The Language of Allegory: Defining the Genre
ISBN: 9780801480515 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Quilligan has a number of stimulating new insights into the nature of allegory both medieval and modern. Much of her discussion focuses on The Faerie Queen and Piers Plowman, but she does not neglect Hawthorne and Melville, while Nabokov and Pynchon receive two particularly astute readings. Along with valuable literary criticism, this book gives us an idea of a whole new revival of the theory of allegory." Virginia Quarterly Review"

ISBN: 9780801497889 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The first professional female writer, Christine de Pizan (1363-1431) was widowed at age twenty-five and supported herself and her family by enlisting powerful patrons for her poetry. Her Livre de la Cite des Dames (1405) is the earliest European work on women's history by a woman.

In this generously illustrated book, Maureen Quilligan provides a persuasive and penetrating interpretation of the Cite."

Incest and Agency in Elizabeth's England
ISBN: 9780812219050 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Maureen Quilligan explores the remarkable presence in the Renaissance of what she calls "incest schemes" in the books of a small number of influential women who claimed an active female authority by writing in high canonical genres and who, even more transgressively for the time, sought publication in print. It is no accident for Quilligan that the first printed work of Elizabeth I was a translation done at age eleven of a poem by Marguerite de Navarre, in which the notion of "holy" incest is the prevailing trope. Nor is it coincidental that Mary Wroth, author of the first sonnet cycle...

Rereading the Black Legend: The Discourses of Religious and Racial Difference in the Renaissance Empires
ISBN: 9780226307220 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The phrase The Black Legend was coined in 1912 by a Spanish journalist in protest of the characterization of Spain by other Europeans as a backward country defined by ignorance, superstition, and religious fanaticism, whose history could never recover from the black mark of its violent conquest of the Americas. Challenging this stereotype, "Rereading the Black Legend" contextualizes Spain s uniquely tarnished reputation by exposing the colonial efforts of other nations whose interests were served by propagating the Black Legend.
A distinguished group of contributors here examine early... The phrase The Black Legend was coined in 1912 by a Spanish journalist in protest of the characterization of Spain by other Europeans as a backward co...
