Stand-Up Comedy in Theory, Or, Abjection in America
ISBN: 9780822325468 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Stand-Up Comedy in Theory, or, Abjection in America is the first study of stand-up comedy as a form of art. John Limon appreciates and analyzes the specific practice of stand-up itself, moving beyond theories of the joke, of the comic, and of comedy in general to read stand-up through the lens of literary and cultural theory. Limon argues that stand-up is an artform best defined by its fascination with the abject, Julia Kristeva's term for those aspects of oneself that are obnoxious to one's sense of identity but that are nevertheless--like blood, feces, or urine--impossible to...

Death's Following: Mediocrity, Dirtiness, Adulthood, Literature
ISBN: 9780823242795 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Almost all twentieth-century philosophy stresses the immanence of death in human life--as drive (Freud), as the context of Being (Heidegger), as the essence of our defining ethics (Levinas), or as language (de Man, Blanchot). In Death's Following, John Limon makes use of literary analysis (of Sebald, Bernhard, and Stoppard), cultural analysis, and autobiography to argue that death is best conceived as always transcendentally beyond ourselves, neither immanent nor imminent. Adapting Kierkegaard's variations on the theme of Abraham's near-sacrifice of Isaac while refocusing the emphasis onto...

Writing After War: American War Fiction from Realism to Postmodernism
ISBN: 9780195087598 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Writing After War, John Limon develops a theory of the relationship of war in general to literature in general, in order to make sense of American literary history in particular. Applying the work of war theorists Carl von Clausewitz and Elaine Scarry, John Limon argues that The Iliad inaugurates Western literature on the failure of war to be duel-like, to have a beautiful form. War's failure is literature's justification. American literary history is demarcated by wars, as if literary epochs, like the history of literature itself, required bloodshed to commence. But...

The Place of Fiction in the Time of Science: A Disciplinary History of American Writing
ISBN: 9780521352512 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this major new book John Limon examines the various ways American authors have written in an age increasingly dominated by science. He focuses in particular on Charles Brockden Brown, Edgar Allen Poe, and Nathaniel Hawthorne--three highly articulate and alarmed witnesses to the great crisis in modern intellectual history, the professionalization of science. It was, Limon argues, especially difficult for American writers to face this crisis because, since America had been born in an age of expanding scientific consciousness and thus no appeal could be made to traditional, pre-scientific...
