The Literature of Reconstruction: Authentic Fiction in the New Millennium
ISBN: 9781501306167 / Angielski / Twarda / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Literature of Reconstruction argues for the term and concept of 'postmillennial reconstruction' to fill the gap left by the decline of postmodernism and deconstruction as useful cultural and literary categories.

In addition, he provides a clear formal framework with which to identify and classify the features of 'reconstructive literature' by...

Publishing Africa in French: Literary Institutions and Decolonization 1945–1967
ISBN: 9781781381953 / Angielski / Twarda / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 1-3 dni roboczych The history of post-war writing in French has tended to separate African literature from French metropolitan literary production.

This study historicises the aesthetic and socio-economic implications of that evident asymmetry. Archival research combines with literary analysis to explore the mediations that defined and legitimated notions of language, authorship and literary value during the decolonizing vingt glorieuses. Revealing known...
