Описание: While much has been written about the impact of Darwin`s theories on US culture, and scholarly collections have been devoted to the science of evolution, few have addressed Darwin`s theories as a cultural force affecting US writers. This book fills this gap, featuring critical approaches that examine US textual responses to Darwin`s works.
Описание: This volume suggests that reading and writing about literature are ways to gain an ethical understanding of how we live in the world. It sets out to show through a reading of stories from the Bible, that violence imposed on gender, race and the body-politic are not new to the postmodern world.

Описание: Kent Puckett`s Narrative Theory offers readers an introduction to the field`s key figures, methods and ideas, and it also reveals that field as unexpectedly central to the history of ideas by providing an account of a methodology of narrative increasingly central to literary studies, film studies, history, psychology and beyond.
Death, Men and Modernism argues that the figure of the dead man becomes a locus of attention and a symptom of crisis in British writing of the early to mid-twentieth century. While Victorian writers used dying women to dramatize aesthetic, structural, and historical concerns, modernist novelists turned to the figure of the dying man to exemplify concerns about both masculinity and modernity. Along with their representations of death, these novelists developed new narrative techniques to make the trauma they depicted palpable. Contrary to modernist genealogies, the emergence of the figure of the dead man in texts as early as Thomas Hardy's Jude theObscure suggests that World War I intensified-but did not cause-these anxieties. This book elaborates a nodal point which links death, masculinity, and modernity long before the events of World War I.

Описание: The Kam language of China possesses fifteen tones – more than any other language. Yet it has long been neglected as an area of research, especially from the perspective of discourse analysis. This study initiates the exploration of the interface between grammar and discourse by examining various aspects of Kam narrative discourse, and using a functional approach to reveal its structural properties. It also introduces the mechanism for phonological and syntactic variations, as well as classifier variants and sentence-final particles (SFPs) in discourse and word order variations. Finally, it discusses the influence of social setting on narrative structure and offers the most up-to-date ethnological and social information about the community.
