        Edmund Spenser and the romance of space

        by Tamsin Badcoe

        Edmund Spenser and the romance of space advances the exploration of literary space into new areas, firstly by taking advantage of recent interdisciplinary interests in the spatial qualities of early modern thought and culture, and secondly by reading literature concerning the art of cosmography and navigation alongside imaginative literature with the purpose of identifying shared modes and preoccupations. The book looks to the work of cultural and historical geographers in order to gauge the roles that aesthetic subjectivity and the imagination play in the development of geographical knowledge: contexts ultimately employed by the study to achieve a better understanding of the place of Ireland in Spenser's writing. The study also engages with recent ecocritical approaches to literary environments, such as coastlines, wetlands, and islands, thus framing fresh readings of Spenser's handling of mixed genres.

        Negotiating the auteur

        Dominique Cabrera, Noémie Lvovsky, Laetitia Masson and Marion Vernoux

        by Julia Dobson

        This book provides the first detailed analysis of the work of four important contemporary directors whose work falls between the reductive labels of 'auteur cinema' and 'popular cinema'. Their work is contextualised within this timely investigation into the shifting relationship between the privileged status of the auteur and questions of genre, gender and cinematic production in France today. This important contribution to understanding the shifting landscapes of contemporary French film identifies an essential intermediacy in the films of these directors, which works to undo a series of dominant oppositions, generic template and contestation, public collectivity and personal intimacy, to offer a new perspective on the location of the political in contemporary French cinema. The four chapters provide detailed critical analysis of films by Dominique Cabrera, Laetitia Masson, Noémie Lvovsky and Marion Vernoux, and present common thread including the possible construction of social intimacy, the political demystification of romance narratives and the role of nostalgia, to argue that their work uses popular genres in order to challenge dominant cultural representation that resonates beyond the immediate parameters of contemporary French cinema. This book will be of interest to researchers working in French and European cinema, to students of Film Studies and French and Francophone Studies, and to film enthusiasts.

        Rereading Chaucer and Spenser

        Dan Geffrey with the New Poete

        by Rachel Stenner, Tamsin Badcoe, Gareth Griffith

        Rereading Chaucer and Spenser is a much-needed volume that brings together established and early career scholars to provide new critical approaches to the relationship between Geoffrey Chaucer and Edmund Spenser. By reading one of the greatest poets of the Middle Ages alongside one of the greatest poets of the English Renaissance, this collection poses questions about poetic authority, influence, and the nature of intertextual relations in a more wide-ranging manner than ever before. With its dual focus on authors from periods often conceived as radically separate, the collection also responds to current interests in periodisation. This approach will engage academics, researchers and students of Medieval and Early Modern culture.

        Kriminalroman

        by Maurizio Giovanni, Doris Nobilia

        Commissario Ricciardi ist ein Ermittler mit einer besonderen Fähigkeit. Der intelligente, melancholische Einzelgänger aus reichem Elternhaus besitzt eine Gabe, die sein Schicksal bestimmt: Er hört die letzten Gedanken von Ermordeten, sieht sie gefangen im Augenblick ihres Todes. Neapel, kurz vor Ostern. In einem Luxusbordell wird die schönste und berühmteste Prostituierte der Stadt ermordet aufgefunden, offensichtlich mithilfe eines Kissens erstickt: Vipera, mit bürgerlichem Namen Maria Rosaria Cennamo. Die Spur führt den charismatischen Commissario schnell zu den beiden Stammkunden der Prostituierten – doch sie scheinen nicht die einzigen Verdächtigen zu sein … Wieder ein schwieriger Fall für den Commissario – zumal auch privat alles recht kompliziert ist: Er ist hin- und hergerissen zwischen der schüchternen Enrica, die immer noch darauf hofft, Ricciardis Herz endlich für sich zu gewinnen, und der mondänen Schönheit Livia, die das Feld auch nicht freiwillig räumen wird …
