The Gothic Text
ISBN: 9780804739122 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Romantic gothic fiction is not exciting. Gothic novels are not ghost stories. Gothic novels are not women's writing."
Opening with these three theses, "The Gothic Text" undertakes a fresh approach to a much-studied mode. Marshall Brown combines the teleological approach to literary history developed in his "Preromanticism" with a European perspective on the one truly international literary form of its era. New insights into literary history and the history of ideas provide a framework for innovative close readingsof Horace Walpole's "The Castle of Otranto," Ann Radcliffe's "The Italian,"...

Turning Points: Essays in the History of Cultural Expressions
ISBN: 9780804727082 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Through a combination of general reflections, studies of important critics, and both comprehensive and specific analyses of cultural change in literature, music, art, and philosophy, Turning Points demonstrates the role of style and form in promoting and shaping cultural development. The book proposes that works do not timelessly abstract, retrospectively reflect, or passively express; instead, they promote and shape historical change. Moving rather than consolidating, cultural expressions advance cultures not through what they say (musical works, in particular, say nothing) but...

Periodization: Cutting Up the Past
ISBN: 9780822365198 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 167 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Why do we need to divide time into periods, and how do these divisions of time contribute to or impede our understanding? Unlike other studies of periodization that limit discussions to whether particular period definitions are true and accurate, Periodization: Cutting Up the Past delves into our wariness of such categorizing and the impulse to categorize historical time in the first place. This special issue of MLQ covers examples of periodization from the early modern to the present, including a range from the individual year to the longue duree and incorporates a variety of methods from...

Preromanticism
ISBN: 9780804722117 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 516 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Using an outmoded term in an entirely new way, Preromanticism seeks the common ground of British literature from 1740 to 1798, not in the foreshadowing of Romanticism but in terms of incomplete discoveries and in impediments to expression that Romanticism was to lift. This fresh conceptualization of the second half of the 18th century, touching on French and German as well as British literature, aims to invigorate the imagination of the reader by audacious textual conjunctions (Rasselas and Tristram Shandy, She Stoops to Conquer and An Evening Walk), through its theoretical authority, and its...

Reading for Form
ISBN: 9780295986487 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Reflecting varieties of theory and practice in both verse and prose from the Middle Ages to the twenty-first century, these essays by many of America's leading literary scholars call for a reinvigorated formalism that can enrich literary studies, open productive routes of commerce with cultural studies, and propel cultural theory out of its thematic ruts. This book reprints Modern Language Quarterly's highly acclaimed special issue Reading for Form, along with new essays by Marjorie Perloff, D. Vance Smith, and Susan Stewart, and a revised introduction by Susan Wolfson....

The Raincloud of Knowable Things: A Practical Guide to Transpersonal Psychology: Workshops: History: Method
ISBN: 9781906289027 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This book presents rich source material; it makes no claim to being academic, though referring whenever possible to works available to the authors (the bibliography more or less stops with Ian Gordon-Brown's death in 1996). However, those interested in Transpersonal Psychology as an academic discipline will be able to avail themselves of the wealth of original material here and take it into the world of comparative study. Its origins could be traced back way beyond Jung, Frankl, Maslow and Assagioli to Far Eastern and Aboriginal sources, to Greek and later Western teaching, to other great...

Preromanticism
ISBN: 9780804715614 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 516 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Preromanticism seeks the common ground of British literature from 1740 to 1798 not in the foreshadowing of Romanticism but in incomplete discoveries and in impediments to expression that Romanticism was to lift. Brown analyses several of the period's major figures - Gray, Collins, Young, Cowper, Goldsmith, Sheridan, Beaumarchais, Schiller, and Stern, touching on French and German as well as British literature. This broadly comparative juxtaposition of philosophical and literary works often yields startling and compelling insights.
