Dumbstruck: A Cultural History of Ventriloquism
ISBN: 9780198184331 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 472 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Ventriloquism, the art of "seeming to speak where one is not," speaks so resonantly to our contemporary technological condition. We now think nothing of hearing voices--our own and others'--propelled over intercoms, cellphones, and answering machines. Yet, why can none of us hear our own recorded voice without wincing? Why is the telephone still full of such spookiness and erotic possibility? And why does the magician's trick of speaking through a dummy entertain as well as disturb us? These are the kind of questions which impel Dumbstruck, Steven Connor's wide-ranging, relentlessly...

A Philosophy of Sport
ISBN: 9781861898692 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. While previous writing on the philosophy of sport has tended to see sport as a kind of testing ground for philosophical theories devised to deal with other kinds of problems--of ethics, aesthetics, or logical categorization--here Steven Connor offers a new philosophical understanding of sport in its own terms. In order to define what sport essentially is and means, Connor presents a complete grammar of sport, isolating and describing its essential elements, including the characteristic spaces of sport, the nature of sporting time, the importance of sporting objects like bats and balls, the...

Steven Connor, one of the most influential critics of twentieth-century literature and culture working today, has spent much of his career writing and thinking about Samuel Beckett.

The Book of Skin
ISBN: 9780801488931 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Skin, Steven Connor argues, has never been more visible. "The Book of Skin explores the multiple functions of the skin in the cultures of the West. In this vividly illustrated book, Connor draws on evidence from a variety of sources including literary and other forms of public and private writing, especially medical texts, as well as painting, photography, and film, folklore and popular song. Because of its newfound visibility, skin has never been at once so manifest and so in jeopardy as it is today. This dilemma becomes evident, in Connor's view, if we examine how skin is displayed and...
