Situatedness, or, Why We Keep Saying Where We re Coming From
ISBN: 9780822328391 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "Let me tell you where I'm coming from . . ."--so begins many a discussion in contemporary U.S. culture. Pressed by an almost compulsive desire to situate ourselves within a definite matrix of reference points (for example, "as a parent of two children" or "as an engineer" or "as a college graduate") in both scholarly inquiry and everyday parlance, we seem to reject adamantly the idea of a universal human subject. Yet what does this rhetoric of self-affiliation tell us? What is its history? David Simpson's "Situatedness" casts a critical eye on this currently popular form of identification,...

Wordsworth and the Figurings of the Real
ISBN: 9781349057801 / Angielski / Miękka / 1982 / 183 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Perhaps the most powerful feature of the Romantic imagination is its ability to dissolve existing form and order and create it anew. The Romantic investigation of the functions of the imagination also leads to important insights concerning its problems and dangers. Because it separates the person experiencing it from others around him, the imagination introduces ways of seeing which cannot be assumed to be simply communicable or easily shared, and which have as their objects different forms or 'things'. These forms, or figures, risk becoming for their originators both vehicles of power, in so...

Wordsworth, Commodification, and Social Concern
ISBN: 9780521898775 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This reading of Wordworth's poetry by leading critic David Simpson centres on its almost obsessive representation of spectral forms and images of death in life. Wordsworth is reacting, Simpson argues, to the massive changes in the condition of England and the modern world at the turn of the century: mass warfare; the increased scope of machine-driven labour and urbanisation; and the expanding power of commodity form in rendering economic and social exchange more and more abstract, more and more distant from human agency and control. Reading Wordsworth alongside Marx and Derrida, Simpson...

Romanticism, Nationalism, and the Revolt Against Theory
ISBN: 9780226759463 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Why has Anglo-American culture for so long regarded "theory" with intense suspicion? In this important contribution to the history of critical theory, David Simpson argues that a nationalist myth underlies contemporary attacks on theory. Theory's antagonists, Simpson shows, invoke the same criteria of common sense and national solidarity as did the British intellectuals who rebelled against "theory" and "method" during the French Revolution.
Simpson demonstrates the close association between "theory" and "method" and shows that by the mid-eighteenth century, "method" had acquired... Why has Anglo-American culture for so long regarded "theory" with intense suspicion? In this important contribution to the history of critical theory,...

Wordsworth's Historical Imagination (Routledge Revivals): The Poetry of Displacement
ISBN: 9781138804142 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Traditionally, Wordsworth's greatness is founded on his identity as the poet of nature and solitude. The Wordsworthian imagination is seen as an essentially private faculty, its very existence premised on the absence of other people. In this title, first published in 1987, David Simpson challenges this established view of Wordsworth, arguing that it fails to recognize and explain the importance of the context of the public sphere and the social environment to the authentic experience of the imagination. Wordsworth's preoccupation with the metaphors of property and labour shows him to be... Traditionally, Wordsworth's greatness is founded on his identity as the poet of nature and solitude.

Scarcity and Growth Revisited: Natural Resources and the Environment in the New Millenium
ISBN: 9781933115108 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this volume, a group of distinguished international scholars provides a fresh investigation of the most fundamental issues involved in our dependence on natural resources. In Scarcity and Growth (1963) and Scarcity and Growth Reconsidered (1979), researchers considered the long-term implications of resource scarcity for economic growth and human well-being. Scarcity and Growth Revisited examines these implications with 25 years of new learning and experience. It finds that concerns about resource scarcity have changed in essential ways. In contrast with the earlier preoccupation with the...
