Born Translated: The Contemporary Novel in an Age of World Literature
ISBN: 9780231165952 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. As a growing number of contemporary novelists write for publication in multiple languages, the genre's form and aims are shifting. Born-translated novels include passages that appear to be written in different tongues, narrators who speak to foreign audiences, and other visual and formal techniques that treat translation as a medium rather than as an afterthought. These strategies challenge the global dominance of English, complicate "native" readership, and protect creative works against misinterpretation as they circulate. They have also given rise to a new form of writing that confounds...

Cosmopolitan Style: Modernism Beyond the Nation
ISBN: 9780231137508 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this broad-ranging and ambitious intervention in the debates over the politics, ethics, and aesthetics of cosmopolitanism, Rebecca L. Walkowitz argues that modernist literary style has been crucial to new ways of thinking and acting beyond the nation. While she focuses on modernist narrative, Walkowitz suggests that style conceived expansively as attitude, stance, posture, and consciousness helps to explain many other, nonliterary formations of cosmopolitanism in history, anthropology, sociology, transcultural studies, and media studies. Walkowitz shows that James Joyce, Joseph Conrad,...

Bad Modernisms
ISBN: 9780822337973 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Modernism is hot again. At the dawn of the twenty-first century, poets and architects, designers and critics, teachers and artists are rediscovering the virtues of the previous century's most vibrant cultural constellation. Yet this widespread embrace raises questions about modernism's relation to its own success. Modernism's "badness"--its emphasis on outrageous behavior, its elevation of negativity, its refusal to be condoned--seems essential to its power. But once modernism is accepted as "good" or valuable (as a great deal of modernist art now is), its status as a subversive aesthetic...

A New Vocabulary for Global Modernism
ISBN: 9780231165211 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Bringing together leading critics and literary scholars, A New Vocabulary for Global Modernism argues for new ways of understanding the nature and development of twentieth-century literature and culture. Scholars have largely understood modernism as an American and European phenomenon. Those parameters have expanded in recent decades, but the incorporation of multiple origins and influences has often been tied to older conceptual frameworks that make it difficult to think of modernism globally. Providing alternative approaches, A New Vocabulary for Global Modernism introduces...
