ISBN: 9780748617630 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What does it mean when people use the word 'Hell' to convey the horror of an actual, personal or historical experience?Now available in paperback, this book explores the idea that modern, Western secular cultures have retained a belief in the concept of Hell as an event or experience of endless or unjust suffering. In the contemporary period, the descent to Hell has come to represent the means of recovering - or discovering - selfhood. In exploring these ideas, this book discusses descent journeys in Holocaust testimony and fiction, memoirs of mental illness, and feminist, postmodern and...

The Crossover Novel: Contemporary Children's Fiction and Its Adult Readership
ISBN: 9780415879378 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "Highly recommended" by Choice While crossover books such as Rowling's Harry Potter series have enjoyed enormous sales and media attention, critical analysis of crossover fiction has not kept pace with the growing popularity of this new category of writing and reading. Falconer remedies this lack with close readings of six major British works of crossover fiction, and a wide-ranging analysis of the social and cultural implications of the global crossover phenomenon. A uniquely in-depth study of the crossover novel, Falconer engages with a ground-breaking range of sources, from...

Orpheus Dis(re)Membered
ISBN: 9781850756095 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 227 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This is the first monograph-length study of the importance of Orpheus in Milton's conception of himself as an agonistic poet. It is one of the first monographs on Milton to make sustained use of Bakhtinian theory, specifically its concepts of author, hero and answerability. Without excluding a range of important classical sources, such as Statius's Birthday Ode to Lucan, this study argues-singularly in recent criticism-for the significant influence of Virgil. In Milton's writing (from prose to poetry), Orpheus functions as one of a number of heroes (masks, personae) by whom Milton creates...

Re-Reading / La Relecture: Essays in Honour of Graham Falconer
ISBN: 9781443837606 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What happens when we re-read a familiar book? Does the second encounter turn us into experts, more knowing and confident in our relation to the text? Or conversely, does it expose the gaps and limits of each reading experience? Does re-reading affirm our own sense of identity, reconnecting us to earlier memories, or does it shock and destabilize, revealing discontinuities between past and present selves? Is re-reading uncanny, a discovery of the familiar in the unfamiliar, or the reverse? Do certain literary devices and tropes - symbols, allegories, for example, depend on re-reading to be...
