American Plays of the New Woman
ISBN: 9781566632997 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The battle of the sexes reached a near fever pitch in the early years of the twentieth century, in the debate over the "proper" role of women in a rapidly changing and increasingly industrialized society. The six plays that Keith Newlin has selected for this book nicely illustrate the conflicts of that time over such issues as the double standard, the advent of the "New Woman" and turn-of-the-century feminism, and the clash between a woman's career and conventional marriage. The plays are: William Vaughn Moody's The Great Divide (1906), Rachel Crothers's A Man's World (1910), Augustus...

ISBN: 9780195368932 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 536 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. After its heyday in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, naturalism, a genre that typically depicts human beings as the product of biological and environmental forces over which they have little control, was supplanted by modernism, a genre in which writers experimented with innovations in form and content. In the last decade, the movement is again attracting spirited scholarly debate. The Oxford Handbook of American Literary Naturalism takes stock of the best new research in the field through collecting twenty-eight original essays drawing upon recent scholarship in literary and...

Hamlin Garland: A Life
ISBN: 9780803233478 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 536 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In recognition of his achievements in literature, Hamlin Garland (1860-1940) received four honorary doctorates and a Pulitzer Prize. Keith Newlin traces the rise of this prairie farm boy with a half-formed ambition to write who then skyrocketed into international prominence before he was forty. His life is a story of ironic contradictions: the radical whose early achievement thrust him to the forefront of literary innovation but whose evolutionary aesthetic principles could not themselves adapt to changing conditions; the self-styled "veritist" whose credo demanded that he verify every fact...

A Theodore Dreiser Encyclopedia
ISBN: 9780313316807 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 456 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For a century, Theodore Dreiser has represented for many readers a rebellious modernism whose novels both critiqued the American dream and embodied a bleakly deterministic perception of life. His first novel, "Sister Carrie" (1900), was reluctantly published and then ignored by its publisher, who thought the book immoral. Another publisher withdrew his fifth novel, "The Genius" (1915), rather than face prosecution on obscenity charges. Dreiser did not enjoy widespread popularity and critical acclaim until his masterpiece, "An American Tragedy," appeared in 1925. This reference is an...
