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

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...

Parasites: Exploitation and Interference in French Thought and Culture
ISBN: 9783034322669 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The word "parasite" evokes nearness and feeding: the Greek parasitos is "one who eats at the table of another". In biology, a parasitic organism is the beneficiary of an unequal relation with its host. The social parasite, too, is one recognized or misrecognized as the unproductive recipient of one-way exchange. In communications theory, meanwhile, static or interference ("parasite", in French) is the useless information which clouds the channel between sender and receiver. In 1980, Michel Serres's Le Parasite mobilized the concept of the parasite to figure noises, disruptions,...

The Fiction of J. M. G. Le Clézio: A Postcolonial Reading

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.

Songbirds on the Literary Stage: The Woman Singer and Her Song in French and German Prose Fiction, from Goethe to Berlioz
ISBN: 9783034307345 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 285 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This interdisciplinary study, situated at the cross-section of music, literature and gender, examines the woman singer and her song as a literary motif in French and German prose fiction from the 1790s to the mid-nineteenth century. Through selected case studies, this diachronic history of motifs offers a fresh perspective on canonical singer archetypes, such as Goethe's child singer Mignon and Madame de Stael's ground-breaking artist Corinne. The volume also examines lesser known narratives by authors including Caroline Auguste Fischer, E.T.A. Hoffmann, Hector Berlioz and Marceline...

Hélène Cixous and the Theatre: The Scene of Writing
ISBN: 9783906766201 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 166 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The theatre, both as metaphor and practice, is central to Cixous writing, yet has rarely been accorded the importance it merits within her uvre. The constant concerns of her work are represented and explored in plays which address individual and collective stories of difference, exile, love and writing. This book offers a clear contextualisation of Cixous theatre alongside detailed analyses of individual plays and argues for a reading of Cixous theatre as a dramatisation of the writing process."
