 The first to systematically examine Waughâ€™s relationship with cinema in the context of modernism, this book examines his departure from high modernism, which took the form of an â€˜outward turnâ€™ privileging exteriority over the interiority of consciousness, foregrounding talk and drawing on cinema, comedy, and satire.

Adrienne Rich S Later Poetry - Raya Dunayevskaya And Marxist-Humanism

de Alec Marsh

~~107,33€~~ 96,60€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Reorienting understandings of Adrienne Rich''s later work through her interest in Marx and Marxist politics, this book engages with this overlooked part of her oeuvre through considerations of issues such as race, nationhood, and gender. From 1983 onward, after she visited revolutionary Nicaragua until the end of her life, Rich''s political vision can best be described as Marxist-Humanist. Until recently, very little attention has been paid to Rich''s "interest" in Marx; there is no in-depth treatment of the effect of Marx''s humanistic philosophy on Rich''s later work, or even on her unwavering, but altered dedication to Women''s Liberation. This book fills this gap, showing how Rich''s discovery of Marx''s humanism affected her poetry. In doing so, it makes a significant intervention into debates about the direction of American poetics and argues powerfully for a greater consciousness of political engagement through poetry.

Great War Modernists - D.H. Lawrence, H.D. And Richard Aldington

de Lee M. Jenkins

~~34,57€~~ 31,11€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Taking 44 Mecklenburgh Square as the focal point and springboard for a critical group study of D.H. Lawrence, H.D. and Richard Aldington, this book offers a fresh perspective on the relationship of modernist biofiction and poetry to the literature of the First World War. A group that Perdita Schaffner described as ''another Bloomsbury set'', the Mecklenburgh Square writers, like the Bloomsbury Group proper, ''lived in squares'' and ''loved in triangles'', in Dorothy Parker''s famous formulation. Geographically adjacent, these sets intersected socially and, at points, in their aesthetics: both practiced innovative forms of what may broadly be defined as ''life writing''. But, demarcating the Mecklenburgh Square writers from the Bloomsbury Set, the former had its origins in the transatlantic avant-garde: Lawrence. H.D., Aldington (and John Cournos) were all associated with Imagism, the poetic movement which instantiated Anglo-American modernism. Considered as a pro-tem collective, these four poets, all of whom were also novelists and translators, contest the binaries that still obtain between modernist and First World War writing. This group study of Lawrence, H.D., Aldington and Cournos tracks the transition of Imagism from a pre-war mode to a war poetics which includes but is not confined to the trench lyric and it traces, in the transtextual relations between the Mecklenburgh Square novels, the traumatic imprint of the war on modernist life writing.

Modernism In Wonderland - Legacies Of Lewis Carroll

~~34,57€~~ 31,11€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Retracing the steps of a surprising array of 20th-century writers who ventured into the fantastical, topsy-turvy world of Lewis Carroll''s fictions, this book demonstrates the full extent of Carroll''s legacy in literary modernism. Testing the authority of language and mediation through extensive word-play and genre-bending, the Alice books undoubtedly prefigure literary modernism at its upmost experimental. The collection''s chapters look beyond literary style to show how Carroll''s writings had a far-reaching impact on modern life, from commercial culture to politics and philosophy. This book shows us the Alice we recognize from Carroll''s novels but also the Alice modernist writers encountered through the looking-glass of these extraliterary discourses. Recovering a common touchstone between the likes of T. S. Eliot, James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, W. H. Auden, and writers conventionally regarded on the periphery of modernist studies, such as Dorothy L. Sayers, Sylvia Plath, Jorge Luis Borges, Flann O''Brien, and Vladimir Nabokov, this volume ultimately provides a new entry-point into a more broadly conceptualised global modernism.

James Joyce And Cultural Genetics - The Joycean Genome

de Wim Van Mierlo

34,57€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 As a genetic study, this book uncovers the creative DNA of James Joyce''s oeuvre by looking at the cultural forces that shaped him and that he in turn shaped in the creation of his books, developing a two-way relationship with history, memory and national identity. Following his development as an author, it revisits and redirects Joyce''s attitudes towards the Irish Revival. From Chamber Music, through Ulysses to Finnegans Wake Joyce sought to define a cultural identity that went, in many respects, against the mainstream, but that nonetheless belonged to the wider Revivalist project with which it shared certain characteristics and aspirations. Joyce''s historical and genealogical imagination is read through a careful investigation of the cultural materials that went into his work. Based on evidence from his personal library and the extensive archive of reading notes, ideas, sketches and drafts, this book investigates how Joyce used, absorbed and repurposed these materials creatively in his writing; it does so by bringing for the first time the methods of genetic criticism into the domain of cultural memory and the sociology of the text. Thus this books defines "cultural genetics" as an exploration of the textual material that are Joyce''s sources interacts with the culture that produced and received them.

de Amanda Sigler

35,76€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Exploring the collaborative, consumer-oriented Modernism that developed out of both planned and fortuitous groupings in periodicals, this book traces the serialization and advertisement of Henry James''s The Turn of the Screw in Collier''s (1898), Rudyard Kipling''s Kim in McClure''s and Cassell''s (1900-1901), James Joyce''s Ulysses in the Little Review (1918-1920), and Virginia Woolf''s "Mrs. Dalloway in Bond Street" in the Dial (1923). These periodicals-whether mass-market journals or literary magazines-adjust our perceptions of authors elsewhere known to be "in charge" and reveal the central role that compromise and chance played in the emergence of Modernism. Bringing to light new research from multiple archives, Sigler pieces together original records of journals'' advertising strategies, previously unpublished editorial correspondence, and long-buried letters to unearth the forgotten stories behind the texts we think we know so well.

Ezra Pound And His Classical Sources - The Cantos And The Primal Matter Of Troy

de Jonathan Ullyot

35,76€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book uses Ezra Pound''s The Cantos as a lens to understand modernism''s ambition to revolutionize literature through mythical and scientific methods. Homer''s Odyssey plays a unique methodological and structural role in The Cantos. The Cantos translates, interprets, abridges, adapts, critiques, parodies, trivializes, allegorizes, and "ritualizes" the Odyssey. Partly inspired by Joyce''s use of different literary styles or "technics" in Ulysses, and partly inspired by medieval classicism and 19th century philology, Pound uses a plethora of methods to translate Homer and other classical texts. This book argues that The Cantos is a modernist vision of the Matter of Troy, a term used by medieval authors to designate the cycle of texts based on the Trojan war and its aftereffects, including the nostoi (returns) of the Greek heroes. This is the first study to explore how medieval classicism and translation informs Pound''s mythical method and to systematically outline the variety and evolution of Pound''s Odyssey translations in The Cantos.

James Joyce And Photography

de Georgina Binnie-Wright

35,76€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 James Joyce and Photography is the first book to explore in-depth James Joyce''s personal and professional engagement with photography. Photographs, photographic devices and photographically-inspired techniques appear throughout Joyce''s work, from his narrator''s furtive proto-photographic framing in Silhouettes (c. 1897), to the aggressively-minded ''Tulloch-Turnbull girl with her coldblood kodak'' in Finnegans Wake (1939). Through an exploration of Joyce''s manuscripts and photographic and newspaper archival material, as well as the full range of his major works, this book sheds new light on his sustained interest in this visual medium. This project takes Joyce''s intention in Dubliners (1914) to ''betray the soul of that hemiplegia or paralysis which many consider a city'' as key to his interaction with photography, which in his literature occupies a dual position between stasis and innovation.
