Perfidious Albion: The story of Stendhal and British culture
ISBN: 9781912224005 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 1 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "What to make of the British?" is a question that puzzled Stendhal throughout his whole life. In this new work, which is both a biography and an exercise in cultural history, David Ellis brings to bear on the issues it raises much new and unfamiliar information. Italy is the foreign country with which Stendhal is most commonly associated. The multiplicity of his Italian connections makes it less surprising that so much has been written about them, and so comparatively little about his consuming interest in British culture. Yet this book makes a strong case for believing that Britain mattered...

D. H. Lawrence's Non-Fiction: Art, Thought and Genre
ISBN: 9780521115797 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is the first book devoted entirely to Lawrence's nonfictional writings. It focuses on a selection of representative texts, each of which is placed in an appropriate literary or historical context. These include the 'Study of Thomas Hardy', the two books about the Unconscious, the travel-writing - primarily Twilight in Italy and Sea and Sardinia - the largely autobiographical 'Introduction to Memoirs of the Foreign Legion by M. M' and the late 'thoughts in verse' called Pansies. David Ellis and Howard Mills challenge the automatic relegation to secondary status suffered by these works in...

Death and the Author: How D. H. Lawrence Died, and Was Remembered
ISBN: 9780199546657 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. At the heart of Death and the Author is a dramatic account of D. H. Lawrence's desperate struggle against tuberculosis during his last days, and of certain, often bizarre events which followed his death. Around this narrative David Ellis offers a series of reflections about what it is like to have a disease for which there is no cure, the appeal of alternative medicine, the temptation of suicide for the terminally ill, the diminishing role of religion in modern life, the institution of famous last words, the consequences of dying intestate, and so on. These are clearly not the most...

Writing Home: Black Writing in Britain Since the War
ISBN: 9783898215916 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. When the SS Empire Windrush berthed at Tilbury docks in 1948 with 492 ex-servicemen from the Caribbean, it marked the beginning of the post-war migrations to Britain that would form part of modern, multi-cultural Britain. A significant role in this social transformation would be played by the literary and non-literary output of writers from the Caribbean. These writers in exile were responsible not just for the establishment of the West Indian novel, but, by virtue of their location in the Mother Country, were also the pioneers of black writing in Britain. Over the next fifty years, this...

Blasted with Antiquity: Old Age and the Consolations of Literature
ISBN: 9780718897185 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Given the increasing number of old people, the proliferation of books about old age is hardly surprising. Most of these come from cultural historians or social scientists and, when those with a literary background have tackled the subject, they have largely done so through what are known as period studies. In Blasted with Antiquity, David Ellis provides an alternative. Skipping nimbly from Cicero to Shakespeare, and from Wordsworth to Dickens and beyond, he discusses various aspects of old age with the help of writers across European history who have usually been regarded as worth listening...

The Truth about William Shakespeare: Fact, Fiction and Modern Biographies
ISBN: 9780748646678 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How can biographies of Shakespeare continue to appear when so little is known about him? And when what is known has been in the public domain for so long? In the past decade, the majority of these biographies have been published by distinguished Shakespeareans - shouldn't they know better? To solve this puzzle, David Ellis looks at the methods that Shakespeare's biographers have used to hide their lack of knowledge. At the same time, by exploring efforts to write a life of Shakespeare along traditional lines, it asks what kind of animal "biography" really is and how it should be written.

Wordsworth, Freud and the Spots of Time: Interpretation in 'The Prelude'
ISBN: 9780521128520 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The passages in Wordsworth's Prelude known as the 'spots of time' have always been regarded as important and impressive but have seldom been satisfactorily explained. Whilst there is general agreement about how well they are written, there is none at all about what they might mean. David Ellis sets out to resolve this paradox and, since the passages which concern him deal with very private moments in Wordsworth's life and have an interest which is largely psychological, he considers how far a knowledge of Freud might be relevant to their understanding. His attempt to clarify what is at once...

D.H. Lawrence's Women in Love: A Casebook
ISBN: 9780195170276 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Although D. H. Lawrence's stock has fallen in recent times there are now signs of a revival. Of all his works, Women in Love is widely regarded as the most complex and rewarding. Apart from the classic essay by Joyce Carol Oates, all the items collected in this volume were published after 1990. Written by scholars from the United Kingdom, France, Australia and Canada, as well as the United States, they illustrate both the way recent theoretical developments in literary studies can be made relevant to readings of Lawrence and the healthy persistence of traditional methods of analysis....
