Kontinuitaet Des Wandels- Continuity of Change: Bohuslav Martinů In Der Musikgeschichte Des 20. Jahrhunderts- Bohuslav Martinů In Twentieth-
ISBN: 9783034304030 / Angielski / Miękka / 434 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Die bemerkenswerte Zahl von Bohuslav Martinus Werken, aber auch ihre Gattungsbreite und stilistische Vielfalt lassen eine einfache Einordnung des OEuvres auf den ersten Blick unmoglich erscheinen. Bei genauerer Betrachtung kristallisieren sich jedoch asthetische Konstanten heraus, die zwar nicht auf einen einheitlichen Stil, jedoch auf eine wahrend Jahrzehnten nahezu unveranderte Musikauffassung verweisen. Auf der Grundlage seines Ideals erprobte Martinu zeitlebens unterschiedlichste Formen, Gattungen und Stile.

The Cambridge Introduction to Russian Literature
ISBN: 9780521606523 / Angielski / Miękka / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Russian literature arrived late on the European scene.

Beginning with traditional Russian narratives (saints' lives, folk tales, epic and rogue narratives), the book moves through literary history chronologically and thematically, juxtaposing literary texts from each major period.

Worlds Apart?: A Postcolonial Reading of Post-1945 East-Central European Culture
ISBN: 9781443848145 / Angielski / Miękka / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study explores the relation of the Eastern European problematic to postcolonial critical practice, interrogating the extent to which postcolonialism can help illuminate instances of imperial domination in non-Third World contexts. It argues that colonisation is to be understood principally as a condition of ideological domination that has engendered similar forms of literary and cultural resistance; consequently, it offers a comparative framework which enables a reading in differential contexts of texts that ostensibly have little in common, but which, on closer examination, reveal a...

Joseph Conrad's Polish Soul: Realms of Memory and Self
ISBN: 9788377847862 / Angielski / Twarda / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Born into a Polish szlachta (noble) family, the extraordinary modern novelist Joseph Conrad maintained, even in exile, strong ties to his Polish heritage and culture. Yet the author earned renown by writing in English, often about nautical adventures in remote parts of the world. In Joseph Conrad's Polish Soul, G. W. Stephen Brodsky seeks to reclaim the essentially Polish sensibility of Conrad's groundbreaking oeuvre. He finds in Conrad's work a distinct Polonism that plays intriguingly with selfhood, freedom, and irony. For Brodsky, Conrad's outlook and writing betray numerous...
