeding: the Greek parasitos is "one who eats at the table of another". In biology, a parasitic organism is the beneficiary of an unequal relation with its host. The social parasite, too, is one recognized or misrecognized as the unproductive recipient of one-way exchange. In communications theory, meanwhile, static or interference ("parasite", in French) is the useless information which clouds the channel between sender and receiver. In 1980, Michel Serres's Le Parasite mobilized the concept of the parasite to figure noises, disruptions,...

Space: New Dimensions in French Studies
ISBN: 9783039101788 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 169 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book, which is the fruit of papers presented at the seventh Cambridge French Graduate Conference, offers innovative analyses of how space can provide metaphors for human thoughts, utterances and experiences. The authors cross-fertilise different approaches to the significance of space as a thematic and structuring principle in French and Francophone poetry, prose, philosophy and film. They are interested in three broad areas of enquiry: how spaces can be suffused with explorations of identity; how the dividing work done by maps marks and makes spaces; and how particular questions are...
