Book Synopsis Hankering in Literature by : Dr.G.Vinothkumar
Download or read book Hankering in Literature written by Dr.G.Vinothkumar and published by Shanlax Publications. This book was released on with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writings and Contents are not mere words. Each work has its own uniqueness and features. It tries to cover the interdisciplinary fields that are emerging in the contemporary trends of Arts and Humanities. Since 2008, the institute for English and Foreign Languages deals with the intersectionality of language and literature. It recognizes the necessity to bridge academic gaps and promote the link in English Studies. In the book chapter “Hankering in Literature”, the department presents various research papers under an umbrella term. This includes the neoteric literary investigations of outstanding scholars and researchers in the field of study. Recognizing that language is more powerful than what we say, read, write or hear, in this issue of „Hankering‟ our editors have privileged articles that express the ecology, aesthetic and cognitive qualities of the discipline. Expressing a struggle of deliverance, disability and ethnicity, this edition is a synthesis of literary, symbolic and psychology reflection on the English language and literary studies. Topics are from various literary studies, prose and verse criticism, theoretical analysis, application of interpretive methods of literary criticism and research perspectives. Attention has been given to the dominant areas encompassing literary discourse analysis. By sticking to the research goals, and aid to use language in critical and creative ways, we firmly believe that we will able to provide an ambitious, engaging and stimulating space for those who contribute to us. Above all, the ability to communicate in single language is one of the eminent improvements humanity has ever experienced. Therefore, as advocates and users of the words of this beautiful human language within its framework, let us evince this process with the utmost faith and gratitude.

Book Synopsis Studies in English Language and Literature by : M. J. Toswell
Download or read book Studies in English Language and Literature written by M. J. Toswell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-09-10 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of twenty-nine papers is in honour of E. G. Stanley, Rawlinson and Bosworth Emeritus Professor of Anglo-Saxon at the University of Oxford and Emeritus Fellow of Pembroke College, Oxford. Written by scholars he has supervised, examined or otherwise served as mentor for within the last twenty years, the contributors illustrate the advantages of following John Donne's axiom to 'doubt wisely'. Professor Stanley's own published work has shown the utility of wise scepticism as a critical stance; these papers presented to him apply similar approaches to a wide variety of texts, most of them in the field of Old or Middle English literature. The primary focus of the collection is on the close reading of words in their immediate context, which commonly entails a reconsideration of accepted assumptions. Consequently, new links are created here among the disciplines in medieval studies, based on various combinations of these scholarly applications. Contributors provide new analyses of such difficult but rewarding fields as Old English metre and syntax, Beowulf, the origins and development of standard English, the definitions of Old English words and their connotations, the styles and themes of Old English poems, Middle English poetry and prose, the post-medieval reception of medieval works and the styles, themes and sources of Old English poetry and prose. M.J. Toswell is Associate Professor of English at the University of Western Ontario.E.M. Tyler is Lecturer in the Department of English and Related Literature at the Centre for Medieval Studies, University of York.

Book Synopsis Virginia Woolf and Poetry by : Emily Kopley
Download or read book Virginia Woolf and Poetry written by Emily Kopley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-10 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virginia Woolf's career was shaped by her impression of the conflict between poetry and the novel, a conflict she often figured as one between masculine and feminine, old and new, bound and free. In large part for feminist reasons, Woolf promoted the triumph of the novel over poetry, even as she adapted some of poetry's techniques for the novel in order to portray the inner life. Woolf considered poetry the rival form to the novel. A monograph on Woolf's sense of genre rivalry thus offers a thorough reinterpretation of the motivations and aims of her canonical work. Drawing on unpublished archival material and little-known publications, the book combines biography, book history, formal analysis, genetic criticism, source study, and feminist literary history. Woolf's attitude towards poetry is framed within contexts of wide scholarly interest: the decline of the lyric poem, the rise of the novel, the gendered associations with these two genres, elegy in prose and verse, and the history of English Studies. Virginia Woolf and Poetry makes three important contributions. It clarifies a major prompt for Woolf's poetic prose. It exposes the genre rivalry that was creatively generative to many modernist writers. And it details how holding an ideology of a genre can shape literary debates and aesthetics.

