ISBN: 9781138148918 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The influence of colonialism and race on the development of African literature has been the subject of a number of studies.

Folly Beach
ISBN: 9781531666583 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Folly Beach was not named for its carefree inhabitants' lifestyles, but it is a fitting moniker nonetheless. Originally dubbed "Folly" for its dense foliage and forests just across the marsh from James Island and Charleston, the six-mile sliver of land has served as an outpost for Civil War soldiers, an inspiration to George Gershwin, and a place of fond memories for thousands of residents, vacationers, and day-trippers seeking time to relax in the sea and sand. Long before Folly became a place for respite and relaxation, however, it served as a quarantine island for sick sailors,...

Under the Water Was Stone
ISBN: 9781941058145 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 98 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Here are the hills and rivers, mountains and oceans, lakes, rocks, and trees. Real people haunt these places-both alive and dead-and what is visible within them is as important as what is hidden. Under the Water Was Stone takes notice of the small, the ugly, the dirty, the used, the broken, the bloodied. Guiding the reader from place to place, person to person, time to time, this collection emits a certain longing: to provide a voice for those who might not have one, to speak to those who might not know, and to make real what can otherwise be dismissed or pretended.

ISBN: 9781556132803 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Accomack County is one of the two ancient counties on Virginia's Eastern Shore, a region of much genealogical and historical interest. The "land causes" abstracted here refer to chancery suits regarding dower rights, divisions of land among heirs, ejectment proceedings, etc. These files are likely to contain the declaration of the plaintiff, the answer of the defendant, depositions by various parties which frequently give dates of birth, death, or marriage for key parties to the suit, and the verdict of the jury. In many cases ownership of the land is traced down from the original grant...

The Politics of Irony in American Modernism
ISBN: 9780823255450 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Shortlisted for the 2015 Modernist Studies Association Book Prize This book shows how American literary culture in the first half of the twentieth century saw "irony" emerge as a term to describe intersections between aesthetic and political practices. Against conventional associations of irony with political withdrawal, Stratton shows how the term circulated widely in literary and popular culture to describe politically engaged forms of writing. It is a critical commonplace to acknowledge the difficulty of defining irony before stipulating a particular definition as a stable point of...
