Sciences and the Self in Medieval Poetry: Alan of Lille's Anticlaudianus and John Gower's Confessio Amantis
ISBN: 9780521471817 / Angielski / Twarda / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study examines two great poems of the later medieval period, the Latin philosophical epic, Alan of Lille's Anticlaudianus (1181-3), and John Gower's English poem, the Confessio Amantis (1390-3). James Simpson locates these works in a cultural context dominated by two kinds of literary humanism, in which the concept of self is centered in the intellect and the imagination respectively, and shows the very different modes of thought that lie behind their conceptions of selfhood and education.

The Poems of St. John of the Cross
ISBN: 9780811204491 / Angielski / Miękka / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many critics regard the work of Saint John of the Cross (1542-91), the 16th-century mystic, to be among the finest poetry Spain has produced. This bilingual edition, the first in modern English, was originally published in hard cover in 1968 by the Indiana University Press. Most of these poems were written during a period of nine months, in 1577-78, when Saint John (San Juan de la Cruz) was imprisoned and tortured in the dungeon of a small Carmelite monastery in Toledo, and their recurrent motifs are both metaphysical and deeply personal.

William Langland's Piers Plowman: The C Version
ISBN: 9780812215618 / Angielski / Miękka / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. William Langland's Piers Plowman is one of the major poetic monuments of medieval England and of world literature.

Langland's remarkable powers of invention and his passionate... William Langland's Piers Plowman is one of the major poetic monuments of medieval England and of world literature.

Das Lateinische Lehrgedicht Im Mittelalter: Analyse Einer Gattung
ISBN: 9789004106680 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 456 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Over the past two thousand years the didactic poem has been a central genre in Latin literature.

Professor Haye's book corrects this situation.
The didactic poem flourished in the medieval period, and became the most important didactic tool in schools and universities. From the 12th century onwards it also became a model for the vernacular literature of Germany, England, France, and Italy. Apart...
