Religion and the War
ISBN: 9781514379028 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In one of our more thoughtful magazines we were favored last February with an article entitled, "Peter Sat by the Fire Warming Himself." It was a bitter, undiscriminating arraignment of the ministers and churches of the United States for their alleged lack of intelligent, sympathetic interest in the war. It was written by an Englishman who for several years has been vacillating between the ministry and secular journalism, but is now the pastor of a small church in northern New York. The vigor of his literary style in trenchant criticism was matched by an equally vigorous disregard for many of...

Modernism, Empire, World Literature
ISBN: 9781108492355 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. After World War I, American, Irish and then Caribbean writers boldly remade the world literary system long dominated by Paris and London. Responding to literary renaissances and social upheavals in their own countries and to the decline of war-devastated Europe, emigre and domestic-based writers produced dazzling new works that challenged London's or Paris's authority to fix and determine literary value. In so doing, they propounded new conceptions of aesthetic accomplishment that were later codified as 'modernism'. However, after World War II, an assertive American literary establishment...

The Irish Expatriate Novel in Late Capitalist Globalization
ISBN: 9781108833578 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This study of contemporary Irish expatriate fiction offers a boldly original world-facing rather than nation-focused overview of the contemporary Irish novel. Chapters examine how Irish narrative deals with the United States in a time of declining global hegemony, a rising China and Asia, a thwarted and turbulent Global South, and a European Union that has decisively reshaped Ireland in the last half century. The author argues that in a late capitalist world defined by volatile economic and cultural globalizations, the Irish novel is struggling to imagine new ways to narrate the country's...

Architectural Aesthetics: Appreciating Architecture As An Art
ISBN: 9781350211001 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The fine arts are traditionally seen to have intrinsic value: that is, they are valuable in themselves. But this poses a problem for architecture: its works are designed to serve our purposes, and therefore it is classed as functional. Carving out a new space, Edward Winters argues why architecture is a fine art and finds a place for the fine art of architecture in the cultural environment in which we structure our lives. Winters reconciles intrinsic value, as a fine art, with extrinsic value, as shelter, security and comfort, without collapsing into the modernist conception of...

For him, nothing seems to connect. He appears to himself caught in a never ending treadmill of "sameness."

His job is dull and made worse by the same uninteresting but necessary people. On the verge of micro insanity, he suddenly decides to return back to his childhood place of birth....
