Romance for Sale in Early Modern England: The Rise of Prose Fiction
ISBN: 9780754654698 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The major claim made by this study is that early modern English prose fiction self-consciously invented a new form of literary culture in which professional writers created books to be printed and sold to anonymous readers. It further claims that this period's narrative innovations emerged not solely from changes in early modern culture like print and the book market, but also from the rediscovery of a forgotten late classical text from North Africa, Heliodorus's Aethiopian History. In making these claims, Steve Mentz provides a comprehensive historicist and formalist account of prose...

At the Bottom of Shakespeare's Ocean
ISBN: 9781847064936 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. We need a poetic history of the ocean, and Shakespeare can help us find one. There's more real salt in the plays than we might expect. Shakespeare's dramatic ocean spans the God-sea of the ancient world and the immense blue vistas that early modern mariners navigated. Throughout his career, from the opening shipwrecks of The Comedy of Errors through The Tempest, Shakespeare's plays figure the ocean as shocking physical reality and mind-twisting symbol of change and instability. To fathom Shakespeare's ocean - to go down to its bottom - this book's chapters focus on different...

Shipwreck Modernity: Ecologies of Globalization, 1550-1719
ISBN: 9780816691067 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Shipwreck Modernity engages early modern representations of maritime disaster in order to describe the global experience of ecological crisis. In the wet chaos of catastrophe, sailors sought temporary security as their worlds were turned upside down. Similarly, writers, poets, and other thinkers searched for stability amid the cultural shifts that resulted from global expansion. The ancient master plot of shipwreck provided a literary language for their dislocation and uncertainty. Steve Mentz identifies three paradigms that expose the cultural meanings of shipwreck in...

The Sea and Nineteenth-Century Anglophone Literary Culture
ISBN: 9781472479655 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. During the nineteenth century, British and American naval supremacy spanned the globe. The importance of transoceanic shipping and trade to the European-based empire and her rapidly expanding former colony ensured that the ocean became increasingly important to popular literary culture in both nations. This collection of ten essays by expert scholars in transatlantic British and American literatures interrogates the diverse meanings the ocean assumed for writers, readers, and thinkers on both sides of the Atlantic during this period of global exploration and colonial consolidation. The... During the nineteenth century, British and American naval supremacy spanned the globe. The importance of transoceanic shipping and trade to the Eur... |

Rogues and Early Modern English Culture
ISBN: 9780472031771 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Those at the periphery of society often figure obsessively for those at its center, and never more so than with the rogues of early modern England. Whether as social fact or literary fiction-or both, simultaneously-the marginal rogue became ideologically central and has remained so for historians, cultural critics, and literary critics alike. In this collection, early modern rogues represent the range, diversity, and tensions within early modern scholarship, making this quite simply the best overview of their significance then and now."
-Jonathan Dollimore, York University "Rogues... "Those at the periphery of society often figure obsessively for those at its center, and never more so than with the rogues of early modern England. W...

Oceanic New York
ISBN: 9780692496916 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This volume comprises a three-fold object, Book and Ocean and New York City. If this Book were Ocean, how would it feel between your fingers? Wet and slippery, just a bit warmer or colder than the air around it, since the Ocean is our planet's greatest reservoir of heat, a sloshing insulator and incubator girdling our globe. If its pages were New York City, how would they abrade your imagination? Human and teeming, endlessly humming along with that same old tune. Imagine that these three things were one thing. All together: Book and Ocean and New York City. During the long historical pause...
