Is encountering the Other still possible in a world in which we all have become rootless, disconnected and strangers, alienated from the outside world and from ourselves?

The myth of Medea is brought in to reflect upon the tragic history...

Painted Poetry: Colour in Baudelaire's Art Criticism
ISBN: 9783039110940 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 241 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Before becoming a poet, Charles Baudelaire was an art critic; and he made his literary debut with the Salon de 1845. Its failure to find a receptive audience led him to write the groundbreaking Salon de 1846 with its pivotal chapter on colour, in which Baudelaire challenged fundamental critical concepts of art by insisting on colour s complexity, expressivity and modernity. Through a close reading of his critical essays on art, this book examines how Baudelaire s thoughts on colour developed throughout his life and sets them in the context of traditional views of colour. What...

This book, which is the fruit of papers presented at the seventh Cambridge French Graduate Conference, offers innovative analyses of how space can provide metaphors for human thoughts, utterances and experiences. The authors cross-fertilise different approaches to the significance of space as a thematic and structuring principle in French and Francophone poetry, prose, philosophy and film. They are interested in three broad areas of enquiry: how spaces can be suffused with explorations of identity; how the dividing work done by maps marks and makes spaces; and how particular questions are...

Francophone Writing in Transition: Algeria 1900-1945
ISBN: 9783039102945 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 339 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Francophone writing in Algeria has traditionally been read as grounded in displacement and erasure of the colonised culture. Yet even the most assimilated evolue remained critical and conscious of a dual allegiance; and even the most resistant underwent significant acculturation, which they had to integrate into their claims to rootedness in a local community (itself jarringly reshaped by colonialism). Their writing (both fiction and non-fiction) is studied here for the first time as the hesitant articulation of strategies of alternative representation and, however modest, of deviance...

The Fiction of J. M. G. Le Clézio: A Postcolonial Reading
ISBN: 9783034301626 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 193 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Since the Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded to J. M. G. Le Clezio in 2008, there has been a wave of new interest in his uvre. This book traces the evolution of the writer s postcolonial thought from his early works to his groundbreaking autobiographical novel Revolutions, arguably his most subversive text to date. The author shows how Le Clezio s critique of colonialism is rooted in an early denunciation of capitalism and philosophical dualism, and sheds new light on the crucial roles played by Jean-Paul Sartre, Aime Cesaire and Frantz Fanon in his development.
