Yeats, Folklore and Occultism: Contexts of the Early Work and Thought
ISBN: 9781138687264 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This lively introduction to the poems of W. B.

Shelley's Style
ISBN: 9781138645325 / Angielski / Miękka / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. First published 1984.

Through an exposition of Shelley's idea of language, as reflected in his theoretical writings and individual poems, this book makes a strong case for his artistic worth. A definitive introduction to Shelley, useful for both scholars and...
