Milton and Hero Journey

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Milton and Hero Journey This work aims to analyse two works of John Milton, Paradise Lost and Samson Agonistes on the point of intersection of five main Jungian archetypes and hero journey within the framework of epic poetry and epic hero. Taking these main concepts into consideration, it was argued that two mentioned works stand in the meeting point of these two different approaches. In one chapter, epic is examined as a genre as well as the concept of hero in epic poetry with distinguishing elements separating it from other hero figures. Another focuses on how the main archetypes emerge in different steps of hero journey and how the journey process merges into one with the main archetypes to consist a multi-layered structure in the mentioned works. As a result, it was argued that in two major works of John Milton, one of the most distinguished poets of English literature as well as the epic tradition consist of the concepts of archetypes and hero journey in a grift and eloquent way. With these two very important works in which the traditional meets the innovative features, influence of John Milton is still existent on both poets and critics. ····· 10361114707

Faces of Christianity

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Unlike in other African American literary works where Christianity constantly features as a theme, this text delves into the main mould of Christianity as a character in the works of James Baldwin. A character is seen within a wider spectrum so as to include both ideas and/or issues presented in a work of art exhibiting unique traits. Christianity has been animated to be able to interact with other ideas with moral, dispositional and emotional qualities. This text undoubtedly opens new vistas in Baldwin`s works with respect to Christianity even as it gives practicing Christians a feedback on the impact of their faith on society. It is envisaged that students and lecturers of both literature and religion will find this book handy. ····· 10361114509

Ntozake Shange`s Choreo-poetry: Celebration of An Authentic Form

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The 20th Century was witness to a rise in African American Drama as it introduced many prominent figures such as Amiri Baraka, Ed Bullins and August Wilson. However, its distinctness lies in the flourishing of a female canon led by Alice Childress and Lorainne Hansberry in mid 1900`s, which is continued today in the works of many contemporary dramatists such as Adrienne Kennedy and Ntozake Shange, who have taken on the task of giving voice to the two times suppressed black woman. Among these playwrights, Ntozake Shange has been the most strikingly original one since her search for identity is integrated into her writing in terms of both content and form. While she experiments on the smallest segments of her individual and collective self, her writing transcends over rules of language as well as genre. It does not suffice to say her writing reflects a search for identity as what she experiences is a quest for authenticity... ····· 10361114132

Masochistic Men and Female Vampires: A New Approach to Rape Fantasy

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Rape fantasy, in the sense of being raped, in men might seem a faulty designation. On the other hand, there is historical evidence in literary tradition where a lover takes a masochistic role, which lies at the heart of the fantasy of being raped, and suffers for the love of the lady, as in courtly love tradition. Romance literature may be considered as one of the earliest examples of literary works written in this tradition where the masochistic lover is exalted. Very similar to the Romance literature of Medieval Age, Gothic literature and literary works that consist of gothic elements provide examples of incidents which are read as the manifestation of the kind of rape fantasy in which men take passive role rather than an active one. Among the many texts with elements of vampirism written in the Romantic and Victorian periods, for the purpose of this study, Samuel Taylor Coleridge`s Christabel, John Keats` La Belle Dame sans Merci and Lamia, Bram Stoker`s Dracula and Henry Rider Haggard`s She are chosen as the focus to reveal how they use the vampire as literary trope to convey rape fantasy in men. ····· 10361113808

Motivation and Interest in Reading

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Although English is not the medium of instruction in many countries, accessing key information at higher education in a great variety of fields is often dependent on having reading ability in English. Therefore, reading is the most important skill for foreign language learners because they have little contact with the target language outside the classroom, and also most of the information in English comes through reading. In contexts like this, students will get more opportunities to read rather than to listen to English. That is why the main emphasis in most programs of English as a foreign language (EFL) is usually on the written skills especially reading. ····· 10361113451

Womanhood and Power

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
In the words of Wole Soyinka as quoted by Florence Stratton vision is eternally of man`s own creation,women`s function is one of collaboration in man`s vision(51).In a similar vein Emecheta`s Nnu Ego finally realizes that it is a man`s world which women will always help to build (186).The two quotations above make the question of female agency critical.Achebe`s Things Fall Apart shows women occupying the marginal space and leaving the center stage to man.They are kneeling on one knee and drinking the dregs left by men,if we extend the Anasi image.And the question to ask is:To what extent is this marginal space a place of empowerment On the other hand Ngugi wa Thiongo throws women into the public fray and makes them fight for their rights.He uses the familial or social juxtaposition of two female characters, Muthoni and Nyambura who in their responses to male domination are the antithesis of each other.Nyambura passively submits and Muthoni,the radical sister who challenges patriachal authority. In Ngugi`s conception challenging patriarchy is suicidal. ····· 10361113392

