The Inhuman Race: The Racial Grotesque in American Literature and Culture
ISBN: 9780231103374 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Reconstructs a dialogue between objectifiers (American Puritans, slaveowners) and objectifieds (Native Americans, slaves) by arguing that the literature of race in antebellum America is the continuing story of an encounter with the grotesque.
