Modernism and Morality: Ethical Devices in European and American Fiction
ISBN: 9781349423804 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Modernism and Morality discusses the relationship between artistic and moral ideas in European and American literary modernism.
