Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Simone de Beauvoir s fiction is a largely unexplored field. This book offers new readings of her whole fictional corpus, using psychoanalysis as a critical lens. Vehemently anti-Freudian at the beginning of her career, Beauvoir denied the validity of his theories; however, her fiction hints at a different tale. It is the untold Beauvoirean story this book sets out to tell.
Firstly, using her own autobiographical admissions it examines her resolute resistance to psychoanalysis and offers possible reasons for her initial violent disavowal of its concepts. Secondly, it traces her explicit... Simone de Beauvoir s fiction is a largely unexplored field. This book offers new readings of her whole fictional corpus, using psychoanalysis as a cri...

As an adolescent, the protagonist is sexually repressed and socially humiliated, incapable of communicating her shame. As a mature woman, the narrator gives a frank account of the childhood mortification that is stamped into her psyche, and (in the concluding lines of the text) flags a later...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) In the twentieth century, the boundaries between different literary genres started to be questioned, raising a discussion about the various narrative modes of factual and fictional discourses.
Moving on from the limited traditional studies of genre definitions, this book argues that the borders between these two types of discourse depend on complex issues of epistemology, literary traditions and social and political constraints. This study attempts a systematic and specific analysis of how literary works, and in particular documentary ones, where the borders are more difficult to define,...

From Bad Boys to New Men?: Masculinity, Sexuality and Violence in the Work of Éric Jourdan

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) In his Nobel speech, entitled Art, Truth and Politics, Harold Pinter explained how he was fighting against the -tapestry of lies-.

In March 2007, the University of Lyon (Jean Moulin) and the ENS LSH organised VIVA PINTER, a tribute to his work centred on a key notion for the city of Lyon, the Spirit of Resistance. Pinter combined a concise, fragmented and syllogistic style with a keen perception of the metaphors of our time. The most specific instrument of this...
