NEW TEXTBOOK
An Introduction to Narratology Monika Fludernik, University of Freiburg, Germany
The Language and Literature Reader
SECOND EDITION
Edited by Ronald Carter, and Peter Stockwell, University of Nottingham, UK
Edited by David Finkelstein, Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh, UK, and Alistair McCleery, Napier University, UK
The Language and Literature Reader is an invaluable resource for students of English literature, language, and linguistics. Bringing together the most significant work in the field with integrated editorial material, this Reader is a structured and accessible tool for the student and scholar.
An Introduction to Narratology is an accessible, practical guide to narratological theory and terminology and its application to literature. In this book, Monika Fludernik outlines: • the key concepts of style, metaphor and metonymy, and the history of narrative forms • narratological approaches to interpretation and the linguistic aspects of texts, including new cognitive developments in the field • how students can use narratological theory to work with texts, incorporating detailed practical examples • a glossary of useful narrative terms, and suggestions for further reading. This textbook offers a comprehensive overview of the key aspects of narratology by a leading practitioner in the field. It demystifies the subject in a way that is accessible to beginners, but also reflects recent theoretical developments and narratology’s increasing popularity as a critical tool.
The Book History Reader
Divided into three sections, Foundations, Developments and New Directions, the Reader provides an overview of the discipline from the early stages in the 1960s and 70s, through the new theories and practices of the 1980s and 90s, to the most recent and contemporary work in the field. Each article contains a brief introduction by the editors situating it in the context of developing work in the discipline and glossing it in terms of the section and of the book as a whole. The final section concludes with a “history and manifesto,” written by the editors, which places developments in the area of stylistics within a brief history of the field and offers a polemical perspective on the future of a growing and influential discipline. 2008: 6-3/4 x 9-3/4: 320pp Hb: 978-0-415-41002-1: $125.00 Pb: 978-0-415-41003-8: $41.95 £75.00

INTRODUCTION TO LITERARY STUDIES
That or Which, and Why
SECOND EDITION
A Usage Guide for Thoughtful Writers and Editors
The Translator’s Invisibility
Evan Jenkins, Columbia Journalism Review, USA
Lawrence Venuti, Temple University, USA
“A brilliant and entertaining romp through difficult questions of English usage. As authoritative as it is witty, it belongs on the desk of every editor, writer, and student of the language.” —Gene Roberts, former Managing Editor, The New York Times That or Which, and Why is an insightful and witty guide to writing. Based on Evan Jenkins’s long-running column “Language Corner” in Columbia Journalism Review, the book is compiled of brief, alphabetically arranged entries on approximately 200 major writing stumbling blocks, from the wonderful world of “that” and “which” to trickier terrain like the correct usage of common idiomatic expressions. Working from his experiences as a newsroom editor and teacher, Jenkins’ humorous tone puts the reader at ease, unlike many of the writing and usage guides out there that are off-putting in their rigidity and dogmatism. He takes the “we’re-all-in-thistogether” approach to teaching better writing maintaining a light tone throughout the book and emphasizing flexibility and easy-to-use guidelines rather than delivering orders from Grammar-onhigh. 2007: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2: 184pp Hb: 978-0-415-97725-8: $85.00 Pb: 978-0-415-97726-5: $19.95 £50.00

The Historical Novel
Lyric
Myth
Jerome de Groot, University of Manchester, UK
Scott Brewster, University of Salford, UK
Laurence Coupe, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK
The historical novel is not only an immensely popular genre, but also one that raises fascinating questions about the nature of key foundational concepts such as fact and fiction, history, reading and writing. This wide-ranging guide offers an accessible introduction to both the genre and the critical debates around it.
The term “lyric” has evolved, been revised, redefined and even contested over the centuries. This fascinating volume traces the history of the term from its classical origins through the early modern, Romantic and Victorian periods and up to the twentieth century. Offering clarity and structure to this often intense and emotive field, Scott Brewster uses as a focal point the three aspects of:
From Shakespeare’s The Tempest to Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, from Coppola’s Apocalypse Now to the Wachowski brothers’ The Matrix, writers and film directors have made and remade “myth.” Laurence Coupe not only offers students a comprehensive overview of the way that the concept of “myth” has developed, but also shows how mythic themes, structures and symbols have persisted into literature and entertainment of the present day. This introductory volume: • illustrates the relation between myth, culture and literature with discussions of poetry, fiction, film and popular song • explores uses made of the term “myth” within the fields of literary criticism, anthropology, cultural studies, feminism, Marxism and psychoanalysis • discusses the association between modernism, postmodernism, myth and history • familiarizes the reader with themes such as the dying god, the quest for the grail, the relation between “chaos” and “cosmos,” and the vision of the end of time • demonstrates the growing importance of the green dimension of myth.
In this volume, Jerome de Groot: • traces the development of the genre, from early eighteenth-century novels concerned with history through to postmodern and contemporary historical fiction • looks at different styles of historical novel, from sensational or “low” genre through to literary fiction, and examines related issues of audience, reception, “value” and “authenticity” • examines the many functions of historical fiction, particularly the challenges it might pose to accepted histories and the postmodern questioning of “grand narratives” • relates the form to the wider cultural sphere, with reference to historical or historiographical theory, the Internet, television and film.
Demonstrating the influence of various definitions of lyric on poetic practice, literature, music and other popular cultural forms, this book is an essential resource for students of literature, performance, music and cultural studies.

Humanism
Modernism
Tony Davies
Peter Childs, University of Gloucestershire, UK “Davies knows what he is writing about and knows how to write about it.” —New Humanist
Definitions of humanism have evolved throughout the centuries as the term has been adopted for a variety of purposes—literary, cultural and political—and reactions against humanism have contributed to movements such as postmodernism and anti-humanism. Tony Davies offers a clear introduction to the many uses of this influential yet complex concept and this second edition extends his discussion to include: • a comprehensive history of the development of the term and its influences • theories of post-humanism, cybernetics and artificial intelligence • implications of concepts of humanism and posthumanism on political and religious activism • discussion of the key figures in humanist debate from Erasmus and Milton to Chomsky, Heidegger and Foucault • a new glossary and further reading section. With clear explanations and poignant discussions, this volume is essential reading for anyone approaching the study of humanism, posthumanism or critical theory. 2008: 5-1/4 x 7-3/4: 176pp Hb: 978-0-415-42064-8: $95.00 Pb: 978-0-415-42065-5: $21.95 eBook: 978-0-203-93256-8
The modernist movement radically transformed the late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century literary establishment, and its effects are still felt today. Modernism introduces and analyzes what amounted to nothing less than a literary and cultural revolution. In this fully updated and revised second edition, charting the movement in its global and local contexts, Peter Childs: • details the origins of the modernist movement and the influence of thinkers such as Darwin, Marx, Freud, Nietzsche, Saussure and Einstein • explores the radical changes which occurred in the literature, drama, art and film of the period • traces “modernism at work” in Anglophone literatures, especially in writings by a range of key figures including James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Samuel Beckett, Nella Larsen, Gertrude Stein, Katherine Mansfield, T.S. Eliot, and many others

