Since the early 1980s, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of international gay/lesbian-themed visual productions, ranging from pornographic images and television programmes to advertising and graphic novels.

This book explores the multifaceted concepts of otherness, barbarism and exteriority. Is encountering the Other still possible in a world in which we all have become rootless, disconnected and strangers, alienated from the outside world and from ourselves? Does the question of Otherness still bear a meaning after the deconstruction of the self and the crumbling of the very concept of identity? The author examines some major twentieth-century poetic responses to the violent denial of otherness and difference in modern Europe. The myth of Medea is brought in to reflect upon the tragic history...

The Speaking Divine Woman: López de Úbeda's La Pícara Justina and Goethe's Wilhelm Meister
ISBN: 9783906766911 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Drawing on the Spanish Kabbalah s account of the divine speaking Woman, analysed in terms derived from contemporary feminist stylistics especially the speculative-cum-theological variety associated with Luce Irigaray s work this study examines the problem of female self-presentation in two novels from quite different cultural periods and national literary contexts. The study concludes that the two works participate in the long history of kabbalistic-hermetic reflexion on the nature and status of the Divine Feminine and its expression in language. The deft deployment of current French feminist...

Masking Strategies: Unwrapping the French Paratext
ISBN: 9783034307468 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Gerard Genette s seminal study of the paratext, Seuils (1987), is the starting point for this collection of essays, all of which seek not only to engage with Genette s taxonomy and apply it, but also to interrogate it and to move through and beyond it. In addition to mapping Genette s organization of (para)textual space onto a number of French texts, including novels and plays, texts translated into French, book series and publishing marketing material, these essays take up some of the challenges raised in Seuils as well as posing their own. For example, the relationship between...

This study examines three main aspects of Jorge Luis Borges s reading of Dante Alighieri, namely, poetic language, ethics and love. It attempts to reveal the ways in which Borges s interests in these issues manifested themselves in his appropriation of Dante and gained prominence within his work as a whole, paying particular attention to the years c.1920-c.1960. By developing each aspect in a comparative sequence the work illustrates the way in which these issues developed in Borges s work and, at the same time, provides a general perspective from which the reader can gauge their significance...

Poetics of the Antilles: Poetry, History and Philosophy in the Writings of Perse, Césaire, Fanon and Glissant
ISBN: 9783034308953 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 374 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The essays collected in this volume study the poetry and thought of four major Francophone Caribbean writers: Saint-John Perse, Aime Cesaire, Frantz Fanon and Edouard Glissant. In a context where identity was a question, an original conception of subjectivity appeared, as the end point rather than the origin of a process which was inseparably poetic and political. It entailed an aesthetics of dispersion or errance, rather than belonging. This volume thus questions the traditional teleological narrative of negritude as 'renaissance' or 'awakening'. A careful look at the birth of...

Dans la seconde moitie du XIXe siecle, la parodie connait un veritable age d or meme si elle reste souvent consideree comme parasitique. C est la fin de siecle qui va peu a peu lui donner ses lettres de noblesse en lui permettant de venir coincider avec les pratiques de la modernite. Aux XXe et XXIe siecles,...

Les mots sont complices dans le cramponnement humain aux realites perimees, et toutefois le langage ne cesse d evoluer par des processus de deplacement et de remplacement. En sus de la nature apparemment statique des cliches, cette etude se concentre donc sur le potentiel...

Michel Houellebecq: Author of Our Times
ISBN: 9783039113736 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 219 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Michel Houellebecq is a French author whose profile in the English-speaking world is unusually high. He is an author who has put the humour back into the Absurd, without losing any of the awareness of the bleakness of the human condition. Undoubtedly one of the most trenchant satirists of our time, he deflates the projected utopias that we imagine protect us from the ills that beset us. More than many other novelists, his work is a reflection of the social and economic reality of life in a post-industrial society. Houellebecq shows a world of violence and tension, a world where people find it...

Nomadic Literature: Cees Nooteboom and His Writing
ISBN: 9783034307291 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 247 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Cees Nooteboom (born 1933) is a writer of fiction, poetry and travel literature. Translated into at least thirty-four languages, his work raises important questions about the mobility of literary texts and invites a new theoretical approach, for to read Nooteboom straightforwardly as a Dutch author would be to do him an injustice. In this book, his fiction and travel writing are discussed on the basis of his English oeuvre, while the chapter on his poetry moves between Dutch and English editions. The first part of the study reflects on texts crossing boundaries and the ways in which literary...
