Accented America
ISBN: 9780195336993 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. American literary works written in the heyday of modernism between the 1890s and 1940s were playfully, painfully, and ambivalently engaged with language politics. The immigrant waves of the period fed into writers' aesthetic experimentation; their works, in turn, rewired ideas about national identity along with literary form. Accented America looks at the long history of English-Only Americanism-the political claim that U.S. citizens must speak a singular, shared American tongue-and traces its action in the language workshop that is literature. The broadly multi-ethnic set of writers...

Hybridity in Systemic Functional Linguistics
ISBN: 9781781790649 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume addresses the increasingly typical nature of text and discourse: 'hybridity'. In an SFL perspective, this means that the cultural and situational contexts that tend to activate meanings and wordings must also be seen as being 'hybrid', or as Hasan (2000) has more fittingly put it, 'permeable': "It is not simply that predetermined qualities of genres are being mixed, combined, hybridized: the fact of the matter is that by these devices people extend, elaborate and reclassify their discursive contexts. Derrida's celebrated claim that one cannot not mix genres should really be...

Lafayette: His Extraordinary Life and Legacy
ISBN: 9781491759981 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 444 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Lafayette was a charming French soldier who became like a son to George Washington and rose to lead troops in Virginia during the American Revolution. But what happened to him upon his return to France? Donald Miller presents the most complete biography in English of an aristocrat who was "the hero of two worlds"-fighting to free England's colonies and then returning home to reject tyranny in France. Lafayette inherited massive wealth and rode with princes, but he renounced his title to champion citizens' rights and offered reforms to end Louis XVI's absolute rule. His...

Reading for Our Time: 'Adam Bede' and 'Middlemarch' Revisited
ISBN: 9780748647286 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A masterclass in attentive reading that opens up brilliant insights into two of George Eliot's novels Can reading Adam Bede and Middlemarch be justified in this time of climate change, financial meltdown and ineffective politicians? J. Hillis Miller shows how, to be read for today, they must be read slowly, closely and carefully, with much attention to linguistic detail and especially to figures of speech. By relating mistakes like Dorothea's about Casaubon to current affairs, Miller's 'readings for today' can help us to come to terms with our human, social and political situation and even...