Sigmund Freud
Sean Matthews, University of Nottingham, UK
Pal Ahluwalia, University of South Australia, Australia and Bill Ashcroft, University of Hong Kong
Pamela Thurschwell, University of Sussex, UK
Writing during the fraught post World War Two period, Raymond Williams found his voice as a novelist, playwright and television commentator as well as a literary and cultural theorist. Greatly concerned with notions of class, Williams sought to expand the traditional literary canon and understand literature through a complex relation of social forces and ideology, rather than isolated, individual readings.
Edward Said is perhaps best known as the author of the landmark study Orientalism, a book which changed the face of critical theory and shaped the emerging field of postcolonial studies, and for his controversial journalism on the Palestinian political situation. Looking at the context and the impact of Said’s scholarship and journalism, this book examines Said’s key ideas, including: • the significance of “worldliness,” “amateurism,” “secular criticism,” “affiliation” and “contrapuntal reading” • the place of text and critic in “the world” • knowledge, power and the construction of the “Other” • links between culture and imperialism • exile, identity and the plight of Palestine • a new chapter looking at Said’s later work and style. This popular guide has been fully updated and revised in a new edition, suitable for readers approaching Said’s work for the first time as well as those already familiar with the work of this important theorist. The result is the ideal guide to one of the twentieth century’s most engaging critical thinkers.

The work of Sigmund Freud has penetrated almost every area of literary theory and cultural studies as well as contemporary culture. Pamela Thurschwell explains and contextualises psychoanalytic theory and its meaning for modern thinking. This updated second edition explores developments and responses to Freud’s work, including: • tracing the contexts and developments of Freud’s work over the course of his career • exploring the paradoxes and contradictions of his writing • focusing on psychoanalysis as an interpretative strategy, paying special attention to its impact on literary and cultural theory • examining the recent backlash against Freud and argues for the continued relevance of psychoanalysis. Encouraging and preparing readers to approach Freud’s original texts, this guide ensures that readers of all levels will find Freud accessible, challenging and of continued relevance.
As the founding figure of the movement known as “existentialism,” Jean-Paul Sartre was a key figure in twentieth-century literature and philosophy, whose writings changed the course of critical thought.

Questioning not just literary but social, political and cultural assumptions about knowledge and power, Greenblatt’s work has had a huge impact on contemporary theory.

• the relationship of philosophy and religion in his writings • the interaction of his work with historical discussions
Christine Daigle sets Sartre’s thought in context, and considers a number of key ideas in detail, charting their impact and continuing influence, including: • consciousness and being • freedom • interpersonal relationships • the human condition
• his often complex relationships with other theorists and theories.

Giorgio Agamben
F.R. Leavis
Alex Murray, University of Exeter, UK
Richard Storer, Trinity and All Saints College, Leeds, UK
Giorgio Agamben has emerged as one of the most important and controversial figures in continental philosophy and critical theory. Agamben’s work explores the intertwining of law, language, aesthetics and politics and his more recent work theorizes contemporary political situations explored through analysis of the “war on terror.”
Theorists of the Modernist Novel
F.R. Leavis is one of the most influential thinkers in twentieth-century theory. Although his outspoken and confrontational work has often provoked strong attack, there is an increased interest in Leavis as students and critics alike are revisiting his work and re-affirming his position as a key figure in the development of contemporary theory.
Emphasizing the importance and significance of Agamben’s work, Alex Murray explains his key ideas including: • an overview of Agamben’s work from his first publication to the present • a clear analysis of the philosophy of language and life that is central to Agamben’s thought • Agamben’s concepts of ethics and witnessing illustrated by popular representations of the holocaust from film and literature • the way in which Agamben’s political writing is closely related to his work on aesthetics and poetics. Investigating the relationship between politics, language, literature, aesthetics and ethics, this guide is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand the complex nature of modern political and cultural formations.

Drawing on the work of F.R. Leavis and the repercussions and responses that have arisen from it, Richard Storer examines concepts including:
Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick is one of the most significant literary theorists of the last forty years and a key figure in contemporary queer theory. In this engaging and inspiring guide, Jason Edwards: • introduces and explains key terms such as affects, the first person, homosocialities, and queer taxonomies, performativities and cusps • considers Sedgwick’s poetry and textile art alongside her theoretical texts • encourages a personal as well as an academic response to Sedgwick’s work, suggesting how lifechanging it can be • offers detailed suggestions for further reading. Written in an accessible and direct style, Edwards indicates the impact that Sedgwick’s work continues to have on writers, readers, and literary and cultural theory today.

Methodical in approach and sensibly organized, it serves well as an advanced introduction to the theory of the novel in the United States in the twentieth century and will be of considerable interest to various constituencies who seek to understand a genre that, in the words of Bakhtin, is the only one that ‘continues to develop, that is as yet incomplete’.” —Studies in the Novel

Providing clear and succinct introductions to a wide range of subjects, from feminism to postmodernism, Cultural Theory: The Key Concepts continues to be an essential resource for students of literature, sociology, philosophy and media and anyone wrestling with contemporary cultural theory.
Lois Tyson, Grand Valley State University, USA This second edition of the classic guide offers a thorough and accessible introduction to contemporary critical theory. It provides indepth coverage of the most common approaches to literary analysis today: feminism, psychoanalysis, Marxism, reader-response theory, new criticism, structuralism and semiotics, deconstruction, new historicism, cultural criticism, lesbian/gay/queer theory, African-American criticism, and postcolonial criticism. The chapters provide an extended explanation of each theory, using examples from everyday life, popular culture, and literary texts; a list of specific questions critics who use that theory ask about literary texts; an interpretation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby through the lens of each theory; a list of questions for further practice to guide readers in applying each theory to different literary works; and a bibliography of primary and secondary works for further reading. This book can be used as the only text in a course or as a precursor to the study of primary theoretical works. It motivates readers by showing them what critical theory can offer in terms of their practical understanding of literary texts and in terms of their personal understanding of themselves and the world in which they live. Both engaging and rigorous, it is a “how-to” book for undergraduate and graduate students new to critical theory and for college professors who want to broaden their repertoire of critical approaches to literature. 2006: 6 x 9: 464pp Hb: 978-0-415-97409-7: $125.00 Pb: 978-0-415-97410-3: $35.95 £70.00

The Trauma Question outlines the origins of the concept of trauma across psychiatric, legal and cultural-political sources from the 1860s to the coining of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in 1980. It further explores the nature and extent of “trauma culture” from 1980 to the present, drawing upon a range of cultural practices from literature, memoirs and confessional journalism through to photography and film. The study covers a diverse range of cultural works, including writers such as Toni Morrison, Stephen King and W.G. Sebald, artists Tracey Emin, Christian Boltanski and Tracey Moffatt, and film-makers David Lynch and Atom Egoyan. The Trauma Question offers a significant and fascinating step forward for those seeking a greater understanding of the controversial and everexpanding field of trauma research. 2008: 6-1/4 x 9-1/4: 256pp Hb: 978-0-415-40272-9: $120.00 Pb: 978-0-415-40271-2: $35.95 £60.00

