How Novels Think: The Limits of Individualism from 1719-1900
ISBN: 9780231130585 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Nancy Armstrong argues that the history of the novel and the history of the modern individual are, quite literally, one and the same. She suggests that certain works of fiction created a subject, one displaying wit, will, or energy capable of shifting the social order to grant the exceptional person a place commensurate with his or her individual worth. Once the novel had created this figure, readers understood themselves in terms of a narrative that produced a self-governing subject. In the decades following the revolutions in British North America and France, the major novelists...

Fiction in the Age of Photography: The Legacy of British Realism
ISBN: 9780674008014 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Victorians were fascinated with how accurately photography could copy people, the places they inhabited, and the objects surrounding them. Much more important, however, is the way in which Victorian people, places, and things came to resemble photographs. In this provocative study of British realism, Nancy Armstrong explains how fiction entered into a relationship with the new popular art of photography that transformed the world into a picture. By the 1860s, to know virtually anyone or anything was to understand how to place him, her, or it in that world on the basis of characteristics that...

Desire and Domestic Fiction: A Political History of the Novel
ISBN: 9780195061604 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Desire and Domestic Fiction argues that far from being removed from historical events, novels by writers from Richardson to Woolf were themselves agents of the rise of the middle class. Drawing on texts that range from 18th-century female conduct books and contract theory to modern psychoanalytic case histories and theories of reading, Armstrong shows that the emergence of a particular form of female subjectivity capable of reigning over the household paved the way for the establishment of institutions which today are accepted centers of political power. Neither passive subjects nor...

The Ideology of Conduct (Routledge Revivals): Essays in Literature and the History of Sexuality
ISBN: 9781138015456 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In "The Ideology of Conduct," first published in 1987, " "scholars from various fields, from the medieval period to the present day, discuss literature in which the sole purpose is to instruct women in how to make themselves desirable. This collection investigates how middle-class writers who had long emulated the behaviour of the aristocracy began to criticise that behaviour by formulating an alternative object of desire. They did so without appearing to breed political controversy because it seemed to concern only the female. But writing for and about women in fact became a powerful...

The Violence of Representation (Routledge Revivals): Literature and the History of Violence
ISBN: 9781138015425 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. First published in 1989, this collection of essays brings into focus the history of a specific form of violence that of representation. The contributors identify representations of self and other that empower a particular class, gender, nation, or race, constructing a history of the west as the history of changing modes of subjugation. The essays bring together a wide range of literary and historical work to show how writing became an increasingly important mode of domination during the modern period as ruling ideas became a form of violence in their own right.

The Disavowed Community
ISBN: 9780823273843 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Over thirty years after Maurice Blanchot writes The Unavowable Community (1983)--a book that offered a critical response to an early essay by Jean-Luc Nancy on "the inoperative community"--Nancy responds in turn with The Disavowed Community. Stemming from Jean-Christophe Bailly's initial proposal to think community in terms of "number" or the "numerous," and unfolding as a close reading of Blanchot's text, Nancy's new book addresses a range of themes and motifs that mark both his proximity to and distance from Blanchot's thinking, from Bataille's "community of lovers" to the relation between...

Intoxication
ISBN: 9780823267736 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 72 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. From Plato's Symposium to Hegel's truth as a "Bacchanalian revel," from the Bacchae of Euripedes to Nietzsche, philosophy holds a deeply ambivalent relation to the pleasures of intoxication. At the same time, from Baudelaire to Lowry, from Proust to Dostoyevsky, literature and poetry are also haunted by scenes of intoxication, as if philosophy and literature share a theme that announces and navigates their proximities and differences. For Nancy, intoxication constitutes an excess that both fascinates and questions philosophy's sober ambitions for appropriate forms of philosophical behavior...

The Pleasure in Drawing
ISBN: 9780823250936 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Originally written for an exhibition Jean-Luc Nancy curated at the Museum of Fine Arts in Lyon in 2007, this book addresses the medium of drawing in light of the question of form--of form in its formation, as a formative force, as a birth to form. In this sense, drawing opens less toward its achievement, intention, and accomplishment than toward a finality without end and the infinite renewal of ends, toward lines of sense marked by tracings, suspensions, and permanent interruptions. Recalling that drawing and design were once used interchangeably, Nancy notes that drawing designates a design...
