Slaves and Warriors in Medieval Britain and Ireland, 800 -1200
ISBN: 9789004175334 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Modern sensibilities have clouded historical views of slavery, perhaps more so than any other medieval social institution. Anachronistic economic rationales and notions about the progression of European civilisation have immeasurably distorted our view of slavery in the medieval context. As a result historians have focussed their efforts upon explaining the disappearance of this medieval institution rather than seeking to understand it. This book highlights the extreme cultural/social significance of slavery for the societies of medieval Britain and Ireland c. 800-1200. Concentrating upon the...

And the War Came : An Accidental Memoir
ISBN: 9780299201708 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The prevailing mood of my early and Ann s mid-fifties has been one of the sense of an ending, surely, but more than that, of a gathering urgency. . . . Fewer of the moments between us feel rehearsed, or forced. And now, just as we had begun to glimpse something like wisdom, glimmering over the horizon, the world smacks the hell out of us. I am strangely grateful, even so, if only for the felt return, in recent days, of the possibility of strong emotion. The prevailing mood of my early and Ann s mid-fifties has been one of the sense of an ending, surely, but more than that, of a gathering urgency. .... |

Out of the Sixties: Storytelling and the Vietnam Generation
ISBN: 9780521446891 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In a highly original study, David Wyatt takes a broad, yet personal, look at the cultural legacy of the sixties through ten creative figures who came of age during the Vietnam War. Wyatt argues that it is each artist's "personal engagement" with his or her own era that binds together the achievements of storytellers such as filmmaker George Lucas, songwriter Bruce Springsteen, playwright Sam Shepard, journalist Michael Herr, writers Ann Beattie, Alice Walker, Ethan Mordden, Sue Miller, and poets Gregory Orr, and Louise Gluck. For some their work is marked by the war and concerned directly...

The Fall Into Eden: Landscape and Imagination in California
ISBN: 9780521397513 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this book, David Wyatt examines the mythology of California as it is reflected in the literature of the region.

Hemingway, Style, and the Art of Emotion
ISBN: 9781107109827 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Hemingway, Style, and the Art of Emotion, David Wyatt shows that the work of Ernest Hemingway is marked more by vulnerability and deep feeling than by the stoic composure and ironic remove for which it is widely known. This major reassessment of the shape of Hemingway's career recovers the soul of the author's work, revealing him as a multifaceted writer rather than a cold, static icon. Wyatt claims that Hemingway's famous early style does not embrace emotional reticence but works instead to measure the cost of keeping thoughts and feelings under the surface. By the early 1930s Hemingway...

Five Fires: Race, Catastrophe, and the Shaping of California
ISBN: 9780195127416 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this wholly original study, David Wyatt uses the metaphor of fire to tell the story of California. Wyatt focuses this catastrophic history of his native state on five events of social combustion and tangible fire that swept through California, altering its physical and political landscape and the way both were represented in art and literature.
Wyatt begins with the accidental importation and spread of the wild oat in the 1770s, a process that had its human parallel in the Spanish invaders. He then explores the impact of four other significant events: the Gold Rush, the 1906 earthquake...

Secret Histories: Reading Twentieth-Century American Literature
ISBN: 9780801897122 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Secret Histories claims that the history of the nation is hidden--in plain sight--within the pages of twentieth-century American literature. David Wyatt argues that the nation's fiction and nonfiction expose a -secret history- that cuts beneath the -straight histories- of our official accounts. And it does so by revealing personal stories of love, work, family, war, and interracial romance as they were lived out across the decades of the twentieth century. Wyatt reads authors both familiar and neglected, examining -double consciousness- in the post-Civil War era through...

Death of a Ghost
ISBN: 9780007128587 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A sinister and chilling ghost story from the author of THE FETCH OF MARDY WATT and CALYPSO DREAMING. When Ossian reluctantly returns to Lychfont House - a country house with pretensions to match - with his artist father, he finds things bizarrely familiar and yet oddly different. Reacquainting himself with the Frazer family, he finds himself questioning the accuracy of certain childhood memories and wondering why the place seems to hold such power over him. One thing he IS sure of, however: the ghosts are still haunting him. While Ossian puzzles over his existence, an ancient...
