Song for the Sun in Us
ISBN: 9789966250568 / Angielski / Miękka / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Okello Oculi is one of East Africa's foremost and pioneering writers. Born in Uganda, his poetry belongs to the same school as that of Okot p'Bitek and Joseph Brunga. It is a school that seeks to re-assert African cultural heritage with a critique of foreign influences. His voice is both evocative of a receding Africa and a declamatory dialogue with the new Africa. There are three main themes running through this new collection: the ecology of humans, animals and the natural world; Africa's ideological ancestory; and the interaction of political theory and literary enterprise.

Feminizing Chaucer
ISBN: 9780859916134 / Angielski / Miękka / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Women are a major subject of Chaucer's writings, and their place in his work has attracted much recent critical attention.

Mann argues that the traditionally 'female' virtues of patience and pity are central to Chaucer's moral ethos, and that this...

Carl Jung, in his writings on psychotherapy, promoted the idea of therapists being able to get into the therapeutic 'soup' with their patients, and to be changed themselves by it. In this volume of poetry, the author brings the unconscious into view and reflects on the meaning of ordinary experiences in the world we now inhabit. She takes her examples both from nature and from human experience. The collective unconscious of both the United Kingdom and the United States of America is the subject matter of these very accessible poems.
