Autour de la Césure: Actes Du Colloque Damon Des 3 Et 4 Novembre 2000
ISBN: 9783039102303 / Francuski / Miękka / 215 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. La cesure est au centre des problemes de metrique: elle concerne tout autant ceux qui se preoccupent de la prononciation des vers que ceux qui s interessent a leur genese; elle a intrigue les theoriciens de la prosodie comme ceux de la metrique; on en parle dans tous les manuels. Et pourtant, aucun metricien n a pu donner de la cesure une definition que tous acceptent, ni en elaborer une theorie qui satisfasse ses pairs. Elle reste un mystere.
C est pour cela que le groupe Damon, fonde en 1995 par Alessandra Lukinovich et Martin Steinruck et qui rassemble des metriciens de Suisse romande...

The Parallel Worlds of Classical Art and Text
ISBN: 9780521815222 / Angielski / Twarda / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Considering the relationship between artists and texts throughout classical antiquity, this study systematically applies new and objective criteria to judge the fidelity between picture and text. It becomes clear that artists illustrate stories, not texts, and Jocelyn Penny Small argues that artistic transmissions follow the model of oral, not textual, transmission where the variant rules and there is no original. Pictures on vases, she demonstrates, should not be used to reconstruct lost literary works.

Servant of the Renaissance: The Poetry and Prose of Nicolaus Olahus
ISBN: 9783906769691 / Angielski / Miękka / 439 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is the first full-length study of the poetry and prose of Nicolaus Olahus (1493-1568), a central figure of Northern humanism. He was also a much-admired diplomat and man of the church at the courts of Queen Mary of Hungary and King Ferdinand. Although Olahus s life and work are relatively well documented, a significant part of his writings including his poetry has not been subject to any previous critical study. The texts Olahus composed suggest a special approach to language. He wrote as a rhetorician, not just in the sense that he composed in an elegant style, but also to...

Nolten the Painter: A Novella in Two Parts
ISBN: 9781571133120 / Angielski / Twarda / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When one thinks of German artist-novels and Bildungsromane, works long available in translation come to mind--by Goethe, Novalis, Hoffmann, Stifter, Keller, or more recently by Mann, Kafka, Musil, or Grass. Yet Eduard Morike's provocatively subtitled Maler Nolten: Novelle in zwei Teilen (Nolten the Painter: A Novella in Two Parts, 1832) has remained neglected and misunderstood, and until now has never been translated into English, despite its obvious ties to other artist-novels and its striking modernity in playing with conventions of narrative authority and heroic identity. Witness the...

Ioláni; Or, Tahíti as It Was: A Romance
ISBN: 9780691630359 / Angielski / Twarda / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Written 150 years ago, never published, and presumed lost for nearly a century, Wilkie Collins's earliest novel now appears in print for the first time. Iolani is a sensational romance--a tale of terror and suspense, bravery and betrayal, set against the lush backdrop of Tahiti. The book's complicated history is worthy of a writer famous for intricate plots hinging on long-kept secrets. Collins wrote the book as a young man in the early 1840s, twenty years before The Moonstone and The Woman in White made his name among Victorian novelists. He failed to find a publisher for...

In this third volume of a planned five-volume series, David Roy provides a complete and annotated translation of the famous Chin P'ing Mei, an anonymous sixteenth-century Chinese novel that focuses on the domestic life of His-men Ch'ing, a corrupt, upwardly mobile merchant who maintains a harem of six wives and concubines. This work, known primarily for its erotic realism, is also a landmark in the development of narrative art--not only from a specifically Chinese perspective but also in a world-historical context. Written during the second half of the sixteenth century...

One of Spain's most popular writers, Camilo Jose Cela is recognized for his experiments with language and with difficult subject matter.

A story of history as it happens, by turns confusing and startingly clear, echoing with news and rumors, defined... Widely regarded as one of the best works by the winner of the 1989 Nobel Prize for Literature, "San Camilo, 1936 "appears here for the first time in E...

Lucky Per: Translated from the Danish with an Afterword by Naomi Lebowitz
ISBN: 9781433110924 / Angielski / Miękka / 558 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lucky Per, written at the turn from the nineteenth to the twentieth century (1898-1904), has never before been translated into English, although its author, Henrik Pontoppidan, won the Nobel Prize in literature in 1917 together with his Danish countryman Karl Adolph Gjellerup. Indeed, Pontoppidan's novel was singled out by writers like Thomas Mann and Georg Lucacs as seminal in modern world literature.
Lucky Per sweeps through every social, religious, literary, and philosophical circle of the 1890s, through the politics of city power brokers, the engineering of new...

The Transformation of Mathematics in the Early Mediterranean World: From Problems to Equations
ISBN: 9780521829960 / Angielski / Twarda / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The transformation of mathematics from its ancient Greek practice to its development in the medieval Arab-speaking world is approached by focusing on a single problem proposed by Archimedes and the many solutions offered. From a practice of mathematics based on the localized solution (originating in the polemical practices of early Greek science), we see a transition to a practice of mathematics based on the systematic approach (grounded in the deuteronomic practices of Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages). A radically new interpretation is accordingly offered of the historical trajectory of...

From the Critic's Workbench: Essays in Literature and Semiotics
ISBN: 9780820479156 / Angielski / Twarda / 522 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book comprises twenty-two chapters, including previously unpublished material, written over the entire span of Marianne Shapiro s working life. Its opening section on the European heritage begins with a long essay on the Aeneid that breaks new interpretative ground by examining the epic from the perspective of Virgil s implicit prescriptions for leaders and leadership. Chapters on Dante add to the store of knowledge on his minor works as well as the Comedy, and are followed by close readings of Petrarch and Provencal poetry. The American and comparative literature section...

Treasure Island
ISBN: 9781108060509 / Angielski / Twarda / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This classic tale by Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-94) was first published as a serial between 1881 and 1882 in the children's magazine Young Folks, where it received little attention, and then in the form of this book in 1883, which secured its everlasting fame. Telling the story of the young Jim Hawkins' search for the buried treasure of Captain Flint, it had a profound impact on how pirates were perceived in the popular imagination, immortalising treasure maps marked with an 'X', exotic locations, and one-legged seamen with parrots on their shoulders. Vividly drawn, the character of Long...

Justin and Pompeius Trogus: A Study of the Language of Justin's Epitome of Trogus
ISBN: 9780802087669 / Angielski / Twarda / 305 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Around 200AD, Marcus Junianus Justinus produced an abridged or 'epitomized' version of the Philippic Histories of the Augustan historian Pompeius Trogus. In doing so, he omitted all he did not find either intrinsically interesting or of use for historical examples. Over the centuries that followed, the abridgement eclipsed the original work in popularity, to the extent that Trogus' original work vanished and only Justin's version survived. In this investigation of the language of the Epitome, the first in almost a century, J.C. Yardley examines the work to establish how much...
