Описание: In the summer of 1858, in a garden behind Christ Church in Oxford, Charles Dodgson--better known by his pseudonym Lewis Carroll--dressed the six-year-old Alice Liddell in ragamuffin's clothes, and then snapped the camera's shutter. In The Alice Behind Wonderland, Simon Winchester uses the famous photograph of Alice as the launching pad for an appreciative energetic and penetrating look at the inspiration behind, and the making of, one of the greatest classics of children's literature. Indeed, Winchester shows that Dodgson's love of photography deeply influenced his view of the world, helping to transform this shy and half-deaf mathematician into one of the world's best-loved observers of childhood. Much like the fictional Alice's world, as the photograph is subject to closer examination, 'Alice Liddell as The Beggar Maid' becomes curiouser and curiouser, capturing a moment during a golden afternoon that would endure forever. 'Alice Liddell as The Beggar Maid' was, in short, the muse that would inspire the creation of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland . Deftly engaging with Dogson's published writings, private diaries, and photography, Winchester weaves together the poignant, turbulent, and entirely fascinating story behind Lewis Carroll and the making of his Alice.

Описание: On a summer's day in 1858, in a garden behind Christ Church College in Oxford, Charles Dodgson, a lecturer in mathematics, photographed six-year-old Alice Liddell, the daughter of the college dean, with a Thomas Ottewill Registered Double Folding camera, recently purchased in London.
Simon Winchester deftly uses the resulting image--as unsettling as it is famous, and the subject of bottomless speculation--as the vehicle for a brief excursion behind the lens, a focal point on the origins of a classic work of English literature. Dodgson's love of photography framed his view of the world and was partly responsible for transforming a shy and half-deaf mathematician into one of the world's best-loved observers of childhood. Little wonder that there is more to "Alice Liddell as the Beggar Maid" than meets the eye. Using Dodgson's published writings, private diaries, and of course his photographic portraits, Winchester gently exposes the development of Lewis Carroll and the making of his Alice.

Описание: Is it possible (or desirable) to live without illusions? Can artistry assist in the project of forging a unified self? What does our use of metaphor have to do with who we are? In this groundbreaking study, Joshua Landy explores Proust`s original and sophisticated answers to these and related questions. At the same time, he asks why Proust chose to embed his theories within a work of fiction-one, indeed, in which the narrator`s claims cannot always betrusted-rather than a straightforward treatise. What we stand to gain, it turns out, from reading Proust`s philosophical narrative is something far more than a new way of thinking: it is also, and more importantly, a new way of living. Provocative and illuminating, Philosophy as Fiction transforms the way wethink about the relationship between philosophy, literature, and life.

Описание: This book examines the interdisciplinary foundations of pragmatismfrom a literary perspective, tracing the characters and settings that populatethe narratives of pragmatist thought in Henry James’s work. Cultivated during apostwar era of industrial change and economic growth, pragmatism emerged in thelate nineteenth century as the new shape of American intellectual identity.Charles Peirce, William James, and Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. were closefriends who founded different branches of pragmatism while writing on a vastarray of topics. Skeptical about philosophy, William James’s brother, Henry,stood at the margins of this group, crafting his own version of pragmatism throughhis novels and short stories. Gregory Phipps argues that James’s fiction weavestogether the varied depictions of individuality, society, experience, and truthfound in the works of Peirce, Holmes, and William James. By doing so, Jamesbrings to narrative life a defining moment in American intellectual andmaterial history.
