Re-Thinking Theory: A Critique of Contemporary Literary Theory and an Alternative Account
ISBN: 9780521128681 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Re-thinking Theory offers a bold approach to literary studies, itself explicitly theoretical and yet making a searching critique of the modes, concepts and movements which comprise literary theory.

These deficiencies are ascribed...

Renegotiating Ethics in Literature, Philosophy, and Theory
ISBN: 9780521629386 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Is it possible for postmodernism to offer viable, coherent accounts of ethics? Or are our social and intellectual worlds too fragmented for any broad consensus about the moral life? These issues have emerged as some of the most contentious in literary and philosophical studies. In this text philosophers and literary scholars address the reconceptualizations involved in the turn towards ethics. An important feature of this has been a renewed interest in the literary text as a focus for the exploration of ethical issues. Exponents of this trend include Charles Taylor, Bernard Williams, Iris...
