Historical Literatures: Writing about the Past in England, 1660-1740
ISBN: 9780719099243 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 'I have called my poem historical, not epic, ' John Dryden explained in the dedication to his panegyric Annus Mirabilis, 'though both the actions and actors are as much heroic, as any poem can contain.'While it's unlikely that any critic today would class Annus Mirabilis with Paradise Lost and the Iliad, it seems remarkable that the poem's other purpose-its role as 'an historical poem'-has so sharply receded from view. Historical Literatures recovers the forgotten historiographical element in works like Dryden's, surveying some of the many different forms in which Restoration and...

The White Stones
ISBN: 9781590179796 / Angielski / Miękka / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. J. H. Prynne is Britain's leading late-modernist poet. His work, as it has emerged since the 1960s, when he was close to Charles Olson and Edward Dorn, is marked by a remarkable combination of lyricism and abstraction, at once austere and playful. The White Stones is a book that is central to Prynne's career and poetics, and it constitutes an ideal introduction to the achievement and vision of a legendary but in America still little-known contemporary master.

Otherworlds: Fantasy and History in Medieval Literature
ISBN: 9780198746003 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book offers a new perspective on the "otherworlds" of medieval literature. These fantastical realms are among the most memorable places in medieval writing, by turns beautiful and monstrous, alluring and terrifying. Passing over a river or sea, or entering into a hollow hill, heroes come upon strange and magical realms. These places are often very beautiful, filled with sweet music, and adorned with precious stones and rich materials. There is often no darkness, time may pass at a different pace, and the people who dwell there are usually supernatural. Sometimes such a place is exactly...

Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,0, University of Heidelberg (Anglistisches Seminar), course: Historical Pragmatics, language: English, abstract: "You" is an unusually versatile personal pronoun; it is "used to address two or more persons, animals, or personified things" and "thus" indicates the nominative and accusative in both singular and plural.

Conceptual Metaphor Theory in the Beatles Lyrics. Metaphors as Cognitive Phenomena
ISBN: 9783668029170 / Angielski / Miękka / 34 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,7, University of Augsburg, language: English, abstract: Most people consider metaphors to be merely linguistic devises that are used for poetic purposes. A standard dictionary definition of metaphor is quite similar. The Oxford Dictionary defines metaphor as "a word or phrase used to describe sb/sth else ...]." This definition falls in line with a layman's notion of metaphors being purely linguistic with the sole purpose of functioning as decorative features. However, metaphors go...

The Scottish Legendary: Towards a Poetics of Hagiographic Narration
ISBN: 9780719095962 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is the first book-length study of the late-fourteenth-century Scottish Legendary, the only extant collection of saints' lives in the vernacular from medieval Scotland. The fifty saints' legends are remarkable for their narrative art: the enjoyment of reading the legends is heightened, while didactic and edifying content is toned down. This study scrutinises the dynamics of hagiographic narration, its implicit assumptions about literariness and the functions of telling the lives of the saints. Focusing on the role of the narrator, the depiction of the saintly characters, their...
