A History of Romantic Literature

Autor: Frederick Burwick
Frederick Burwick
Data wydania: 2019
Historical Narrative Offers Introduction to Romanticism by Placing Key Figures in Overall Social Context Going beyond the general literary survey, A History of Romantic Literature examines the literatures of sensibility and intensity as well as the aesthetic dimensions of horror and terror, sublimity and ecstasy, by providing a richly integrated account of shared themes, interests, innovations, rivalries and disputes among the writers of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Drawing from the assemblage theory, Prof. Burwick maintains that the literature of the period is inseparable from prevailing economic conditions and ongoing political and religious turmoil, as well as developments in physics, astronomy, music and art. Thus, rather than deal with

Adulthood in Children's Literature

Autor: Associate Professor Vanessa Joosen
Vanessa Joosen
Data wydania: 2020
While most scholars who study children's books are pre-occupied with the child characters and adult mediators, Vanessa Joosen re-positions the lens to focus on the under-explored construction of adulthood in children's literature. Adulthood in Children's Literature demonstrates how books for young readers evoke adulthood as a stage in life, enacted by adult characters, and in relationship with the construction of childhood. Employing age studies as a framework for analysis, this book covers a range of English and Dutch children's books published from 1970 to the present. Calling upon critical voices like Elisabeth Young-Bruehl, Margaret Morganroth Gullette, Peter Hollindale, Maria Nikolajeva and Lorraine Green, and the works of such authors as Babette Cole, Philip

Embodied

Autor: William Cohen
Data wydania: 2008
What does it mean to be human? British writers in the Victorian period found a surprising answer to this question. What is human, they discovered, is nothing more or less than the human body itself. In literature of the period, as well as in scientific writing and journalism, the notion of an interior human essence came to be identified with the material existence of the body. The organs of sensory perception were understood as crucial routes of exchange between the interior and the external worlds. Anatomizing Victorian ideas of the human, William A. Cohen considers the meaning of sensory encounters in works by writers including Charles Dickens, Charlotte Bronte, Anthony Trollope, Thomas Hardy, and Gerard Manley Hopkins. Rather than regarding the bodily exterior as

English Biography in the Seventeenth Century

Autor: Allan Pritchard
Data wydania: 2005
Although biography is one of today's most flourishing literary genres, its early history has attracted much less attention than that of other forms, a neglect that is especially apparent in the case of the formative period of English biography, the seventeenth century. This new work by Allan Pritchard fills the scholarly void by providing a wide-ranging and comprehensive survey of this period's biographical writings. After charting the growth of seventeenth-century biographical writing, Pritchard explores the ways in which traditional forms of religious biography and lives of princes and other secular figures were adapted to, and transformed by, the crises and revolutions of the period. He then considers the development of less traditional biographical types and

Autor: Luz-Maria Linder
Data wydania: 1998
Die Arbeit untersucht Goethes Bibelrezeption unter besonderer Berücksichtigung hermeneutischer Fragestellungen. Analysiert werden die Reflexionen des Dichters zu Formen und Funktionen ästhetischen Lesens, wobei einige Beschreibungskategorien der literaturwissenschaftlichen Rezeptionstheorie zu entnehmen sind. Die Bibellektüre fiktionaler Charaktere ist Gegenstand des zweiten Schwerpunktes. Zu klären ist, inwiefern die in Dichtung und Wahrheit , den Leiden des jungen Werther und Faust I an den Hauptfiguren vorgeführten Rezeptionsmodi von psychischen Dispositionen und Selbstbehauptungszwängen abhängig sind. Goethes alttestamentliche Geschichtsparaphrasen, Gegenstand des dritten Schwerpunktes, weisen säkularisierende, stilisierende und aktualisierende Gestaltungstendenzen

Narratives of Nothing in 20th-Century Literature

Autor: Dr. Meghan Vicks
Meghan Vicks
Data wydania: 2015
The concept of nothing was an enduring concern of the 20th century. As Martin Heidegger and Jean-Paul Sartre each positioned nothing as inseparable from the human condition and essential to the creation or operation of human existence, as Jacques Derrida demonstrated how all structures are built upon a nothing within the structure, and as mathematicians argued that zero - the number that is also not a number - allows for the creation of our modern mathematical system, Narratives of Nothing in 20th-Century Literature suggests that nothing itself enables the act of narration. Focusing on the literary works of Vladimir Nabokov, Samuel Beckett, and Victor Pelevin, Meghan Vicks traces how and why these writers give narrative form to nothing, demonstrating that nothing is

Polish Formalist School & Russian Formalism

Autor: Andrzej Karcz
Data wydania: 2004
This study looks closely at the changes taking place in Polish literary scholarship at the turn of the century, and focuses on the work of the founder of Polish Formalism, Kazimierz Woycicki and the other main theoreticians and practitioners of this School. While presenting a comparative and contrasting approach to Polish and Russian Formalism, the study concentrates on how the ideas of the Russian Formalists were accepted and applied by the Polish School, which modified and transcended them. Special attention is paid to Woycicki's original definition of the subject of literary study. The two schools of literary criticism, while dealing with the same problems of analysis, did not always propose similar solutions. By modifying the ideas of Russian Formalism, the
