Darwin and Faulkner's Novels: Evolution and Southern Fiction
ISBN: 9781137362889 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 243 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Displaying a wide range of knowledge and interpretive skill, Darwin and Faulkner's Novels reexamines the fiction of the great twentieth century American author from the interdisciplinary perspective of sociobiology.

Phenomenal Difference: A Philosophy of Black British Art
ISBN: 9781781384176 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Phenomenal Difference grants new attention to contemporary black British art, exploring its critical and social significance through attention to embodied experience, affectivity, the senses and perception. Much before scholars in the arts and humanities took their recent 'ontological turn' toward the new materialism, black British art had begun to expose cultural criticism's overreliance on the concepts of textuality, representation, identity and difference. Illuminating that original field of aesthetics and creativity, this book shows how black British artworks themselves can become the...

Faulkner's Ethics: An Intense Struggle
ISBN: 9783030688745 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book offers the first comprehensive investigation of ethics in the canon of William Faulkner. As the fundamental framework for its analysis of Faulkner’s fiction, this study draws on The Methods of Ethics, the magnum opus of the utilitarian philosopher Henry Sidgwick.

It argues that Faulkner’s language is a moral medium that captures the ways in which people negotiate the ethical demands that life places on them. Tracing the contours of this...

Habitat, Human, and Holy: An Eco-Rhetorical Reading of the Gospel of Matthew
ISBN: 9781910928011 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Texts are rhetorical; they have an effect; they shape the mind and emotions of the readers who engage the text. Readers, in their turn, attend to the rhetoric of a text through the interpretative lens they bring to their reading of the text at the same time as they are being shaped by its rhetoric. Elaine Wainwrights eco-rhetorical reading of the Gospel of Matthew explores this interplay of rhetoric and perspective.
An ecological perspective or hermeneutic is relatively new within biblical studies. It continues to be shaped and formed. Lorraine Codes call to ecological thinking as a new...

Acceptable Words: Essays on the Poetry of Geoffrey Hill
ISBN: 9780719067556 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Geoffrey Hill has said that some great poetry 'recognises that words fail us'. These essays explore Hill's struggle over fifty years with the recalcitrance of language. This book seeks to show how all his work is marked by the quest for the right pitch of utterance whether it is sorrowing, angry, satiric or erotic. It shows how Hill's words are never lightly 'acceptable' but an ethical act, how he seeks out words he can stand by - words that are 'getting it right'. This book is the most comprehensive and up-to-date critical work on Geoffrey Hill so far, covering all his work up to 'Scenes...
