Reading Henry James in the Twenty-First Century: Heritage and Transmission
ISBN: 9781527570085 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. To commemorate the recent centennial of Henry James's death and to help readers understand the depth and scope of the author's influence both today and during the previous century, thirty leading Jamesian scholars from twelve different countries and five continents were asked to explore ways in which the notions of 'heritage' and 'transmission' currently come into play when reading James. The resulting chapters of this volume are divided into three main sections, each focusing on different ways in which James's legacy is being re-evaluated today-from his influence on key authors, playwrights...

The Demon of Noontide: Ennui in Western Literature
ISBN: 9780691100470 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Kierkegaard claimed that the gods created man because they were bored, and Baudelaire predicted that the "delicate monster" of boredom would one day swallow up the whole world in an immense yawn. Between these two statements lies the undefined expanse of ennui, whose manifestations in European literature form the fascinating subject of this book. Reinhard Kuhn's aim is to define the demon of noontide, to learn how writers through the ages have treated it, and to discover what it indicates about the nature of the creative act. Originally published in 1976. The Princeton Legacy Library...

The Cultural and Historical Heritage of Colonialism: Interrogating the Postcolony
ISBN: 9781527580824 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the time since most African countries achieved independence from European colonial powers, it is unfortunate that these nations are still politically, economically, and culturally reordered by their former colonisers. This book argues that these nations often slavishly emulate Western values to the detriment of indigenous ones. It challenges the postcolony to ground itself in local experience and then nativise external values, which entails delicately sifting through both the domestic and foreign worlds to build a decent and humane society.
