Homer the Preclassic: Volume 67
ISBN: 9780520294875 / Angielski / Miękka / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Homer the Preclassic considers the development of the Homeric poems-in particular the Iliad and Odyssey-during the time when they were still part of the oral tradition. Gregory Nagy traces the evolution of rival "Homers" and the different versions of Homeric poetry in this pretextual period, reconstructed over a time frame extending back from the sixth century BCE to the Bronze Age. Accurate in their linguistic detail and surprising in their implications, Nagy's insights conjure the Greeks' nostalgia for the imagined "epic space" of Troy and for the resonances and...

Cette inventivite se revele sous une forme concise dans les jeux des mots. En combinant de facon insolite sons, syllabes, structures syntaxiques et significations, les jeux de mots ouvrent un espace de virtuosite et de speculation. Initiateurs de creativite, ils impliquent en meme temps une dimension metalinguistique, sondant les frontieres du dicible, les bornes entre sens et non-sens jusqu'a toucher a l'enigme, au grotesque, a la fantaisie verbale. Ils remanient des paradigmes, transforment les codes...

Humanism in Crisis: The Decline of the French Renaissance
ISBN: 9780472751020 / Angielski / Miękka / 331 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The uniqueness and importance of Humanism in Crisis arises from the way in which a significant historical event--the end of the French Renaissance--is examined from several different perspectives in order to provide a thorough investigation of its causes and consequences. Although historians, philosophers, sociologists, and literary critics view the French Renaissance differently, they all seem to agree on the notion that something happened between 1580 and 1630--between Montaigne and Descartes--that transformed every aspect of society and that undermined the foundation of humanism in France,...

Philologie und Grammatik

"Philologie und Grammatik" steht in der aktuellen Wissenschaftslandschaft fur zwei entgegengesetzte wissenschaftliche Herangehensweisen: Wahrend die eine versucht, (altere) Texte auch unter Hinzuziehung auersprachlicher Informationen zu rekonstruieren, fokussiert die andere ihr Interesse auf die innere Struktur von Sprache und deren Entwicklung. Doch beide Welten kommen sich in der praktischen Arbeit naher, als man denkt: Wenn beispielsweise in der Editionsarbeit mit Hilfe der Grammatik uber eine Konjektur entschieden wird, wenn bei der Analyse historischer Texte deutlich wird, wie stark...

The Legend of Charlemagne in Medieval England: The Matter of France in Middle English and Anglo-Norman Literature
ISBN: 9781843844723 / Angielski / Twarda / 489 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Matter of France, the legendary history of Charlemagne, had a central but now largely unrecognised place in the multilingual culture of medieval England. From the early claim in the Chanson de Roland that Charlemagne held England as his personal domain, to the later proliferation of Middle English romances of Charlemagne, the materials are woven into the insular political and cultural imagination. However, unlike the wide range of continental French romances, the insular tradition concentrates on stories of a few heroic characters: Roland, Fierebras, Otinel. Why did writers and audiences...

The New Russian Book: A Graphic Cultural History
ISBN: 9783319507071 / Angielski / Twarda / 343 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book takes up the obtrusive problem of visual representation of fiction in contemporary Russian book design. By analyzing a broad variety of book covers, the study offers an absolutely unique material that illustrates a radically changing notion of literature in the transformation of Soviet print culture to a post-Soviet book market. It delivers a profound and critical exploration of Russian visual imaginary of classic, popular, and contemporary prose. Among all the carelessly bungled covers of mass-published post-Soviet series the study identifies gems from experimental designers. By...

Love as Human Freedom
ISBN: 9781503602274 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Rather than see love as a natural form of affection, Love As Human Freedom sees love as a practice that changes over time through which new social realities are brought into being. Love brings about, and helps us to explain, immense social-historical shifts--from the rise of feminism and the emergence of bourgeois family life, to the struggles for abortion rights and birth control and the erosion of a gender-based division of labor. Drawing on Hegel, Paul A. Kottman argues that love generates and explains expanded possibilities for freely lived lives. Through keen interpretations of...
