Studies in Late Modern English Correspondence: Methodology and Data
ISBN: 9783039116584 / Angielski / Miękka / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The studies presented in this volume concentrate on aspects of Late Modern English correspondence in the usage of individuals belonging to different social classes, writing for different purposes, and finding themselves in different social contexts, both in Britain and in its colonies. As the growing body of research published in recent years has shown, analysing the language of letters presents both a challenge and an opportunity to obtain access to as full a range of styles as would be possible for a period for which we only have access to the language in its written form. It is an area of...

ISBN: 9780820440743 / Angielski / Twarda / 171 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nineteenth-century American women s patchwork-quilt fiction sought to redefine the concept of -brotherhood-, established in Winthrop s -city upon a hill-, by providing an inclusive and matriarchal model for the communal experiment that was America.

A Distant Drummer: Foreign Perspectives on F. Scott Fitzgerald
ISBN: 9780820488516 / Angielski / Twarda / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A Distant Drummer attends more to F. Scott Fitzgerald s aesthetic merits, ideas, style, techniques, context of his works and less to biographical details which, critics believe, are intricately interwoven within his works. In striving to respond to Fitzgerald s artistry away from the impulse of the author s personal experience, it is in a very strange paradox more attuned and, in consequence, closer to Fitzgerald, who wanted his fiction to be objectively judged and free of the stigma which besmirches his reputation."

«Yes We Can»: Barack Obama's Proverbial Rhetoric
ISBN: 9781433106675 / Angielski / Miękka / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As President Barack Obama outlined his promise for change during the presidential campaign, he made effective use of proverbs and proverbial phrases, and invented many quotable epithets that have all the makings of future proverbs. This book examines how Obama s natural and authentic reliance on traditional metaphors enhances his impressive rhetoric, rather than reducing it to mere sound bites.

Change in Life, Change in Language: A Semantic Approach to the History of English
ISBN: 9783631634530 / Angielski / Twarda / 145 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book provides the reader with a description of the semantic change that took place over two periods of the history of English language: Middle English and Early Modern English.

ISBN: 9783631535752 / Angielski / Miękka / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The Shaping of English Poetry- Volume III: Essays on 'Beowulf', Dante, 'Sir Gawain and the Green Knight', Langland, Chaucer and Spenser
