Allegory in Enlightenment Britain: Literary Abominations
ISBN: 9783031190353 / Angielski / Twarda / 99 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This Palgrave Pivot argues for the significance of allegory in Enlightenment writing. While eighteenth-century allegory has often been dismissed as an inadequate form, both in its time and in later scholarship, this short book reveals how Enlightenment writers adapted allegory to the cultural changes of the time. It examines how these writers analyzed earlier allegories with scientific precision and broke up allegory into parts to combine it with other genres. These experimentations in allegory reflected the effects of empiricism, secularization and a modern aesthetic that were transforming...

Material Transgressions: Beyond Romantic Bodies, Genders, Things
ISBN: 9781802078367 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Material Transgressions reveals how Romantic-era authors think outside of historical and theoretical ideologies that reiterate notions of sexed bodies, embodied subjectivities, isolated things, or stable texts. The essays gathered here examine how Romantic writers rethink materiality, especially the subject-object relationship, in order to challenge the tenets of Enlightenment and the culture of sensibility that privileged the hegemony of the speaking and feeling lyric subject and to undo supposedly invariable matter, and representations of it, that limited their writing, agency, knowledge,...

Reading It Wrong: An Alternative History of Early Eighteenth-Century Literature
ISBN: 9780691170688 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. How eighteenth-century literature depended on misinterpretation—and how this still shapes the way we read Reading It Wrong is a new history of eighteenth-century English literature that explores what has been everywhere evident but rarely talked about: the misunderstanding, muddle and confusion of readers of the past when they first met the uniquely elusive writings of the period. Abigail Williams uses the marginal marks and jottings of these readers to show that flawed interpretation has its own history—and its own important role to play—in understanding how, why and what we read. ...

Marivaudage: théories et pratiques d’un discours
ISBN: 9780729411349 / Francuski / Miękka / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Le terme marivaudage, qui évoque encore aujourd’hui un excès de langage et une virtuosité superficielle, limite la portée d’un œuvre dont l’ambition était de créer un langage nouveau et naturel. Marivaux a dérangé ses contemporains par son style et il continue à le faire. C’est ce style en dialectique avec un concept qui lui a été très tôt apposé qui fait l’objet du présent travail collectif. Cet ouvrage retrace les vicissitudes d’un terme, en faisant l’examen critique à la fois des diverses définitions auxquelles il a donné lieu et de la réaction initiale...

Le Discours pédagogique féminin au temps des Lumières
ISBN: 9780729411592 / Francuski / Miękka / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Si l’éducation, thème phare du XVIIIe siècle, a fait l’objet d’importantes études historiques et littéraires, de nombreux textes d’auteurs féminins sont restés dans l’ombre. Méconnus ou incompris, ils ont été considérés comme une production mineure, étrangère à l’édification d’une pensée pédagogique. En se fondant sur un corpus d’une vingtaine d’ouvrages, Sonia Cherrad démontre le rôle déterminant joué par le discours de ces femmes dans la réflexion sur l’éducation au XVIIIe siècle. Ce discours est formé des voix d’auteurs connues comme Mmes Le...