Book Synopsis Literature of the 1920s: Writers Among the Ruins by : Chris Baldick
Download or read book Literature of the 1920s: Writers Among the Ruins written by Chris Baldick and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2012-10-03 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surveys a war-haunted, self-consciously disoriented but exceptionally vibrant decade of writing The 1920s emerge in this study as a period with its own distinctive historical awareness and creative agenda, one in which Modernist, non-Modernist and semi-Modernist writers met on shared ground with common memories and preoccupations. Spanning genres high and low, including war memoirs, critical essays and detective stories as well as drama, poetry and the novel, Chris Baldick's approachable study of the decade sets out a 'map' of the new post-Great-War literary landscape with its unique configuration of genres, settings and character-types. Successive chapters investigate the place of ideas (biological, Freudian, esoteric, and more) in literature; the uses of anachronism and the time-sense of the Twenties; re-shapings of war-memory and war myth into varieties of Twenties 'disillusionment'; and curious connections between crime-writing and comedy in the period. This account moves easily between experimental and more 'traditional' literary tendencies of the decade to discover common obsessions and shared moods of elegiac despair, nervous frivolity and bold irreverence.

Book Synopsis Invisibility in African American and Asian American Literature by : Klara Szmańko
Download or read book Invisibility in African American and Asian American Literature written by Klara Szmańko and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2008-09-08 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a comparative study of the invisibility trope in African American and Asian American literature. It distinguishes between various kinds of invisibility and offers a genealogy of the term while providing a theoretical dissection of the invisibility trope itself. Investigating the various ways of striving for visibility, the author places special emphasis on the need for cooperation among various racial groups. While the book explores invisibility in a variety of African American and Asian American literary texts, the main focus is on four novels: Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man, Sam Greenlee's The Spook Who Sat by the Door, Maxine Hong Kingston's Tripmaster Monkey and Chang-rae Lee's Native Speaker. The book not only sheds light on the oppressed but also exposes the structures of oppression and the apparatus of power, which often renders itself invisible. Throughout the study the author emphasizes that power is multi-directional, never flowing only in one direction. The book brings to light mechanisms of oppression within the dominant society as well as within and between marginalized racial groups.

Download or read book Time and Language written by Ori Sela and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China's past and present have been in a continuous dialogue throughout history, one that is heavily influenced by time and language: the temporal orientation and the linguistic apparatus used to express and solidify identity, ideas, and practices. Presenting a host of in-depth case studies, Time and Language: New Sinology and Chinese History argues for and demonstrates the significance of "New Sinology" by restoring the role of language/philology in the research and understanding of how modern China emerged. Reading the modern as a careful and ongoing conversation with the past renders the "new" in a different perspective. This volume is a significant step toward a new historical narrative of China's modern history, one wherein "ruptures" can exist in tandem with continuities. The collection accentuates the deep connection between language and power--one that spans well across China's long past--and hence the immense consequences of linguistic-related methodology to the comprehension of power structures and identity in China. Each of the essays in this volume tackles these issues, the methodological and the thematic, from a different angle but they all share the Sinological prism of analysis and the basic understanding that a much longer timeframe is required to make sense of Chinese modernity. The languages examined are diverse, including modern and classical Chinese, as well as Manchu and Japanese. Taken together they bring a spectrum of linguistic perspectives and hence a spectrum of power relations and identities to the forefront. While the essays focus on late Qing and early twentieth-century eras, they refer often to earlier periods, which are necessary to making real sense of later eras. The methodological and the thematic do not only converge, but also generate a plea for fostering and expanding this approach in current and future studies.
