Souls with Longing

Representations of Honor and Love in Shakespeare - Edited by Bernard J. Dobski and Dustin A. Gish

978-0-7391-6541-6 $85.00, Cloth 978-0-7391-6542-3 $34.95, Paper Imprint: Lexington Books October 2011 316pp Size: 6 x 9 Category: Literature (Shakespeare & Contemporaries)

The Book:

Souls with Longing focuses on the images of honor love in the plays and poetry of William Shakespeare. It illuminates the yearning for immortality and eternity which animates the human longing for and pursuit of both honor and love. By taking seriously these portraits of honor and love as they shape and are shaped by the political, religious, and social contexts in which Shakespeare dramatically situates them, individual chapters are oriented around a single coherent theme. Souls with Longing demonstrates that Shakespeare’s representation of the longing for immortality which inspires our pursuit of honor and love has much to teach us about ourselves as well as the nature of the world we construct all around us.

The Authors:

Bernard J. Dobski is assistant professor of political science at Assumption College, Massachusetts. Dustin A. Gish is visiting assistant professor at College of the Holy Cross, Massachusetts.

They Suck, They Bite, They Eat, They Kill

The Meaning of Supernatural Monsters in Young Adult Fiction -By Joni Richards Bodart

978-0-8108-8227-0 $45.00, Cloth Imprint: The Scarecrow Press December 2011 256pp Size: 5.5 x 8.5 Series: Scarecrow Studies in Young Adult Literature Category: Young Adult Literature (Literary Criticism) Includes: Bibliography; Index The Book: Teen readers have always been fascinated by monsters, but lately it seems like every other title written for young adults is about vampires, zombies, or werewolves. These titles are controversial as they look at the parts of life and human nature that adults prefer to keep hidden from teenagers. However, this is also a major part of why they are so important: these books provide a literal example of how ignoring life’s dangers won’t make them go away and they demonstrate that ignorance of danger puts one at greater risk. This book examines six different monsters that appear: vampires, shape-shifters, zombies, unicorns, angels, and demons. Beginning with a discussion of the meaning of monsters in cultures all over the world, subsequent chapters discuss the history and most important incarnations of the aforementioned monsters. Titles featuring the same kind of monsters are compared, and interviews with authors provide insight into why they wrote these titles and information on why they are important. The bibliography at the end of the volume includes a comprehensive list of titles featuring the various monsters. This book will be useful for parents, teachers, and anyone else wanting to understand why teens want to read books in this genre and what some of the benefits of reading them might be. The Author: Joni Richards Bodart is assistant professor in the School of Library and Information Science at San José State University. She is the author of The World’s Best Thin Books: What to Read When Your Book Report is Due Tomorrow (Scarecrow, 2000), Radical Reads: 101 YA Novels on the Edge (Scarecrow, 2002), and Radical Reads 2: Working with the Newest Edgy Titles for Teens (Scarecrow, 2010).

The Rhetoric of the Unselfconscious in D. H. Lawrence Verbalising the Non-Verbal in the Lady Chatterley Novels - By Masami Nakabayashi

978-0-7618-5533-0 $27.95, Paper Imprint: University Press of America June 2011 182pp Size: 6 x 9 Category: Literary Criticism (Books & Reading) The Book: In this study of the Lady Chatterley novels, Masami Nakabayashi pays particular attention to D.H. Lawrence’s language for the feelings and for the life of the unselfconscious, sexual body. The novels constantly find ways of verbalising the characters’ internalised experiences as they occur in states of unselfconsciousness. Lawrence’s language for sensual feelings and emotions has always been regarded as simply ‘sexual’ and no previous critics have explored or made sense of the complexities of his peculiar, but extremely sophisticated, writing practice in the Lady Chatterley novels. Lawrence was a habitual reviser of his work, and, despite the availability of reliable texts in the Cambridge edition, few critics have traced the nature and significance of his changes from one draft to the next. By examining and analysing the novels’ particular linguistic revisions, Masami Nakabayashi reveals the textual impulse behind Lawrence’s original conception and its subsequent change and development. The Author: Masami Nakabayashi obtained his PhD degree from the University of Nottingham in July 2006, and is an associate professor in the Department of English Language, Culture & Communication at Sagami Women’s University, Japan. Table of Contents: Introduction; Chapter One: Problems with Lady Chatterley’s Lover; Chapter Two: Version 1: Narrating Unselfconscious Sensual Experience; Chapter Three: Version 2: Experimenting with a Sexual Vocabulary; Chapter Four: Version 3: Addressing a Readership; Conclusion

