Benjamin Franklin, writes Douglas Anderson in his preface, is -no one's contemporary... Blending elements of the fifteenth-century spiritual discipline of Thomas a Kempis with the journalistic energy of Daniel Defoe, the urbane reason of Lord Shaftesbury with the scientific initiative of Thomas Edison, Franklin places exceptional demands on the historical imagination of his readers--demands that are inevitably slighted by writers who emphasize only one set of interests or one facet of a complex temperament.- In The Radical Enlightenments of Benjamin Franklin Anderson takes a...

Pictures of Ascent in the Fiction of Edgar Allan Poe
ISBN: 9780230619432 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 201 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. With an unconventional new perspective, Anderson identifies Edgar Allan Poe's texts as a journey and explores the ways Poe both encounters and transcends the realm of the material. Beginning with Poe's earliest short stories through his last fragment of imaginative prose, this book shows the path that Poe traveled as he came to understand how to transform "rudimentary" into "ultimate" life. Anderson skillfully argues that Poe's response to the existential predicament of life lies at the heart of his achievement.

William Bradford's Books: Of Plimmoth Plantation and the Printed Word
ISBN: 9780801870743 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Widely regarded as the most important narrative of seventeenth-century New England, William Bradford's Of Plimmoth Plantation is one of the founding documents of American literature and history. In William Bradford's Books this portrait of the religious dissenters who emigrated from the Netherlands to New England in 1620 receives perhaps its sharpest textual analysis to date--and the first since that of Samuel Eliot Morison two generations ago. Far from the gloomy elegy that many readers find, Bradford's history, argues Douglas Anderson, demonstrates remarkable ambition and...

A House Undivided: Domesticity and Community in American Literature
ISBN: 9780521382878 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A whole range of American writers have focused on images of household, domestic virtue, and the feminine or feminized hero. This important new book examines the persistence and flexibility of such themes in the work of classic writers from Ann Bradstreet through Jefferson and Franklin to Hawthorne, Melville, Whitman, and Emily Dickinson. Without minimizing the differences that divide these figures, Anderson shows the extent to which, in their various circumstances, they were all committed to a common enterprise--a social and cultural reconstruction based on the domestic values of the ideal...

The Introspective Art of Mark Twain
ISBN: 9781501329548 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Introspective Art of Mark Twain is a major new assessment of a towering American writer. Seeking to trace the development of Mark Twain's imagination, Douglas Anderson begins near the end of Twain's life, with the long dialogue What Is Man? that Twain published anonymously in 1906. In Twain's view, the little-read What Is Man? lies at the heart of his creative life. It is the central aesthetic testament that he employed to tell the story of his artistic evolution. Anderson follows the contours of that story as it unfolds over Twain's career. The portrait that emerges...

The Unfinished Life of Benjamin Franklin
ISBN: 9781421405230 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Benjamin Franklin wrote his posthumously published memoir--a model of the genre--in several pieces and in different temporal and physical places. Douglas Anderson's study of this work reveals the famed inventor as a literary adept whose approach to autobiographical narrative was as innovative and radical as the inventions and political thought for which he is renowned. Franklin never completed his autobiography, choosing instead to immerse his reader in the formal and textual atmosphere of a deliberately -unfinished- life. Taking this decision on Franklin's part as a starting point,...

Conversations on Peirce: Reals and Ideals
ISBN: 9780823234684 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The essays in this book have grown out of conversations between the authors--and their colleagues and students--over the past decade and a half. Their germinal question concerned the ways in which Charles Sanders Peirce was and was not both an idealist and a realist. The dialogue began as an exploration of Peirce's explicit uses of these ideas and then turned to consider the way in which answers to the initial question shed light on other dimensions of
Peirce's architectonic. The essays explore the nature of semiotic interpretation, perception, and inquiry. Moreover, considering the... The essays in this book have grown out of conversations between the authors--and their colleagues and students--over the past decade and a half. Their...

Philosophy Americana: Making Philosophy at Home in American Culture
ISBN: 9780823225507 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this engaging book, Douglas Anderson begins with the assumption that philosophy--the Greek love of wisdom--is alive and well in American culture. At the same time, professional philosophy remains relatively invisible. Anderson traverses American life to find places in the wider culture where professional philosophy in the distinctively American tradition can strike up a conversation. How might American philosophers talk to us about our religious experience, or political engagement, or literature--or even, popular music? Anderson's second aim is to find places where philosophy happens in...

Tales Before Narnia: The Roots of Modern Fantasy and Science Fiction
ISBN: 9780345498908 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In his acclaimed collection Tales Before Tolkien, Douglas A. Anderson illuminated the sources, inspirations, and influences that fired J.R.R. Tolkien's genius. Now Anderson turns his attention to Tolkien's colleague and friend C. S. Lewis, whose influence on modern fantasy, through his beloved Narnia books, is second only to Tolkien's own.
In many ways, Lewis's influence has been even wider than Tolkien's. For in addition to the Narnia series, Lewis wrote groundbreaking works of science fiction, urban fantasy, and religious allegory, and he came to be regarded as among the...
