ISBN: 9783631654668 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. At the end of the First World War, the Raj remained economically or even strategically more central than ever in the general colonial architecture of the British Empire. Yet, between the two World Wars, the colonial regime hung only by a thread when confronted with the rising popularity of the nationalist movements. As a result, independence was granted in 1947 to this major component of the Empire, a truly cataclysmic event for the remainder of the world. This reality conflicts with the idea that a well-managed, peaceful decolonization process was launched by the British authorities....

Shakespeare Global / Local: The Hong Kong Imaginary in Transcultural Production
ISBN: 9783631381007 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 155 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Shakespeare has been introduced to Hong Kong and China for more than one hundred years.

Various possibilities in staging Shakespeare s plays provide...

Rethinking Postmodern Subjectivity: Emmanuel Levinas and the Ethics of Referentiality in the Work of Donald Barthelme
ISBN: 9783631591093 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. What is postmodern literary subjectivity? How to talk about it without falling in the trap of negative hyper-essentialism or being seduced by exuberant lit speak? One way out of this dilemma, as this book suggests, is via a redefinition of the concept in the context of Emmanuel Levinas and his radical ethics. By defining subjectivity as an ethically charged act of language, Levinas provides a fresh perspective on the often trivialized aspects of postmodern poetics such as referentiality and affect construction strategies. The foregrounding of the ethical dimension of those poetic elements has...

Poetics of Identity: Mina Loy Voicing the Fluid Female Body
ISBN: 9783631612491 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Examining closely the intersection of Continental theories of difference and a predominantly American ethic of diversity, the book uses phenomenology and interdisciplinary study to investigate female embodiment in Mina Loy s poetic and visual work. It contends that Loy s female embodied subjectivity is enacted in the mode of a subject-in-process, forever active in the transformation of materiality, intercorporeality, visuality and ideology. It shows that the representation of a forcefully fluid and unfetished female body endows Loy and her contemporary Surrealist women artists with the...

Charles Reade, George Meredith and Harriet Martineau as Serial Writers of «Once a Week » (1859-1865)
ISBN: 9783631562055 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The book is about three primary serial contributors to Once a Week during the critical period when it was featured as the rival magazine of Dickens s All the Year Round.

This study not just uncovers the long neglected Victorian weekly, but also writers of genuine originality and great thinkers. The three often underestimated writers and their serial publications represent...

Starting from the debate between the two cultures, the book analyzes the relationship between literature and science in the last years of the twentieth century in the light of scientific theories which universally underline both their indeterminacy and their lack of universal values (Relativity Theory, Quantum Mechanics, the Uncertainty Principle, Chaos Theory). Scientific theories are echoed in literary texts but also a reverse influence from literature to science has taken place. In his scientific tetralogy John Banville analyzes the figures of those scientists who contributed to a paradigm...