Writing Postcolonial France

Haunting, Literature, and the Maghreb - By Fiona Barclay

978-0-7391-4503-6 $65.00, Cloth Imprint: Lexington Books August 2011 196pp Size: 6 X 9 Category: Literary Criticism (European/French)

The Book: This book examines the way in which France has failed to come to terms with the end of its empire, and is now haunted by the legacy of its colonial relationship with North Africa. It examines the form assumed by the ghosts of the past in fiction from a range of genres (travel writing, detective fiction, life writing, historical fiction, women’s writing) produced within metropolitan France, and assesses whether moments of haunting may in fact open up possibilities for a renewed relational structure of cultural memory. By viewing metropolitan France through the prism of its relationship with its former colonies in North Africa, the book maps the complexities of contemporary France, demonstrating an emerging postcoloniality within France itself. The Author: Fiona Barclay is lecturer in the school of languages, cultures, and religions at the University of Stirling. Table of Contents: Introduction; Chapter 1: The Return of the Colonial in Le Clézio, Bona and Sebbar; Chapter 2: 17 October 1961: Haunting in Kettane, Sebbar, Maspero and Daeninckx; Chapter 3: Writing from Algeria: Haunted Narratives in Cardinal and Cixous; Chapter 4: Abjection: The Stranger Within in Prévost and Bouraoui; Afterword

Dead Masters

Mentoring and Intertextuality in Samuel Johnson - By Anthony E. Lee

978-1-61146-075-9 $75.00, Cloth Imprint: Lehigh University Press September 2011 285pp Size: 6 x 9 Category: Literary Criticism (European / English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh)

The Book:

Dead Masters utilizes a variety of critical perspectives—for example, the tools of Bloomean anxiety of influence, post-colonial and deconstructive criticism, and explicative analysis—under the generalized and flexible rubric of mentoring to explore the processes of textual influence, mentoring relationships, and cultural authority within Johnson’s work. The goals of this book include the consolidation of mentoring as a fruitful critical perspective from which to understand Johnson; the establishment of an inter-textual framework for understanding Johnson; and the effort to offer a series of readings of Johnson that more fully divulge the power and complexity of his writing. The book further seeks to effect via the mediation of a series of pragmatic readings, a rapprochement between the theoretical divide separating psychological interpretations of Johnson (interpersonal mentoring encounters) and linguistic and formal interpretations, particularly inter-textuality.

The Author:

Anthony W. Lee teaches composition at Arkansas Tech University.

Table of Contents:

Acknowledgements; Short Titles; Introduction - Mentoring, Intertextuality, and Samuel Johnson; Chapter One - Johnson’s Symbolic Mentors: Addison, Dryden, and Rambler 86; Chapter Two - The Poetics of Gloom: Samuel Johnson as Intertextual Critic; Chapter Three - Between Texts: Intertextual Brackets in Johnson’s Shakespeare and Milton; Chapter Four - “Under the dominion of a Name:” Johnson’s Pope; Chapter Five - Mentoring and Mimicry in Boswell; Bibliography; Index

The Book: Look around you. The world is more homogenous than you think. Far too often, distinctions among people, places, and things are matters of degree rather than kind. Many are illusory. As satire, Little House of Imaginary Distinctions will complement Steven Carter’s previous book, Little House of Oxymorons.

Picturing Religious Experience

George Herbert, Calvin, and the Scriptures - By Daniel W. Doerksen

978-1-61149-356-6 $75.00, Cloth Imprint: University of Delaware Press September 2011 245pp Size: 6 X 9 Category: Literature And Language (Poetry)

The Book: Little has been said about the relationship of Herbert’s writings to those of Calvin, yet those writings were abundant and influential in Herbert’s Church of England. Accordingly, Picturing Religious Conflicts studies Herbert’s poetry in relation to those writings, particularly regarding the spiritual conflicts that the poet himself said would be found depicted in his book of poems. Much more than is generally realized, Calvin wrote about the experience of living the Christian life which is also Herbert’s subject in many of his poems. The Author: Daniel W. Doerksen holds an appointment as honorary research professor from the University of New Brunswick, Fredericton, Canada.

