ISBN: 9780859916141 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Amoral Gower: Language, Sex, and Politics
ISBN: 9780816640287 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 219 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. An innovative reading of John Gower's work and an exciting new approach to medieval vernacular texts. "Moral Gower" he was called by friend and sometime rival Geoffrey Chaucer, and his Confessio Amantis has been viewed as an uncomplicated analysis of the universe, combining erotic narratives with ethical guidance and political commentary. Diane Watt offers the first sustained reading of John Gower's Confessio to argue that this early vernacular text offers no real solutions to the ethical problems it raises--and in fact actively encourages "perverse" readings. Drawing on a combination of...
