Описание: "The role of the critic," Daniel Mendelsohn writes, "is to mediate intelligently and stylishly between a work and its audience; to educate and edify in an engaging and, preferably, entertaining way." His latest collection exemplifies the range, depth, and erudition that have made him "required reading for anyone interested in dissecting culture" (The Daily Beast). In Ecstasy and Terror, Mendelsohn once again casts an eye at literature, film, television, and the personal essay, filtering his insights through his training as a scholar of classical antiquity in illuminating and sometimes surprising ways. Many of these essays look with fresh eyes at our culture's Greek and Roman models: some find an arresting modernity in canonical works (Bacchae, the Aeneid), while others detect a "Greek DNA" in our responses to national traumas such as the Boston Marathon bombings and the assassination of JFK. There are pieces on contemporary literature, from the "aesthetics of victimhood" in Hanya Yanagihara's A Little Life to the uncomfortable mixture of art and autobiography in novels by Henry Roth, Ingmar Bergman, and Karl Ove Knausgård. Mendelsohn considers pop culture, too, in essays on the feminism of Game of Thrones and on recent films about artificial intelligence--a subject, he reminds us, that was already of interest to Homer. This collection also brings together for the first time a number of the award-winning memoirist's personal essays, including his "critic's manifesto" and a touching reminiscence of his boyhood correspondence with the historical novelist Mary Renault, who inspired him to study the Classics.

Автор: Mendelsohn Charles Jastrow Название: Studies in the Word-Play of Plautus: I. The Name-Play, II. The Use of Single Words in a Double Meaning ISBN: 1097417034 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781097417032 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 12590.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Word-play has long been recognized as one of Plautus' principal methods for arousing laughter, and every commentator has been at more or less pains to point out the passages in which this device is used. Just how much effect word-plays have in making Plautus what he is cannot be determined until the subject of Plautine humor is given a thorough investigation, and the various methods for arousing laughter are carefully analyzed and compared. It requires, however, only a casual reading of our author to learn that here, as in the case of Shakespeare, we have to do with a writer who does not use word-plays occasionally, but constantly, and relies to a great extent on this form of the comic. A recent editor of the Mostellaria exaggerates but slightly when he says that Plautus is "copious in quip and pun until quip and pun grow wearisome."It would seem well worth while, then, to collect the Plautine word-plays and put them together, so as to see at a glance just how and to what extent Plautus does employ them. A work of this kind must involve first of all the actual collecting of the word-plays and secondly a division or classification into their various kinds. Part of this work was undertaken by O. Raebel in his "De Usu Adnominationis apud Romanorum Poetas Comicos". Raebel has collected and classified the word-plays in Plautus that may be called adnominationes or paronomasias, humorous as well as non-humorous. This is not the place to discuss the classification of the word-play in general. Raebel's classification, though it might be somewhat changed, is a good one for the adnominatio; but the best one so far proposed is that of Wurth in his Wortspiel bei Shakspere. What is important for the present purpose is the fact that Raebel has considered only the adnominationes in Plautus, with an incidental remark or two on other forms of word-play. An equally important division of the word-play, those plays in which only one word figures and in which there is no play of sound as there is in the adnominatio - perhaps an even more important class from the standpoint of humor - does not come within the scope of his investigation.The text of Goetz and Schoell has been followed in the quotations, since its closeness to the MSS. readings rendered it best for the purpose in hand. Occasionally another reading has been adopted, and such instances are always indicated.

The majority of Jewish immigrants who made their way to the United States between 1820 and 1924 arrived nearly penniless; yet today their descendants stand out as exceptionally successful. How can we explain their dramatic economic ascent?
The Rag Race argues that the Jews who flocked to the United States during the age of mass migration were aided appreciably by their association with a particular corner of the American economy: the rag trade. From humble beginnings, Jews rode the coattails of the clothing trade from the margins of economic life to a position of unusual promise and prominence, shaping both their societal status and the clothing industry as a whole.
Comparing the history of Jewish participation within the clothing trade in the United States with that of Jews in the same business in England, The Rag Race demonstrates that differences within the garment industry on either side of the Atlantic contributed to a very real divergence in social and economic outcomes for Jews in each setting.
