Описание: John Donne`s poetry is often difficult and perplexing, even more so because it undergoes a shift away from secular topics after he converts and begins to lead a religious life. Robert Jackson`s John Donne`s Christian Vocation is one of the first studies that takes seriously the ways that Donne`s Christian vocation permeates all his writings.

Описание: Focusing on biographical portraiture, Charles Caramello argues that Henry James and Gertrude Stein performed biographical acts in two senses of the phrase: they wrote biography, but as a cover for autobiography. Constructing literary genealogies while creating original literary forms, they used their biographical portraits of precursors and contemporaries to portray themselves as exemplary modern artists. Caramello advances this argument through close readings of four works that explore themes of artistry and influence and that experiment with forms of biographical portraiture: James's early biography of Nathaniel Hawthorne and his much later group biography, <i>William Wetmore Story and His Friends</i>, and Stein's celebrated <i>Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas</i> and her largely forgotten <i>Four in America</i>, which comprises biographies of Ulysses S. Grant, Wilbur Wright, Henry James, and George Washington. The first comparative study of these two great expatriate writers, <i>Henry James, Gertrude Stein, and the Biographical Act</i> addresses questions of art, influence, and literary culture by analyzing important biographical portraits that themselves address the same questions.<BR><BR>A UNC Press Enduring Edition -- UNC Press Enduring Editions use the latest in digital technology to make available again books from our distinguished backlist that were previously out of print.

Описание: This analysis of the novels of Henry James explores his representation of children and adolescents, reaching its conclusions directly from the texts of the fiction itself. Shine examines the social and historical factors that may have affected the novelist's observations about children.

Описание:

The works of Henry Fielding, though written nearly three hundred years ago, retain their sense of comedy and innovation in the face of tradition, and they easily engage the twenty-first-century student with many aspects of eighteenth-century life: travel, inns, masquerades, political and religious factions, the �45, prisons and the legal system, gender ideals and realities, social class.

Part 1 of this volume, �Materials,� discusses the available editions of Joseph Andrews, Tom Jones, Shamela, Jonathan Wild, and Amelia; suggests useful critical and contextual works for teaching them; and recommends helpful audiovisual and electronic resources. The essays of part 2, �Approaches,� demonstrate that many of the methods and models used for one novel�the romance tradition, Fielding�s legal and journalistic writing, his techniques as a playwright, the ideas of Machiavelli�can be adapted to others.