Edgar Allan Poe`s Gothic Interiors

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This study focuses primarily on architectural and interior design in Edgar Allan Poe`s Gothic fiction. Poe`s Gothic is one of ciphers and codes, octagonal red rooms and decaying walls. A fantasia of entrapment that exceeds the ordinary limited space. His houses breathe, expand and encrust their inhabitants. And it is not just a mathematical disorder...the architecture of every space is carefully chosen to match the personality of its owner. Poe`s space is an aesthetic movement. ····· 10361102417

Language and literacy in lives of Southeast Asian immigrant women

Immigrant women today represent mothers of citizens in many nations tomorrow. They are seeking for real solutions about challenges they face in language and literacy barriers.

This book was produced with biliteracy developments among Taiwan`s immigrant women in mind. It provides a multifaceted perspective by offering valuable insights into daily practices of biliteracy in lives of immigrant women and argues for a fundamental reconceptualization in immigrant women`s everyday biliteracy developments. This book will be of interest to a wide range of readers. It is particularly aimed at researchers, scholars, graduate students, university lecturers, educators, curriculum revisers, foreign/second language teachers for adult immigrant learners, language policy makers, and literacy planners.

Children`s Fiction

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Children`s fiction written by 19th century British authors appear to be imperialistic, racist or Euro-centric. The stories promote a Western perspective and celebrate the supremacy of the `white` culture. This book, however, suggests that far from being Euro-centric, the selected fiction transcends cultural and national boundaries. They celebrate universal and cross-cultural moral values and serves to educate and delight children in beautiful effective language. It is this work`s contention that children should not be deprived from reading these great works that can benefit them in terms of language acquisition, the development of their imagination and the enjoyment of entertaining,yet moral, stories. ····· 10361101756

Spivak and a Postcolonial Joyce

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The present reading of James Joyce`s Dubliners follows the path of a postcolonial critical trend in Joycean studies. In the light of ideas and theories of the Indian literary critic, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, this book takes a postcolonial feminist stand in reading Joyce. Firstly, it deals with the notion of linguistic subordination and collective silence among Dubliners in general and female Dubliners in particular. Secondly, it explores the extent to which male characters are responsible for their own plight and that of their female counterparts. Finally comes an analysis of the Othering process in play among Dubliners with the aim of decoding colonial silences and uncovering their often untold stories. This comparative study of male and female characters of Dubliners in a contextual framework lights upon a unique aspect of the work`s narrative technique and form which is often unfairly regarded as unoriginal in comparison with Joyce`s later more innovative forms. Interestingly though, Joyce`s narration of the stories of Dubliners proves to be revolutionary in that it provides a third space through which Spivak`s subaltern can be heard. ····· 10361101569

FANTASY AND REALITY IN ABRAM TERC`S EARLY PROSE

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
In February 1966 the Soviet writer Andrej Sinjavsky was sentenced to seven years of forced labour for making anti-Soviet propaganda. The alleged propaganda appeared in the form of fantastic prose fiction which had been published in the West under the pseudonym Abram Terc. This study is focused on the writings that figured as the principal corpora delicti during this once notorious trial. Terc`s fantastic writings which abound in playful and sinister nonsense can be read as an indication of what impossibly could be said in the Soviet Union, or to be more precise, in what form it was forbidden to write in those days. ····· 10361101384

Converts, Apostates, and Hermits

The book explores the dynamics between gender and religious conversion in the early modern English theatre. The analysis of three early modern plays - William Shakespeare`s The Most Excellent Historie of The Merchant of Venice, Philip Massinger`s The Renegado, and Margaret Cavendish`s The Religious - reveals the complexity of early modern notions of gender when facing religious conversion. Of considerable interest are the insight of an early modern female writer on the topic of conversion and the power negotiations between the constructs of early modern masculinity and femininity. ····· 10361100959

Linguistic Analysis: Rhetoric Strategies in Alice Walker`s Narratives

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This is an innovative book in which the author, Dr. Robert Matunda, analyzes rhetorical strategies in Alice Walker`s four narratives with the goal of expanding the body of investigation relating linguistics to literature. Particularly, the author demonstrates how Walker`s linguistic elements are mediums of messages. Equally, while using various linguistic paradigms, the author presents to his readers significant cultural values of African and African-American people as envisaged in Walker`s selected narratives. Finally, Dr. Matunda demonstrates that though we do not frequently imagine that writers purposefully manipulate the linguistic features of their creative work, it is clear that Walker is very much concerned with managing many linguistic elements to achieve her artistic effects, and this fact only reinforces the impression that Walker is an artist of complexity and depth. ····· 10361100942

