The Sense of Early Modern Writing: Rhetoric, Poetics, Aesthetics
ISBN: 9780719069475 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In The sense of Early Modern writing, Mark Robson pursues the relation between the concept of the 'early modern' and modernity, tracing the complex interactions of post-Romantic, philosophical aesthetics and early modern rhetoric and poetics. The book therefore questions the status of what we now think of as literary texts in a period prior to the emergence of literature as a category. In this way, Robson argues for an attention to the classical notion of aisthesis, that is, for the crucial dimension of perception and response in reading and thinking -- and its rhetorical determination -- to...

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Sonstiges, Universitat Osnabruck, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In this paper, it is sought to find out in which ways so-called "survival horror" videogames manage to elicit tension in the player.
