Revolutionary Writers: Literature and Authority in the New Republic, 1725-1810
ISBN: 9780195039955 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

New Essays on Invisible Man
ISBN: 9780521313698 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Published less than fifty years ago, Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man shares with older classic works the odd quality of seeming to have been in place much longer. It is a novel that encompasses much of the American scene and character: though told by a single Afro-American voice and set in the contemporary South and then in modern New York City, its references are to the First World War, to Reconstruction, to the Civil War and slavery, to the founding of the American republic, to Columbus, and to the country's frontier past. In his introduction to this volume Robert O'Meally discusses Ellison's...
