The Angler's Hours
ISBN: 9781443759663 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. INTRODUCTORY THERE are several reasons why this preface is not more apologetic than it is. Authors have for so many centuries been in such transports of glad apology, and have displayed so curious an ingenuity in expressing that diffident but hopeful emotion that, search as I will, I can happen on no set of phrases that looks original-even to myself. Yet I willingly concede the rightness of the apologetic mood in an author, and especialIy in this author, and I have large sympathy-with those critics who will be unable to see the necessity for this volume. They will be unable to see it for a...

This important book uses close readings of sixteen key French autobiographers to provide a major contribution to theoretical discussions of the genre.

The Happy Hypocrite (Colour Illustrated Edition)
ISBN: 9780987367808 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. From its magnificent first sentence, "None, it is said, of all who revelled with the Regent, was half so wicked as Lord George Hell..." The Happy Hypocrite exerts a hypnotizing charm. Sir Max Beerbohm's 'fairy tale for tired men' is one of the pinnacles of 1890s chic and elegance. His famously rich style, laced with equal parts of tenderness and severity, serves up a story of love, and, more importantly, what we will do for it. George Hell's life as a Regency buck is turned upside down when Jenny Mere, a dancer, arrives in his life. It only remains for him to live up to the pure expectations...

Subjectivity in Troubadour Poetry
ISBN: 9780521031745 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The medieval troubadours of the South of France profoundly influenced European literature for many centuries. This book is the first full-length study of the first-person subject position adopted by many of them in its relation to language and society. Using modern theoretical approaches, Sarah Kay discusses to what extent this first person is a "self" or "character," and how far it is self-determining. Kay draws on a wide range of troubadour texts, providing many close readings and translating all medieval quotations into English. Her book will be of interest both to scholars of medieval...

Gender and Genre in Medieval French Literature
ISBN: 9780521022606 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This wide-ranging study explores the ideological framework of genre in Old French and Occitan literature by charting the relationship between ideology and gender in five key genres: the chansons de geste, courtly romance, the Occitan canso, hagiography and the fabliaux. Simon Gaunt offers new readings of canonical Old French and medieval Occitan texts such as the Chanson de Roland, Chré tien de Troyes' Chevalier de la charrete, and lyrics by Bernart de Ventadorn. In addition, he considers many less well-known works and less familiar genres such as hagiography and the fabliaux. Drawing on...

Sartre: Literature and Theory
ISBN: 9780521338783 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this major study Rhiannon Goldthorpe takes up the challenge of Sartre's diversity in an original and provocative way. Her detailed and comprehensive exploration of the relationship between the theoretical and literary works pays due attention to their characteristic complexity. The discussion of La Nausee, Les Mouches, Huis clos, Les Mains sales and Les Sequestres e'Altona, for example, does not present these literary texts as mere 'illustrations' of Sartre's theories of consciousness, imagination and emotion, but as subtle philosophical and linguistic investigations in their own right. In...

In the face of the destructive possibilities of resurgent nationalisms, unyielding ethnicities and fundamentalist religious affinities, there is hardly a more urgent task than understanding how humans can learn to live alongside one another. This fascinating book shows how people from various societies learn to live with social diversity and cultural difference, and considers how the concepts of identity formation, diaspora and creolization shed light on the processes and geographies of encounter.
Robin Cohen and Olivia Sheringham reveal how early historical encounters created... In the face of the destructive possibilities of resurgent nationalisms, unyielding ethnicities and fundamentalist religious affinities, there is hardl...
