Автор: Claxton Mae Miller, Eichelberger Julia Название: Teaching the Works of Eudora Welty: Twenty-First-Century Approaches ISBN: 1496814630 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781496814630 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 29260.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Too often Eudora Welty is known to the general public as Miss Welty, a “perfect lady” who wrote affectionate portraits of her home region. Yet recent scholarship has amply demonstrated a richer complexity. Welty was an innovative artist with cosmopolitan sensibilities and progressive politics, a woman who maintained close friendships with artists and intellectuals throughout the world, a writer as unafraid to experiment as she was to level her pen at the worst human foibles. The essays collected in Teaching the Works of Eudora Welty seek to move Welty beyond a discussion of region and reflect new scholarship that remaps her work onto a larger canvas. The book offers ways to help twenty-first-century readers navigate Welty’s challenging and intricate narratives. It provides answers to questions many teachers will have: Why should I study a writer who documents white privilege? Why should I give this “regional” writer space on an already crowded syllabus? Why should I teach Welty if I do not study the South? How can I help my students make sense of her modernist narratives? How can Welty’s texts help me teach my students about literary theory, about gender and disability, about cultures and societies with which my students are unfamiliar?

Автор: Sevinc Turukkan, David Damrosch Название: Approaches to Teaching the Works of Orhan Pamuk ISBN: 1603293191 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781603293198 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 26790.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2006, Orhan Pamuk is Turkey’s preeminent novelist and internationally recognized figure of letters. Influenced by both Turkish and European literature, his works interrogate problems of modernity and of East and West in the Turkish context and incorporate the Ottoman legacy linguistically and thematically. The stylistic and thematic aspects of his novels, his intriguing use of intertextual elements, and his characters’ metatextual commentaries make his work rewarding in courses on world literature and on the postmodern novel. Pamuk’s nonfiction writings extend his themes of memory, loss, personal and political histories, and the craft of the novel.Part 1, ‘Materials’, provides biographical background and introduces instructors to translations and critical scholarship that will elucidate Pamuk’s works. In part 2, ‘Approaches’, essays cover topics that support teachers in a range of classrooms, including Pamuk’s use of the Turkish language, the political background to Pamuk’s novels, the politics of translation and aesthetics, and Pamuk’s works as world literature.

Автор: Andrea Tarnowski Название: Approaches to Teaching the Works of Christine de Pizan ISBN: 1603293272 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781603293273 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 30930.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: A prolific poet and a protofeminist, Christine de Pizan worked within a sophisticated late medieval court culture and formed an identity as an authority on her society's preoccupations with religion, politics, and morality. Her works address various aspects of misogyny, the appropriate actions of rulers, and the ethical framework for social conduct. In addition to gaining a readership in fifteenth-century France, Christine's works influenced writers in Tudor England and were identified by twentieth-century readers as important contributions to both the emergence of a professional literary class and to the intellectual climate that gave rise to early modern Europe.Part 1 of this volume, ""Materials,"" surveys the editions in Middle French, translations into modern French and English, and the many scholarly resources and critical reactions of the past fifty years. Part 2, ""Approaches,"" provides insights into various aspects of Christine's works that can be explored with students, from considerations of genre and form to the themes of virtue, history, and memory. Teachers of French, English, world literature, and women's studies will find useful ideas throughout the volume.

Автор: Michal Ginsbug, Bradley Stephens Название: Approaches to Teaching Hugo`s Les Miserables ISBN: 1603293361 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781603293365 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 30930.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: The greatest work of one of France's greatest writers, Victor Hugo's Les Misérables seemed stylistically and even politically out of date when it was published in 1862. But its indictment of injustice, concern for those suffering in misery, unapologetic embrace of the ideals of the French Revolution, and memorable characters have proved irresistible to readers for a century and a half. The novel's length, multiple narratives, and encyclopedic digressiveness make it a pleasure to read but a challenge to teach, and this volume is designed to address the needs of instructors in a variety of courses that include the novel in excerpts or as a whole.Part 1 of the volume, ""Materials,"" provides guidance on editions in French and in English translation, biographies, criticism, and maps. Part 2, ""Approaches,"" contains essays that discuss the novel's conceptions of misère, sexuality, and the politics of the time and that demonstrate techniques for teaching the context of its literary market, adaptations, place in popular culture, and relation to other novels of its time.
