The Angler's Hours
ISBN: 9781443759663 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. INTRODUCTORY THERE are several reasons why this preface is not more apologetic than it is. Authors have for so many centuries been in such transports of glad apology, and have displayed so curious an ingenuity in expressing that diffident but hopeful emotion that, search as I will, I can happen on no set of phrases that looks original-even to myself. Yet I willingly concede the rightness of the apologetic mood in an author, and especialIy in this author, and I have large sympathy-with those critics who will be unable to see the necessity for this volume. They will be unable to see it for a...

Subjectivity in Troubadour Poetry
ISBN: 9780521031745 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The medieval troubadours of the South of France profoundly influenced European literature for many centuries. This book is the first full-length study of the first-person subject position adopted by many of them in its relation to language and society. Using modern theoretical approaches, Sarah Kay discusses to what extent this first person is a "self" or "character," and how far it is self-determining. Kay draws on a wide range of troubadour texts, providing many close readings and translating all medieval quotations into English. Her book will be of interest both to scholars of medieval...

System and Writing in the Philosophy of Jacques Derrida
ISBN: 9780521448529 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This is an important new critical analysis of Derrida's theory of writing, based on close readings of key texts. It reveals a dimension of Derrida's thinking that has been neglected in favor of those "deconstructionist" cliches favored by much recent literary criticism. Christopher Johnson highlights the special character of Derrida's philosophy that comes from his contact with contemporary natural science and with systems theory. This study casts new light on an exacting set of intellectual issues facing philosophy and critical theory today.

Simone de Beauvoir, Gender and Testimony

This is the first full-length study to explore Simone de Beauvoir's autobiographical and biographical writings in the context of her ideas on selfhood as formulated in The Second Sex and other philosophical essays of the 1940s.

This wide-ranging study explores the ideological framework of genre in Old French and Occitan literature by charting the relationship between ideology and gender in five key genres: the chansons de geste, courtly romance, the Occitan canso, hagiography and the fabliaux. Simon Gaunt offers new readings of canonical Old French and medieval Occitan texts such as the Chanson de Roland, Chré tien de Troyes' Chevalier de la charrete, and lyrics by Bernart de Ventadorn.

Gender, Rhetoric, and Print Culture in French Renaissance Writing
ISBN: 9780521024877 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Floyd Gray explores how the treatment of controversial subjects in French Renaissance writing was affected by rhetorical conventions and the commercial requirements of an expanding publishing industry. Focusing on a wide range of discourses on gender issues--misogynist, feminist, autobiographical, homosexual and medical--Gray reveals the extent to which these marginalized texts reflect literary concerns rather than social reality. His new readings of Rabelais, Montaigne, Louise Labé and others, challenge the inherent anachronism of criticism that fails to take account of the cultural...

ISBN: 9781509508792 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the face of the destructive possibilities of resurgent nationalisms, unyielding ethnicities and fundamentalist religious affinities, there is hardly a more urgent task than understanding how humans can learn to live alongside one another. This fascinating book shows how people from various societies learn to live with social diversity and cultural difference, and considers how the concepts of identity formation, diaspora and creolization shed light on the processes and geographies of encounter.
