Описание: Deafening Modernism tells the story of modernism from the perspective of Deaf critical insight. Working to develop a critical Deaf theory independent of identity-based discourse, Rebecca Sanchez excavates the intersections between Deaf and modernist studies. She traces the ways that Deaf culture, history, linguistics, and literature provide a vital and largely untapped resource for understanding the history of American language politics and the impact that history has had on modernist aesthetic production. Discussing Deaf and disability studies in these unexpected contexts highlights the contributions the field can make to broader discussions of the intersections between images, bodies, and text. Drawing on a range of methodological approaches, including literary analysis and history, linguistics, ethics, and queer, cultural, and film studies, Sanchez sheds new light on texts by T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, Gertrude Stein, William Carlos Williams, Charlie Chaplin, and many others. By approaching modernism through the perspective of Deaf and disability studies, Deafening Modernism reconceptualizes deafness as a critical modality enabling us to freshly engage topics we thought we knew.

Hefner Название: The Word on the Streets: The American Language of Vernacular Modernism ISBN: 0813940400 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780813940403 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 72310.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: From the hard-boiled detective stories of Dashiell Hammett to the novels of Claude McKay, The Word on the Streets examines a group of writers whose experimentation with the vernacular argues for a rethinking of American modernism—one that cuts across traditional boundaries of class, race, and ethnicity.The dawn of the modernist era witnessed a transformation of popular writing that demonstrated an experimental practice rooted in the language of the streets. Emerging alongside more recognized strands of literary modernism, the vernacular modernism these writers exhibited lays bare the aesthetic experiments inherent in American working-class and ethnic language, forging an alternative pathway for American modernist practice.Brooks Hefner shows how writers across a variety of popular genres—from Gertrude Stein and Williams Faulkner to humorist Anita Loos and ethnic memoirist Anzia Yezierska—employed street slang to mount their own critique of genteel realism and its classist emphasis on dialect hierarchies, the result of which was a form of American experimental writing that resonated powerfully across the American cultural landscape of the 1910s and 1920s.

Автор: Czaplinski, Przemyslaw Название: Remnants of modernity ISBN: 3631629249 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783631629246 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 63750.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Polish culture after 1989 has been defined by conflicts surrounding the remnants of modernity, phenomena marginalised during communism. The book considers two such phenomena: the search for a common tradition and the disappearance of utopia. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, romanticism provided a common tradition. After 1989, its place was assumed by Sarmatism, an elite and xenophobic pre-modern cultural formation, into which contradictory values were introduced, creating an explosive mixture of emancipation and populism. The second remnant, the heritage of utopia, is addressed in works whose critical visions of change are not comprehensive projects, but rather rebellions. They begin with a questioning of authority, and lead to a posthuman definition of humanity and interspecies solidarity.
Автор: Bolecki, Wlodzimierz Название: World apart by gustaw herling ISBN: 3631629214 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783631629215 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 78710.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Gustaw Herling’s A World Apart is one of the most important books about Soviet camps and communist ideology in the Stalinist period. First published in English in 1951 and translated into many languages, it was relatively unknown till Solzhenitsyn’s The Gulag Archipelago in the 1970s. However, the narrative of the author’s experience in the Jertsevo gulag was highly appreciated by Bertrand Russell, Albert Camus, Jorge Semprun and others. In this first monograph on Herling’s fascinating life, Bolecki discusses hitherto unknown documents from the writer’s archive in Naples. His insight into the subject and poetics of Herling’s book and the account of its remarkable reception offer readers an intriguing profile of one of the most compelling witnesses of the 20th century.
Автор: Witalisz, Alicja Название: English loan translations in polish ISBN: 3631663609 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783631663608 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 89570.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This volume on language contact is a corpus-based descriptive and theoretical study of the Polish translations of English one- and multi-word polymorphemic expressions. The formation of loan translations is unique among strategies in lexical development as it involves three processes: borrowing, word-formation and semantic change. The study explores morphosyntactic, semantic and extralinguistic issues in the context of set expressions that are loan translated from a foreign language. It offers a typology of loan translations, loan identification criteria as well as a dictionary of over 500 loan translations from the English language.
Автор: Rataj, Maciej Название: Attitudes to standard british english and standard polish ISBN: 3631659628 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783631659625 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 78710.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The book provides a new insight into English-Polish comparative sociolinguistics by comparing and contrasting the attitudes of young adult native speakers of British English and Polish towards the standard varieties of their mother tongues. The author reviews the Anglophone and Polish approaches to standard dialects and language standardization, integrating sociolinguistics, normative linguistics and prescriptivism. The core of the work presents and analyses the results of a questionnaire-based study of language attitudes conducted at several Polish and British universities. In conclusion, the author places the two groups of informants on a spectrum of language attitudes ranging from purism to tolerance of non-standard varieties.
Автор: Robert Kieltyka Название: Various Faces of Animal Metaphor in English and Polish ISBN: 363166513X ISBN-13(EAN): 9783631665138 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 78710.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This book is dedicated to the issue of animal metaphor together with its intricacies and internal complexity. Its main objective is to present a unified picture of the role animal terms have played in the shape of English and other natural languages. The author addresses such aspects of animal metaphor as the problem of animal names used as surnames, so-called verbal and adjectival zoosemy, or the use of names of animal body parts with reference to people. The cognitively-oriented analysis is carried out in terms of the Conceptual Metaphor Theory, which is capable of accounting for semantic change in a panchronic perspective. The results show that virtually any facet of humanity, which is beyond the norm, may be viewed, perceived, conceived of and expressed in animal terms.
Автор: Agata Araszkiewicz Название: La revolution oubliee: L`emergence d`une ecriture feminine polonaise dans l`entre-deux-guerres ISBN: 3631634471 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783631634479 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 59530.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Aniela Gruszecka, Irena Krzywicka, Wanda Melcer, Pola Gojawiczynska... Voici les noms des femmes inconnues en France et peu connues en Pologne, les noms « a l’accent », a la sonorite exotique. Le travail d’Agata Araszkiewicz montre que ces femmes-ecrivaines de l’entre-deux-guerres sont les precurseurs de l’ecriture feminine. Leur ecriture tant sous-estimee represente en fait la place de l’imaginaire feminin veritablement revolutionnaire. Il s’agit la d’interroger le cadre de notre modernite, mais aussi, de savoir si on peut avoir du plaisir a frequenter ces textes des femmes. (Professeur Agnieszka Grudzinska, Les Etudes Slaves, Sorbonne Paris IV (France)) Araszkiewicz amene une nouvelle perspective sur l’uvre des femmes-ecrivaines en Pologne. Son travail est base sur l’acquis de la critique litteraire aussi bien francaise, sous le signe de « l’ecriture feminine » (H.Cixous, L.Irigaray, J.Kristeva), qu’outre-Atlantique (S. Gilbert, S. Gubar, N. K. Miller, E. Showalter). L’auteure analyse les relations entre le discours de l’emancipation et l’esthetique du roman, la signification des themes homosexuels ou encore les questions du langage et de la textualite du corps. Elle propose des interpretations creatives de textes, expliquant leur absence du canon litteraire officiel et les raisons du denigrement de la valeur esthetique des uvres des femmes qu’on « ne savait pas lire ». (Professeur Krystyna Klosinska, Le departement des Lettres Modernes, Universite de Silesie (Pologne)).
