Описание: The renowned and illustrious tales of King Arthur, his knights and the Round Table pervade all European vernaculars, as well as the Latin tradition. Arthurian narrative material, which had originally been transmitted in oral culture, began to be inscribed regularly in the twelfth century, developing from (pseudo-)historical beginnings in the Latin chronicles of "historians" such as Geoffrey of Monmouth into masterful literary works like the romances of Chr tien de Troyes. Evidently a big hit, Arthur found himself being swiftly translated, adapted and integrated into the literary traditions of almost every European vernacular during the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. This Handbook seeks to showcase the European character of Arthurian romance both past and present.By working across national philological boundaries, which in the past have tended to segregate the study of Arthurian romance according to language, as well as by exploring primary texts from different vernaculars and the Latin tradition in conjunction with recent theoretical concepts and approaches, this Handbook brings together a pioneering and more complete view of the specifically European context of Arthurian romance, and promotes the more connected study of Arthurian literature across the entirety of its European context.

Автор: Busby, Shelly, Colorado Springs, Colorado Springs Название: Girl who walked in the shadow of the king ISBN: 1949021319 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781949021318 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 16890.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание:
There once was a girl who walked in the shadow of a King. Not that she realized it. Not at first, anyway.
For many years she suspected she was quite alone. Abandoned. Unloved. With her idyllic childhood shattered by divorce and abuse, Shelly believed there was no one watching over her.
And then she discovered a truth so powerful that nothing would ever be the same: Not past memories. Not current relationships. And certainly not Shelly's life from that point forward.
In this moving memoir, Shelly explores woundedness and redemption from an unexpected perspective.
The world she describes is rich and raw, and her poignant story will resonate with anyone who has ever felt life twist out of control until they cried out, God, where are you?
The answer, when you finally see it, changes, well... everything.
Автор: Brian Busby Название: Heart Accepts It All: Selected Letters of John Glassco ISBN: 1550653407 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781550653403 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 28530.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Decades after his death, John Glassco remains Canadas most enigmatic literary figure, and this collection draws back the curtain on this self-described "great practitioner of deceit". Collected here are the few surviving letters from his youthful adventures in France and three previously unpublished poems. Among his correspondents were Maurice Girodias, F R Scott, A J M Smith, Ralph Gustafson, Leon Edel and Margaret Atwood. The delight he took in revealing his many literary hoaxes to friends, and the scorn he had for literary fashion is apparent. The letters reflect his convictions about literature, other writers, and his own talent, while documenting struggles with publishers, pirates, and censors. Born into one of Montreals wealthiest families, Glassco turned his back on privilege for a life in letters; yet at age 18 -- having been published in Paris -- his voice suddenly went silent. His unexpected return to the literary scene in 1957 coincided with the great flowering of Canadian literature. In the years that followed, he produced a unique body of work that encompasses poetry, memoir, translation, and several best-selling books of pornography.

Families in market economies have long been confronted by the demands of participating in paid work and providing care. Across Europe the social, economic and political environment within which families do so has been subject to substantial change in the post-World War II era and governments have come under increasing pressure to engage with this important area of public policy. In the UK, as elsewhere, the tensions which lie at the heart of the paid work/unpaid care conflict remain unresolved posing substantial difficulties for all of law's subjects both as carers and as the recipients of care. What seems like a relatively simple goal - to enable families to better balance care-giving and paid employment - has been subject to and shaped by shifting priorities over time leading to a variety of often conflicting policy approaches. This book critiques how working families in the UK have been subject to regulation. It aims to: - Chart the development of the UK's law and policy framework by focusing on the post-war era and the growth and decline of the welfare state with a longer historical trajectory considered where appropriate.
- Suggest an alternative policy approach based on Martha Fineman's vulnerability theory in which the vulnerable subject replaces the liberal subject as the focus of legal intervention. This reorientation enables a more inclusive and cohesive policy approach and has great potential to contribute to the reconciliation of the unresolved conflict between paid work and care-giving.
