    par Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick ...

  • Slavery and the Culture of Taste

    par 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, ... En savoir plus

  • When Blackness Rhymes with Blackness

    par Rowan Ricardo Phillips ...
    Collections series Dalkey Archive Scholarly
    In When Blackness Rhymes with Blackness, Rowan Ricardo Phillips pushes African American poetry to its limits by unraveling “our desire to think of African American poetry as African American poetry.” Phillips reads African American poetry as inherently allegorical and thus “a successful shorthand for the survival of a poetry but unsuccessful shorthand for the sustenance of its poems.” Arguing in ...

  • The Self and It

    Novel Objects in Eighteenth-Century England

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 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 ... En savoir plus

  • Literature, Language, and the Rise of the Intellectual Disciplines in Britain, 1680–1820

    par Robin Valenza ...
    The divide between the sciences and the humanities, which often seem to speak entirely different languages, has its roots in the way intellectual disciplines developed in the long eighteenth century. As various fields of study became defined and to some degree professionalized, their ways of communicating evolved into an increasingly specialist vocabulary. Chemists, physicists, philosophers, and ... En savoir plus
