ISBN: 9780807150900 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this expansive study, Bryan Giemza recovers a neglected subculture and retrieves a missing chapter of Irish Catholic heritage by canvassing the literature of American Irish writers from the U.S. South.

Rethinking the Irish in the American South: Beyond Rounders and Reelers
ISBN: 9781617037986 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Studies of the Irish presence in America have tended to look to the main corridors of emigration, and hence outside the American South. Yet the Irish constituted a significant minority in the region. Indeed, the Irish fascination expresses itself in Southern context in powerful, but disparate, registers: music, literature, and often, a sense of shared heritage. Rethinking the Irish in the South aims to create a readable, thorough introduction to the subject, establishing new ground for areas of inquiry. These essays offer a revisionist critique of the Irish in the South, calling...Studies of the Irish presence in America have tended to look to the main corridors of emigration, and hence outside the American South.

Images of Depression-Era Louisiana: The FSA Photographs of Ben Shahn, Russell Lee, and Marion Post Wolcott
ISBN: 9780807167953 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the 1930s, the U.S. government famously sent photographers across the country to document on film the need for federal assistance in rural areas. Dorothea Lange's well-known image Migrant Mother came from this effort, along with thousands of other photographs. Ben Shahn, Russell Lee, and Marion Post Wolcott contributed some of those other images, many equally compelling. As primary photographers for the Farm Security Administration (FSA) in the state of Louisiana, the three took more than 2,600 photographs, recording the modest homes, family gatherings, and working lives of citizens...

ISBN: 9780807160299 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A Depression-era comic masterpiece, E. P. O'Donnell's The Great Big Doorstep centers on the Crochets, a Cajun family who live in a ramshackle house between the levee and the Mississippi River. The Crochets dream of one day owning a stately plantation befitting the magnificent cypress doorstep they have salvaged from the river and proudly display outside their humble home.
The memorable characters in this novel have their own concerns: the patriarch, Commodo, is full of wild bravado as he fluctuates between scheming, laboring, and malingering; his wife reigns as the queen of retort, though...
