Playing the Farmer: Representations of Rural Life in Vergil's Georgics
ISBN: 9780520268326 / Angielski / Twarda / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Playing the Farmer reinvigorates our understanding of Vergil s Georgics, a vibrant work written by Rome s premier epic poet shortly before he began the Aeneid. Setting the Georgics in the social context of its day, Philip Thibodeau for the first time connects the poem s idyllic, and idealized, portrait of rustic life and agriculture with changing attitudes toward the countryside in late Republican and early Imperial Rome. He argues that what has been seen as a straightforward poem about agriculture is in fact an enchanting work of fantasy that elevated, and...

In Adulterous Nations, Tatiana Kuzmic enlarges our perspective on the nineteenth-century novel of adultery, showing how it often served as a metaphor for relationships between the imperialistic and the colonized. In the context of the long-standing practice of gendering nations as female, the novels under discussion here George Eliot s Middlemarch, Theodor Fontane s Effi Briest, and Leo Tolstoy s Anna Karenina, along with August enoa s The Goldsmith s Gold and Henryk Sienkiewicz s Quo Vadis can be understood as depicting international crises on the...

ISBN: 9780810133778 / Angielski / Twarda / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The international group of scholars who contribute to Points of Departure demonstrate the persistent fecundity of Weber s work.

ISBN: 9780521620789 / Angielski / Twarda / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This first full-length account of the Russian verse tradition shows how certain formal features are associated with certain genres and specific themes. Keeping technical terms to a minimum and providing English translations of all quotations, Michael Wachtel offers close readings of poems by more than fifty poets from Pushkin to Brodsky, and demonstrates the practical interpretive value of paying attention to poetic form.

After Antiquity
ISBN: 9780801433016 / Angielski / Twarda / 592 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. With the publication of Ritual Lament in Greek Tradition, widely considered a classic in Modern Greek studies and in collateral fields, Margaret Alexiou established herself as a major intellectual innovator on the interconnections among ancient, medieval, and modern Greek cultures.

Drawing on texts from the New Testament to the present day, Alexiou shows the diversity of the Greek language and its impact at crucial stages of its history on people who were not Greek. She then stipulates...

Re-Evaluating the Literary Coterie, 1580-1830: From Sidney to Blackwood's
ISBN: 9781137545527 / Angielski / Twarda / 241 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is about the literary and friendship networks that were active in Britain for a 250 year period. Patterns in the nature of literary social circles emerge: they may centre upon a location, like Christ Church, or a person, like Aaron Hill; they may suffer stress when private relationships become public knowledge, as Caroline Lamb's Glenarvon shows; and they may model themselves on a preceding age, as the relationship between the Sidney circle and Lady Mary Wroth exemplifies. Despite these similarities, no two coteries are the same. The circles this volume examines even differ in their...

Exemplifying how an author from a “minor” literature may be a “major” world author, this book considers the debates within World Literature regarding the classification of literatures as ‘major’ and ‘minor’, canon formation within Dutch literature,...
