Race in Modern Irish Literature and Culture
ISBN: 9780748638833 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For decades Ireland presented itself as the land of hospitality, until the 1990s, when the 'Celtic Tiger' exposed its racist underbelly. In Race in Modern Irish Literature and Culture, John Brannigan argues that race and racism have longer histories in the Irish state, histories which have often been exposed and critiqued by Irish writers and artists. He revisits the role of racial ideologies in the foundation and development of the state, offering original historical insights, and inspired new readings of literary and cultural works ranging from Ulysses to The Commitments.

Archipelagic Modernism: Literature in the Irish and British Isles, 1890-1970
ISBN: 9780748643356 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Offers a new archipelagic history of twentieth-century literature in Britain and Ireland
Archipelagic Modernism examines the anglophone literatures of the archipelago from 1890 to 1970 for what they tell us about changing identities, geographies, and ecologies. The book argues that these literatures constitute an important resource for how we might begin to think about alternative political geographies, and alternative practices of belonging to place and environment. From the height of the British Empire in 1890, to the increasing sense by 1970 of the imminent'break-up' of Britain,...

New Historicism and Cultural Materialism
ISBN: 9780333687802 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 249 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. New historicism and cultural materialism emerged in the early 1980s as prominent literary theories and came to represent a revival of interest in history and in historicising literature. Their proponents rejected both formalist criticism and earlier attempts to read literature in its historical context and defined new ways of thinking about literature in relation to history. This study explains the development of these theories and demonstrates both their uses and weaknesses as critical practices. The potential future direction for the theories is explored and the controversial debates about...
