Carmen de Burgos: Three Novellas: Confidencias, La Mujer Fría and Puñal de Claveles
ISBN: 9780719097119 / Angielski / Miękka / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is a scholarly edition of three stories by Carmen de Burgos (1867-1932), also known by her pen-name of 'Colombine'. De Burgos was an influential journalist, socio-political activist and key literary figure in the cultural ferment of pre-war Madrid and is currently being rediscovered, having languished in relative oblivion during the Franco years. The stories are individually interesting and entertaining but together provide a varied collection, with some of the issues closest to Colombine's heart tackled from different perspectives. This adds up to a coherent critique of marriage...

Transcending Textuality : Quevedo and Political Authority in the Age of Print
ISBN: 9780271037752 / Angielski / Twarda / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Transcending Textuality, Ariadna Garcia-Bryce provides a fresh look at post-Trent political culture and Francisco de Quevedo's place within it by examining his works in relation to two potentially rival means of transmitting authority: spectacle and print. Quevedo's highly theatrical conceptions of power are identified with court ceremony, devotional ritual, monarchical and spiritual imagery, and religious and classical oratory. At the same time, his investment in physical and emotional display is shown to be fraught with concern about the decline of body-centered modes of...

Manhood Enslaved: Bondmen in Eighteenth- And Early Nineteenth-Century New Jersey
ISBN: 9781580463935 / Angielski / Twarda / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Manhood Enslaved reconstructs the lives of three male captives to bring greater intellectual and historical clarity to the muted lives of enslaved peoples in eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century central New Jersey, where blacks were held in bondage for nearly two centuries. The book contributes to an evolving body of historical scholarship arguing that the lives of bondpeople in America were shaped not only by the powerful forces of racial oppression, but also by their own notions of gender. The book uses previously understudied, white-authored, nineteenth-century literature about central...

Archipelagoes: Insular Fictions from Chivalric Romance to the Novel
ISBN: 9780816666720 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Archipelagoes examines insularity as the space for adventure in the Spanish book of chivalry, much like the space of the forest in French chivalric romance. In this innovative work, Simone Pinet explores the emergence of insularity as a privileged place for the location of adventure in Spanish literature in tandem with the cartographic genre of the isolario.
Pinet looks closely at Amadis de Gaula and the Liber insularum archipelagi as the first examples of these genres. Both isolario and chivalric romance (libros de caballerias) make of the island a flexible yet...

In Pursuit of Poem Shadows: Pureza Cantelo's Second Poetics
ISBN: 9781611480160 / Angielski / Twarda / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Born in the small Extremaduran town of Moraleja in 1946, Spanish poet Pureza Canelo, at the age of twenty-five, published her first collections of poetry, Celda verde and Lugar comun (winner of the 1970 Adonais Prize). By 1979, she had settled upon an understanding of her own aesthetic evolution, which she elaborated in Habitable (Primera poetica). Then, in 1986, after a period of disenchantment with the written word during which she published only two chapbooks-Espacio de emocion (1981) and Vega de la paloma (1984)-she redefined her position in Tendido verso (Segunda poetica). Designed to...

Noble Strategies in an Early Modern Small State: The Mahuet of Lorraine
ISBN: 9781580463966 / Angielski / Twarda / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Noble Strategies in an Early Modern Small State addresses a subject few other scholars of early modern Europe attempt: the hundreds of small states that made up the overwhelming majority of Europe's political entities before the nineteenth century. Author Charles Lipp studies the elite of the duchy of Lorraine, a territory strategically placed geographically and culturally along the frontiers dividing France and Germany, and a region contested for centuries by the Habsburgs of the Holy Roman Empire and the Valois and Bourbons of the kingdom of France. Rather than focus on either the dukes of...

Women from the Golden Legend: Female Authority in a Medieval Castilian Sanctoral
ISBN: 9781855662292 / Angielski / Twarda / 257 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Hagiography was one of the most prolific narrative genres in the Middle Ages. Jacobus de Voragine's Golden Legend (c. 1260), the most popular compendium, was translated into every language in Western Europe. In the medieval Iberian peninsula, the number of conserved hagiographic documents dwarfs those belonging to other narrative genres. This book examines one collection of saints' lives, or sanctorals, and the twenty-five female saints witnessed therein. Their lives furnished exemplary models for women inside and outside the Church, and tell stories of maidens tortured by pagan sovereigns,...

Modernity's Metonyms: Figuring Time in Nineteenth-Century Spanish Stories
ISBN: 9781611480467 / Angielski / Twarda / 338 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Modernity's Metonyms considers the representation of temporal frameworks in stories by the nineteenth-century Spanish authors, Leopoldo Alas and Antonio Ros de Olano. Adopting a metonymic approach--exploring the reiteration of specific associations across a range of disciplines, from literature, philosophy, historiography, to natural history--Modernity's Metonyms moves beyond the consideration of nineteenth-century Spanish literary modernity in terms of the problem of representation. Through an exploration of the associations prompted by three themes, the railway, food, and suicide, it argues...
