Death in Modern Scotland, 1855-1955: Beliefs, Attitudes and Practices
ISBN: 9783034318211 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The period 1855 to 1955 was pivotal for modern Scottish death culture. Within art and literature death was a familiar companion, with its imagined presence charting the fears and expectations behind the public face of mortality. Framing new concepts of the afterlife became a task for both theologians and literary figures, both before and after the Great War. At the same time, medical and legal developments began to shift mortality into the realms of regulation and control. This interdisciplinary collection draws from the fields of art, literature, social history, religion, demography, legal...

James Kelman: Politics and Aesthetics
ISBN: 9783039111305 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 239 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This study argues that James Kelman s work should not be construed as a resigned capitulation to capitalist domination or to the fracture of a once unified working-class collective purpose. Politics are to be found not only in the content but also the form of Kelman s work. The radical aspect of his style is that rather than pandering to a ready-made identity, he remains antagonistically non-identical to the prevailing logic of capitalism by contesting its supposedly shared worldview and modes of perception. Instead, Kelman s fiction continually disputes the notion of consensus by revealing...

James Hogg: A Bard of Nature's Making
ISBN: 9783039108978 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book sheds new light on James Hogg, the Scottish poet (1770-1835), going beyond the Ettrick Shepherd stereotype. By focussing on Hogg s poetry (Scottish Pastorals, The Queen s Wake, Jacobite Relics, Queen Hynde, Pilgrims of the Sun) it shows that his work, and the critical response to it, was significantly shaped by the concept of the autodidact: a working-class writer who was considered to be a poet of Nature s Making .
The image of the autodidact is pursued from its beginnings Ramsay s Gentle Shepherd, Macpherson s Ossian, Burns... This book sheds new light on James Hogg, the Scottish poet (1770-1835), going beyond the Ettrick Shepherd stereotype. By focussing on Hogg s poetry (<...

Gateway to the Modern: Resituating J. M. Barrie
ISBN: 9781908980021 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) J.M. Barrie (1860-1937) is today known almost exclusively for one work: Peter Pan. Although in the early twentieth century he was a hugely successful playwright and novelist, many critics still fail to include him in surveys of fin de siecle literature or drama. Perhaps Barrie's remarkable variety of output has prevented him from being taken to the centre of critical discussions in any one area of literary criticism or history.
