Reproductions of Reproduction
ISBN: 9780415912433 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Reproductions of Reproduction is about the loss of the paternal metaphor and how the ensuing scramble to relocate it has set off a series of representational crises. Examining the sudden popularity of such figures as cyborgs, bodybuilders, and vampires; shifts in legislation about abortion, paternity and copyright; the transition to a digital-based society; the emergence of lesbian and gay studies; the growing infatuation with hyper-realistic patterns in television, this book argues that each of these manifestations represents an attempt to resituate...

The Poetics of DNA
ISBN: 9780816649983 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How has DNA come to be seen as a cosmic truth, representative of all life, potential for all cures, repository for all identity, and end to all stories? In The Poetics of DNA, Judith Roof examines the rise of this powerful symbol and the implications of its ascendancy for the ways we think--about ourselves, about one another, and about the universe.
Descriptions of DNA, Roof argues, have distorted ideas and transformed nucleic acid into the answer to all questions of life. This hyperbolized notion of DNA, inevitably confused or conflated with the "gene," has become a...

Rosario Aguilar (Nicaragua): Acercamientos Criticos
ISBN: 9781942369219 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 548 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Rosario Aguilar (Nicaragua, 1938) es pionera en la exploracion 1 de temas tabu soslayados en la narrativa latinoamericana. Sus obras, unanimemente alabadas por los criticos mas agudos de su pais -Carlos Aleman Ocampo, Francisco Arellano Oviedo, Jorge Eduardo Arellano, Nydia Palacios Vivas2, Isolda Rodriguez Rosales, Nicasio Urbina, Julio Valle-Castillo-, sufren el mal endemico a la literatura centroamericana: reducida distribucion dentro de las fronteras nacionales y casi nula fuera de ellas. Alguna resonancia ha tenido su narrativa en el pais vecino de Costa Rica entre criticos como Seidy...

Come as You Are: Sexuality and Narrative
ISBN: 9780231104364 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Roof's ambitious, wide-ranging book links narrative theory, theories of sexuality, and gay and lesbian theory to explore the place of homosexuality, and specifically the lesbian, in the tradition of western narrative. According to Freud, perversions are the necessary obstacles in a heroic plot of normal heterosexual development; and homosexuality is the nineteenth century's classic case of perversion. Roof builds on Freud to illustrate that a structural understanding of narrative enforces a heterosexual paradigm, a sense of meaning that provides psychological stability for the reader. Looking...

A Lure of Knowledge: Lesbian Sexuality and Theory
ISBN: 9780231074872 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 285 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Lesbianism in literature has been dealt with rather indirectly in the past. Editors have led readers to the "artistry" of a work containing lesbianism, emphasizing instead the literary history and historical context of the work rather than the representations of lesbianism. The editor for Colette's The Pure and the Impure, for instance, affirms that Colette has a knowledge of a "strange sisterhood," but assures readers she has never strayed from the "normal." In the groundbreaking A Lure of Knowledge, Judith Roof demonstrates that representations of lesbian sexuality...

What Gender Is, What Gender Does
ISBN: 9780816698585 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What Gender Is, What Gender Does provides a forceful new paradigm for considering genders. With depth and insight, Judith Roof argues that genders are much more than binary. And they are constantly morphing: they are conscious and unconscious, simultaneously conventional and idiosyncratic. At any moment, more than one gender dynamic is at work in any individual. Roof's interpretation of genders isn't content with either biological duality or endlessly open performativity, and what results is a nuanced and surprising representation of gender--an account that captures the...

Religion and Public Life in the Pacific Region: Fluid Identities
ISBN: 9780759106390 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "Pretty much like the rest of the country, only more so." This quip from Wallace Stegner well-represents the Pacific region's religious culture. California, Nevada, and Hawaii emerged more recently, more quickly and with more diversity and fluidity than the other United States. Although influenced by Mexican Catholicism, Native Traditions, Asian Religions, and Euro-American Christianity, no religious tradition dominates, and a secular ethos usually reigns. But this very religious indifference makes California and the rest of the region open to all sorts of missionary movements and religious...

Spiritual Marketplace: Baby Boomers and the Remaking of American Religion
ISBN: 9780691089966 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In large chain bookstores the "religion" section is gone and in its place is an expanding number of topics including angels, Sufism, journey, recovery, meditation, magic, inspiration, Judaica, astrology, gurus, Bible, prophesy, evangelicalism, Mary, Buddhism, Catholicism, and esoterica. As Wade Clark Roof notes, such changes over the last two decades reflect a shift away from religion as traditionally understood to more diverse and creative approaches. But what does this splintering of the religious perspective say about Americans? Have we become more interested in spiritual concerns or...
