ISBN: 9780333467053 / Angielski / Twarda / 203 str.

How Bad Writing Destroyed the World: Ayn Rand and the Literary Origins of the Financial Crisis
ISBN: 9781501313110 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Literature can be used to disseminate ideas with devastating real-life consequences. In How Bad Writing Destroyed the World, Adam Weiner spans decades and continents to reveal the surprising connections between the 2008-2009 financial crisis and a relatively unknown nineteenth-century Russian author. A congressional investigation placed the blame for the financial crisis on Alan Greenspan and his deregulatory policies-his attempts, in essence, to put Ayn Rand's Objectivism into practice. Though developed most famously in Rand's Atlas Shrugged, Objectivism sprouted from... Literature can be used to disseminate ideas with devastating real-life consequences.

Cities and Wetlands: The Return of the Repressed in Nature and Culture
ISBN: 9781474269827 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. From New Orleans to New York, from London to Paris to Venice, many of the world's great cities were built on wetlands and swamps. Cities and Wetlands is the first book to explore the literary and cultural histories of these cities and their relationships to their environments and buried histories. Developing a ground-breaking new mode of psychoanalytic ecology and surveying a wide range of major cities in North America and Europe, ecocritic and activist Rod Giblett shows how the wetland origins of these cities haunt their later literature and culture and might prompt us to...

Julian Barnes
ISBN: 9780719081064 / Angielski / Twarda / 192 str. "Julian Barnes" is a comprehensive introductory overview of the novels that situates his work in terms of fabulation and memory, irony and comedy. It pursues a broadly chronological line through Barnes's literary career, but along the way it also shows how certain key thematic preoccupations and obsessions seem to tie Barnes's oeuvre together (love, death, art, history, truth, and memory). Chapters provide detailed reading of each major publication in turn while treating the major concerns of Barnes's fiction, including art, authorship, history, love and religion. Lucidly written, and also...

Women and Politics in Early Modern England, 1450-1700
ISBN: 9780754609889 / Angielski This collection of essays examines women's involvement in politics in early modern England, as writers, as members of kinship and patronage networks, and as petitioners, intermediaries and patrons. It challenges conventional conceptualizations of female power and influence, defining 'politics' broadly in order to incorporate women excluded from formal, male-dominated state institutions. The chapters embrace a range of interdisciplinary approaches: historical, literary, palaeographic, linguistic and gender based. They deal with a variety of issues related to female intervention within...

The Little Magazine Others and the Renovation of Modern American Poetry
ISBN: 9780754653325 / Angielski / Twarda / 304 str. Suzanne Churchill's well-researched and superbly crafted study is the first book-length treatment of Others, an important and neglected little magazine that served as a laboratory for modernist poetic experimentation. In discussions of influential poets such as Mina Loy, Marianne Moore, and William Carlos Williams, whose careers Others helped launch, Churchill counters the notion of Modernism as aesthetically self-isolating and socially disengaged. Rather, she traces a correspondence between formal innovation and social change in American modernist poetry and argues that this dimension of...

Possessed Victorians: Extra Spheres in Nineteenth-Century Mystical Writings
ISBN: 9780754655404 / Angielski / Twarda / 182 str. In her absorbing study of nineteenth-century mystical writings, Sarah Willburn formulates a new conception of individualism that offers a fresh look at Victorian subjectivity. Drawing upon extensive archival work in the British Library, Willburn analyzes seance accounts, novels about mediumship, and metaphysical treatises to make important connections between contemporary writings on mysticism and fictional works. Willburn presents the theories of compelling characters such as Newton Crosland and Lois Waisbrooker and provides exciting new readings of well-known texts by Charlotte BrontA,...

Performing Early Modern Trauma from Shakespeare to Milton
ISBN: 9780754655640 / Angielski / Twarda / 248 str. An examination of political and cultural acts of commemoration, this study addresses the way personal and collective loss is registered in prose, poetry and drama in early modern England. It focuses on the connection of representation of violence in literary works to historical traumas such as royal death, secularization and regicide. The author contends that dramatic and poetic forms function as historical archives both in their commemoration of the past and in their re-enactment of loss that is part of any effort to represent traumatic history. Incorporating contemporary theories of memory...

Textual Conversations in the Renaissance: Ethics, Authors, Technologies
ISBN: 9780754656852 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. "Conversation is the beginning and end of knowledge," wrote Stephano Guazzo in his "Civil Conversation". Like Guazzo's, this is a book dedicated to the Renaissance concept of conversation, a concept that functioned simultaneously as a privileged literary and rhetorical form (the dialogue), an intellectual and artistic program (the humanists' interactions with ancient texts), and a political possibility (the king's council, or the republican concept of mixed government). In its varieties of knowledge production, the Renaissance was centrally concerned with debate and dialogue, not only among...

Closeted Writing and Lesbian and Gay Literature: Classical, Early Modern, Eighteenth-Century
ISBN: 9780754655503 / Angielski / Twarda / 316 str. Arguing for renewed attention to covert same-sex-oriented writing (and to authorial intention more generally), this study explores the representation of female and male homosexuality in late sixteenth- through mid-eighteenth-century British and French literature. The author also uncovers and analyzes long-term continuities in the representation of same-sex love, sex, and desire between the classical, early modern, eighteenth-century, and even modern periods. Among the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century authors and texts examined here are Mme de Murat, Les Memoires De Madame La Comtesse De...

Dante Gabriel Rossetti and the Late Victorian Sonnet Sequence: Sexuality, Belief and the Self
ISBN: 9780754651086 / Angielski In 1870, Dante Gabriel Rossetti published the first version of his sonnet sequence "The House of Life". Over the next twenty years, dozens of poets wrote thousands of sonnets resulting in the greatest flourishing of the sonnet sequence since the 1590s. John Holmes's carefully researched and eloquent study explores the causes behind this remarkable outpouring, illuminating the contributions of the leading late Victorian sonneteers to the poetry and culture of their age. The sonnet sequence had traditionally engaged with questions of religious belief, sexual love and selfhood. By the 1860s,...

Language and Revolution in Burke, Wollstonecraft, Paine, and Godwin
ISBN: 9780754654032 / Angielski / Twarda / 226 str. The Revolution in France of 1789 provoked a major 'pamphlet war' in Britain as writers debated what exactly had happened, why it had happened, and where events were now headed. Jane Hodson's book explores the relationship between political persuasion, literary style, and linguistic theory in this war of words, focusing on four key texts: Edmund Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France, Mary Wollstonecraft's A Vindication of the Rights of Men, Thomas Paine's Rights of Man, and William Godwin's Enquiry Concerning Political Justice. While these texts form the core of Hodson's project, she...

Manliness and the Male Novelist in Victorian Literature
ISBN: 9780754603801 / Angielski / Twarda / 148 str. By analyzing how Victorian literary texts both reveal and reconcile historical anxieties about the meaning of manliness, Dowling argues that masculinity is a complex construction rather than a natural given.
