A Bright Cold Day: The Wonder of George Orwell
ISBN: 9780861549764 / Angielski / Twarda / 2025 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) When we think about George Orwell, we imagine an angular, moustachioed sceptic crouched over a typewriter, who – between puffs on his cigarette – composes effortless streams of prose, unadorned but explosive. We see a man with ‘Important Things to Say’ about: the slow creep of authoritarianism; the consequences of all-seeing tech; the fragility of truth. Much less often do we see him as a person caught up in the business of everyday life. And yet Orwell’s work thrums with the quotidian: the smell of boiled cabbage, the chill of an unheated flat in early spring, the rumbling of...

Modern John Buchan: A Critical Introduction
ISBN: 9781443813709 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 155 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book offers an introduction to the breadth and diversity of the literary and non-literary work of John Buchan (1875–1940). It stakes a claim for him as an engaged interpreter of twentieth-century modernity, and provides evaluative readings of his output. In addition to demonstrating how Buchan’s work complicates the reductive view of early twentieth-century literature as neatly cordoned-off into “low” and “high” forms of production, this book discusses his theories of empire and imperialism, his account of historiography, and his response to the First World War. In addition...

Utopianism, Modernism, and Literature in the Twentieth Century
ISBN: 9780230358935 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Utopianism, Modernism, and Literature in the Twentieth Century considers the links between utopianism and modernism in two ways: as an under-theorized nexus of aesthetic and political interactions; and as a sphere of confluences that challenges accepted critical models of modernist and twentieth-century literary history. An international group of scholars considers works by E. M. Forster, Ford Madox Ford, Wyndham Lewis, Naomi Mitchison, Katharine Burdekin, Rex Warner, Yevgeny Zamyatin, Thomas Pynchon, Elizabeth Bowen, James Baldwin, Toni Morrison, and Ernst Bloch. In doing so, this volume's...

The Cambridge Companion to Nineteen Eighty-Four
ISBN: 9781108841092 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949) remains a book of the moment. This Companion builds on successive waves of generational inheritance and debate in the novel's reception by asking new questions about how and why Nineteen Eighty-Four was written, what it means, and why it matters. Chapters on a selection of the novel's interpretative contexts, the literary histories from which it is inseparable, the urgent questions it raises, and the impact it has had on other kinds of media, ranging from radio to video games, open up the conversation in an expansive way. Established concerns (e.g....

This collection of essays provides new readings of Huxley's classic dystopian satire, Brave New World (1932).

Wyndham Lewis and the Cultures of Modernity
ISBN: 9781138379602 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Making a strong case for a revaluation of Wyndham Lewis (1882-1957), this collection argues that significant aspects of Lewis's writing, painting, and thinking have not yet received the attention they deserve. The contributors explore Lewis's contributions to the production and circulation of modernism and assess the links between Lewis's writing and painting and the work of other key contemporary figures, to position Lewis not only as one of the first twentieth-century cultural critics but also as one who anticipated the work of the Frankfurt School and other social theorists. Familiar...
