Looking through a microfilm roller at the papers of Jean Toomer, an African-American novelist of the 1920's Harlem Renaissance, I scrolled pass the first page of a handwritten copy of Georg I. Gurdjieff's ballet Struggle of the Magicians on the roller. Not even typewritten. I scrolled back to it." So begins the author's notes to the first of a four-volume collection of plays documenting the evolution of a self-taught amateur playwright from a know-nothing to a homespun veteran of 22...

Love Poetry and Songs from the Ancient Egyptians
ISBN: 9781514848517 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) During the reigns of Ramses II and his successors, from about 1300 BC to 1150 BC, a social class of well-educated secular royal scribes and temple craftsmen appeared in Ancient Egypt rivaling the traditional priesthood in cultural influence, if not power. In their hands a new genre of literature took shape: Secular love poetry depicting in hieratic script real flesh-and-blood men and women, expressing real emotions and speaking to one another with real, often erotic and tender human feelings for the first time. Unfortunately, this state of affairs was to last only as long as the reigns of...

Kipling and Orientalism (Routledge Revivals)
ISBN: 9781138799219 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. First published in 1986, this book sets Kipling firmly in the historical context not only of contemporary India but of prior Anglo-Indian writers about India. Despite his enthusiastic reception in England as 'revealer of the East', in India he seems to have been regarded as just one more Anglo-Indian writer. The author demonstrates the traditionalism of Kipling's use of the themes of Anglo-Indian fiction - themes such as the 'White Man's grave', domestic instability, frustration and loneliness. In particular, Kipling is shown to be writing in a strongly conservative idiom, concentrating on...
