ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Milne, Lesley, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, When it was published this was the full, post-glasnost critical biography of Mikhail Bulgakov (), a great comic writer whose works are regarded as modern classics. This account of Bulgakov's career as playwright and prose-writer examines all his works in the context of the changing demands put upon artists in the Soviet Union of the s and s, who were faced with the choice of integrity at the price of silence, or publication and production at the price of conformism with the totalitarian state. Lesley Milne traces through Bulgakov's career an ethical concept of the writer's role, his response to his time, and his search for an audience in and beyond that time.

The Dynamics of Company Profits

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mueller, Dennis C. / Cubbin, John, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, Do company profits eventually converge on a common, competitive level? How long does the convergence process take? This book seeks to answer these questions through a comparison of company profitability using time series data compiled at the firm level and at the industry level in Canada, France, Japan, Sweden, West Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The emphasis is on long run, dynamic processes and the perspective is that of Joseph Schumpeter, with profits converging if at all to competitive levels only in the long run. The basic methodology of the book is presented in one chapter, with the subsequent chapters focusing on results for individual countries. A summary chapter presenting major conclusions and implications concludes the book.

Kant's Critique of Pure Reason: An Introduction

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Buroker, Jill Vance, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, In this new introductory textbook to Kant's Critique of Pure Reason, Jill Vance Buroker explains the role of this first Critique in Kant's Critical project and offers a line-by-line reading of the major arguments in the text. She situates Kant's views in relation both to his predecessors and to contemporary debates, explaining his Critical philosophy as a response to the failure of rationalism and the challenge of skepticism. Paying special attention to Kant's notoriously difficult vocabulary, she explains the strengths and weaknesses of his arguments, while leaving the final assessment up to the reader. Intended to be read alongside the Critique (also published by Cambridge University Press as part of The Cambridge Edition of the Works of Immanuel Kant in Translation), this guide is accessible to readers with little background in the history of philosophy, but should also be a valuable resource for more advanced students.

Acts of Attention, Second Edition: The Poems of D. H.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gilbert, Sandra M., PUBLISHER: Southern Illinois University Press, In the Preface to this second edition of her first book, Sandra M. Gilbert addresses the inevitable question: "How can you be a feminist and a Lawrentian?" The answer is intellectually satisfying and historically revealing as she traces an array of early twentieth-century women of letters, some of them proto-feminists, who revered Lawrence despite his countless statements that would today be condemned as "sexist." H.D. regarded him as one of her "initiators" whose words "flamed alive, blue serpents on the page." Anais Nin insisted that he "had a complete realization of the feelings of women." By focusing on Lawrence's own definition of a poem as an "act of attention," Gilbert demonstrates how he developed the mature style of "Birds, Beasts and Flowers, "his finest collection of poetry. She discusses this volume at length, examines many of his later poems in detail, including the hymns from "The Plumed Serpent, Pansies, Nettles, "and "More Pansies, "and ends with a close look at "Last Poems. "Her detailed examination provides a clearer image of Lawrence as an artist--an artist whose poetry complements his novels and whose fiction enriches but does not outshine his poetry.

Book of the Fourth World: Reading the Native Americas

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brotherston, Gordon, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, The Book of the Fourth World offers detailed analyses of texts that range far back into the centuries of civilised life from what is now Latin- and Anglo-America. At the time of its 'discovery', the American continent was identified as the Fourth World of our planet. In the course of just a few centuries its original inhabitants, though settled there for millennia and countable in many millions, have come to be perceived as a marginal if not entirely dispensable factor in the continent's destiny. Today the term has been taken up again by its native peoples, to describe their own world: both its threatened present condition, and its political history, which stretches back thousands of years before Columbus. In order to explore the literature of this world, Brotherston uses primary sources that have traditionally been ignored because they have not conformed to Western definitions of oral and written literature, such as the scrolls of the Algonkin, the knotted strings (Quipus) of the Inca, Navajo dry-paintings, and the encyclopedic pages of Meso-America's screenfold books.

Written in Stone: A Story of English Heritage Sites Told

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Sharp, Jill, PUBLISHER: English Heritage, Written in Stone takes a journey around England, visiting sites that have inspired the writers whose works shaped England's literary heritage. The sites vary enormously, from the Jacobean grandeur of Audley End in Essex to the mysterious Neolithic burial monument Wayland's Smithy, and have influenced writers in different ways - some have been the birthplace or home of writers, or places they have visited at significant moments in their creative lives, others have provided an atmosphere or a setting for a literary work and some have even become characters themselves. Certain authors are met frequently on the journey round England, such as Jane Austen and Chaucer, while others are encountered only in passing, but all their works are inspiring and many are of outstanding repute - Shakespeare's plays and sonnets, romantic lyric poems and some great realist novels. When we arrive at Whitby Abbey, Bram Stoker and Dracula are there before us; at Stonehenge we meet Hardy and Tess of the D'Urbervilles, and a veritable round-table of historians, poets and novelists await us at Tintagel.
