Writing of America: Literature and Cultural Identity from the Puritans to the Present
ISBN: 9780745626222 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In this lively and provocative study, Geoff Ward puts forward the bold claim that the founding documents of American identity are essentially literary. America was invented, not discovered, and it remains in thrall to the myth of an earthly Paradise. This is Paradise, and American ideology imprisons as it inspires.
The Writing of America shows the tension between these forces in a wide range of literary and other texts, from Puritan sermons and the Declaration of Independence, through nineteenth-century classics, to folk and blues lyrics and the popular novel. Alongside... In this lively and provocative study, Geoff Ward puts forward the bold claim that the founding documents of American identity are essentially literary...

The Black Child-Savers: Racial Democracy and Juvenile Justice
ISBN: 9780226873183 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the Progressive Era, a rehabilitative agenda took hold of American juvenile justice, materializing as a citizen-and-state-building project and mirroring the unequal racial politics of American democracy itself. Alongside this liberal "manufactory of citizens," a parallel structure was enacted: a Jim Crow juvenile justice system that endured across the nation for most of the twentieth century. In The Black Child Savers, the first study of the rise and fall of Jim Crow juvenile justice, Geoff Ward examines the origins and organization of this separate and unequal juvenile justice...
