Trials and Tribunals in the Dramas of Heinrich Von Kleist
ISBN: 9783039110391 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 153 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. What makes the trial so appealing as dramatic form? Why do we watch? Is it simply the quest for truth and justice? Or is it much more than that?
From the time of Sophocles, the court has fascinated audiences and dramatists alike. Kleist is no exception, as each of his dramas and many of his stories and anecdotes contain a trial of some sort from its most primitive form of hand-to-hand combat in the duel to more conventional legal proceedings in secular, military and ecclesiastical courts. At trial, we desire, whether consciously or unconsciously, to have our own system of beliefs and... What makes the trial so appealing as dramatic form? Why do we watch?

The Intersection of Material and Poetic Economy: Gustav Freytag's Soll Und Haben and Adalbert Stifter's Der Nachsommer
ISBN: 9783039110841 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 181 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This work explores the intersection of the material and poetic economies in Soll und Haben and Der Nachsommer. It demonstrates how the main poetical strategies of the two novels, dichotomization (Soll und Haben) and total economization (Der Nachsommer), are defined by economic themes, structures, and forms. The -economopoetics- of the novels, i.e. the multitude of connections between economics and aesthetics, pervades the texts on three different levels: as content, as representational model, and as literary strategy. Although very different in their treatment of...

Friedrich Spielhagen
ISBN: 9783484321175 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 358 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Seitdem der einst prominente Realist Friedrich Spielhagen (1829-1911) schon zu Lebzeiten entkanonisiert wurde, konzentriert sich das Interesse auf die mit Besessenheit propagierte "objektive" Erzaauml;hltheorie oder die ersten Romane bis zu Sturmflut (1877), als er noch ein Vierteljahrhundert von oppositionellen und satirischen Erzahlwerken vor sich hatte. Diese Studie beruuuml;cksichtigt die ganze Laufbahn, lat aber die theoretischen Bemuhungen weitgehend beiseite, um die spateren Romane zu akzentuieren, in denen er das Wilhelminische Reich an seinen aus dem Vormarz geretteten Idealen von...

Harlem's Rattlers and the Great War: The Undaunted 369th Regiment and the African American Quest for Equality
ISBN: 9780700619573 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 630 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. When on May 15, 1918 a French lieutenant warned Henry Johnson of the 369th to move back because of a possible enemy raid, Johnson reportedly replied: "I'm an American, and I never retreat." The story, even if apocryphal, captures the mythic status of the Harlem Rattlers, the African-American combat unit that grew out of the 15th New York National Guard, who were said to have never lost a man to capture or a foot of ground that had been taken. It also, in its insistence on American identity, points to a truth at the heart of this book--more than fighting to make the world safe for democracy,...
