Spartacus in the Television Arena: Essays on the Starz Series
ISBN: 9780786498017 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Spartacus, the Thracian gladiator turned rebel leader, endures as a near-mythic hero who fought for the oppressed against a Roman oligarchy built on the backs of slave labor. The image of Spartacus as a noble if doomed avenger is familiar and his story has been retold through history as a cautionary tale about social injustice.
The television series Spartacus takes a different view, with a violent depiction of the man and his times and a focus on the archetype of the gladiator--powerful, courageous and righteous. This collection of new essays studies the series as an exploration of...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Few movie genres have highlighted the male body more effectively than the "sword-and-sandal" film, where the rippling torso and the bulging muscle are displayed for all to appreciate.

Each of these essays examines the issues of masculinity and utility addressed in the sword-and-sandal genre. The contributors offer insights on a film form...

ISBN: 9780786460335 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Much has been written about the girl sleuth in fiction, a feminist figure who embodies all the potential wit, drive and zest of girlhood.

This collection of twelve essays examines the boy detective and his genre from a wide variety of critical perspectives and address issues involving these young characters who stand on the cusp of manhood and boyhood, heirs to the patriarchy yet still concerned with first crushes and soda shop romances. Series explored include the Hardy Boys,...

Edward II and a Literature of Same-Sex Love: The Gay King in Fiction, 1590-1640
ISBN: 9781498534581 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The narrative re-tellings of the life, reign, and death of the English King Edward II (reigned 1307-1327) present a unique opportunity for scholars of sexuality in the early modern era. This is because the works of authors like Christopher Marlowe, Michael Drayton, Sir Francis Hubert, Elizabeth Cary, and Richard Niccols were all inspired by the public, cultural memory fashioned from Edward's same-sex love affair with Piers Gaveston. As such, each of them presents a particular representation of and a specific discourse about male-male sexual relations in the Renaissance. In other words, what...
