Book and Text in France, 1400-1600: Poetry on the Page
ISBN: 9780754655909 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In recent years, literary scholars have come increasingly to acknowledge that an adequate understanding of texts requires the study of books, the material objects through which the meanings of texts are constructed. Focusing on French poetry in the period 1400-1600, contributors to this volume analyze layout, illustration, graphology, paratext, typography, anthologization, and other such elements in works by a variety of writers, among them Charles d'Orleans, Jean Bouchet, Pierre de Ronsard and Louise Labe. They demonstrate how those elements play a crucial role in shaping the relationships...

André Breton in Exile: The Poetics of Occultation, 1941-1947
ISBN: 9781472485526 / Angielski / Twarda / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Following the journey of the leader of the Surrealist movement, Andre Breton, into exile during the Second World War, the author of this book traces the trajectory of his thought and poetic output of 1941-1948. Through a close examination of the major - and as yet little studied - works written during these years, she demonstrates how Breton's quest for 'a new myth' for the post-war world led him to widen his enquiry into hermeticism, myth and the occult. This ground-breaking study establishes Breton's profound intellectual debt to 19th century Romanticism, its literature and thought,...

A Companion to Marie de France
ISBN: 9789004202177 / Angielski / Twarda / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. After nearly eight centuries and much research and writing on Marie de France, the only biographical information we know about her, with any degree of certainty, is that she was from France and wrote for the Anglo-Angevin court of Henry II. Yet Marie de France remains today one of the most prominent literary voices of the end of the twelfth century and was the first woman of letters to write in French. The chapters in this book are composed by scholars who have specialized in Marie de France studies, in most cases for many years. Offering traditional views alongside new critical perspectives,...

Eustache Deschamps: Selected Poems
ISBN: 9780415942430 / Francuski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Eustache Deschamps studied under the tutelage of Guillaume de Marchault, traveled in Syria, Palestine, and Egypt-where he was said to have been made a slave-and eventually become recognized as one of the great French medieval poets. He was the first writer to dissociate lyric poetry from its musical setting and his witty perceptions comment on nearly all aspects of daily life: from women's underwear to gluttonous diners, from praise of famous writers to scorn for the unscrupulous of all ranks, from the delights of youth to the horrors of war. This volume provides facing-page, dual-language...

The Complete Story of the Grail: Chrétien de Troyes' Perceval and Its Continuations
ISBN: 9781843844006 / Angielski / Twarda / 634 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The mysterious and haunting Grail makes its first appearance in literature in Chretien de Troyes' Perceval at the end of the twelfth century. But Chretien never finished his poem, leaving an unresolved story and an incomplete picture of the Grail. It was, however, far too attractive an idea to leave. Not only did it inspire quite separate works; his own unfinished poem was continued and finally completed by no fewer than four other writers. The Complete Story of the Grail is the first ever translation of the whole of the rich and compelling body of tales contained in Chretien's poem and its...

The Chanson d'Antioche: An Old French Account of the First Crusade
ISBN: 9780754654896 / Angielski / Twarda / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Old-French Chanson d'Antioche has long intrigued historians and literary scholars. Unusually among epic poems, it follows closely a well documented historical event a the First Crusade a and appears to include substantial and genuine historical content. At one time it was believed to be based on an account by an eye-witness, 'Richard the Pilgrim'. Carol Sweetenham and Susan Edgington have combined forces to investigate such claims, and their findings are set out in a comprehensive introduction which, firstly, examines the textual history of the poem from its possible oral beginnings...

Virgil and the Myth of Venice : Books and Readers in the Italian Renaissance
ISBN: 9780198152545 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book, which is the first comprehensive study of its subject, shows that the Roman poet Virgil played an unexpectedly significant role in the shaping of Renaissance Venetian culture. Drawing on reception theory and the sociology of literature, it argues that Virgil's poetry became a best-seller because it sometimes challenged, but more often confirmed, the specific moral, religious, and social values of the Venetian readers.

Imitatio im George-Kreis
ISBN: 9783110254464 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 411 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Stefan George und sein Kreis erfahren seit geraumer Zeit starke Aufmerksamkeit. Interesse wird meist den Personen, ihren Werdegangen, ihren politischen Uberzeugungen und sexuellen Praferenzen entgegengebracht. Was aber hat das mit der Produktion von Lyrik im George-Kreis zu tun? Die Autorin zeigt, dass beide Aspekte durch ein umfassendes Konzept von Nachahmung verbunden sind. In Georges Lyrik und Poetik identifiziert sie eine Nachahmungstheorie, die sowohl den sozialen Interaktionsformen des Kreises als auch seinen Gedichten zugrunde liegt. Uber die stilistische Nachahmung beim Verfassen... Stefan George und sein Kreis erfahren seit geraumer Zeit starke Aufmerksamkeit.

Between Baudelaire and Mallarmé: Voice, Conversation and Music
ISBN: 9780754667452 / Angielski / Twarda / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As the status of poetry became less and less certain over the course of the nineteenth century, poets such as Baudelaire and Mallarme began to explore ways to ensure that poetry would not be overtaken by music in the hierarchy of the arts. Helen Abbott examines the verse and prose poetry of these two important poets, together with their critical writings, to address how their attitudes towards the performance practice of poetry influenced the future of both poetry and music. Central to her analysis is the issue of 'voice', a term that remains elusive in spite of its broad application....

Debating the Roman de la Rose: A Critical Anthology
ISBN: 9780415967655 / Angielski / Twarda / 484 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Around the year 1400, the poet Christine de Pizan initiated a public debate in France over the literary "truth" and merit of the Roman of the Rose, perhaps the most renowned work of the French Middle Ages. She argued against what she considered to be misrepresentations of female virtue and vice in the Rose. Her bold objections aroused the support and opposition of some of the period's most famous intellectuals, notable Jean Gerson, whose sermons on the subject are important literary documents. "The Quarrel of the Rose" is the name given by modern scholars to the collection of these and...

Love and Death in Medieval French and Occitan Courtly Literature: Martyrs to Love
ISBN: 9780199272075 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Some of medieval culture's most arresting images and stories inextricably associate love and death. Thus the troubadour Jaufre Rudel dies in the arms of the countess of Tripoli, having loved her from afar without ever having seen her. Or in Marie de France's Chevrefoil, Tristan and Iseult's fatal love is hauntingly symbolized by the fatally entwined honeysuckle and hazel. And who could forget the ethereal spectacle of the Damoisele of Escalot's body carried to Camelot on a supernatural funerary boat with a letter on her breast explaining how her unrequited love for Lancelot killed her?...

Christine de Pizan: A Casebook
ISBN: 9780415939096 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Christine de Pizan wrote voluminously, commenting on various aspects of the late-medieval society in which she lived. Considered by many to be the first French woman of letters, Christine and her writing have been difficult to place ever since she began putting her thoughts on the page. Although her work was neglected in the eighteenth and nineteenth century, there has been a eruption of Christine studies in recent decades, making her the perfect subject for a casebook. This volume serves as a useful guide to contemporary research exploring Christine's life and work as they reflected and...
