Literature, Identity and the English Channel - Narrow Seas Expanded (Hardcover): D. Rainsford Literature, Identity and the English Channel - Narrow Seas Expanded (Hardcover)
D. Rainsford
R2,764 Discovery Miles 27 640 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book concerns the significance of the English Channel in British and French literature from the 1780s onwards: a timely subject given the intense debates in progress about the actual and desired relationships between Britain and mainland Europe. The book addresses contemporary authors who use the Channel as a focus for cultural comment, comparing their approaches to those of earlier writers, from Charlotte Smith and Chateaubriand through Hugo and Dickens to historians and travel writers of the 1950s and 1980s.

Authorship, Ethics and the Reader - Blake, Dickens, Joyce (Hardcover): D. Rainsford Authorship, Ethics and the Reader - Blake, Dickens, Joyce (Hardcover)
D. Rainsford
R2,796 Discovery Miles 27 960 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Dominic Rainsford examines ways in which literary texts may seem to comment on their authors' ethical status. Its argument develops through readings of Blake, Dickens, and Joyce, three authors who find especially vivid ways of casting doubt on their own moral authority, at the same time as they expose wider social ills. The book combines its interest in ethics with post-structuralist scepticism, and thus develops a type of radical humanism with applications far beyond the three authors immediately discussed.
