A masterful study by a preeminent scholar that situates Cather as a visionary practitioner of literary modernism Willa Cather is often pegged as a regionalist, a feminine and domestic writer, or a social realist.

Culture as Verb: Probes into the New Humanities
ISBN: 9783631874554 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book deals with what the author calls the new humanities: a broad and diversified front of orientations, directions, and turns grouped around five major currents: the digital humanities, engaged humanities, cognitive humanities, art-based research, and posthumanities. What links these approaches is their opposition toward the principles of the modern theory of humanistic cognition, which appears to be immaterial, external, impersonal, static, and neutral. Against this model, the new humanities posit a different type of cognition: embodied, penetrating the interior of the studied field,...

The Fame of Sor Juana In?s de la Cruz: Posthumous Fashioning in the Early Modern Hispanic World
ISBN: 9789463727044 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Fame of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz traces the meteoric trajectory of the Mexican Tenth Muse’s renown and studies how her worldly celebrity was altered posthumously by elegists in her Fama y obras póstumas [Fame and Posthumous Works] of 1700. In this study of a polyphonic, transatlantic volume, the didactic framework of early modern fame is pushed to its limits as panegyrists inscribe the nun into an evolving world-view that could trade in the fictions of the saintly exemplar, the Tenth Muse or a New World treasure, but could not preserve a woman’s renown on the grounds of authorship....

World Under Revision: The Poetry of Wislawa Szymborska
ISBN: 9783631676042 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the entirety of Wislawa Szymborska's poetic oeuvre. The author employs in-depth historical reflection on Szymborska's beginnings to reveal that - without describing her post-war beginnings and reflecting on her early entanglement in socialist realist newspeak - Szymborska's mature anti-dogmatic attitude will remain unclear. The book shows how Szymborska's rhetoric and stylistics - figures of reservation, negation, contradiction, tautology, and repetition - are closely connected with the construction of the poetic world and affect the shape of her...
