Fontane and Cultural Mediation: Translation and Reception in Nineteenth-Century German Literature
ISBN: 9781909662544 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the mid-1880s, the Realist author and Anglophile Theodor Fontane observed: 'nowhere is so much translation done as in Germany.' Characterizing Germany as a special locus of literary translation and reception, Fontane contests a prejudice which has since become a significant problem for nineteenth-century German studies, namely the frequent assessment of the epoch as narrowly national. The present collection of essays by thirteen eminent literary scholars and historians is intended to correct this prejudice: it demonstrates that literary life and production in the nineteenth century were...

The Harz Journey and Selected Prose
ISBN: 9780140448504 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A poet whose verse inspired music by Schubert, Schumann, Mendelssohn and Brahms, Heinrich Heine (1797-1856) was in his lifetime equally admired for his elegant prose. This collection charts the development of that prose, beginning with three meditative works from the Travel Pictures, inspired by Heine's journeys as a young man to Lucca, Venice and the Harz Mountains. Exploring the development of spirituality, the later On the History of Religion and Philosophy in Germany spans the earliest religious beliefs of the Germanic people to the philosophy of Hegel, and warns with startling...

Mock-Epic Poetry from Pope to Heine
ISBN: 9780199571581 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is a study of mock-epic poetry in English, French, and German from the 1720s to the 1840s. While mock-heroic poetry is a parodistic counterpart to serious epic, mock-epic poetry starts by parodying epic but moves on to much wider and richer literary explorations; it relies heavily on intertextual allusion to other works, on narratorial irony, on the sympathetic and sometimes libertine presentation of sexual relations, and on a range of satirical devices. It includes well-known texts (Pope's Dunciad, Byron's Don Juan, Heine's Atta Troll) and others which are little known (Ratschky's...

Evariste-Désiré de Parny, 'Le Paradis perdu'
ISBN: 9780947623906 / Francuski / Miękka / 2009 / 102 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Evariste-Desire de Parny, though largely forgotten now, was well known in the nineteenth century for his lyric poems, especially the Poesies Erotiques (1778-81), and the prose-poems in Chansons Madecasses (1787). He also wrote much humorous verse, including the anti-religious La Guerre des Dieux (1799) and Le Paradis perdu (1805). The latter is a parody of Milton's Paradise Lost in four relatively short cantos. It gives a central place to the War in Heaven, casting Satan as a revolutionary. It is highly entertaining in itself, and also an important example of parody as critical response to an...
