A Companion to Spanish American Modernismo
ISBN: 9781855662155 / Angielski / Miękka / 155 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Modernismo, a literary movement of fundamental importance to Spanish America and Spain, occurred at the turn of the nineteenth century, roughly from the 1880s to the 1920s.

Adverse Genres in Fernando Pessoa
ISBN: 9780195391213 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Poet, short-story writer, feverish inventor--Fernando Pessoa was one of the most innovative figures shaping European modernism. Known for a repertoire of works penned by multiple invented authors--which he termed heteronyms--the Portuguese writer gleefully subverted the notion of what it means to be an author. Adverse Genres in Fernando Pessoa offers an introduction to the fiction and the "profusion of selves" that populates the enigmatic author's uniquely imagined oeuvre. To guide readers through the eclectic work fashioned by Pessoa's heteronyms, K. David Jackson advances the...

Federico García Lorca: The Poetics of Self-Consciousness
ISBN: 9781855662216 / Angielski / Twarda / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume is one of few surveys in English of the whole of Lorca's poetry and the first to concentrate entirely on self-consciousness, a subject which it sees as central to our understanding of the work of a poet writing in the most self-conscious of literary periods: the Modernist era. Focusing on poems which have the poet, art and creativity as their subject, or which draw attention at a formal level to issues of practice or style, it shows how these poems speak for or against contemporary aesthetic doctrine, thereby revealing the extent of the poet's allegiance to it and the positions he...

Proyecciones de Gabriel Miró En La Narrativa del 27
ISBN: 9783034309523 / Hiszpański / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Quien fue Gabriel Miro? La pregunta no resulta inoportuna hoy en dia, cuando parece que su obra ha caido en el olvido. Miro fue un escritor relevante de la llamada edad de plata de la literatura espanola. Puede que no tuviera, ni tenga aun, un publico de masas, porque fue un autor dificil. Pero su obra fue muy significativa en la Espana de 1900-1930. Sus libros, muy polemicos, se ganaron furibundos detractores que lo minusvaloraron como mero estilista sin nada que decir o con un unico afan anticlerical e inmoral. Pero tambien tuvo admiradores que le apreciaron mas positivamente como...

Cultures of the Erotic in Spain, 1898-1939
ISBN: 9780826516961 / Angielski / Twarda / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. To escape the heat of an August day in Madrid, Maite Zubiaurre ducked into an antique shop and there among world globes and old maps, she discovered a peculiar photo album. Tucked away among formal photos of King Alphonso XIII and Queen Isabel II was a whole collection of images of naked women and men. And, unlike the King, these women and men were not just posing. Rather they were engaged in a variety of -unnatural- sex acts, acts clearly at odds with the Spanish Catholic Church's doctrine that sex should serve for procreation alone: menages a trois, fellatio, cunnilingus, and zoophilia. But...

ISBN: 9780521155342 / Angielski / Miękka / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Brazilians have traditionally and very accurately viewed their nation as the product of the coming together and subsequent interaction of its disparate racial ancestry: native American Indians, Portuguese settlers and African slaves.
