Reflets Réciproques: A Prismatic Reading of Stéphane Mallarmé and Hélène Cixous
ISBN: 9780820479187 / Angielski / Twarda / 193 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Reflets reciproques: A Prismatic Reading of Stephane Mallarme and Helene Cixous evokes the refractory aspect of a prism that bends and deflects light in order to produce a spectrum of twentieth-century thought emanating from the late nineteenth-century French literary avant-garde. Because the works of Mallarme and Cixous are often described as hermetic and illisible, Jacques Derrida intervenes to play the role of intermediary through his separate writings on these poets. Important questions arise: How does the elliptical writing of Mallarme relate to the hyperbolic writing of...

ISBN: 9783039114085 / Angielski / Miękka / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Translation is a journey a journey undertaken by the text, hopping around the world and mischievously border-crossing from one language to another, from one culture to another.

This singular literary experiment intends to magnify the idiosyncrasy of this translational journey. In the process translation reveals itself as an increasingly creative activity rather than simply a...

The Stereotype of the Priest in the Old French Fabliaux: Anticlerical Satire and Lay Identity
ISBN: 9783039100729 / Angielski / Miękka / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In this study, Burrows draws on social psychological research into the cognitive and socio-motivational components of stereotyping to explore the forces underlying the creation and development of the...

Dinner with Fish and Mirrors
ISBN: 9781904614784 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Ivana Milankov is one of Serbia's best-known poets whose poems question themselves as much as they question the world around them. Distances in space and time are reduced to the size of a line break as the poet searches for meaning in experience; despite this, however, it is a surprisingly transparent poetry, where a world is created in each poem, holding our attention through an underlying drama of reason and feeling. Milankov's poetry allows us to glimpse a modernism that draws part of its reference from the presence of the Roman Empire and surrounding ancient civilisations of the Middle...
