Historicizing the Enlightenment, Volume 2: Literature, the Arts, and the Aesthetic in Britain
ISBN: 9781684484751 / Angielski / Miękka / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Enlightenment has been misconceived as the culmination of traditional thought about art and literature. The focus of Volume 2 is instead the Enlightenment innovation of the modern concept of the aesthetic and its most important features, which has been wrongly credited to later generations.

Historicizing the Enlightenment, Volume 2: Literature, the Arts, and the Aesthetic in Britain
ISBN: 9781684484768 / Angielski / Twarda / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Enlightenment critics from Dryden through Johnson and Wordsworth conceived the modern view that art and especially literature entails a double reflection: a reflection of the world, and a reflection on the process by which that reflection is accomplished. Instead “neoclassicism” and “Augustanism” have been falsely construed as involving a one-dimensional imitation of classical texts and an unselfconscious representation of the world. In fact these Enlightenment movements adopted an oblique perspective that registers the distance between past tradition and its present reenactment,...

Male Suicide and Masculinity in 19th-Century Britain: Stories of Self-Destruction
ISBN: 9781350264922 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book shows how interpretations of suicidal motives were guided by gendered expectations of behaviour, and that these expectations were constructed to create meaning and understanding for family, friends and witnesses. Providing an insight into how people of this era understood suicidal behaviour and motives, it challenges the assertion that suicide was seen as a distinctly feminine act, and that men who took their own lives were feminized as a result. Instead, it shows that masculinity was understood in a more nuanced way than gender binaries allow, and that a man’s masculinity was...

The Giant Squid in Transatlantic Culture: The Monsterization of Molluscs
ISBN: 9781032318639 / Angielski / Twarda / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Drawing on a range of sources, this book explores the historical relationship between sea animals and humans, demonstrating that far from being an age-old fear with its origins among seafarers, the conception of the giant squid as deep-sea monster evolved as a product of Enlightenment thinking in the work of zoologists and popular writers.

Dickens\'s Idiomatic Imagination: The Inimitable and Victorian Body Language
ISBN: 9781501772856 / Angielski / Twarda / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dickens's Idiomatic Imagination offers an original analysis of how Charles Dickens's use of "low" and "slangular" (his neologism) language allowed him to express and develop his most sophisticated ideas. Using a hybrid of digital (distant) and analogue (close) reading methodologies, Peter J. Capuano considers Dickens's use of bodily idioms—"right-hand man," "shoulder to the wheel," "nose to the grindstone"—against the broader lexical backdrop of the nineteenth century. Dickens was famously drawn to the vernacular language of London's streets, but this book is the first to call...
