Goddess Natura in Medieval Literature
ISBN: 9780268029555 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

In this history of the Goddess Natura, Economou provides a full-length study of her philosophical background and the literary traditions that contributed to her image. He focuses on the Renaissance of the 12th century, when a new kind of allegory appeared that celebrated and explored the nature of the cosmos. He analyses the central role that Natura...

William Langland's Piers Plowman: The C Version
ISBN: 9780812215618 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. William Langland's Piers Plowman is one of the major poetic monuments of medieval England and of world literature. Probably composed between 1372 and 1389, the poem survives in three distinct versions. It is known to modern readers largely through the middle of the three, the so-called B-text. Now, George Economou's verse translation of the poet's third version makes available for the first time in modern English the final revision of a work that many have regarded as the greatest Christian poem in our language. Langland's remarkable powers of invention and his passionate... William Langland's Piers Plowman is one of the major poetic monuments of medieval England and of world literature.

ANANIOS OF KLEITOR introduces to the revolving stage of world literature the work of an ancient Greek poet largely unknown and hitherto unread outside of a small circle of cognoscenti.

Ananios...

Poem of the Cid: A Modern Translation with Notes by Paul Blackburn
ISBN: 9780806130224 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Few works have shaped a national literature as thoroughly as the Poem of the Cid has shaped the Spanish literary tradition. Tracing the life of the eleventh-century military commander Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar, called El Cid (from the Arabic Sayyidi, "My Lord"), this medieval epic describes a series of events surrounding his exile. The text of the poem survives in only one early-thirteenth-century manuscript copied by a single scribe, yet centuries later the figure of the Cid still was celebrated in the Spanish popular ballad tradition. Today almost every theme that characterizes Spanish...
