Between Men

English Literature and Male Homosocial Desire

door Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick ...

Serie series Gender and Culture Series
First published in 1985, Between Men was a decisive intervention in gender studies, a book that all but singlehandedly dislodged a tradition of literary critique that suppressed queer subjects and subjectivities.

Slavery and the Culture of Taste

door Simon Gikandi ...

It would be easy to assume that, in the eighteenth century, slavery and the culture of taste--the world of politeness, manners, and aesthetics--existed as separate and unequal domains, unrelated in the spheres of social life. But to the contrary, Slavery and the Culture of Taste demonstrates that these two areas of modernity were surprisingly entwined. Ranging across Britain, the antebellum South, ... Meer lezen

This book traces the word's eventful history from its 1754 coinage into the twentieth century--chronicling along the way much of what we now call the natural ... Meer lezen

Novel Objects in Eighteenth-Century England

door Julie Park ...

Objects we traditionally regard as "mere" imitations of the human—dolls, automata, puppets—proliferated in eighteenth-century England's rapidly expanding market culture. During the same period, there arose a literary genre called "the novel" that turned the experience of life into a narrated object of psychological plausibility.

Melville’s Philosophies

Bewerkt door Professor Branka Arsic, Dr. K. L. Evans ...

Melville's Philosophies departs from a long tradition of critical assessments of Melville that dismissed his philosophical capacities as ingenious but muddled. Its contributors do not apply philosophy to Melville in order to detect just how much of it he knew or understood. To the contrary, they try to hear the philosophical arguments themselves-often very strange and quite radical-that Melville ... Meer lezen
