The Pound Era
ISBN: 9780520024274 / Angielski / Miękka / 1973 / 624 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) "Hugh Kenner'sThe Pound Eracould as well be known as the Kenner era, for there is no critic who has more firmly established his claim to valuable literary property than has Kenner to the first three decades of the 20th century in England. Author of pervious studies of Joyce, T.S. Eliot, Wyndham Lewis and Pound (to name a few), Kenner bestrides modern literature if not like a colossus then at least a presence of formidable proportions. A new book by him is certainly an event....A demanding, enticing book that glitters at the same time it antagonizes...."The Pound Erapresents us...

The Elsewhere Community
ISBN: 9780195132977 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 163 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) "'All humans, by their nature, ' said Aristotle, 'desire to know.' A special and unparalleled way to know is to simply go where you've never been before. And the key to this quest for knowledge is 'elsewhere.'"
So begins The Elsewhere Community by acclaimed literary critic Hugh Kenner, author of The Pound Era, and himself a living archive of modernism in twentieth-century literature. Kenner traces the quest for elsewhere as it manifests itself in various modes of "travel," from the eighteenth century English tradition of a Grand Tour to the continent, to literary meetings-of-the-mind...

Ulysses
ISBN: 9783518111048 / Niemiecki / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. "Der 1922 erschienene »Ulysses« von James Joyce ist unbestritten das Meisterwerk der literarischen Moderne dieses Jahrhunderts. Unbestritten ist aber auch, daß dieses Buch dem Verständnis des Lesers große Widerstände entgegensetzt. Diese Schwierigkeiten waren mit der Grund dafür, daß die Anzahl der Publikationen über »Ulysses« unübersehbar geworden ist: es gibt Untersuchungen zur Entstehungsgeschichte, zur Symbolik, zum Verhältnis Joyce-Homer usw. Von all diesen Versuchen unterscheidet sich die Darstellung Hugh Kenners grundlegend; ihr Ausgangspunkt ist die Beobachtung, daß...

The Mechanic Muse
ISBN: 9780195054231 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. With his customary wit and erudition, one of America's most celebrated and distinguished critics examines the response of literary Modernism to environmental changes caused by technology.
Focusing on Eliot, Pound, Joyce, and Beckett, Hugh Kenner explores how inventions as various as the linotype, the typewriter, the subway, and the computer altered the way these writers viewed and depicted the world. Whether discussing Joyce's acute awareness of the nuances of typesetting or Beckett's experiments with a "proto-computer-language," Kenner consistently approaches the works of these authors...

Ulysses
ISBN: 9780801833847 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. With characteristic flair, Kenner explores the ways Joyce teaches us to read his novel as Joyce taught himself to write it: moving from the simple to the complex, from the familiar to the strange and new, from the norms of the nineteenth-century novel to the open forms of modernism.

Gnomon: Essays on Contemporary Literature
ISBN: 9781564784308 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The gnomon is the part of a sundial that casts its shadow, and Gnomon: Essays on Contemporary Literature represents, in its author s words, a report on ten years watching of shadows. Collecting the earliest short essays and reviews by a man who was arguably the greatest English-language critic-scholar of the twentieth century, Gnomon not only provides valuable, entertaining, and often scabrous insights into the workings of literature, as well as the books of such modern giants as William Carlos Williams, Ford Madox Ford, Wyndham Lewis, and Ezra Pound, but is itself a cross-section of the...

Historical Fictions
ISBN: 9780820317748 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In "Historical Fictions" Hugh Kenner applies his extraordinarily nimble mind and unrivaled style to the alchemy of speech turning into language, language becoming art, and art finally settling down as culture. A variety of literary topics are addressed in forty-three lively, often humorous, and wonderfully informative essays. With his trenchant, famously entertaining touch, Kenner explores the role of counting in literature (Joyce and St. Augustine shared a preference for the number eleven); the extravagant efforts through the ages to preserve the "Iliad" and the "Odyssey" (focusing on...

The Poetry of Ezra Pound
ISBN: 9780803277564 / Angielski / Miękka / 1985 / 342 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This pioneering study did much to rehabilitate Erza Pound's reputation after a long period of critical hostility and neglect. Published in 1951, it was the first comprehensive examination of the Cantos and other major works that would strongly influence the course of contemporary poetry. Hugh Kenner, perhaps the preeminent authority on Pound, has written a retrospective preface for the reissue of his famous book, long out of print. James Laughlin, in his foreword, writes that The Poetry of Erza Pound "turned the tide" not only for its subject but also for his company, New Directions, which...
