Translationality: Essays in the Translational-Medical Humanities
ISBN: 9781138727045 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book defines "translationality" by weaving a number of sub- and interdisciplinary interests through the medical humanities: medicine in literature, the translational history of medical literature, a medical (neuroscience) approach to literary translation and translational hermeneutics, and a humanities (phenomenological/performative) approach to translational medicine. It consists of three long essays: the first on the traditional medicine-in-literature side of the medical humanities, with a close look at a recent novel built around the Capgras delusion and other neurological...

Ordnungsmuster im Werk von Kurt Schwitters
ISBN: 9783110521658 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 441 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Die literarische Produktion des Avantgarde-Kunstlers Kurt Schwitters wurde in der Forschung bisher mageblich unter der Pramisse der Subversion von Ordnung betrachtet. Die Autorin zeigt hingegen, ausgehend von einer breit angelegten semiotischen Untersuchung der Kunst von Schwitters, wie die Transgression bestehender Ordnungskategorien wie Autorschaft, Gattung und Kunstform bei Schwitters mit der Etablierung alternativer Muster jenseits disziplinarer Grenzen einhergeht. Die Studie beschreibt, wie literarische und bildkunstlerische Werke gleichermaen durch die herausgearbeiteten Ordnungsmuster...

"Machaut's Legacy deepens our appreciation of the poet's wide-ranging accomplishments and influences, which span from the Middle Ages to the postmodern era.

In the Shadow of the Bomb: The Legacy of the Cold War in Dr. Strangelove, End Zone, Crash and The Wire
ISBN: 9781476664668 / Angielski / Miękka / 209 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Detective McNulty applies bite marks to a deceased man's body with a set of dentures in The Wire, illustrating how officialdom deals in falsehood. Dr. Strangelove lovingly describes the "doomsday machine" as free from "human meddling," while it destroys the world, highlighting the absurdity of placing systems above moral considerations. In Crash, Ballard survives a car accident only to be cared for by a paternal technology that tends only to his physical needs--a life of technical certitude bereft of beauty. The Cold War, with its promise of imminent, purposeless doom,...

Dark Nights, Bright Lights: Night, Darkness, and Illumination in Literature
ISBN: 9783110578621 / Angielski / Miękka / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Light and darkness shape our perception of the world. This is true in a literal sense, but also metaphorically: in theology, philosophy, literature and the arts the light of day signifies life, safety, knowledge and all that is good, while the darkness of the night suggests death, danger, ignorance and evil. A closer inspection, however, reveals that things are not quite so clear cut and that light and darkness cannot be understood as simple binary opposites. On a biological level, for example, daylight and darkness are inseparable factors in the calibration of our circadian rhythms, and a...

Words that Tear the Flesh: Essays on Sarcasm in Medieval and Early Modern Literature and Cultures
ISBN: 9783110562118 / Angielski / Twarda / 386 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The rhetorical trope of irony is well-trod territory, with books and essays devoted to its use by a wide range of medieval and Renaissance writers, from the Beowulf-poet and Chaucer to Boccaccio and Shakespeare; however, the use of sarcasm, the "flesh tearing" form of irony, in the same literature has seldom been studied at length or in depth. Sarcasm is notoriously difficult to pick out in a written text, since it relies so much on tone of voice and context. This is the first book-length study of medieval and Renaissance sarcasm. Its fourteen essays treat instances in a range of genres, both...