A Theory of Adaptation Linda Hutcheon, University of Toronto, Canada
• examines aesthetic and methodological links between modernist literature and theory. • addresses questions of the importance of theory to our understanding of “modernism” and modernism as a literary category. • considers intersections of modernism and theory within ethics, ecocriticism and the avant-garde. Concluding with an afterword from Fredric Jameson, the book makes use of an innovative dialogic format, offering a direct and engaging experience of the current debate in modernist studies.
Persuasive and illuminating, A Theory of Adaptation is a bold rethinking of how adaptation works across all media and genres that may put an end to the age-old question of whether the book was better than the movie, or the opera, or the theme park. 2006: 6 x 9: 232pp Hb: 978-0-415-96794-5: $100.00 Pb: 978-0-415-96795-2: $27.95 £60.00

Stigmata
The Location of Culture
Escaping Texts
Homi Bhabha, Harvard University, USA
Hélène Cixous
Rethinking questions of identity, social agency and national affiliation, Bhabha provides a working, if controversial, theory of cultural hybridity - one that goes far beyond previous attempts by others. In The Location of Culture,†he uses concepts such as mimicry, interstice, hybridity, and liminality to argue that cultural production is always most productive where it is most ambivalent. Speaking in a voice that combines intellectual ease with the belief that theory itself can contribute to practical political change, Bhabha has become one of the leading post-colonial theorists of this era.
This book is about the contemporary city and those who live in it. It is thus also about the urban world of the era (extending roughly from the 1960s to the present) that we see as postmodern, and specifically about how the postmodern city is changing under the impact of globalization and new information and communication technologies.

Literary and Critical Theory
A “wilful extremist” according to the London Times, Hélène Cixous is hailed as one of the most formidable writers and thinkers of our time. Acclaimed by luminaries such as Jacques Derrida, her writing has nonetheless been misunderstood and misread, to a surprising extent. With the inclusion of Stigmata, one of her greatest works into the Routledge Classics series, this is about to change. Questions that have long concerned her— the self and the other, autobiographies of writing, sexual difference, literary theory, post-colonial theory, death and life—are explored here, woven into a stunning narrative. Displaying a remarkable virtuosity, the work of Cixous is heady stuff indeed: exciting, powerful, moving, and dangerous. 2005: 5-1/4 x 7-3/4: 296pp Pb: 978-0-415-34545-3: $22.95 £12.99

LITERARY AND CULTURAL THEORY
Literary Criticism and Cultural Theory Series
Routledge Classics Series Outside in the Teaching Machine
A Theory of Literary Production
Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Columbia University, USA
Pierre Macherey
“Outside in the Teaching Machine is a necessary guide to responsible reading and teaching. Whether literary texts such as Rushdie’s The Satanic Verses and Coetzee’s Foe, philosophy, or films, Spivak’s indefatigable in her questioning of contemporary pieties and in insisting that it is the study of culture that ‘can help us chart the production of versions of reality’.” —Jean Franco, Columbia University, USA Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak is one of the most preeminent postcolonial theorists writing today and a scholar of genuinely global reputation. This collection, first published in 1993, presents some of Spivak’s most engaging essays on works of literature such as Salman Rushdie’s controversial Satanic Verses, and twentieth century thinkers such as Jacques Derrida and Karl Marx. Spivak relentlessly questions and deconstructs power structures where ever they operate. In doing so, she provides a voice for those who can not speak, proving that the true work of resistance takes place in the margins, Outside in the Teaching Machine. 2008: 5 x 7 3/4: 392pp Pb: 978-0-415-96482-1: $24.95 £12.99
Preface by Terry Eagleton, University of Manchester, UK ”What is at stake in this book is nothing less than a dramatically new way of approaching literature, one which in its unostentatious, low key way scandalously smashes a whole range of liberal humanist icons.” —Terry Eagleton Who is more important: the reader, or the writer? Originally published in French in 1966, Pierre Macherey’s first and most famous work, A Theory of Literary Production dared to challenge perceived wisdom, and quickly established him as a pivotal figure in literary theory. The reissue of this work as a Routledge Classic brings some radical ideas to a new audience, and argues persuasively for a totally new way of reading. As such, it is an essential work for anyone interested in the development of literary theory.

Although Dreiser, Wright, and Farrell are more commonly thought of as Chicago writers, this study argues that Langston Hughes is a transitional, pivotal figure between the two periods. Through close readings and contextualization, the influence of Chicago writing on American literature—in such areas as realism and naturalism, as well as proletarian and ethnic fiction— becomes apparent.

Haunting and Displacement in African American Literature and Culture
The Politics of Identity in Irish Drama
Marisa Parham, Amherst College, USA
George Cusack, University of Oklahoma, USA
Looking at texts including Jean Toomer’s Cane, Toni Morrison’s Beloved, James Baldwin’s Another Country, and Beat poetry by Bob Kaufmann, in this original study, Parham describes the phenomena of haunting, displacement, and ghostliness as endemic to modern African American literature and culture. Not only does memory—conscious and unconscious, individual and collective—often drive African American cultural production, but such memory often arrives to artists from elsewhere, from other times, spaces, and experiences.
This study examines the early dramatic works of Yeats, Synge, and Gregory in the context of late colonial Ireland’s unique socio-political landscape. By contextualizing each author’s work within the artistic and political discourses of their time, Cusack demonstrates the complex negotiation of nationalism, class, and gender identities undertaken by these three authors in the years leading up to Ireland’s revolution against England. Furthermore, by focusing on a few plays written by each author in the context of the ongoing debates over Irish national identity which were taking place throughout Irish public life in this period, Cusack examines in more depth than previous studies the ways Yeats, Gregory, and Synge adapted conventional dramatic and linguistic forms to accommodate the conflicting claims of Irish nationalism. In so doing, he demonstrates the contribution these authors made not only to the development of Irish nationalism but also to modern and postcolonial literature as we understand them today.

Its span runs from Roger Williams to Thoreau, Anne Bradstreet to Gertrude Stein, Ambrose Bierce to the New Journalism, The Beats to the recent Bad Subjects cyber-crowd.