Intersecting Pan-Africanisms: Africa, North America and the Caribbean

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This is a fascinating book which addresses an important topic that remained dormant for decades not to say centuries. No previous research had analyzed pan-Africanism in a manner as complex,insightful and informative as Dr Traore does in his book. It raises in a `cutting edge` manner the problems that mined the relations between Blacks and all those who affiliate themselves in one way or the other with the African continent. The book succeeds in staying away from essentialism and skillfully drags Postcolonialim in the pan-Africanist debate and the author does that in such a magnificent way in the sections where Francophone and Anglophone African authors like Ama Ata Aidoo, Ayi Kwei Armah, Kofi Awoonor, Kofi Anyidoho, L.S. Senghor, and several others are brought into the discussion. One of the features that impresses much about the book is the passion and critical mind with which the author approaches the woes of contemporary Africa, and then links those problems to the failure of African political leaders, a failure that the author ultimately weaves within the pan-Africanist debate. ····· 1036199802

Dem Anfang auf der Spur

In der Geschichte des Wissens in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts erscheint die Detektivgeschichte als ein neues Genre, das geradezu paradigmatisch unterschiedliche Diskurse umgreift und in einem wirkungsvollen Narrativ literarisch modelliert. Die sensationellen Einsichten und Erkenntnisformen so unterschiedlicher Disziplinen wie der Evolutionsbiologie, der Archäologie, der Virologie und der Psychoanalyse werden aber nicht nur in der Detektivliteratur sowohl thematisch aufgenommen als auch strukturell durchgespielt - Wissenschaftler wie Charles Darwin, Heinrich Schliemann, Robert Koch und Sigmund Freud arbeiten dort, wo sie als Schriftsteller in eigener Sache auftreten, ihrerseits an der Entwicklung eines detektivischen Narrativs mit. Dieses Buch untersucht in exemplarischen Einzellektüren die epistemischen Voraussetzungen und hermeneutischen Konsequenzen eines zwischen Literatur und Wissenschaften changierenden Erzählverfahrens, dessen eigentliche Suche dem verlorenen Anfang gilt. Taking a slightly new approach to a staple subject of literary studies, the author identifies detective fiction as an inherently interdiscursive genre whose etiological narrative emerges in literary as well as scientific texts from the second half of the 19th century onwards. The volume focuses on the scientific fields of evolutionary theory, archaeology, bacteriology, and psychoanalysis, shedding a literary light on works by Charles Darwin, Robert Koch, Heinrich Schliemann, and Sigmund Freud. Literary works analysed range from well-known and beloved representatives of detective fiction such as Arthur Conan Doyle`s `The Hound of the Baskervilles` (1902) to more rarely discussed texts such as Theodor Fontane`s `Unterm Birnbaum` (1885). ····· 1036194841

Remarque Revisited

Aus Anlass des 50. Todestages von Erich Maria Remarque im September 2020 beschäftigen sich die Beiträge dieses Bandes im Schwerpunkt mit bislang nahezu unberücksichtigten Aspekten von Leben, Werk und Rezeption des Autors. Nicht nur die argentinische Comic-Version des Romans »Der Weg zurück« erfährt eine detaillierte Analyse, auch die Adaption der Werke Remarques in Comics und Mangas aus China, Japan und Korea werden eingehend untersucht. Remarques aufklärerische Überzeugung wird sowohl am Roman über ein deutsches Konzentrationslager, »Der Funke Leben«, gespiegelt als auch aus seinen didaktischen Erfahrungen als Lehrer hergeleitet und auf sein Gesamtwerk übertragen. Weitere Beiträge beschäftigen sich u.a. mit den literarischen Reaktionen auf den Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkriegs in der sozialdemokratischen Exil-Zeitung »Neuer Vorwärts« und der Behandlung des Bundeswehreinsatzes in Afghanistan in der deutschsprachigen Gegenwartsliteratur. To mark the 50th anniversary of Erich Maria Remarque`s death in September 2020 the contributions of this volume focus on almost unnoticed aspects of the life, work and reception of the author. Both the Argentinian comic version of his novel `Der Weg zurück` is analysed in detail as well as the adaptation of his works in comics and mangas in China, Japan and Korea. Remarque`s enlightening certitude is reflected in both his novel concerning a German Concentration camp `Der Funke Leben` and in his didactic experiences as a teacher and thus transferred on his complete works. Further contributions deal with the reactions on the outbreak of the Second World War in the social-democratic exile paper `Neuer Vorwärts` and the treatment of the Bundeswehr mission in Afghanistan in contemporary German literature. ····· 1036194837
