ISBN: 9781349716494 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Masculinities in Literature of the American West
ISBN: 9781349566006 / Angielski / Miękka / 197 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Western genre provides the most widely recognized, iconic images of masculinity in the United States - gun-slinging, laconic white male heroes who emphasize individualism, violence, and an idiosyncratic form of justice. This idealized masculinity has been fused with ideas of national identity and character. Masculinities in Literature of the American West examines how contemporary literary Westerns push back against the coded image of the Western hero, exposing pervasive anxieties about what it means to "act like a man." Contemporary Westerns critique assumptions about innate connections...

The Palgrave Handbook of the Southern Gothic
ISBN: 9781349693337 / Angielski / Miękka / 505 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book examines 'Southern Gothic' - a term that describes some of the finest works of the American Imagination. But what do 'Southern' and 'Gothic' mean, and how are they related? Traditionally seen as drawing on the tragedy of slavery and loss, 'Southern Gothic' is now a richer, more complex subject. Thirty-five distinguished scholars explore the Southern Gothic, under the categories of Poe and his Legacy; Space and Place; Race; Gender and Sexuality; and Monsters and Voodoo. The essays examine slavery and the laws that supported it, and stories of slaves who rebelled and those who...

ISBN: 9781684481279 / Angielski / Miękka / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.
