Las Locas De Postin; Los Ambiguos; Lolita Buscadora De Emociones; El Tonto
ISBN: 9781934768617 / Hiszpański / Miękka / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Alvaro Retana (1890-1970), who many consider The Spanish Petronius, belongs to that lighthearted erotic literature trend popular during the early twentieth Century, that became known in Spain as Sicalipsis (from ancient Greek sykon -fig, or vulva- and aleiptikos -to stimulate). In open opposition to the somber and solemn Spanish '98 generation, and other representatives of the so called high culture, Retana's popular erotic novelettes showcased the smiling and playful face of a country that during the 1920s and 1930s openly embraced European modernity and stood up to its challenges, among...

In this bold and highly original work, David Ratmoko offers an analysis of haunting in the history of European literature, law, and politics, in the wake of Derrida s notion of spectrality .

ISBN: 9783039101931 / Angielski / Miękka / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Have we ever really believed in gender? Is there any evidence that we have resisted, rejected, and denied the division of human beings into male and female ? Both our charter narratives and popular media murmur a persistent -no-. The theories of Luce Irigaray, Mikhail Bakhtin, and Roland Barthes, when applied to works as varied as Bible stories, parables, nursery rhymes, Greek myths and drama, Shakespeare s plays, and contemporary film reveal a new character the transcengenderist mucosa.

Search for Self in Other in Cicero, Ovid, Rousseau, Diderot and Sartre
ISBN: 9781433115950 / Angielski / Twarda / 207 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Search for Self in Other in Cicero, Ovid, Rousseau, Diderot and Sartre examines how these five theorists recognized that searching for self in an idealized other can lead to a variety of perversions. Cicero warned against seeking friends whom we regard as being everything that we are not: he advised to first be a good person and then to seek other. Ovid showed that Narcissus, who had no close friends to reinforce his identity, was oblivious to his own assets and tried to live vicariously through other. Rousseau explained why modern man, while seated in a theater, feels compassion and...

Fuera de género: Criaturas de la invención erótica
ISBN: 9781484996911 / Hiszpański / Miękka / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. El concepto de genero -construccion cultural de segregacion identitaria a partir del sexo biologico- es relativamente nuevo. Se acuno precisamente en el momento en que dejo de ser un sitio donde permanecer y en el que individuos y grupos enteros se vieron obligados a darle la espalda y emigrar. Por ello este concepto de asignacion de genero, como no es raro que ocurra, esta en relacion mutua con aquello que, por lo menos para algunos, no funciona. Cuanto mas se habla de genero, mas se revela una convencion arbitraria de roles, menos existe este. El nuevo mundo de la postguerra, con la...

Strangers to Ourselves
ISBN: 9780231071574 / Angielski / Miękka / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is concerned with the notion of the "stranger" -the foreigner, outsider, or alien in a country and society not their own- as well as the notion of strangeness within the self -a person's deep sense of being, as distinct from outside appearance and their conscious idea of self.

Double Agents: Espionage, Literature, and Liminal Citizens
ISBN: 9780231136723 / Angielski / Twarda / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Why were white bourgeois gay male writers so interested in spies, espionage, and treason in the twentieth century? Erin G. Carlston believes such figures and themes were critical to exploring citizenship and its limits, requirements, and possibilities in the modern Western state. Through close readings of Marcel Proust's novels, W. H. Auden's poetry, and Tony Kushner's play Angels in America, which all reference real-life espionaage cases involving Jews, homosexuals, or Communists, Carlston connects gay men's fascination with spying to larger debates about the making and contestation...

Mad for Foucault: Rethinking the Foundations of Queer Theory
ISBN: 9780231149198 / Angielski / Miękka / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Michel Foucault was the first to embed the roots of human sexuality in discipline and biopolitics, therefore revolutionizing our conception of sex and its relationship to society, economics, and culture. Yet over the past two decades, scholars have limited themselves to the study of Foucault's History of Sexuality, volume 1 paying lesser attention to his equally explosive History of Madness. In this earlier volume, Foucault recasts Western rationalism as a project that both produces and represses sexual deviants, calling out the complicity of modern science and the exclusionary...

Are the Lips a Grave?: A Queer Feminist on the Ethics of Sex
ISBN: 9780231164160 / Angielski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lynne Huffer's ambitious inquiry redresses the rift between feminist and queer theory, traversing the space of a new, post-moral sexual ethics that includes pleasure, desire, connection, and betrayal.

Through this theoretical lens,...
