The Visual Arts, Pictorialism, and the Novel: James, Lawrence, and Woolf
ISBN: 9780691639420 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Marianna Torgovnick maintains that it is worthwhile to think about novels in terms of the visual arts--in part because major novelists like James, Lawrence, and Woolf did so, and did so fruitfully, as they were influenced by their perceptions of artistic movements. Originally published in 1985. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in...

The War Complex: World War II in Our Time
ISBN: 9780226808567 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Marianna Torgovnick here argues that we have lived, since the end of World War II, under the power of a war complex a set of repressed ideas and impulses that stems from our unresolved attitudes toward the technological acceleration of mass death. This complex has led to gaps and hesitations in public discourse about atrocities committed during the war itself. And it remains an enduring wartime consciousness, one most recently animated on September 11.
Showing how different events from World War II became prominent in American cultural memory while others went forgotten or remain hidden... Marianna Torgovnick here argues that we have lived, since the end of World War II, under the power of a war complex a set of repressed ideas and impul...

The War Complex: World War II in Our Time
ISBN: 9780226808550 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The recent dedication of the World War II memorial and the sixtieth-anniversary commemoration of D-Day remind us of the hold that World War II still has over America's sense of itself. But the selective process of memory has radically shaped our picture of the conflict. Why else, for instance, was a 1995 Smithsonian exhibition on Hiroshima that was to include photographs of the first atomic bomb victims, along with their testimonials, considered so controversial? And why do we so readily remember the civilian bombings of Britain but not those of Dresden, Hamburg, and Tokyo?
Marianna... The recent dedication of the World War II memorial and the sixtieth-anniversary commemoration of D-Day remind us of the hold that World War II still h...

ISBN: 9780822314721 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Out of the core of experience, these essays began as obsessions. Whether founded in some strongly lived moment, deeply held conviction, long-term interest, or persistent and unanswered question, these essays reveal the writer's voice--personal, often passionate, full of conviction, certainly unmistakable.

Eloquent Obsessions presents cultural criticism at its thoughtful and writerly...

Crossing Ocean Parkway
ISBN: 9780226808307 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 187 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Growing up an Italian-American in the Bensonhurst neighborhood of New York city, Marianna De Marco longed for college, culture, and upward mobility. Her daydreams circled around WASP (White Anglo Saxon Protestant) heroes on television like Robin Hood and the Cartwright family but in Brooklyn she never encountered any. So she associated moving up with Ocean Parkway, a street that divides the working-class Italian neighborhood where she was born from the middle-class Jewish neighborhood into which she married. This book is Torgovnick's unflinching account of crossing cultural boundaries in...