The New Complete Code of Hammurabi - By H.-Dieter Viel

978-0-7618-5656-6 $120.00, Cloth Imprint: University Press of America September 2011 794pp Size: 6 x 9 Category: Foreign Language Study (Ancient Languages )

The Book:

Hammurabi, a Babylonian king from 18th century B.C., is widely admired and respected, but not because of a giant wall or tower that reaches toward the sky. Instead, Hammurabi’s fame is due to an approximately eight-foot-tall stela made out of black diorite. This monumental stela was excavated in the acropolis of Susa from 1901-1902. It contains the world’s first written set of laws on a large and complex scale. The Hammurabi Codex represents the largest coherent monument to ancient Babylonian literature and is thus an excellent reflection of the ancient Babylonian language. While several translations, transcriptions, and handwritten illustrations of the Codex already exist, anyone attempting to deal with the theme in all its aspects will find it necessary to leaf through several books, which is not only a confusing exercise but also expensive. The New Complete Code of Hammurabi presents the Codex not only in ancient Babylonian, but also in Neo-Assyrian. All of the signs from the original Codex are shown, with their meanings provided in list form. Viel also provides an English translation of the entire Codex. This much-needed text sheds new light upon the Code of Hammurabi, making it accessible to all.

The Author:

H.-Dieter Viel was born in Nidderau, Germany in 1946. He has spent many years studying ancient Oriental philology and is now retired. The New Complete Code of Hammurabi was originally published in German in 2005.

Table of Contents:

Personal Comments; Structure of Codex Hammurabi; Special Characters and Comparison; Proper Names; Grammar; Meaning of the Cuneiform Signs, Lists, and Different Tables; The Codex; Transcription; Chronological Tables of the Rulers in this Area; The Development of the Script; Units of Measurement, Weights, and Time; List of References

Darwinism in Argentina Major Texts (1845-1909) - By Leila Gómez

978-1-61148-386-4 $70.00, Cloth Imprint: Bucknell University Press October 2011 258pp Size: 6 x 9 Category: Literary Criticism (Caribbean & Latin American)

The Book:

Darwinism in Argentina brings together essays, letters, short-stories, and public lectures by travelers, scientists, writers, and politicians about Darwin and the theory of evolution in 19th century Argentina. This selection of texts provides a thorough overview of the socio-ideological implications of the theory of evolution in South America, as well as the intellectual debate this scientific theory promoted in the discourses of fiction, law, history, and medicine in the formation of modern Argentina. This anthology includes texts from William H. Hudson, Francisco Muñiz, Florentino Ameghino, Eduardo Holmberg, Domingo F. Sarmiento, Hermann Burmeister, Perito Moreno, Leopoldo Lugones, José María Ramos Mejía, and José Ingenieros, among others. Many of these texts have not been translated to English or reprinted until this edition, which was originally published in Spanish in 2008. Leila Gomez s introduction reconstructs the historical-scientific contexts of the Darwinist debate in Argentina, the role of paleontology as modern discipline in South American countries, and the tensions between metropolitan and local scientific knowledge. Both the anthology and the introduction present a panorama of Darwin and evolution in Argentina, and the complex mechanism of inclusion and exclusion of indigenous, African descendants, mestizos, and immigrants in the modern nation. Darwinism in Argentina provides critical perspectives on evolutionism in South America that will interest students and specialists in a wide variety of disciplines.

Leila Gomez is associate professor of Spanish at the University of Colorado at Boulder.