Shaping Novels and Gardens in the Culture of Sensibility Inger Sigrun Brodey, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, USA
NEW
NEW SERIES!
“Inger Brodey has written a book of remarkable vitality about the fascination with ruins across eighteenth-century Europe. The book is both interdisciplinary and international. Instead of focusing on a single field like poetry, painting, or garden design in isolation, she uncovers their shared penchant for fragmentation which defines the culture of sensibility. Few authors writing on the fashion of ruins have penetrated this well-known phenomenon so deeply and intelligently.” —Wu Hung, Harrie A. Vanderstappen Distinguished Professor, University of Chicago, USA By examining the motif of ruination in a variety of late-eighteenth-century domains, this book portrays the moral aesthetic of the culture of sensibility in Europe, particularly its negotiation of the demands of tradition and pragmatism alongside utopian longings for authenticity, natural goodness, selfgovernance, mutual transparency, and instantaneous kinship.
Direct and lucid, this book guides readers through the key topics and presents an original synthesis on the history and practice of the subject. It is the ideal starting point for students new to the subject or anyone wanting an overview of Southeast Asian Literature in English. Selected Contents: 1. Introduction 2.

Re-writing the Script
Caliban’s Voice The Transformation of English in Post-Colonial Literatures
Post-Colonial Studies: The Key Concepts
Robert Fraser, The Open University, UK This surprising study draws together the disparate fields of postcolonial theory and book history in a challenging and illuminating way.
Bill Ashcroft, University of Hong Kong In Shakespeare’s Tempest, Caliban says to Miranda and Prospero: “...you taught me language, and my profit on’t
Robert Fraser proposes that we now look beyond the traditional methods of the Anglo-European bibliographic paradigm, and learn to appreciate instead the diversity of shapes that verbal expression has assumed across different societies. This change of attitude will encourage students and researchers to question developmentally conceived models of communication, and move instead to a reformulation of just what is meant by a book, an author, a text. Fraser illustrates his combined approach with comparative case studies of print, script and speech cultures in South Asia and Africa, before panning out to examine conflicts and paradoxes arising in parallel contexts. The re-orientation of approach and the freshness of view offered by this volume will foster understanding and creative collaboration between scholars of different outlooks, while offering a radical critique to those identified in its concluding section as purveyors of global literary power. 2008: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2: 224pp Hb: 978-0-415-40293-4: $110.00 Pb: 978-0-415-40294-1: $33.95 eBook: 978-0-203-88811-7 £60.00

Is, I know how to curse.” With this statement, he gives voice to an issue that lies at the centre of post-colonial studies. Can Caliban own Prospero’s language? Can he use it to do more than curse? Caliban’s Voice examines the ways in which postcolonial literatures have transformed English to redefine what we understand to be “English Literature.” It investigates the importance of language learning in the imperial mission, the function of language in ideas of race and place, the link between language and identity, the move from orature to literature and the significance of translation. By demonstrating the dialogue that occurs between writers and readers in literature, Bill Ashcroft argues that cultural identity is not locked up in language, but that language, even a dominant colonial language, can be transformed to convey the realities of many different cultures. Using the figure of Caliban, Ashcroft weaves a consistent and resonant thread through his discussion of the post-colonial experience of life in the English language, and the power of its transformation into new and creative forms.

Postcolonial Ecocriticism Helen Tiffin, Queen’s University, Ontario, Canada and Graham Huggan, University of Leeds, UK In Postcolonial Ecocriticism Graham Huggan and Helen Tiffin examine relationships between humans, animals and the environment in postcolonial texts. Making use of the work of authors as diverse as J.M. Coetzee, Joseph Conrad, Daniel Defoe, Jamaica Kincaid and V.S. Naipaul, the authors argue that human liberation will never be fully achieved without challenging how human societies have constructed themselves in hierarchical relation to other human and nonhuman communities, and without imagining new ways in which these ecologically connected groupings can be creatively transformed.

Imperial Eyes Travel Writing and Transculturation Mary Louise Pratt, New York University, USA ”Imperial Eyes is a seminal work in the study of travel writing, demonstrating an inventive use of canonical and non-canonical sources from the archive of European travel writing, and from the colonial “contact zone.” Its critical insights are drawn eclectically from discourse analysis, gender criticism, postcolonialism, anthropology, and literary theory, drawn together with unflagging political energy. It remains a model of its kind.” —Nigel Leask, Glasgow University, UK

Edited by John McLeod, University of Leeds, UK The Routledge Companion to Postcolonial Studies offers a unique and up-to-date mapping of the postcolonial world, and is composed of essays as well as shorter entries for ease of reference. Introducing students to the history of the great European empires and the cultural legacies created in their wake, this book brings together an international range of contributors on such topics as: • the colonial histories of Britain, France, Spain and Portugal • the diverse postcolonial and diasporic cultural endeavors from Africa, the Americas, Australasia, Europe, and South and East Asia • the major theoretical formulations: poststructuralist, materialist, culturalist, psychological. With a comprehensive A to Z of forty key writers and thinkers central to contemporary postcolonial studies and featuring historical maps, this is both a concise introduction and an essential resource for any student of postcolonial culture, whatever their field.

Decolonizing Cultures in the Pacific
Land and Nationalism in Fictions from Southern Africa
Reading History and Trauma in Contemporary Fiction
Culture, Politics, and Self-Representation
Susan Y. Najita, University of Michigan, USA
James Graham, University of Warwick, UK
Decolonizing Cultures in the Pacific is a valuable addition to the fields of Pacific and Postcolonial Studies and also contributes to struggles for cultural decolonization in Oceania: contemporary writers’ critical engagement with colonialism and indigenous culture, Najita argues, provides a powerful tool for navigating a decolonized future.
In this volume, Graham investigates the relation between land and nationalism in South African and Zimbabwean fiction from the 1960s to the present. This comparative study, the first of its kind, discusses a wide range of writing against a backdrop of regional decolonization, including novels by the prize-winning authors J.M. Coetzee, Nadine Gordimer, Bessie Head, Chenjerai Hove, and Yvonne Vera. By employing a range of critical perspectives— cultural materialist, feminist and ecocritical— Graham offers new ways of thinking about the relationship between land, nation and politics in Southern Africa.

Paradise Discourse, Imperialism, and Globalization Exploiting Eden Sharae Deckard, University of Warwick, UK
• defines colonial autobiography as a sub-genre which lies between metropolitan western autobiography and postcolonial life-writing in terms of its handling of the dialectic between Self and (non-western) Other • specifies some of the key characteristics of postcolonial autobiography which differentiate it from its western equivalents, notably in terms of its styles of writing and conceptions of the Self • promotes greater inter-disciplinary links between the critical sub-fields of Autobiography Studies and Postcolonial Studies.
In this ambitious volume, Deckard analyzes authors such as Malcolm Lowry, Leonard Woolf, Juan Rulfo, Wilson Harris, Abdulrazak Gurnah, and Romesh Gunesekera in order to make a materialist study of the relation between paradise myths and the ideologies and economies of colonialism and neoimperialism in literature from Mexico, Zanzibar and Sri Lanka. Deckard argues that literary myths of paradise are the products of a value-laden discourse related to profit, labor, and the exploitation of resources, both human and environmental, which evolves according to the differing material conditions and discursive agendas of its employers.

