Despite their more respectable name, these...

How could anyone buy a two thousand year old house, move right in without re-evaluating its existing structure and fixing what was unsound? This book is about re-evaluating Christianity, correcting misinterpretations and suggesting repairs. There's something dysfunctional in the human psyche that buys into a hand-me-down Christianity without questioning the contemporary beliefs. That dysfunction is called "pre-critical naivetE" and good old human "perception" (you buy it because some authority told you to, but you don't understand how it works). That's chapter One. To make... How could anyone buy a two thousand year old house, move right in without re-evaluating its existing structure and fixing what was unsound? This b... |

History and the Early English Novel
ISBN: 9780521563772 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Robert Mayer argues that the modern English novel emerged from historical writing. Historical discourse in the seventeenth century embraced not only "history" in its modern sense, but also fiction, polemic, gossip, and marvels. Mayer shows how the narratives of Daniel Defoe--unlike those of his contemporaries Aphra Behn and Delariviere Manley--were read, in their own time, as history, making connections that later novelists developed. This new study makes an important contribution to the continuing debate about the origins of the novel in Britain.
