Let me take you down the thin cobblestoned streets of the Belgian border town of Bouillon. Let me take you down the alleys that lead into its past. To a town peopled with eccentrics, full of charm, menace and wonder. To the days before television, to Marie Bodard's sweetshop, to the Nazi occupation and unexpected collaborators.

Gustavus Flaubertus Bourgeoisophobus: Flaubert and the Bourgeois Mentality
ISBN: 9783039103089 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. It is well known that Flaubert harboured an obsessive hatred of the bourgeois and his mentality which erupts constantly and explosively in his correspondence, informs large parts of the works set in his own time, Madame Bovary, L Education sentimentale, Un C ur simple and Bouvard et Pecuchet and even overflows into Salammbo and his theatrical experiments. Since most of his thought and writing is so visibly and vitally affected by this obsession, it seems valuable to investigate its origins, its development and its significance for his art. That is the...

European Symbolism: In Search of Myth (1860-1910)
ISBN: 9783039115310 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This first comparative study of the Symbolist use of myth in France, Germany, and Russia closely examines a selected range of poetic and pictorial works created between c. 1860 and 1910. The focus of the discussion is on a constellation of five artists, linked by a complex network of influences: Gustave Moreau, Jose-Maria de Heredia, and Jean Moreas (France); Stefan George (Germany); and Valerii Bryusov (Russia). By analysing myth in painting and poetry, the book gives a new insight into the significance of heroic and aesthetic ideals in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century European...

Chateaubriand: The Paradox of Change
ISBN: 9783034318457 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 259 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This reassessment of Chateaubriand s literary and political achievements, offered as an intellectual biography of the writer, is centred on the concept of change and Chateaubriand s emotional suspicion of change, arising both from mistrust of his own inconstancy and from the personal and collective suffering of the French Revolution. His aversion to change spread beyond politics to religion and literature, but conflicted with his intellectual fascination with historic change in all three areas. The paradox of his fluctuating attitude to change allows a challenge to traditional views of...

Au Seuil de la Modernité Proust, Literature and the Arts: Essays in Memory of Richard Bales
ISBN: 9783039118915 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This volume of essays, which is dedicated to the late Richard Bales, one of the doyens of Proust studies, considers Proust s pivotal role at the threshold of modernity, between nineteenth- and twentieth-century forms of writing and thinking, between the Belle Epoque and the First World War, between tradition and innovation. More than just a temporal concept, this threshold is theorized in the volume as a liminal space where borders (geographical, artistic, personal) dissolve, where greater possibilities for artistic dialogue emerge, and where unexpected encounters (between artists, genres and...

Książka dostępna od: 14-02-2025 The relationship between the made and the found is one of the most fertile tensions in modern French literature. This collection of critical and creative writing explores how the interplay between the given and the imagined, the real and the virtual, the world as we find it and the world as we make it, functions as a generative matrix for literary experimentation. Each contributor considers the question of attention and explores how attending to something -- a text, a place, a moment, a detail -- has the capacity to transform both perceiver and perceived. Drawing together analyses of... The relationship between the made and the found is one of the most fertile tensions in modern French literature. This collection of critical and cr... |

Canals of Mars
ISBN: 9781857547726 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The beauty and strangeness of inner landscapes is reflected in these powerful poems. As each poem tends to the intricacies of human experience, their focus on the fractal patterns within familiar structures the tree within the leaf, the series of recurrences that unfold to create a fugue add an element of discovery and revelation to the poems, modulating and rendering strange these musings on what is ostensibly human.

Poetry and Radical Politics in Fin de Siaecle France: From Anarchism to Action Franocaise
ISBN: 9780198706106 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Poetry and Radical Politics in fin de siecle France explores the relations between poetry and politics in France in the last decade of the 19th century. The period covers perhaps the most important developments in modern French poetry: from the post-Commune climate that spawned the 'decadent' movement, through to the (allegedly) ivory-towered aestheticism of Mallarme and the Symbolists. In terms of French politics, history and culture, the period was no less dramatic with the legacy of the Commune, the political and financial instability that followed, the anarchist campaigns, the...

Blanchot Romantique: A Collection of Essays
ISBN: 9783039119738 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 322 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The work of French writer and essayist Maurice Blanchot (1907-2003) is without doubt among the most challenging the twentieth century has to offer. Contemporary debate in literature, philosophy, and politics has yet to fully acknowledge its discreet but enduring impact. Arising from a conference that took place in Oxford in 2009, this book sets itself a simple, if daunting, task: that of measuring the impact and responding to the challenge of Blanchot's work by addressing its engagement with the Romantic legacy, in particular (but not only) that of the Jena Romantics. Drawing upon a wide...

Lectures Croisées: Essays by Alan Raitt
ISBN: 9783034309295 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This selection of essays by Alan Raitt provides a series of cross-readings of nineteenth-century French literary authors and texts. The collection revolves around Flaubert and Villiers de l Isle-Adam, the two authors with whom Raitt is most associated, situating them and their principal works in relation to each other, as well as to Balzac, Nerval, Baudelaire, Mallarme and Huysmans. In so doing, the collection shows the extent to which nineteenth-century French literary history appears both as a succession and as a simultaneity of literary styles and credos."