Transnationalism in Southern African Literature Modernists, Realists, and the Inequality of Print Culture Stefan Helgesson, Upsala University, Sweden Considering the growing interest in South African Literature at the moment, this study looks at both the Anglophone literature of South Africa and the lusophone literature of Angola and Mozambique. Stefan Helgesson suggests that the prevalence of “colonial” languages such as English and Portuguese in “anticolonial” or “postcolonial” African Literature is primarily an effect of the print network. Helgesson aims to demystify the authority of English and Portuguese by stressing the materiality of the print medium and emphasizing the strong transnational and transcontinental vectors of southern African literature after the Second World War. 2008: 6 x 9: 176pp Hb: 978-0-415-46239-6: $120.00 eBook: 978-0-203-43151-1 £60.00

Speculative Grammar and Stoic Language Theory in Medieval Allegorical Narrative From Prudentius to Alan of Lille Jeffrey Bardzell, University of Indiana, USA Speculative Grammar and Stoic Language Theory in Medieval Allegorical Narrative establishes that Stoic linguistic theory is compatible with and likely partially formative of both the allegorical medium itself and the ideas expressed within it, in particular as they appeared in the allegories of Prudentius, Boethius, and Alan.
The title of this collection, Profiling Shakespeare, is meant strongly in its double sense. These essays show the outline of a Shakespeare rather different from the man sought by biographers from his time to our own. They also show the effects, the ephemera, the clues and cues, welcome and unwelcome, out of which Shakespeare’s admirers and dedicated scholars have pieced together a vision of the playwright, whether as sage, psychologist, lover, theatrical entrepreneur, or moral authority. This collection brings together classic pieces, hard-to-find chapters, and two new essays. Here, Garber has produced a book at once serious and highly readable, ranging broadly across time periods (early modern to postmodern) and touching upon both high and popular culture.

Shakespeare and the Problem of Adaptation
Gothic Shakespeares
Edited by Diana E. Henderson, MIT, Massachusetts, USA
Edited by John Drakakis and Dale Townshend, University of Stirling, UK
Margaret Jane Kidnie, University of Western Ontario, Canada Shakespeare and the Problem of Adaptation presents an engaging exploration of the distinction between the Shakespearean work and its apparent other, the adaptation. Margaret Jane Kidnie brings performance criticism into contact with textual studies to show that the mutually defining categories of work and adaptation are unfixed; the products of ongoing debates, arguments, and desires. Kidnie pursues her argument in relation to instances as diverse as theatrical productions by the Royal Shakespeare Company to Djanet Sears’ prequel to Othello, and from Robert Lepage’s one-man Hamlet to recent print editions of the complete works. These new readings of key productions are accessible as independent analyses, and build up a persuasive picture of the cultural and intellectual processes that currently determine how the authentically Shakespearean is distinguished from the fraudulent and adaptive.

Re-playing Shakespeare in Asia Edited by Poonam Trivedi, University of Delhi, India and Ryuta Minami, Aichi University of Education, Japan In Re-playing Shakespeare in Asia, leading scholars in the field examine the performance of Shakespeare in Asia. Focusing specifically on the work of major directors in the central and emerging areas of Asia—Japan, China, India, Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia and the Philippines—the chapters in this volume encompass a broader and more representative swath of Asian performances and locations in one book than has been attempted until now.
Shakespeare was both influenced by and influential in the rise of Gothic forms in literature and culture from the late eighteenth century onwards. Shakespeare’s plays are full of ghosts, suspense, fear-inducing moments and cultural anxieties which many writers in the Gothic mode have since emulated, adapted and appropriated. The contributors to this volume consider: • Shakespeare’s relationship with popular Gothic fiction of the eighteenth century • how, without Shakespeare as a point of reference, the Gothic mode in fiction and drama may not have developed and evolved in quite the way it did • the ways in which the Gothic engages in a complex dialogue with Shakespeare, often through the use of quotation, citation and analogy • the extent to which the relationship between Shakespeare and the Gothic requires a radical reappraisal in the light of contemporary literary theory, as well as the popular extensions of the Gothic into many modern modes of representation. In Gothic Shakespeares, Shakespeare is considered alongside major Gothic texts and writers - from Horace Walpole, Ann Radcliffe, Matthew Lewis and Mary Shelley, up to and including contemporary Gothic fiction and horror film. This volume offers a highly original and truly provocative account of Gothic reformulations of Shakespeare, and Shakespeare’s significance to the Gothic.

This volume takes up the challenge embodied in its predecessors, Alternative Shakespeares and Alternative Shakespeares 2, to identify and explore the new, the changing and the radically “other”possibilities for Shakespeare Studies at our particular historical moment. Alternative Shakespeares 3 introduces the strongest and most innovative of the new directions emerging in Shakespearean scholarship—ranging across performance studies, multimedia and textual criticism, concerns of economics, science, religion and ethics—as well as the “next step” work in areas such as postcolonial and queer studies that continue to push the boundaries of the field. The contributors approach each topic with clarity and accessibility in mind, enabling student readers to engage with serious “alternatives” to established ways of interpreting Shakespeare’s plays and their roles in contemporary culture. The expertise, commitment and daring of this volume’s contributors shine through each essay, maintaining the progressive edge and real-world urgency that are the hallmark of Alternative Shakespeares. This volume is essential reading for students and scholars of Shakespeare who seek an understanding of current and future directions in this ever-changing field.

A Critical Reader
“Jonathan Sawday’s pioneering and thoughtful work can change the course of the study of the Early Modern period…This illuminating book enlarges our sense of the Renaissance, redirects our focus, and shows us a world elsewhere we have not seen before.” —Arthur Kinney, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA Challenging the artificial divide between technological studies and cultural history, Engines of the Imagination traces the story of the imaginative encounter with machines and machinery in the European Renaissance.
Collating thirty-four essays from the field’s leading scholars, John Jeffries Martin shows that this period of rapid and complex change resulted from a convergence of a new set of social, economic and technological forces†alongside a cluster of interrelated practices including painting, sculpture, humanism and science, in which the elites engaged.

