This book explores the rise of Shanghai-based popular magazines produced by the "Mandarin Ducks and Butterflies School" in early twentieth-century China.

Sherlock Holmes, Byomkesh Bakshi, and Feluda: Negotiating the Centre and the Periphery
ISBN: 9781498512107 / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Sherlock Holmes, Byomkesh Bakshi, and Feluda: Negotiating the Centre and the Periphery presents a postcolonial reading of Conan Doyle's canonical detective texts-Sherlock Holmes adventures, and some lesser known detective texts written by two Bengali (Indian) writers-Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay (1899-1970), and Satyajit Ray (1921-1992). The book proposes that in a postcolonial reading situation, the representation of Holmes problematizes the act of reading and also the act and discourse of inquiry. The fact that the Holmes adventures contribute to the hegemonic culture of "Anglo/Eurocentrism" is...

Remapping the Indian Postcolonial Canon: Remap, Reimagine and Retranslate
ISBN: 9781349711352 / Miękka / 201 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25 dni roboczych. This book critically examines the postcolonial canon, questioning both the disproportionate attention to texts written in English and their overuse in attempts to understand the postcolonial condition. The author addresses the non-representation of Indian literature in theory, and the inadequacy of generalizing postcolonial experiences and subjectivities based on literature produced in one language (English). It argues that, while postcolonial scholarship has successfully challenged Eurocentrism, it is now time to extend the dimensions beyond Anglophone and Francophone literatures to include...

From a Cottager's Sketchbook
ISBN: 9789629962180 / Chiński / Miękka / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. Liang Shih-chiu (1903-1987), a literary critic and theorist of many talents, was the first person to translate the complete works of Shakespeare into Chinese. Literary historians remember him chiefly for his conservative leanings and his infamous "war of words" with Lu Xun, the acknowledged leader of leftist writers in the 1930s. From a Cottager's Sketchbook highlights Liang's versatility and literary style. The essays deal with familiar and timeless topics, tempering social satire of postwar China with light humor. At a time when the common cry was "to write as one would speak," and a...

The Golden Year of Fan Cheng-Ta : A Chinese Rural Sequence Rendered into English Verse
ISBN: 9781107679238 / Chiński / Miękka / 46 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. Eight centuries divide us from Fan Cheng-ta, but across this gap of time his voice may still be heard - suave, familiar, peaceable - in a cycle of small poems which, reflecting the Chinese rural year, seem as fresh today as when they first came from his brush. The task of rendering the quality of Chinese poetry into English is temptingly difficult; and success in such an enterprise is rare and rewarding. How it came to be attempted by an English poet with the help of a Chinese scholar is told briefly in Mr Bullett's preface. The current edition is a re-issue of Mr Bullett's 1946 text.

The Poetry of Ruan Ji and Xi Kang
ISBN: 9781501511851 / Chiński / Twarda / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. The poetry of Ruan Ji has been previously translated several times, with one fully scholarly translation of both the poetry and the Fu (poetic expositions). The present translation not only provides a facing page critical Chinese text, it addresses two problems that have been ignored or not adequately treated in earlier works. First, it traces the history of the current text. The rather serious problems with this text will be, if not soluble, at least visible. Second, translations have been shaped by the anachronistic assumption that Ruan Ji was loyal to the declining Wei dynasty, when...

An advanced reader in modern Chinese, giving a text in a modern written Chinese, reproduced photographically from an original Chinese edition, together with an introduction, bibliography and notes on difficult points of language and allusions to the cultural and historical context.

The Poetry of Du Fu
ISBN: 9781614517122 / Chiński / Twarda / 2962 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. This six volume work is the first complete translation of the poetry of Du Fu, the greatest poet in the Chinese tradition. The entirety of Du Fu s works provides a more nuanced portrait of the author than the standard selections. It gives testimony to the great rebellion of 755, but also poems on building a chicken coop and repairing bamboo plumbing. In the whole we discover how the sublime and quotidian are united in a larger vision of life.

Writing Ground Zero: Japanese Literature and the Atomic Bomb
ISBN: 9780226811772 / Angielski / Twarda / 508 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. From Einstein and Truman to Sartre and Derrida, many have declared the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to be decisive events in human history. None, however, have more acutely understood or perceptively critiqued the consequences of nuclear war than Japanese writers. In this first complete study of the nuclear theme in Japanese intellectual and artistic life, John Whittier Treat shows how much we have to learn from Japanese writers and artists about the substance and meaning of the nuclear age.
Treat recounts the controversial history of Japanese public discourse around Hiroshima... From Einstein and Truman to Sartre and Derrida, many have declared the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to be decisive events in human history...
