9/11: The Culture of Commemoration
ISBN: 9780226759395 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. After the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, a general sense that the world was different that nothing would ever be the same settled upon a grieving nation; the events of that day were received as cataclysmic disruptions of an ordered world. Refuting this claim, David Simpson examines the complex and paradoxical character of American public discourse since that September morning, considering the ways the event has been aestheticized, exploited, and appropriated, while Ground Zero remains the contested site of an effort at adequate commemoration.
In "9/11, "Simpson argues that... After the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, a general sense that the world was different that nothing would ever be the same settled upon a gri...

The Rediscovery of Classical Economics: Adaptation, Complexity and Growth
ISBN: 9781781951965 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. David Simpson skilfully argues that a market economy can be best understood as a human complex system, a perspective that represents a continuation of the classical tradition in economic thought. In the classical tradition, growth rather than allocative efficiency is the principal object of enquiry, economic phenomena are recognised to be elements of processes rather than structures, and change is evolutionary.

Wordsworth and the Figurings of the Real
ISBN: 9781349057801 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 183 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Perhaps the most powerful feature of the Romantic imagination is its ability to dissolve existing form and order and create it anew. The Romantic investigation of the functions of the imagination also leads to important insights concerning its problems and dangers. Because it separates the person experiencing it from others around him, the imagination introduces ways of seeing which cannot be assumed to be simply communicable or easily shared, and which have as their objects different forms or 'things'. These forms, or figures, risk becoming for their originators both vehicles of power, in so...

Situatedness, or, Why We Keep Saying Where We re Coming From
ISBN: 9780822328391 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Let me tell you where I'm coming from . . ."--so begins many a discussion in contemporary U.S. culture. Pressed by an almost compulsive desire to situate ourselves within a definite matrix of reference points (for example, "as a parent of two children" or "as an engineer" or "as a college graduate") in both scholarly inquiry and everyday parlance, we seem to reject adamantly the idea of a universal human subject. Yet what does this rhetoric of self-affiliation tell us? What is its history? David Simpson's "Situatedness" casts a critical eye on this currently popular form of identification,...

The Academic Postmodern and the Rule of Literature: A Report on Half-Knowledge
ISBN: 9780226759500 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 211 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This brilliantly argued book is an entirely fresh critique of the postmodern turn. David Simpson sets his sights on the most distinctive aspects of postmodern scholarship: the pervasiveness of the literary and the flight from grand theory to local knowledge.
Simpson examines defining features of postmodern thought storytelling, autobiography, anecdote, and localism and traces their unacknowledged roots in literature and literary criticism. Considering such examples as the conversational turn in philosophy led by Richard Rorty and the anecdotal qualities of the New Historicism, he argues...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Antony Gormley's Angel of the North has only been around since 1998 but it is hard to imagine Gateshead without it.

Wordsworth, Commodification, and Social Concern
ISBN: 9780521898775 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This reading of Wordworth's poetry by leading critic David Simpson centres on its almost obsessive representation of spectral forms and images of death in life. Wordsworth is reacting, Simpson argues, to the massive changes in the condition of England and the modern world at the turn of the century: mass warfare; the increased scope of machine-driven labour and urbanisation; and the expanding power of commodity form in rendering economic and social exchange more and more abstract, more and more distant from human agency and control. Reading Wordsworth alongside Marx and Derrida, Simpson...

Romanticism, Nationalism, and the Revolt Against Theory
ISBN: 9780226759463 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Why has Anglo-American culture for so long regarded "theory" with intense suspicion? In this important contribution to the history of critical theory, David Simpson argues that a nationalist myth underlies contemporary attacks on theory. Theory's antagonists, Simpson shows, invoke the same criteria of common sense and national solidarity as did the British intellectuals who rebelled against "theory" and "method" during the French Revolution.
