ISBN: 9780199558179 / Angielski / Twarda / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Shakespeare and Impure Aesthetics
ISBN: 9780521514750 / Angielski / Twarda / 261 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Hugh Grady draws on a tradition of aesthetic theorists who understand art as always formed in a specific historical moment but as also distanced from its context through its form and Utopian projections. Grady sees A Midsummer Night's Dream, Timon of Athens, Hamlet, and Romeo and Juliet as displaying these qualities, showing aesthetic theory's usefulness for close readings of the plays....
