Don't Look Now
ISBN: 9781911325482 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Nicolas Roeg's Don't Look Now (1973) has been called "a ghost story for adults." Certainly, in contrast to the more explicitly violent and bloodthirsty horror films of the 1970s, Don't Look Now seems of an entirely different order. Yet this supernaturally inflected tale of a child's accidental drowning, and her parents' desperate simultaneous recoil from her death and pursuit of her ghost, Don't Look Now is horrific at every turn. This book argues for it as a particular kind of horror film, one which depends utterly on the narrative of trauma--on the horror of unknowing,...

Elizabeth Bowen and the Writing of Trauma : The Ethics of Survival
ISBN: 9789042037991 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Elizabeth Bowen and the Writing of Trauma analyses the treatment of memory and the past in Bowen's writing through the lens of trauma theory. It draws on the theories of Jacques Derrida, Helene Cixous, Julia Kristeva, Sigmund Freud, and Cathy Caruth, to propose that Bowen's work is best understood through the psychological, narratological, and linguistic effects of trauma in her fiction. Bowen's writing complicates existing deconstructive and psychoanalytic models of trauma and literature, and testifies to the responsibility of survival and the ethics of bearing witness.

Memory and the Wars on Terror: Australian and British Perspectives
ISBN: 9783319569758 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 283 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This edited collection aims to respond to dominant perspectives on twenty-first-century war by exploring how the events of 9/11 and the subsequent Wars on Terror are represented and remembered outside of the US framework. Existing critical coverage ignores the meaning of these events for people, nations and cultures apparently peripheral to them but which have - as shown in this collection - been extraordinarily affected by the social, political and cultural changes these wars have wrought. Adopting a literary and cultural history approach, the book asks how these events resonate and continue...

Christos Tsiolkas: The Utopian Vision
ISBN: 9781604979787 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book is in the Cambria Australian Literature Series, headed by Dr. Susan Lever. More than two decades ago, Christos Tsiolkas's his first novel Loaded was published and he had achieved a cult following in the short-lived grunge fiction scene of Australian writing. The novel was quickly adapted as the film Head On (1998), directed by Ana Kokkinos, and starring popular young Greek actor, Alex Dimitriades; like the novel, it was well-received by critics, if not by mainstream literary and cinematic culture. For the next few years, Tsiolkas worked on Jump Cuts, an... This book is in the Cambria Australian Literature Series, headed by Dr. Susan Lever.

Elizabeth Bowen: Theory, Thought and Things
ISBN: 9781474458658 / Angielski / Miękka / 2021 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. From experiments in language and identity to innovations in the novel, the short story and life narratives, the contributors discuss the ways in which Bowen's work straddles, informs and defies the existing definitions of modernist and postmodernist literature which dominate twentieth-century writing. The eleven chapters present new scholarship on Bowen's inventiveness and unique writing style and its attachment to objects, covering topics such as queer adolescents, housekeeping, female fetishism, habit and new technologies such as the telephone.
