In Defence of Rhetoric
ISBN: 9780198117919 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 528 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A spirited effort to restore the importance of rhetoric, this book examines its early development in the classical era, its triumph during the Renaissance, and its subsequent decline. While acknowledging rhetoric's general loss of prestige, the author asserts its value in modern times as an indispensable vehicle for style and thought in the work of Joyce, Orwell, Jarrell, and others, and concludes by surveying rhetoric's fragmentation and misapplication in the current critical theories of such thinkers as Jakobson and de Man.

My Pen and My Soul Have Ever Gone Together: Thomas Paine and the American Revolution
ISBN: 9780415996457 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The first true intellectual biography of Thomas Paine, this book establishes the origins of his beliefs and their influence on his activism. For the past century, scholars have been studying Paine in piecemeal fashion; studies of limited scope focused on the minutiae of Paine's life and career, but no clear portrait had existed to know how the pieces fitted together. This is the complete picture. Who he was, what he believed, why he believed, and how his beliefs and personal history are reflected in his political activism - not just in the American Revolution, but also the French Revolution.

ISBN: 9780199269167 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 576 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Through an examination of the processes of collaboration and the methods used in authorship studies since the early nineteenth century, Brian Vickers identifies a coherent tradition in attribution work on Shakespeare.
