Bedside Manner: Hospital and Health Care in Hong Kong
ISBN: 9789622017986 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Hong Kong the responsibility for building and operating hospitals used to be shared by the Government of Hong Kong and a number of charities, including religious orders, some with traditions dating back to the earliest times. Unfortunately this dual system of government and subvented hospitals was not integrated, leading to problems of coordination and management and resulting in gaps and duplication in services, inefficient and ineffective use of resources, as well as low staff morale. The problems persisted against a background of significant population growth, rising community...

The Politics of Postmodernism
ISBN: 9780415280167 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Postmodernism has become so familiar a term that it is easy to forget how complex, challenging and politically charged postmodern theory can be. We are even sometimes told that postmodernism is over, or that it never existed. This text remains a clear and incisive introduction to the field. Perhaps more importantly, it is a discussion of why postmodernism matters. Working through the issue of representation, in art forms from fiction to photography, Linda Hutcheon sets out postmodernism's highly political challenge to the dominant ideologies of the western world. A new epilogue traces the...

Opera: The Art of Dying
ISBN: 9780674335615 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 239 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Our modern narratives of science and technology can only go so far in teaching us about the death that we must all finally face. Can an act of the imagination, in the form of opera, take us the rest of the way? Might opera, an art form steeped in death, teach us how to die, as this provocative work suggests? In "Opera: The Art of Dying" a physician and a literary theorist bring together scientific and humanistic perspectives on the lessons on living and dying that this extravagant and seemingly artificial art imparts. Contrasting the experience of mortality in opera to that in... Our modern narratives of science and technology can only go so far in teaching us about the death that we must all finally face.

Four Last Songs: Aging and Creativity in Verdi, Strauss, Messiaen, and Britten
ISBN: 9780226420684 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Aging and creativity can seem a particularly fraught relationship for artists, who often face age-related difficulties as their audience's expectations are at a peak. In Four Last Songs, Linda and Michael Hutcheon explore this issue via the late works of some of the world's greatest composers. Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901), Richard Strauss (1864-1949), Olivier Messiaen (1908-92), and Benjamin Britten (1913-76) all wrote operas late in life, pieces that reveal unique responses to the challenges of growing older. Verdi's Falstaff, his only comedic success, combated Richard...

Narcissistic Narrative: The Metafictional Paradox
ISBN: 9781554585021 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Linda Hutcheon, in this original study, examines the modes, forms and techniques of narcissistic fiction, that is, fiction which includes within itself some sort of commentary on its own narrative and/or linguistic nature. Her analysis is further extended to discuss the implications of such a development for both the theory of the novel and reading theory. Having placed this phenomenon in its historical context Linda Hutcheon uses the insights of various reader-response theories to explore the "paradox" created by metafiction: the reader is, at the same time, co-creator of the...

Formalism and the Freudian Aesthetic: The Example of Charles Mauron
ISBN: 9780521027953 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This study has a double focus: in the first place, it seeks to chart the parallel re-evaluation of both formalism and psychology in twentieth-century literary theory by using the work and career of the French literary critic, Charles Mauron (1899 1966) as a scaffolding. Using a structure of biography and literary history, it investigates Mauron's rather odd position, both inside and outside two different critical contexts, the French and the English, a position that makes his work a particularly revealing reflection of the diverse critical trends and tensions of our age. The second focus of...