Authorship, Authority and the Playhouse Grace Ioppolo, University of Reading, UK “To say that Ioppolo’s book will, or should, completely alter the way the texts by the playwrights of the period are edited and therefore performed is to put it entirely too mildly. And, of course, she most definitely brings the author back from the dead...” —Notes and Queries This book presents new evidence about the ways in which English Renaissance dramatists such as William Shakespeare, Ben Jonson, Thomas Heywood, John Fletcher and Thomas Middleton composed their plays and the degree to which they participated in the dissemination of their texts to theatrical audiences. Grace Ioppolo argues that the path of the transmission of the text was not linear, from author to censor to playhouse to audience - as has been universally argued by scholars - but circular. 2008: 6-1/4 x 9-1/4: 224pp Hb: 978-0-415-33965-0: $140.00 Pb: 978-0-415-47031-5: $39.95 eBook: 978-0-203-44942-4

The Female Reader in the English Novel From Burney to Austen Joe Bray, University of Sheffield, UK
Edited by Andrea Brady and Emily Butterworth, Kings College, London, UK This collection of interdisciplinary essays from the fields of literary criticism, cultural studies, politics and intellectual history offers new answers to these commonplace questions. These essays explore both elite and popular culture, women and men’s experiences, and the encounter between East and West. They provide a comparative view on the range of personal, political and social practices with which early modern people planned for, imagined, manipulated or even rejected the future.
Pratima Prasad, University of Massachusetts, USA This book investigates how French Romanticism was shaped by and contributed to colonial discourses of race. It studies the ways in which metropolitan Romantic novels—that is, novels by French authors such as Victor Hugo, George Sand, Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, François René de Chateaubriand, Claire de Duras, and Prosper Mérimée—comprehend and construct colonized peoples, fashion French identity in the context of colonialism, and record the encounter between Europeans and non-Europeans. While the primary texts that come under investigation in the book are novels, close attention is paid to Romantic fiction’s interdependence with naturalist treatises, travel writing, abolitionist texts, and ethnographies.

Gender and the Fictions of the Public Sphere, 1690-1755 Anthony Pollock, University of Illinois, USA Gender and the Fictions of the Public Sphere, 16901755, complicates our understanding of eighteenthcentury English print culture by studying the journalistic work of women writers who have long been overlooked by scholars, and by re-interpreting texts by canonical male authors in the period as responses to these early feminist models of cultural authority.

Situated at the intersection of literature and science, Holland’s study draws upon a diverse corpus of literary and scientific texts which testify to a cultural fascination with procreation around 1800. Through readings which range from Goethe’s writing on metamorphosis to Novalis’s aphorisms and novels and Ritter’s Fragments from the Estate of a Young Physicist, Holland proposes that each author contributes to a scientifically-informed poetics of procreation. Rather than subscribing to a single biological theory (such as epigenesis or preformation), these authors take their inspiration from a wide inventory of procreative motifs and imagery.

The dark, destructive and monstrous elements of gothic fiction have traditionally been seen in opposition to the rose-tinted idealism of Romanticism. In this ground-breaking study, Fred Botting re-evaluates the relationship between the two genres in order to plot the shifting alignments of popular and literary fictions with cultural theories, consumption and representations of science. Gothic Romanced traces the history of gothic and romantic writings from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to the present day. It examines the ways in which these genres were aligned with the historical process of modernity—with the Gothic representing the negative aspects of vice and barbarism that accompanied the changing parameters of civilisation, while Romance clung on to traditional values, manners and feelings. The book demonstrates how these genres have evolved together alongside cultural shifts and postmodern theories, blurring the binary between the sacred and the profane. Botting considers Romance and the Gothic from Mary Shelley, Anne Rice and Alasdair Gray through to Alien and Star Trek. He manages a fluid and extensive exploration of generic boundaries, including gothic fiction, romantic poetry, literary pastiches, popular horror fiction, cyberpunk and science fiction.

Nineteenth-Century Worlds Global Formations Past and Present Edited by Keith Hanley, University of Lancaster, UK and Greg Kucich, University of Notre Dame, USA Nineteenth-Century Worlds assembles a wide range of original, interdisciplinary approaches to emergent global formations in the nineteenth century and their impact on the critical pressure points of geopolitical relations today.
What Animals Mean in the Fiction of Modernity argues that nonhuman animals, and stories about them, have always been closely bound up with the conceptual and material work of modernity. In the first half of the book, Philip Armstrong examines the function of animals and animal representations in four classic narratives: Robinson Crusoe, Gulliver’s Travels, Frankenstein and Moby-Dick. He then goes on to explore how these stories have been re-worked, in ways that reflect shifting social and environmental forces, by later novelists, including H.G. Wells, Upton Sinclair, D.H. Lawrence, Ernest Hemingway, Franz Kafka, Brigid Brophy, Bernard Malamud, Timothy Findley, Will Self, Margaret Atwood, Yann Martel and J.M. Coetzee. What Animals Mean in the Fiction of Modernity also introduces readers to new developments in the study of human-animal relations. It does so by attending both to the significance of animals to humans, and to animals’ own purposes or designs; to what animals mean to us, and to what they mean to do, and how they mean to live. 2008: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2: 264pp Hb: 978-0-415-35838-5: $110.00 Pb: 978-0-415-35839-2: $35.95 eBook: 978-0-203-00456-2 £60.00

The study of travel literature and the study of literary representations of and philosophical inquiries into drugs and intoxication have grown increasingly prominent as independent fields of inquiry, but neither field has produced any sustained examination of the relationships between the two.†In this volume, Banco†examines interlocking representations of travel and drugs in†the fiction of Burroughs, Huxley and others†in order to assesses how and why metaphors of mobility help conceptualize the experience of intoxication as well as how and why drugs enable us to think about the pleasures and the pains of travel.†He discovers that the juxtaposition of traveling and tripping — which he argues is often a process of “spatializing intoxication”—†raises important questions about†identity, alterity, utopia, and capitalism.

Asian American Fiction, History, and Life Writing
Remapping Citizenship and the Nation in African American Literature
International Encounters
Stephen Knadler, Spelman College, USA
Helena Grice, University of Wales, UK
In this study, Knadler examines the way a number of “itinerant” or mobile African American writers, often traveling to the margins of a nineteenth and early twentieth-century U.S. Empire, developed “diasporic intimacies,” or sets of cross racial, cross national identifications, sympathies and alliances that caused them to challenge dominant ideas of U.S. nationalism, democracy and citizenship. Through a series of small histories, Knadler begins the work of showing that before the consolidation of modern nationalist based identity politics with the Harlem Renaissance or the New Negro movement, “African American” writers often developed a more complicated transnational and transracial consciousness than is generally acknowledged as part of a scholarly conversation still largely limited to debates over integration or Afrocentric internationalism.
The last ten years have witnessed an enormous growth in American interest in Asia and Asian/American history. In particular, a set of key Asian historical moments have recently become the subject of intense American cultural scrutiny, namely China’s Cultural Revolution and its aftermath; the Korean American war and its legacy; the era of Japanese geisha culture and its subsequent decline; and China’s one-child policy and the rise of transracial, international adoption in its wake. Grice examines and accounts for this cultural and literary preoccupation with all things Asian, exploring the corresponding historical-political situations that have both circumscribed and enabled greater cultural and political contact between Asia and America.

Toni Morrison’s ‘Beloved’ Origins Justine Tally, University of La Laguna Tenerife, Spain This work expands the scope of Morrison’s project to examine the ways and means of memory in the preservation of belief systems passed down from the earliest civilizations (both the Classical Greek and the Ancient Egyptian) as a challenge to the sterility of modernity. Moreover, this research explores the author’s specific use of Foucauldian theory as a vehicle for her narrative, which reclaims the very origins of civilization’s primal concerns with life, procreation and regeneration, springing from the very Heart of Africa. Despite the weight of “white” authority and the disparaging of “blackness,” Beloved’s multiple “ghosts” conjure up a legacy so potent that no authoritarian discourse has been able to entirely erase it, a legacy that still speaks to us from a heritage we no longer acknowledge yet that nevertheless remains, and sustains us.

