  • Humour, subjectivity and world politics
    Alister Wedderburn
    What can a turn to humour offer International Relations? This book suggests that a focus on comic practice can illuminate the relationship between global politics, culture and the everyday. It odders a theoretically rich examination of humour’s contribution to the making and unmaking of subjectivity, identity and community at a range of empirical sites. ...

  • Estranging the Novel
    Katarzyna Bartoszyńska
    For centuries, the standard account of the development of the novel focused on the rise of realism in English literature. Studies of early novels connected the form to various aspects of British life across the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, including the burgeoning middle class, the growth of individualism, and the emergence of democracy and the nation-state. But as the ...

  • Automatic
    Timothy Wientzen
    The advent of the twentieth century famously brought about new personal and political freedoms, including radical changes in voting rights and expressions of gender and sexuality. Yet writers and cultural critics shared a sense that modern life reduced citizens to automatons capable of interacting with the world in only the most reflexive ways. In Automatic, Timothy Wientzen as...

  • Fragments, Genius and Madness
    Elisa Segnini
    At the turn of the nineteenth century, as inquiries about degeneration shaped medical, sociological and anthropological discourses, masks flourished as portraits, ornaments, and disguises. This comparative study explores tales that revolve around masks and mask-making in relation to nineteenth-century thought, offering innovative readings of fictional and dramatic works by Max ...

  • Spatial Plots
    Marzia Beltrami
    In discussions about plot, causality and chronology are sometimes held out as the only possible organising principles. And yet readers often transmute fragmented writings, parallel storylines, or tales within tales into a meaningful whole. Other patterns play a role in guiding our attention and, as Beltrami suggests, they invite us to make sense of narratives as spaces to be ex...

  • Contemporary French Poetry
    Daisy Sainsbury
    Over the last forty years, contemporary French poetry has been living in a state of crisis. Pronounced dead - or worse, irrelevant - it has sought to reassert its value, define its current specificity, and delineate its difference from the poetic practices of the past. But what are the defining contours of poetry today, given the sheer variety of practices that make up the cont...

  • Theodor Fontane
    Brian Tucker
    What happens when fashionable forms of unserious speech prove to be contagious, when they adulterate and weaken communicative spheres that rely on honesty, trust, and sincerity? Demonstrating how the tension between irony and avowal constitutes a central conflict in Fontane’s works, this book argues that his best-known society novels play out a struggle between the incompatible...

  • Narratives Crossing Borders
    Which is the identity of a traveler who is constantly on the move between cultures and languages? What happens with stories when they are transmitted from one place to another, when they are retold, remade, translated and re-translated? What happens with the scholars themselves, when they try to grapple with the kaleidoscopic diversity of human expression in a constantly changi...

  • Decolonizing Memory
    Jill Jarvis
    The magnitude of the legal violence exercised by the French to colonize and occupy Algeria (1830-1962) is such that only aesthetic works have been able to register its enduring effects. In Decolonizing Memory Jill Jarvis examines the power of literature to provide what demographic data, historical facts, and legal trials have not in terms of attesting to and accounting for this...

  • Occupying Memory
    Trevor Hoag
    Occupying Memory investigates the forces of trauma and mourning as deeply rhetorical in order to account for their capacity to seize one’s life. Rather than viewing memory as granting direct access to the past and being readily accessible or pliant to human will, Trevor Hoag exposes how the past is a rhetorical production and that trauma and mourning shatter delusions of sovere...

Yet, since the late twentieth century the United States has claimed more water space than land space, and more water space than perhaps any other country in the world. This watery version of the United States borders some twenty-one countries, particularly in the archipela...

  • Imagination and Science in Romanticism
    Richard C Sha
    Richard C. Sha argues that scientific understandings of the imagination indelibly shaped literary Romanticism. Challenging the idea that the imagination found a home only on the side of the literary, as a mental vehicle for transcending the worldly materials of the sciences, Sha shows how imagination helped to operationalize both scientific and literary discovery. Essentially, ...

  • The Analogy of Signs
    Rory Misiewicz
    The longstanding debate over how God-talk is intelligible gravitates around how we should understand the putative answer, 'by analogy.' For some contemporary Christian theologians, analogy involves an ontological claim about creaturely and divine being (i.e., an analogy of being). For others, it involves a semantic or syntactical structure that legitimates the linguistic perfor...
