Imaginary Ethnographies: Literature, Culture, and Subjectivity
ISBN: 9780231159494 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Through readings of iconic figures such as the cannibal, the child, the alien, and the posthuman, Gabriele Schwab analyzes literary explorations at the boundaries of the human. Treating literature as a dynamic medium that "writes culture"--one that makes the abstract particular and local, and situates us within the world--Schwab pioneers a compelling approach to reading literary texts as "anthropologies of the future" that challenge habitual productions of meaning and knowledge. Schwab's study draws on anthropology, philosophy, critical theory, and psychoanalysis to trace literature's...

ISBN: 9780674853812 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How do aesthetic forms contribute to different kinds of cultural knowledge? Gabriele Schwab responds to this question with an analysis of the nature of subjectivity in modernist fiction.

The result of this exploration is a new understanding of the function of literature as a form... How do aesthetic forms contribute to different kinds of cultural knowledge?

Haunting Legacies: Violent Histories and Transgenerational Trauma
ISBN: 9780231152570 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. From mass murder to genocide, slavery to colonial suppression, acts of atrocity have lives that extend far beyond the horrific moment. They engender trauma that echoes for generations, in the experiences of those on both sides of the act. Gabriele Schwab reads these legacies in a number of narratives, primarily through the writing of postwar Germans and the descendents of Holocaust survivors. She connects their work to earlier histories of slavery and colonialism and to more recent events, such as South African Apartheid, the practice of torture after 9/11, and the "disappearances" that...

"The book not only confirms the high ethical stakes in informed contemporary reading; it offers a rare readerly pleasure in... exploring the wider cultural significance of gender and the body and their narrative representation." --Henry Sussman, SUNY-Buffalo Gabriele Schwab revitalizes debates about literature's cultural function by exploring literary experience as an encounter with otherness. Drawing on literary theory, anthropology, and psychoanalysis, Schwab contends that literature facilitates contact with cultures that may seem foreign to us. At the same time, literature can...

ISBN: 9789042034167 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 231 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Clones, Fakes and Posthumans: Cultures of replication" explores cloning and related phenomena that inform each other, like twins, fakes, replica, or homogeneities, through a cultural prism. What could it mean to think of a cloning mentality? Could it be that a "cloning culture" has made biotechnological cloning desirable in the first place, and vice versa that biotechnological cloning then enforces technologies of social and cultural cloning? What does it mean to say that a culture replicates? If biotechnological cloning has to do with choice and repetitive reproduction of selected...
