Leaves of Grass
ISBN: 9781936690978 / Angielski / Twarda / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is notable for its discussion of delight in sensual pleasures during a time when such candid displays were considered immoral. Where much previous poetry, especially English, relied on symbolism, allegory, and meditation on the religious and spiritual, Leaves of Grass (particularly the first edition) exalted the body and the material world. Influenced by Ralph Waldo Emerson and the Transcendentalist movement, itself an offshoot of Romanticism, Whitmans poetry praises nature and the individual humans role in it. However, much like Emerson, Whitman does not diminish the role of the...

Soroudi's research was concentrated in three main areas, all of which are well represented in this collection.

Second, on the basis of extensive fieldwork as well as literary study, Soroudi contributed...

A Defense of Poetry: Reflections on the Occasion of Writing
ISBN: 9780804725316 / Angielski / Miękka / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book argues that literature can be defined--pragmatist and historicist arguments notwithstanding--and that in its definition its unique value can be discovered. The author identifies literature ontologically as a sign of the preconceptual, as the -ostensive moment- that discloses neither the purpose nor the structure of existence but existence itself, revealed in its nonhuman register.

Hatshepsut, Speak to Me, Ruth Whitman's eighth volume of poetry, is her most innovative and adventurous book. It is in the form of a conversation with Queen Hatshepsut, the only woman pharaoh in ancient Egypt, whose reign of more than twenty years was one of the most peaceful and artistically splendid eras in Egyptian history.

Broken Souths: Latina/o Poetic Responses to Neoliberalism and Globalization

Broken Souths offers the first in-depth study of the diverse field of contemporary Latina/o poetry. Its innovative angle of approach puts Latina/o and Latin American poets into sustained conversation in original and rewarding ways. In addition, author Michael Dowdy presents ecocritical readings that foreground the environmental dimensions of current Latina/o poetics.

His work...

Springsong: Poetry of Rudi Holzapfel, 1960-2006

This new collection covers poems by Rudi Holzapfel from his earliest published attempt at Trinity College, Dublin, when he was just 21, through his years in Leeds and Bonn, and finally the years of his Tipperary sonnets to his death in 2006. Although a previous collection called Ask Silence Why came out years ago, it is now out of print.

W. B. Yeats
ISBN: 9780746312889 / Angielski / Miękka / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Contemporary scholarship about W.B. Yeats (1865-1939) is increasingly clear about the implications of his being a nationalist from a Protestant background. He always felt a degree of distance from his Catholic compatriots, while at the same time believing that his own background offered him relative freedom to interpret Ireland's pre-Christian traditions and mythology. This study shows how Yeats moved from passionate identification with the idea of Ireland in his early work, through a period in which he reemphasizes his Anglo-Irish inheritance and its difference from that of Catholics, to a...
