Modernism Between Benjamin and Goethe
ISBN: 9781350267374 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Jane Eyre in German Lands traces the ramifications in the...

Outsiders: The Humanity and Inhumanity of Giants in Medieval French Prose Romance
ISBN: 9780268206659 / Angielski / Twarda / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Giants are a ubiquitous feature of medieval romance. As remnants of a British prehistory prior to the civilization established, according to the Historium regum Britannie, by Brutus and his Trojan followers, giants are permanently at odds with the chivalric culture of the romance world. Whether they are portrayed as brute savages or as tyrannical pagan lords, giants serve as a limit against which the chivalric hero can measure himself.

Alimentary Orientalism: Britain\'s Literary Imagination and the Edible East
ISBN: 9781684484669 / Angielski / Miękka / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What, exactly, did tea, sugar, and opium mean in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Britain?

It suggests that the interwoven discourses sparked by these commodities transformed the period’s literary Orientalism and created surprisingly self-reflexive ways through which British writers encountered and imagined cultural otherness. Tracing exotic ingestion as a motif across a range of authors and...
