Fat King, Lean Beggar
ISBN: 9780801431852 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Investigating representations of poverty in Tudor-Stuart England, Fat King, Lean Beggar reveals the gaps and outright contradictions in what poets, pamphleteers, government functionaries, and dramatists of the period said about beggars and vagabonds. William C. Carroll analyzes these conflicting "truths" and reveals the various aesthetic, political, and socio-economic purposes Renaissance constructions of beggary were made to serve. Carroll begins with a broad survey of both the official images and explanations of poverty and also their unsettling unofficial counterparts. This discourse...

The Great Feast of Language in Love's Labour's Lost
ISBN: 9780691616889 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book contends that in Love's Labour's Lost Shakespeare sought to discover the ways in which the imagination uses and abuses language. The author's critical reading shows that the characters are endowed with a wide variety of rhetorical disguises. Each assumes that his verbal and social point of view is correct, and the limitations and virtues of each viewpoint are explored as the drama unfolds. In an elegant examination of theme and style, Professor Carroll heightens the reader's awareness of Shakespeare's marvellously inventive use of language. The author analyzes the...

ISBN: 9781783606047 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. If we follow the neoliberal script, we re all consumers, happily salving our discontent in a hypermarket where money is the only language. For the majority of the people in the world, however, that image translates into a much less pleasant reality: a precarious and impoverished life.
Is there a way to break free of that worldview? Yes, says William K. Carroll, andExpose, Oppose, Proposeshows how. Detailing the work over the past four decades of transnational alternative policy groups (TAPGs), Carroll shows how these think tanks have generated ideas and resources for resistance...

This book brings to light central topics that are neglected in current histories and theories of architecture and urbanism. These include the role of imitation in earlier centuries and its potential role in present practice; the necessary relationship between architecture, urbanism and the rural districts; and their counterpart in the civil order that builds and uses what is built.

One follows the ancient model in which the architect renders his service to serve the interests of others; it survives and is dominant in modernism....

Raymond Carver: Collected Stories (Loa #195): Will You Please Be Quiet, Please? / What We Talk about When We Talk about Love / Cathedral / Stories fro
ISBN: 9781598530469 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 960 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Raymond Carver's spare dramas of loneliness, despair, and troubled relationships breathed new life into the American short story of the 1970s and ?80s. In collections such as Will You Please Be Quiet, Please? and What We Talk About When We Talk About Love, Carver wrote with unflinching exactness about men and women enduring lives on the knife-edge of poverty and other deprivations. Beneath his pared-down surfaces run disturbing, violent undercurrents. Suggestive rather than explicit, and seeming all the more powerful for what is left unsaid, Carver's stories were held up as...
