Подзаголовок: Melville`s narratives of facts
Рейтинг:
Поставляется из: Англии
Описание:

The narrative of facts—probably best exemplified in the literature of exploration—was an immensely popular genre in mid-nineteenth-century America. In White Lies, John Samson offers full contextual readings of Melvilles five major narratives of facts—Typee, Omoo, Redburn, White-Jacket, and Israel Potter. Samson demonstrates that in these novels Melville critically rewrote the sources on which he drew, in effect making the genre itself a subject of his writing.

In his introduction, Samson discusses Melvilles knowledge of the genre and its ideology. He then reads each novel in terms of Melvilles confrontation with its sources. In each, Samson says, an unreliable narrator represents particular ideological tendencies in Melvilles sources. Melville heightens and extends these tendencies, exposes the contradictions and biases within them, and ends by showing the narrator evading or denying experiences that conflict with his ideology. According to Samson, Melville sees the concept of historical progress as the basis of these biases and evasions.

In these five novels, Melville reveals the conflict between democratic, humanitarian, and individualistic principles, on the one hand, and the forces of racial superiority, religious bigotry, economic determinism, and political conservatism, on the other. Taken together, Samson asserts, these novels deconstruct the intellectual foundations of the form of historical narration endorsed by white patriarchal culture.

Scholars and students of nineteenth-century American literature, specialists in the novel, and other readers of Melville will welcome Samsons provocative reinterpretation of these key works in American culture.

Pollen`s Women: The Art of Samson Pollen

Описание:

POLLEN'S WOMEN is a lush visual archive collecting some of artist Samson Pollen's most memorable pieces, selected from the hundreds of jaw-dropping illustrations Pollen provided for men's adventure magazines (MAMs) from the 1950s through the 1970s. Sexy women were a regular component of story illustrations published in the more than 160 MAM titles that flourished from the early 1950s through the mid-1970s, and nobody painted beautiful and dangerous femmes like Pollen. Much of the artist's work--literally, hundreds of pieces--saw print in the Atlas/Diamond group of MAMs from Marvel Comics founder Martin Goodman's Magazine Management Company. Until now, almost none of these illustrations have seen print since their original publication in those latter-day pulps. POLLEN'S WOMEN collects the artist's sexiest and most lethal female portraits in a deluxe hardcover edition, with an autobiographical introduction by the artist. Edited by Robert Deis and Wyatt Doyle for The Men's Adventure Library.

Описание:

Samson Pollen (1931-2018) was one of the greatest illustration artists whose work appeared in vintage men's adventure magazines (MAMs) from the 1950s to the 1970s . Pollen's specialty was action--dynamic, explosive, outrageous action. Illustrating work from authors Mario Puzo, Martin Cruz Smith, Richard Stark, Norman Mailer, Ed McBain, Richard Wright, Don Pendleton, Erskine Caldwell, Walter Kaylin, Robert F. Dorr, Pollen's immersive illustrations transported adventure-hungry readers from tropical jungles to brutal battlefields to raging seas and mean city streets. Samson Pollen painted it all--spectacularly.

The Men's Adventure Library follows the first-ever collection of Samson Pollen's illustrations, Pollen's Women, with Pollen's Action, a deluxe new volume collecting the cream of Pollen's high-octane action paintings. Includes history and commentary by the editors and an introductory essay by the artist.

Описание: Three thousand years ago, Samson lived alongside an intelligent, technologically advanced, small nation, known as Philistia. Their leaders came up against a superhero with Asperger's Syndrome. It took tactics to place the strong man and considerable plotting to remove him, and the strategies didn't end there. What starts as a how-done-it, for those who think they know what happens, soon becomes a who-done-it. Based closely on historical sources, the key character is not Samson; it is the clever, charismatic, Mayor of Gaza. As the tale flares up from youthful gaming to political ploys, comic, tragic, battle, and romantic scenes unfold, leaving you guessing throughout and smiling at the end. ""Samson and Delilah: an old story reinvigorated by a contemporary retelling Bryan Winters has created a real page turner with his rich characterizations of the major players we have all heard of, while he complements these with an infilling of hitherto unknown characters who surprise and excite us, bringing new dimensions to the reading experience."" --John Long, Managing Director at RCG ""As a careful archeologist might pry loose an enlightening hidden treasure, so has Bryan Winters' research brought this story out of its repose. Deep in the pages of what some might term a mysterious document, this is a finely crafted tale, made possible for the eye and mind of today's readers. It caused me to ponder how difficult we make it for the creator, and how beyond our reasoning is the logic of his ways."" --Graham William Yearsley, founder, former CEO at Waterware Services Ltd, NZ ""A remarkable work of historical fiction, based on Israel and Philistia of 3,200 years ago. In a refreshing, modern style, with a subtle touch of humor, Bryan Winters brings to life this ancient story of Samson, his extraordinary strength, and his youthful, human failings. His power of descriptive detail adeptly transports us into the period, and we become completely absorbed as we witness Delilah's seduction and betrayal, and Samson's destruction of the pagan temple. This action thriller has everything--drama, political and commercial intrigue, spying, sound psychological insights, romance. . . . A great story, expertly told."" --George Bryant, author and publisher ""Bryan Winters quickly draws you into this intriguing historic novel; a reimagining of the classic tale of flawed Nazarite hero Samson, and his risky and risque life and legendary death. The writer populates place, time, and culture with solid research and his characters come alive through crisp storytelling. It had me from page one."" --Keith Newman, author of Bible & Treaty and Beyond Betrayal Bryan Winters is a New Zealander who has lived and worked around the world as a teacher and IT advisor. He is the author of The Bishop, the Mullah, and the Smartphone (2015).

Описание: This book presents a new interpretation of the co-monarchy of Mary I and Philip II. It reclaims Mary as a great Catholic queen and fleshes out Philip`s contributions as king, exposing the sectarian historiography that has cast their reign in a negative light. An important corrective for the history of Tudor England and Habsburg Spain. -- .