The issues that the contributors identify as especially productive include: • immigration and America’s geographical borders, particularly those with Latin America • racial tensions, race relations and racial exchanges • historical memory and the recording of history • sex, scandal and the politicization of sexuality • postmodern technologies, terrorism and paranoia. This title examines texts by established authors such as Don DeLillo, Toni Morrison, Philip Roth and Thomas Pynchon, but also by emergent writers, such as Sherman Alexie, Chang-Rae Lee, E. Annie Proulx, David Foster Wallace, and Jonathan Franzen. American Fiction of the 1990s offers new insight into both the literature and the culture of the period, as well as the interaction between the two in a way that furthers the New American Studies. 2008: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2: 249pp Hb: 978-0-415-43566-6: $120.00 Pb: 978-0-415-43567-3: $39.95 eBook: 978-0-203-09104-3 £60.00

Transnationalism and American Literature
John Brown and the Era of Literary Confrontation
Relentless Progress
Literary Translation 1773-1892
Michael Stoneham, United States Military Academy, USA
Colleen G. Boggs, Dartmouth College, USA “A major contribution to the new, postnational American Studies: sophisticated and original.” —Dr. Jess Edwards, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK “In this book, Colleen Glenney Boggs makes a startlingly powerful and original case…While other critics consider transnationalism primarily as a spatial or political phenomenon, Glenney Boggs focuses our attention on evidence of linguistic variety in the pages of American works themselves: a significant angle so far overlooked by those who habitually equate national print culture with monolingualism. She persuasively argues that American texts have always been multilingual and that ‘the practice of linguistic translation’ actually helped rather than hindered American authors in their quest for artistic innovation.” —Leslie Eckel, “The Comparatist” February 2009: 6 x 9: 224pp Pb: 978-0-415-99989-2: $39.95 £19.99

The Reconfiguration of Children’s Literature, Fairy Tales, and Storytelling Jack Zipes, University of Minnesota, USA Can fairy tales subvert consumerism? Can fantasy and children’s literature counter the homogenizing influence of globalization? Can storytellers retain their authenticity in the age of consumerism? These are some of the critical questions raised by Jack Zipes, the celebrated scholar of fairy tales and children’s literature. In this book, Zipes argues that, despite a dangerous reconfiguration of children as consumers in the civilizing process, children’s literature, fairy tales, and storytelling possess a uniquely powerful (even fantastic) capacity to resist the “relentless progress” of negative trends in culture. He also argues that these tales and stories may lose their power if they are too diluted by commercialism and merchandising. Stories have been used for centuries as a way to teach children (and adults) how to see the world, as well as their place within it. In Relentless Progress, Zipes looks at the surprising ways that stories have influenced people within contemporary culture and vice versa. Among the many topics explored here are the dumbing down of books for children, the marketing of childhood, the changing shape of feminist fairy tales, and why American and British children aren’t exposed to more non-western fairy tales. From picture books to graphic novels, from children’s films to video games, from Grimm’s fairy tales to the multimedia Harry Potter phenomenon, Zipes demonstrates that while children’s stories have changed greatly in recent years, much about these stories have remained the same—despite their contemporary, high-tech repackaging. Relentless Progress offers remarkable insight into why classic folklore and fairy tales should remain an important part of the lives of children in today’s digital culture.

CHILDREN’S LITERATURE
2-VOLUME SET
SECOND EDITION
The Collected Sicilian Folk and Fairy Tales of Giuseppe Pitré
When Dreams Came True
Giuseppe Pitré
Jack Zipes, University of Minnesota, USA
Edited by Jack Zipes, University of Minnesota, USA and Joseph Russo
In When Dreams Came True, Jack Zipes explains the social life of the fairy tale, from the sixteenth century on into the twenty-first. Whether exploring Charles Perrault or the Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Andersen or The Thousand and One Nights, The Happy Prince or Pinocchio, L. Frank Baum or Hermann Hesse, Zipes shows how the authors of our beloved fairy tales used the genre to articulate personal desires, political views, and aesthetic preferences within particular social contexts. Above all, he demonstrates the role that the fairy tale has assumed in the civilizing process—the way it imparts values, norms, and aesthetic taste to children and adults.
Giuseppe Pitré, a nineteenth-century Sicilian physician, gathered an enormous wealth of folk and fairy tales as he traveled and treated the poor throughout Palermo. He also received tales from friends and scholars throughout the island of Sicily. A dedicated folklorist, whose significance ranks alongside the Brothers Grimm, he published a 25volume collection of Sicilian folk tales, legends, songs, and customs between 1871 and 1914. Though first published in their original Sicilian dialect, these tales have never before been translated, collected, and published in English until now. This historic two-volume set collects 300 and 100 variants of his most entertaining and most important folk and fairy tales, along with lively, vivid illustrations by Carmelo Lettere. In stark contrast to the more literary ambitions of the Grimms‘ tales, Pitré’s possess a charming, earthy quality that reflect the customs, beliefs, and superstitions of the common people more clearly than any other European folklore collection of the nineteenth century. Edited, translated, and with a critical introduction by world-renowned folk and fairy tale experts Jack Zipes and Joseph Russo, this collection will firmly establish Pitré’s importance as a folklorist. 2008: 7 x 10: 1040pp 2-Volume Set: Hb: 978-0-415-98032-6: $175.00 eBook: 978-0-203-92790-8 £90.00

SECOND EDITION
Ethnic, Heroic and National Identities
Fairy Tales and the Art of Subversion
Jo Lampert, Queensland University of Technology
Jack Zipes, University of Minnesota, USA The fairy tale may be one of the most important cultural and social influences on children’s lives. But until Fairy Tales and the Art of Subversion, little attention had been paid to the ways in which the writers and collectors of tales used traditional forms and genres in order to shape children’s lives—their behavior, values, and relationship to society. As Jack Zipes convincingly shows, fairy tales have always been a powerful discourse, capable of being used to shape or destabilize attitudes and behavior within culture. For this second edition, the author has revised the work throughout and added a new introduction bringing this classic title up to date. £60.00

This pioneering study will have significant relevance across disciplines, as scholars in literary studies, media and cultural studies, visual arts, education, psychology, and sociology examine the increasingly blurred borderlines between adults and young people in contemporary society, notably with regard to their consumption of popular culture. 2008: 6 x 9: 360pp Hb: 978-0-415-98033-3: $120.00 eBook: 978-0-203-89313-5 £65.00
The Crossover Novel Contemporary Children’s Fiction and Its Adult Readership Rachel Falconer, University of Sheffield, UK The Crossover Novel delves into the heart of the controversy over “crossover fiction”—the fiction that has crossed from children to adult readers over the millennial decade, and continues to do so today. This book argues that the popularity of cross-reading cannot simply be attributed to clever marketing or to the “dumbing down” of adult readers, as some have claimed. Crossover fiction may be understood as an extension of “kiddulthood,” the celebration of youth culture in a modern, capitalist society that places a premium on speed, flexibility, and lightness. In other respects, however, as Falconer persuasively argues, it can be understood as capitalism’s antithesis: the expression of a desire for personal rootedness and for communally shared truths. 2008: 6 x 9: 280pp Hb: 978-0-415-97888-0: $100.00 eBook: 978-0-203-89217-6 £60.00

Death, Gender and Sexuality in Contemporary Adolescent Literature is a pioneering study that addresses these methodological and contextual gaps.

