Blake and the New Age (Routledge Revivals)
ISBN: 9780415678254 / Angielski / Miękka / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. First published in 1979, this is a very welcome reissue of Kathleen Raine's seminal study of William Blake - England's only prophet. He challenged with extraordinary vigour the premises which now underline much of Western civilization, hitting hard at the ideas of a naive materialist philosophy which, even in his own day, was already eating at the roots of English national life. In his insistence that 'mental things are alone real', Blake was ahead of his time. Materialist views are now challenged from various quarters; the depth psychologies of Freud and Jung, the study of Far Easter...

Romanticism, Gender, and Violence: Blake to George Sodini
ISBN: 9781611484663 / Angielski / Twarda / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Combining queer theory with theories of affect, psychoanalysis, and Foucauldian genealogy, Romanticism, Gender, and Violence: Blake to George Sodini theorizes performative melancholia, a condition where, regardless of sexual orientation, overinvestment in gender norms causes subjects who are unable to embody those norms to experience socially expected ( normal ) gender as something unattainable or lost. This perceived loss causes an ambivalence within the subject that can lead to self-inflicted violence (masochism, suicide) or violence toward others (sadism, murder). Reading a range of...

Heidegger and the Romantics: The Literary Invention of Meaning
ISBN: 9780415727976 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While there are many books on the romantics, and many books on Heidegger, there has been no book exploring the connection between the two. Pol Vandevelde's new study forges this important link. Vandevelde begins by analyzing two models that have addressed the interaction between literature and philosophy: early German romanticism (especially Schlegel and Novalis), and Heidegger's work with poetry in the 1930s. Both models offer an alternative to the paradigm of mimesis, as exemplified by Aristotle's and Plato's discussion of poetry, and both German romanticism and Heidegger owe a deep debt...

Chateaubriand et les Choses
ISBN: 9789042037465 / Francuski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Chateaubriand aime les choses : leur aspect, presence, allure, texture. Sans doute pourrait-on parler d'un " parti pris des choses ", a la Francis Ponge, poete qui, de ce point de vue, lui ressemble un peu. La critique chateaubrianesque, on le sait, a tendance a privilegier les " grands sujets " : la politique, l'Histoire. Elle a donc laisse dans l'ombre les galets de la plage de Dieppe, les arbres et les fleurs, les chemises du chevalier, les babouches de Constantinople, les lits, portes et serrures de la chambre de Waldmunchen, les brins d'herbe qui attirent l'attention du voyageur et du...
