Britannicus, Phaedra, Athaliah
ISBN: 9780199555994 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Jean Racine (1639-99) remains to this day the greatest of French poetic dramatists. Britannicus (1669), the first play in this volume, takes its themes from Roman history: the setting is bloody and treacherous court of the Emperor Nero. Phaedra (1677) dramatizes the Greek myth of Phaedra's doomed love for her stepson Hippolytus. Athaliah (1691), Racine's last and perhaps finest play, draws on the Old Testament story of Athaliah, Queen of Judah and worshipper of Baal, who is threatened and finally forced to concede victory to Joash, a son of the house of David and survivor of Athaliah's...

Rimbaud's Impressionist Poetics : Vision and Visuality
ISBN: 9780708325353 / Angielski / Twarda / 201 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

At the same time in Paris and London, impressionist painters were revolutionizing the way art was produced, exhibited, viewed, and discussed. This book places Rimbaud s radical poetic experiments alongside the equally disruptive experiments of impressionist painters and advances the argument that impressionism s laissez-faire ideology helps explain Rimbaud s decision to...

Rethinking Negritude through Leon-Gontran Damas
ISBN: 9789042038264 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Rethinking Negritude through Leon-Gontran Damas analyses four cases in which Damasian Negritude shifted through generic experimentation: Pigments (1937), Retour de Guyane (1938), Veillees noires (1943) and Black-Label (1956). In doing so, it also advances scholarship on Damas (1912-1978) in two ways. On the one hand, it undertakes the crucial and in-depth research needed to challenge the understanding of Negritude as a bipartite (Cesaire and Senghor) phenomenon. On the other hand, it offers an innovative reading of Damas whose work deserves more complete...

The migratory narrative is distinctly errant, haunted by a childhood lived under a Communist regime, by the austerity of Eastern block politics, and by the possibility of discovering a fleeting language to carry the seeds of illicit revelation, spiritual transformation, and insight. The book elevates smuggling to a noble art, recording how the Jewish people were hidden and transported during the Holocaust. Chrusciel...
