"Rapt in Secret Studies": Emerging Shakespeares
ISBN: 9781443823289 / Twarda / 395 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. “Rapt in Secret Studies”: Emerging Shakespeares is a collection of new essays in Shakespeare Studies from a generation of scholars presently emerging out of Australia and New Zealand. These 18 essays respond in a myriad of ways to the challenge of Prospero’s phrase from The Tempest, in which he tells his daughter Miranda that in his life before the island he had been “rapt in secret studies”-to an early modern audience, these words were likely to mean much more than a predilection for the black arts, as modern audiences tend to hear in them. Each of the key words used by Prospero...

Anti-Tales: The Uses of Disenchantment
ISBN: 9781443828697 / Twarda / 315 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The anti-(fairy) tale has long existed in the shadow of the traditional fairy tale as its flipside or evil twin. According to André Jolles in Einfache Formen (1930), such Antimärchen are contemporaneous with some of the earliest known oral variants of familiar tales. While fairy tales are generally characterised by a “spirit of optimism” (Tolkien) the anti-tale offers us no such assurances; for every “happily ever after,” there is a dissenting “they all died horribly.” The anti-tale is, however, rarely an outright opposition to the traditional form itself. Inasmuch as the...

T. S. Eliot, Dante, and the Idea of Europe
ISBN: 9781443828789 / Miękka / 225 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. T. S. Eliot greatly enhanced Dante's profound influence on European literature. The essays in this volume explore Dante's importance through a focus on Eliot. Probing the questions what Eliot made of Dante, and what Dante meant to Eliot, the essays here assess the legacy of modernism by engaging its "classicist" roots, covering a wide spectrum of topics stemming from Dante's relevance to the poetry and criticism of Eliot. The essays reflect on Eliot's aesthetic, philosophical, and religious convictions in relation to Dante, his influence upon literary modernism through his embracing and...

Crossing Textual Boundaries in International Children’s Literature
ISBN: 9781443826792 / Twarda / 545 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. “As the first part of the title indicates, my interest in looking at intertextuality and transformation still maintains a prominent place throughout this book as well. If we believe that ‘no text is an island,’ then we will understand that the relationships between and within texts across the years become a fascinating place for academic inquiry. I included the word ‘boundaries’ into the title because we never get tired of voicing our opinions about texts which traverse relegated boundaries, such as genre or medium. Not only am I interested in discussing what these changes across...

Resounding Pasts: Essays in Literature, Popular Music, and Cultural Memory
ISBN: 9781443800327 / Twarda / 365 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The field of memory studies has long been preoccupied with the manner in which events from the past are commemorated, forgotten, re-fashioned, or worked through on both the individual and collective level. Yet in an age when various modes of artistic and cultural commemoration have begun to overlap with and respond to one another, the dynamics of cultural remembering and forgetting become bound up in an increasingly elaborate network of representations that operate both within and outside temporal, cultural, and national borders.

In the Jaws of the Leviathan: Genocide Fiction and Film
ISBN: 9781443817813 / Miękka / 99 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book analyzes representations of mass violence in film and fiction about African, South American, and Asian genocides, from the points of view of the bystander and the survivor. It argues that in commercial film and fiction, metaphors and looks represent the violence and trauma indirectly, even when the representation is quite graphic; whereas in experimental novels and films, looks used to describe the violence are individualized or interactive.
Both Bapsi Sidhwa’s novel Cracking India and Deepa Mehta’s film Earth deal with the violence of the partition of India in 1947. While... This book analyzes representations of mass violence in film and fiction about African, South American, and Asian genocides, from the points of view of...