Representations of Technology in Science Fiction for Young People
Translation Under State Control
Control Shift Noga Applebaum, Roehampton University, UK In this study about the representations of modern technology in contemporary science fiction for children and young adults, Applebaum exposes the anti-technological bias existing within a genre usually associated with celebrating technology, and suggests that at the heart of this bias is adults’ fear that children, perceived as being more comfortable and skilled with certain technologies, will use them to upset the existing adult-child power hierarchy. Although focusing on the popular genre of science fiction as a useful case study, Applebaum demonstrates that negative attitudes to technology exist within children’s literature in general.
Books for Young People in the German Democratic Republic Gaby Thomson-Wohlgemuth, University of Surrey, UK Translation Under State Control represents a study of ideological and socio-cultural parameters in connection with book production and translation of English-language literature for children and adolescents in the German Democratic Republic (GDR).

Dickens, Journalism, and Nationhood
Gertrude Stein and the Making of an American Celebrity
Philip K. Dick
Mapping the World in Household Words
Karen Leick, Ohio State University, USA
Lejla Kucukalic, Columbia University, USA
Sabine Clemm, University of Southampton, UK
By examining not the ways that Stein portrayed the popular in her work, but the ways the popular portrayed her, this study shows that there was an intimate relationship between literary modernism and mainstream culture and that modernist writers and texts were much more well-known than has been previously acknowledged. Specifically, Karen Leick reveals through the case study of Stein that the relationship between mass culture and modernism in America was less antagonistic, more productive and integrated than previous studies have suggested.
In this timely study, Kucakulic examines the major themes of Dick’s novels—including critique of consumer society, mass media, and technology— ultimately concluding that transcending these concerns is Dick’s preoccupation with the traditional moral and religious issues of American literature as manifested in the modern world.
Dickens, Journalism, and Nationhood examines Charles Dickens’ weekly family magazine Household Words in order to develop a detailed picture of how the journal negotiated, asserted and simultaneously deconstructed Englishness as a unified (and sometimes unifying) mode of expression. It offers close readings of a wide range of materials that selfconsciously focus on the nature of England as well as the relationship between Britain and the European continent, Ireland, and the British colonies.

Djuna Barnes, T.S. Eliot and the Gender Dynamics of Modernism
Hania Nashef In this volume, Hania Nashef looks at J.M. Coetzee’s concern with universal suffering and the inevitable humiliation of the human being as manifest in his novels. Though several theorists have referred to the theme of human degradation in Coetzee’s work, no detailed study has been made of this area of concern especially with respect to how pervasive it is across Coetzee’s literary output to date. This study examines what J.M. Coetzee’s novels portray as the circumstances that contribute to the humiliation of the individual—namely the abuse of language, master and slave interplay, aging and senseless waiting—and how these conditions, singularly or in unison can lead to the alienation and marginalization of the individual.
Locality, Patriotism, and Nationalism Joseph R. McCleary, University of Maryland, USA This study examines a selection of Chesterton’s novels, poetry, and literary criticism and outlines the distinctive philosophy of history that emerges from these writings. Looking at Chesteron’s relationship with and influence upon authors including William Cobbett, Sir Walter Scott, Belloc, Shaw, H.G. Wells, Christopher Dawson, Evelyn Waugh, and Marshall McLuhan, McCleary contends that Chesterton’s recurring use of the themes of locality, patriotism, and nationalism embodies a distinctive understanding of what gives history its coherence.

Frontier/Grotesque in the Novels of William Faulker
Narrative Conventions and Race in the Novels of Toni Morrison
Dicken’s Secular Gospel
Peter Alan Froehlich, Southeast Missouri State University, USA
Jennifer Lee Jordan Heinert, University of Wisconsin, USA
Chris Louttit, University of Leicester, UK
This book locates Faulkner’s historical vision in his use of “frontier/grotesque,” a cultural rhetoric associated with colonization, which appears in the tension between the regional mythology of plantation and the national mythology of frontier. The book identifies Absalom, Absalom!, The Hamlet, and Go Down, Moses as a “mythic trilogy,” novels less concerned with portraying the harsh realities of the Depression than the author’s vision of a South caught in the tension between the regional mythology of plantation and the national mythology of frontier.
This study analyzes the relationship between race and genre in four of Toni Morrison’s novels: The Bluest Eye, Tar Baby, Jazz, and Beloved. Heinert argues how Morrison’s novels revise conventional generic forms such as bildungsroman, folktales, slave narratives, and the formal realism of the novel itself. This study goes beyond formalist analyses to show how these revisions expose the relationship between race, conventional generic forms, and the dominant culture. 2008: 6 x 9: 128pp Hb: 978-0-415-96148-6: $95.00
Work, Gender, and Personality The first full-length study on the subject of Dickens and work, this lucidly written book provides a broader and more comprehensive account of it than has been previously attempted in shorter essays and chapters. Louttit reshapes our understanding of Dickens by challenging a critical oversimplification: that Dickens’s attitude towards work reflects conventional expressions of Victorian earnestness of the sort attributed also to Thomas Carlyle, John Ruskin, and even more simplistically, Samuel Smiles.

Rethinking Chinese Popular Culture Cannibalizations of the Canon Edited by Carlos Rojas, Duke University, USA and Eileen Chow, Harvard University, USA Through analyses of a wide range of Chinese literary and visual texts from the beginning of the twentieth century through the contemporary period, the thirteen essays in this volume challenge the view that canonical and popular culture are self-evident and diametrically opposed categories, and instead argue that the two cultural sensibilities are inextricably bound up with one another.

Forbidden Sex, Forbidden Texts New India’s Gay Poets Hoshang Merchant The book argues that there is no monolithic homosexuality; there are only homosexualities, that is, there are as many reasons for being gay as there are gays. Some people are born gay, some have gayness thrust upon them, and some do, indeed, achieve to great gayness. Representation of homosexuality/homoeroticism, as it is understood today, is thus a western import. The act and public/social discourses on same-sex love are still illegal; it is, according to many, against the Indian “tradition;” and a sense of “history” is seriously problematic when we dig out for a past tradition of homoerotic love and desire. 2008: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2: 284pp Hb: 978-0-415-48451-0: $100.00 £50.00
