Автор: Park Stephen M. Название: The Pan American Imagination: Contested Visions of the Hemisphere in Twentieth-Century Literature ISBN: 0813936667 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780813936666 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 30490.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: In the history of the early twentieth-century Americas, visions of hemispheric unity flourished, and the notion of a transnational American identity was embraced by artists, intellectuals, and government institutions. In The Pan American Imagination, Stephen Park explores the work of several Pan American modernists who challenged the body of knowledge being produced about Latin America, crossing the disciplinary boundaries of academia as well as the formal boundaries of artistic expression - from literary texts and travel writing to photography, painting, and dance. Park invests in an interdisciplinary approach, which he frames as a politically resistant intellectual practice, using it not only to examine the historical phenomenon of Pan Americanism but also to explore the implications for current transnational scholarship.

Автор: Cowart David Название: Literary Symbiosis: The Reconfigured Text in Twentieth-Century Writing ISBN: 0820341223 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780820341224 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 24030.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Usually literary borrowings are so integrated into the new work as to be disguised; however, according to David Cowart, the last decades of the twentieth century saw an increasing number of texts that attached themselves to their sources in seemingly parasitic—but, more accurately, symbiotic—dependence. It is this kind of mutuality that Cowart examines in his wide-ranging and richly provocative study Literary Symbiosis..In works exhibiting literary symbiosis, Cowart notes, intertextuality surrenders its usual veil of near invisibility to become concrete and explicit—a phenomenon that Cowart sees as part of the postmodern tendency toward self-consciousness and self-reflexivity. He recognizes that literary symbiosis has some close cousins and so limits his compass to works that are genuine reinterpretations, writings that cast a new light on earlier works through ""some tangible measure of formal or thematic evolution, whether on the part of the guest alone or the host and guest together."" Proceeding from this intriguing premise, he offers detailed readings of texts that range from Auden's ""The Sea and the Mirror,"" based on The Tempest, to Valerie Martin's reworking of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde as Mary Reilly, to various fictions based on Robinson Crusoe. He also considers, in Nabokov's Pale Fire, a compelling example of text and parasitic-text within a single work..Drawing on and responding to the ideas of disparate thinkers and critics—among them Freud, Lacan, Derrida, Harold Bloom, Hillis Miller, and Henry Louis Gates Jr.—Cowart discusses literary symbiosis as Oedipal drama, as reading and misreading, as deconstruction, as Signifying, and as epistemic dialogue. Although his main examples come from the contemporary period, he refers to works dating back to the classical era in a range of genres. The study of literary symbiosis, Cowart contends, can reveal much about the dynamics of literary renewal in every age. If all literature redeems the familiar, he suggests, literary symbiosis redeems the familiar in literature itself.

Описание: A History of Twentieth-Century American Women`s Poetry explores the genealogy of modern American verse by women from the early twentieth century to the millennium. Beginning with an extensive introduction that charts important theoretical contributions to the field, this History includes wide-ranging essays that illuminate the legacy of American women poets.
In the beginning there was . . . the beginning. And with the beginning came the power to tell a story. Few book-length studies of narrative beginnings exist, and not one takes a feminist perspective. Opening Acts reveals the important role of beginnings as moments of discursive authority with power and agency that have been appropriated by writers from historically marginalized groups. Catherine Romagnolo argues for a critical awareness of how social identity plays a role in the strategic use and critical interpretation of narrative beginnings.
The twentieth-century U.S. women writers whom Romagnolo studies—Edith Wharton, H.D., Toni Morrison, Julia Alvarez, and Amy Tan—have seized the power to disrupt conventional structures of authority and undermine historical master narratives of marriage, motherhood, U.S. nationhood, race, and citizenship. Using six of their novels as points of entry, Romagnolo illuminates the ways in which beginnings are potentially subversive, thereby disrupting the reinscription of hierarchically gendered and racialized conceptions of authorship and agency.
