Dreams of Waking: An Anthology of Iberian Lyric Poetry, 1400-1700
ISBN: 9780226011332 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this anthology, Vincent Barletta, Mark L. Bajus, and Cici Malik treat the Iberian lyric in the late Middle Ages and early modernity as a deeply multilingual, transnational genre that needs to break away from the old essentialist ideas about language, geography, and identity in order to be understood properly. More and more, scholars and students are recognizing the limitations of single-language, nationalist, and period-bound canons and are looking for different ways to approach the study of literature. The Iberian Peninsula is an excellent site for this approach, where the history and...

Covert Gestures: Crypto-Islamic Literature as Cultural Practice in Early Modern Spain
ISBN: 9780816644766 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Forcibly expelled from Spain in the early seventeenth century, the substantial Muslim community known as the moriscos left behind them a hidden yet extremely rich corpus of manuscripts. Copied out in Arabic script and concealed in walls, false floors, and remote caves, these little-known texts now offer modern readers an absorbing look into the cultural life of the moriscos during the hundred years between their forced conversion to Christianity and their eventual expulsion. Covert Gestures reveals how the traditional Islamic narratives of the moriscos both shaped and encoded a wide range of...

Death in Babylon: Alexander the Great and Iberian Empire in the Muslim Orient
ISBN: 9780226037363 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Though Alexander the Great lived more than seventeen centuries before the onset of Iberian expansion into Muslim Africa and Asia, he loomed large in the literature of late medieval and early modern Portugal and Spain. Exploring little-studied chronicles, chivalric romances, novels, travelogues, and crypto-Muslim texts, Vincent Barletta shows that the story of Alexander not only sowed the seeds of Iberian empire but foreshadowed the decline of Portuguese and Spanish influence in the centuries to come. "Death in Babylon "depicts Alexander as a complex symbol of Western domination,...

Rhythm: Form and Dispossession
ISBN: 9780226685731 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. More than the persistent beat of a song or the structural frame of poetry, rhythm is a deeply imbedded force that drives our world and is also a central component of the condition of human existence. It's the pulse of the body, a power that orders matter, a strange and natural force that flows through us. Virginia Woolf describes it as a "wave in the mind" that carries us, something we can no more escape than we could stop our hearts from beating. Vincent Barletta explores rhythm through three historical moments, each addressing it as a phenomenon that transcends poetry, aesthetics, and...

A Memorandum for the President of the Royal Audiencia and Chancery Court of the City and Kingdom of Granada
ISBN: 9780226103037 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Conquered in 1492 and colonized by invading Castilians, the city and kingdom of Granada faced radical changes imposed by its occupiers throughout the first half of the sixteenth century-including the forced conversion of its native Muslim population. Written by Francisco Nunez Muley, one of many coerced Christian converts, this extraordinary letter lodges a clear-sighted, impassioned protest against the unreasonable and strongly assimilationist laws that required all converted Muslims in Granada to dress, speak, eat, marry, celebrate festivals, and be buried exactly as the Castilian settler...

The Refracted Muse: Literature and Optics in Early Modern Spain
ISBN: 9780226465739 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Galileo never set foot on the Iberian Peninsula, yet, as Enrique Garcia Santo-Tomas unfolds in The Refracted Muse, the news of his work with telescopes brought him to surprising prominence--not just among Spaniards working in the developing science of optometry but among creative writers as well. While Spain is often thought to have taken little notice of the Scientific Revolution, Garcia Santo-Tomas tells a different story, one that reveals Golden Age Spanish literature to be in close dialogue with the New Science. Drawing on the work of writers such as Cervantes, Lope de Vega,...
