The Riddles of Harry Potter: Secret Passages and Interpretive Quests
ISBN: 9780230109292 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 225 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Handbooks, guides, and articles on the Harry Potter books have been produced, but there is as yet no sustained discussion of the series as a literary work.

Poetry and Public Discourse in Nineteenth-Century America
ISBN: 9780230104310 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Poetry and Public Discourse in Nineteenth-Century America explores nineteenth-century poetry as it addresses and engages in the major concerns of American cultural life. Focusing on gender, biblical politics, Revolutionary discourses and racial, sectional, and religious identities, this book reveals how these issues contended and negotiated with each other in the shaping of a pluralist democratic polity. Nineteenth-century American poetry, far from being the self-reflective art object of twentieth-century aesthetic theory, offered a rhetorical arena in which civic, economic, and religious...

The Art of Poetry: How to Read a Poem
ISBN: 9780195371185 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In The Art of Poetry, Shira Wolosky provides a dazzling introduction to an art whose emphasis on verbal music, wordplay, and dodging the merely literal makes it at once the most beguiling and most challenging of literary forms. A uniquely comprehensive, step-by-step introduction to poetic form, The Art of Poetry moves progressively from smaller units such as the word, line, and image, to larger features such as verse forms and voice. In fourteen engaging, beautifully written chapters, Wolosky explores in depth how poetry does what it does while offering brilliant...

The Bible in American Poetic Culture
ISBN: 9783031401053 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Although the Bible is the foundation of American poetic tradition, there is no study of the Bible as an ongoing force in American poetry. Not only a source of imagery, allusion, rhythm and style, the Bible is central to how poetry has both shaped and been shaped by American civic, political, and social history, including issues of ethnicity, race and gender. Through poetry core issues of the Bible in American culture emerge in a new light. What defines America as a nation? What are its historical, political and religious meanings and direction? Vitally, how is it that the Bible is at once a...

Language Mysticism: The Negative Way of Language in Eliot, Beckett, and Celan
ISBN: 9780804723879 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This work explores the place granted to language within metaphysical and theological hierarchies traditional to Western culture, where it reflects a deeply embedded ambivalence in the Western tradition toward material and temporal conditions in general. The author uses the writings of T.S. Eliot, Samuel Beckett, and Paul Celan to show how immediate this history of ambivalence remains. The language-centred interest of each writer focuses on theologies that are mystical and negative. A negative approach to language is almost always central to the mystical desire for a state beyond multiplicity,...

The Sacred Power of Language in Modern Jewish Thought: Levinas, Derrida, Scholem
ISBN: 9783111168630 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Judaic cultures have a commitment to language that is exceptional. Language in many form - texts, books and scrolls; learning, interpretation, material practices that generate material practices - are central to Judaic conduct, experience, and spirituality. In this Judaic traditions differ from philosophical and theological ones that make language secondary. Traditional metaphysics has privileged the immaterial and unchanging, as unchanging truth that language can at best convey and at worst distort. Such traditional metaphysics has come under critique since Nietzsche in ways that the author...
