Life of Black Hawk, or Ma-Ka-Tai-Me-She-Kia-Kiak
ISBN: 9780143105398 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A rediscovered, defiant work of Native American literature, presented here on the 175th anniversary of its first publication
Upon its publication in 1833, this unflinching narrative by the vanquished Sauk leader Black Hawk was the first thoroughly adversarial account of frontier hostilities between white settlers and Native Americans. Black Hawk, a complex, contradictory figure, relates his life story and that of his people, who had been forced from western Illinois in what was known as the Black Hawk War. The first published account of a victim of the American war of... A rediscovered, defiant work of Native American literature, presented here on the 175th anniversary of its first publication

Poe and the Remapping of Antebellum Print Culture
ISBN: 9780807150269 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Edgar Allan Poe (1809--1849) has long occupied the position of literary outsider. Dismissed as unrepresentative of the main currents of antebellum culture, Poe commented incisively -- in fiction and nonfiction -- on nationalism, science, materialism, popular taste, and cultural ideology. Opposing the pressure to write nationalistic "American" tales or from a restricted New England perspective, he produced a body of work held in greater international esteem than that of any of his U.S. contemporaries. In Poe and the Remapping of Antebellum Print Culture, scholars explore Poe's... Edgar Allan Poe (1809--1849) has long occupied the position of literary outsider.

A Historical Guide to Edgar Allan Poe
ISBN: 9780195121490 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849), son of itinerant actors, holds a secure place in the firmament of history as America's first master of suspense. Displaying scant interest in native scenes or materials, Edgar Allan Poe seems the most un-American of American writers during the era of literary nationalism; yet he was at the same time a pragmatic magazinist, fully engaged in popular culture and intensely concerned with the "republic of letters" in the United States. This Historical Guide contains an introduction that considers the tensions between Poe's "otherworldly" settings and his...

Romancing the Shadow: Poe and Race
ISBN: 9780195137101 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Edgar Allan Poe's strength as a writer lay in fabricating fantisies in settings far removed from his own place and time. This dislocation renders the attitudes embedded in his fiction open to interpretation, and over the years some readers have found Poe to be virulently racist, while others found him morally conflicted, and still others detected a subversion of racism in his works' subtle sympathies for non-white characters. As a nineteenth-century Southerner, Poe was a deeply ambiguous figure, evading race issues while living among them, and traversing the North-South border with little...

Strange Nation: Literary Nationalism and Cultural Conflict in the Age of Poe
ISBN: 9780195393682 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 472 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. After the War of 1812, Americans belatedly realized that they lacked national identity. The subsequent campaign to articulate nationality transformed every facet of culture from architecture to painting, and in the realm of letters, literary jingoism embroiled American authors in the heated politics of nationalism. The age demanded stirring images of U.S. virtue, often achieved by contriving myths and obscuring brutalities. Between these sanitized narratives of the nation and U.S. social reality lay a grotesque discontinuity: vehement conflicts over slavery, Indian removal, immigration, and...

Imagining Paris: Exile, Writing, and American Identity
ISBN: 9780300061024 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this highly readable book, J. Gerald Kennedy explores the imaginative process of five expatriate Americans--Gertrude Stein, Ernest Hemingway, Henry Miller, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Djuna Barnes--by showing how the experience of living in Paris shaped their careers and literary works. In a sensitive and lucid manner, Kennedy discusses the inner map of Paris each of these authors reconstructed out of their various struggles to accommodate themselves to a complex, foreign scene; to construct an expatriate self; or to understand the contradictions of American identity. "The story of these five...

Romancing the Shadow: Poe and Race
ISBN: 9780195137118 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The nine essays gathered here pursue the provocative implications of Toni Morrison's claim that no early American writer was more important than Poe in shaping a concept of "American Africanism," an image of racialized blackness destined to haunt the Euro-American imagination. As contributors to this volume reveal, Poe's response to the "shadow" of blackness--like his participation in the cultural construction of whiteness--was both problematic and revealing. Born in Boston but raised mostly in Richmond, surrounded by the practices of slaveholding culture, Poe seems to have shared notions of...
