The Complete Poems: The 1554 Edition of the Rime, a Bilingual Edition
ISBN: 9780226770727 / Angielski / Miękka / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Gaspara Stampa (1523?-1554) is one of the finest female poets ever to write in Italian. Although she was lauded for her singing during her lifetime, her success and critical reputation as a poet emerged only after her verse was republished in the early eighteenth century. Her poetry runs the gamut of human emotion, ranging from ecstasy over a consummated love affair to despair at its end. While these tormented works and their multiple male addressees have led to speculation that Stampa may have been one of Venice's famous courtesans, they can also be read as a rebuttal of typical...

Jewish Poet and Intellectual in Seventeenth-Century Venice: The Works of Sarra Copia Sulam in Verse and Prose, Along with Writings of Her Contemporari
ISBN: 9780226779898 / Angielski / Miękka / 632 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The first Jewish woman to leave her mark as a writer and intellectual, Sarra Copia Sulam (1600?-41) was doubly tainted in the eyes of early modern society by her religion and her gender. This remarkable woman, who until now has been relatively neglected by modern scholarship, was a unique figure in Italian cultural life, opening her home, in the Venetian ghetto, to Jews and Christians alike as a literary salon. For this bilingual edition, Don Harran has collected all of Sulam's previously scattered writings-letters, sonnets, a "Manifesto"-into a single volume. Harran has also assembled...

A Question of Syllables: Essays in Nineteenth-Century French Verse
ISBN: 9780521021326 / Angielski / Miękka / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dr Scott argues that only by attending to the precise locations of words in line or stanza, and to the specific value of syllables, or by understanding the often conflicting demands of rhythm and metre, can the reader of poetry acquire a real grasp of the intimate life of words in verse with all their fluctuations of meaning, mood and tone. The analyses through which the book pursues its argument address two principal concerns: the way in which syllabic position projects words and colours their complicated and challenged by the relationship of rhythm to metre.

Baudelaire and Intertextuality: Poetry at the Crossroads
ISBN: 9780521025591 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this reading of Baudelaire's Le Spleen de Paris Margery Evans proposes that Baudelaire's text serves to question the conventions of prose forms such as the novel and the moral fable. She shows how the text probes the fundamental tension between individuality and conformity, powerfully symbolized by the giant metropolis. Dr. Evans explores the interconnections among the prose poems that make up Le Spleen de Paris and their intertextual relations with other, mostly prose, works, and argues that this anomalous, hybrid work raises far-reaching questions of relevance to narratology and to...

Nikolai Zabolotsky: Play for Mortal Stakes
ISBN: 9780521025690 / Angielski / Miękka / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nikolai Zabolotsky (1903-1958) was one of the great poets of twentieth-century Russia.

This is the first critical biography of Zabolotsky to appear in English.

La Vie de Saint Alexis
ISBN: 9780859894623 / Starofrancuski / Miękka / 51 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is the first critical edition of a neglected version of The Life of Saint Alexis found in a late twelfth century manuscript written in England containing several other saints' lives, that now, after many adventures, resides in the Bibliotheque nationale. Whereas other versions often stress the saint's role as a posthumous miracle worker, Alexis is presented here as a model and an intercessor. The text will be of interest both to students of Old French and to students of medieval hagiography.
