ISBN: 9781526106629 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

She confronts, as case studies, three complex figure paintings from different moments in Rego's oeuvre: The Policeman's Daughter (1987), The Interrogator's Garden (2000), and The First Mass in Brazil (1993).

ISBN: 9781611485301 / Angielski / Twarda / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This growth of so-called memory studies in literary scholarship has focused on the representation of memory and trauma in contemporary narratives dealing with the Civil War and ensuing dictatorship. In contrast, the novel of the postwar period has received relatively little critical attention of late, despite the fact that...

First, there is a palpable relationship...

Jewish Spain: A Mediterranean Memory
ISBN: 9780804787390 / Angielski / Twarda / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What is meant by "Jewish Spain"? The term itself encompasses a series of historical contradictions. No single part of Spain has ever been entirely Jewish. Yet discourses about Jews informed debates on Spanish identity formation long after their 1492 expulsion. The Mediterranean world witnessed a renewed interest in Spanish-speaking Jews in the twentieth century, and it has grappled with shifting attitudes on what it meant to be Jewish and Spanish throughout the century. At the heart of this book are explorations of the contradictions that appear in different forms of cultural memory: literary...

Spain, Portugal and the Atlantic Frontier of Medieval Europe
ISBN: 9781409454953 / Twarda / 414 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As seen from the perspective of 1492, the medieval expansion of Latin Europe was nowhere as dramatic or enduring as in the Iberian Peninsula and the Atlantic. Its Christian kingdoms continued their advance against Al-Andalus up to 1492, whereas territorial expansion elsewhere against the Muslim world had either ceased or subsided by the late 13th century. Castile and Portugal also transformed the Atlantic Ocean from the inaccessible dead-end of Eurasia into the most promising avenue for European expansion for the first time in history. The articles collected in this volume explore the causes...
