Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A treatment of 40 years of British poetry from the angle of time. We watch the wonderful helplessness of new poetics as it struggles to free itself from the chrysalis of the old. We watch the life-cycle of new ideas as they open up chaos, channel it into permanent form, and age into predictability and disillusion. We realise the strangeness of the past and go in to sample lost sounds and exotic shapes.
Book Synopsis The Regulation of Consciousness in the English Novel by : Owen Schur
Download or read book The Regulation of Consciousness in the English Novel written by Owen Schur and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining novels he considers representative of the English tradition from Austen to Woolf, Schur (English, Seton Hall U.) explores their representations of desire, power, and consciousness. He follows Lacan, but emphasizes the social more than the psychoanalytic, particularly looking at the intrusiveness of social power on individual subjectivity in the narratives. He finds that all the novels examine hierarchies of power in the social practices and social institutions by which and in which the protagonists live, and that these practices and institutions regular human desire and consciousness, especially through patriarchal power. The text is double spaced. Only names are indexed. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Book Synopsis A New Midrashic Reading of Geoffrey Chaucer by : Norman Toby Simms
Download or read book A New Midrashic Reading of Geoffrey Chaucer written by Norman Toby Simms and published by Edwin Mellen Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offers a novel interpretation of Chaucer as a "fuzzy Jew", a conflicted descendant of Conversos, who created the complex antisemitic character of the Prioress. Following a psycho-historical approach, suggests that the Prioress was raped as a child by a father-figure and that she projects the blame onto the Jews, who were demonized by her society. Associates child victimization with the alleged victimization felt by Chaucer for his own suffering as a child belonging to a group that had to conceal its identity. In view of Chaucer's putative Jewish heritage, offers kabbalistic perspectives on his work.
