Si « l’ostentation des corps sanglants, souffrants et macabres semble constituer l’une des caractéristiques de la littérature et des arts européens du XVIe siècle et XVIIe siècle », liée en partie à un contexte violent de guerres de religion puis de mise en place de l’État moderne, qu’en est-il aujourd’hui dans nos sociétés contemporaines marquées par une hypermédiatisation de la violence ? L’ouvrage cherche à identifier et à interroger la représentation des corps meurtris, souffrants et sans vie dans la littérature et dans les arts actuels du monde...

Sylvia Plath Day by Day, Volume 1: 1932-1955
ISBN: 9781496835000 / Angielski / Twarda / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since Sylvia Plath’s death in 1963, she has become the subject of a constant stream of books, biographies, and articles. She has been hailed as a groundbreaking poet for her starkly beautiful poems in Ariel and as a brilliant forerunner of the feminist coming-of-age novel in her semiautobiographical The Bell Jar. Each new biography has offered insight and sources with which to measure Plath’s life and influence. Sylvia Plath Day by Day, a two-volume series, offers a distillation of this data without the inherent bias of a narrative. Volume 1 commences with Plath’s birth in Boston in...

Material Transgressions: Beyond Romantic Bodies, Genders, Things
ISBN: 9781802078367 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Material Transgressions reveals how Romantic-era authors think outside of historical and theoretical ideologies that reiterate notions of sexed bodies, embodied subjectivities, isolated things, or stable texts. The essays gathered here examine how Romantic writers rethink materiality, especially the subject-object relationship, in order to challenge the tenets of Enlightenment and the culture of sensibility that privileged the hegemony of the speaking and feeling lyric subject and to undo supposedly invariable matter, and representations of it, that limited their writing, agency, knowledge,...

ISBN: 9781503633032 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Kristin M.
