~~54,69€~~ 49,22€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This volume brings together several studies on the writings of Stanisaw Przybyszewski (1868-1927), one of the most important writers of Young Poland. The book also includes a supplement on the poetry of Zofia Wojnarowska. All the co-authors of the volume have explored Przybyszewski's work from different perspectives, placing it in many cultural contexts. Among the themes explored are the novel Children of Satan, the drama The Guests, Karol Irzykowski's statements about Przybyszewski, the opposition between bohemianism and dandyism (exemplified by Przybyszewski and Roman Jaworski), and Przybyszewski's views on Pozna culture. Przybyszewski was a writer appreciated in Germany and Scandinavia. He quickly became a leader of the Polish artistic avant-garde. In his works he dealt with the most important problems of modern culture at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The studies collected in this monograph show various aspects of his writing, which combined Polish and European perspectives.

A New History Of Latvian Literature - The Long Nineteenth Century

65,85€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

Scholars from diverse but related research fields (literature, history, art history, and folklore studies) scan the nineteenth-century cultural scene from various intersecting perspectives, taking into account important links between literature, oral culture and visual art, changes in reading practices, periodicals, and the book market as well as the complex interactions between social transformations and aesthetic developments.

After The Fall - On The Writings Of Czesaw Miosz

de Tomasz Garbol

68,24€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Tomasz Garbols book reconstructs Czesaw Mioszs poetic vision of the world after the Fall. The entry point to this approach is the conviction about the ambivalence of previous interpretations of Mioszs works, especially about his bipolar poetic worldview (his intellectual and existential division between pessimism and ecstasy) and his understanding of the consequences of the Fall (reversible or fatalistic). The book is a literary studies take on the relationship between literature and religion. The main direction is that Mioszs main need in art comes from his yearning for contact with the meaning of reality, which he seeks in the activity of poetic imagination.

The Literature Of Polish Romanticism In Its European Contexts

57,11€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The book contains essays on the heterogeneity of Polish Romantic literature and its links with Europes cultural heritage. The essays deal with, among other topics, the idea of beauty and truth, correspondences between the arts, the role of tradition and memory in the Romantic era, and the significance of mysticism and irony. The authors of the essays write about such seemingly distant issues as music and revolution in Chopins times, and travel to places as disparate as Siberia and Italy. Their thematically diverse reflections are linked by questions they pose about the romantic roots of todays Europe. The works of Mickiewicz and other Romantic poets discussed in this book thus clearly do not concern merely the past, but also speak to the present day, describing the experiences of everyday life in its various dimensions.

Praxis. An Exercise In Engaging Cultural Studies

de Agata Skórzyska

~~60,95€~~ 54,86€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The book is designed as a methodological exercise in cultural studies described as "engaging", which refers to a specific research approach requiring cooperation and the inclusion of individuals and communities in the research process, using a rich repertoire of humanistic traditions as a tool of social criticism. The key is to treat cultural studies as a workshop in which the researcher changes from a distant observer into a practical person a public intellectual and craftsman at the same time. The turn from engaged to engaging research methodologies described in the book is strongly rooted in the tradition of the philosophy of praxis and the theory of social practices, from Aristotle, through Marxist theories, to contemporary participatory action research. Today, however, the practical approach in the humanities takes on particular importance in the context of the so-called ontological turn. The book tries to answer the question whether cultural studies based on the category of practice has a chance to be a new form of critical thinking under the conditions of post-anthropocentric humanities.
