Schiff, "Revivalist Fantasy: Alliterative Verse and Nationalist Literary History " English | ISBN: 0814211526 | 2011 | 304 pages | PDF | 2 MB In the book's opening, Schiff argues that the concept of an Alliterative Revival-the allegedly unified fourteenth-century resuscitation of Anglo-Saxon prosodic practices countering a Francophile South- is a nationalist formulation that reduces criticism's ability to engage with the variety of social and political contexts for late-medieval alliterative verse. Schiff explores the ways in which the nationalist assumptions of a critical Revivalism obscure late-medieval poetic meditations on class consolidation, gendered regional economics, imperial politics, and unstable textual cultures. Schiff analyzes transnational translation politics in 'William of Palerne' and its Old French source, 'Guillaume de Palerne,' and undermines the notion that alliterative verse was stubbornly Anglocentric. While examining anti-imperialist energies in the Northwest Midlands of 'Sir Gawain and the Green Knight,' Schiff illuminates the powerful role of women in a dynamic military zone. In a chapter focused on Arthurian texts of the unstable Anglo-Scottish marches, Schiff asserts that nationalist assumptions about alliterative verse disallow us to see practices such as military side-switching and trans-regional poetics. Turning to the socio-material background for the 'Piers Plowman Tradition', Schiff explores cutting-edge writing technologies that played a pivotal role in politicized poetry. Schiff concludes that, besides wrongly projecting national identity into the late-medieval period, Alliterative Revivalism precludes us from appreciating crucial continuities between late-medieval and post-national epochs that share fluid notions of territorial space and political identity.

Free Download Michael Rose, "Revival: Servants of Post Industrial Power: Sociogie Du Travail in Modern France" English | 2017 | ISBN: 1138045020 | EPUB | pages: 244 | 0.9 mb This title was first published in 1979: Deftly combining an analysis of socio-economic change and social institutions with political commentary, intellectual biography and theoretical critique, Michael Rose identifiesthe hidden similarities of the different currents in sociologie du travail and accounts for the popularity of such bold but fragile notions as Mallet's 'new working class' or Touraine's 'post industrial society'. Simultaneously, the relation between sociologie du travail and the state , management and politics is defined and evaluated. Finally, Rose discusses the work of the new generation of investigators emerging after the crisis-point of 1968. His conclusions are relevant not only for the many English speaking social scientistswho have been rediscoveringthe problems of the labour process, but for students of industrial relations, intellectual history, Marxism and modern French society.

Free Download Ford Madox Ford, "Revival: Provence from Minstrels to the Machine: From Minstrels to the Machine" English | 2018 | ISBN: 1138554073 | EPUB | pages: 370 | 2.6 mb "Provence" may perhaps be described as the crystallisation of the main idea running through the Great Trade Route, which we published a year ago. Of that book Mr A.G. McDonnell wrote in the Observer: "It is an Indictment, a Philipic....I know of no books to compare with this since Winwood Reade's Martyrdom of Man" But if "The Great Trade Route" was the destructive onslaught on dubious aspects of contemporary civilisation, "Provence" is the celebration of what might have been and what, according to Mr. Ford, may still yet be - contrasted with what is. For in that triangle of sun-baked , wind-swept, austere yet generous land, bounded as to its base by the Mediterranean and as to its sides, by the Rhone and the Alps, Mr Ford sees all the pride of past European splendour, the small healthy core of Europe's ailing present, the only promise for her future. How and why he sees all this his book alone can reveal, with its history, its moralisings, its descriptions vitalised and clarified by art. |