Reading John Steinbeck in Eastern Europe - By Danica Cerce 978-0-7618-5625-2 $25.95, Paper Imprint: University Press of America October 2011 144pp Size: 6 x 9 Category: Literary Criticism (General)

The Book: Reading John Steinbeck in Eastern Europe explores the injustice toward Steinbeck’s works in Eastern European countries in the period of communist regimes. Assessed through an ideological lens, their value was in their usefulness to the oppressive social and political mindset, which they undoubtedly served-not only The Grapes of Wrath, with its agenda of social solutions, but also works that clearly indicate that Steinbeck was venturing into new themes and forms. By taking up various avenues of approach and illuminating the most compelling rationale for reading Steinbeck’s works Reading John Steinbeck in Eastern Europe is an interesting record of past perceptions, stereotypes and myths, and a testament to a new era. The Author:

Danica Cerce is an assistant professor of literature in English at the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia. Her Steinbeck publications include Pripovedništvo Johna Steinbecka (The Narrative Prose of John Steinbeck), numerous articles in academic journals, book chapters, and translations into Slovene. Her other research areas are Australian literature of social realism, contemporary Australian Indigenous literature, and Slovene literature.

Table of Contents:

Preface; Acknowledgments; Introduction; Part One: Steinbeck and Eastern Europe; Chapter 1: A Political Reading of Steinbeck’s Works in Eastern Europe; Chapter 2: Steinbeck in the Slovene Cultural Arena: An Overview of Steinbeck Criticism; Chapter 3: Steinbeck’s Influence on Slovene Social Realism; Chapter 4: About the Slovene Translations; Chapter 5: The Language of Of Mice and Men as a Challenge for a Translator; Part Two: On Specific Works; Chapter 6: The Grapes of Wrath as Communist Propaganda; Chapter 7: In Dubious Battle as a lesson of Blind Commitment; Chapter 8: The Status of East of Eden in Slovenia and the Former Yugoslavia; Part Three: A Comparative Reading of John Steinbeck and Frank Hardy; Chapter 9: Between Admiration and Rejection: On the Parallels between Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath and Hardy’s Power without Glory; Chapter 10: The Portrayal of Otherness in Steinbeck’s Tortilla Flat and Hardy’s ‘Borker Stories’; Conclusion; Works Cited; A Bibliography of Works by John Steinbeck; Index

Science, Politics, and Friendship in the Works of Thomas Lovell Beddoes - By Ute Berns

978-1-61149-367-2 $90.00, Cloth Imprint: University of Delaware Press October 2011 374pp Size: 6 x 9 Category: Literary Criticism (European)

The Book:

This study revaluates the work of the scientist and radical, poet and dramatist and English exile in Germany Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803-1849). While his writing has elicited high praise from poets ranging from Robert Browning through Ezra Pound to John Ashbery, scholars have frequently neglected it on grounds of its purportedly morbid and opaque eccentricity. Countering this perception, this book relocates Beddoes’s poetry, drama and prose at the centre of Anglo-German debates on aesthetics and life science, politics and theatre in an early nineteenth-century European context. Aided by his letters from Germany, the book re-creates the intercultural discursive universe in which Beddoes easily moves from Shakespeare’s plays or the aesthetic experiments of Shelley and his circle to Goethe and to topics debated among Heinrich Heine and the Jungdeutschen, from the most advanced contemporary scientific research to the postNapoleonic politics of the German radical students’ organisations, and from Byron, Baillie and London’s illegitimate theatre to Schiller’s and Tieck’s highly charged reflections on male-male friendship. The study combines historicist strategies with theories of performance, performativity, and visuality as it focuses, in particular, on Beddoes’s major and defining work, Death’s Jest-Book, first completed in 1829 and published posthumously after much revision in 1850. The book pays close attention to the dialogue Beddoes’s writing maintains with Early Modern literature, and it highlights the proto-modernist features that link his work to that of Büchner, Grabbe and a European theatre avantgarde. This innovative study of Beddoes’s work, cutting across current investigations into politics, gender, and science in intercultural Romantic Studies should be of interest to scholars and students of British Romantic and Victorian studies as well as of German Vormärz studies, and to students and scholars of drama and theatre as well as Queer studies. The Author: Ute Berns is professor of English Literature at the University of Hamburg. Table of Contents: Acknowledgements; Introduction; Part 1: Discursive and Tropological Preliminaries; 1. Discursive Horizons in Beddoes’s Letters; 2. Visual Figuration and Performativity in Death’s Jest-Book; Part 2: The Politics of Revolutionary Bonapartism; 3. The Republican Promise of Revolutionary Bonapartism; 4. Roman Ideals in “Unroman Times”; 5. Caesarist Visions of History; Part 3: The Radical Politics of Friendship; 6.
