History Of English Literature
by Annamalai UniversityA History of English Literature is an account of the literary works that found their rightful place in the several periods during its history. Of course, along with these works the authors who contributed them come to our mind. However, a little bit of thinking will provoke us to know what it really is and in what way it proposes to explain the various factors involved in 'the making of all these different kinds of literary compositions. While studying the History of English Literature, it is imperative to understand the man and the work created by him. In so doing to ask the question what made him to create such a work is also pertinent. Every great writer brings to bear upon his book the imprint of his personality. His originality and the power of expression make him a real genius in the art. In a historical survey like this the writer's individuality does matter. Several aspects of his creativity and genius show themselves out in the process.
Terms of the Political: Community, Immunity, Biopolitics
by Roberto Esposito Rhiannon Noel WelchTerms of the Political: Community, Immunity, Biopolitics presents a decade of thought about the origins and possibilities of political theory from one of contemporary Italy's most prolific and engaging political theorists, Roberto Esposito. He has coined a number of critical concepts in current debates about the past, present, and future of biopolitics--from his work on the implications of the etymological and philosophical kinship of community (communitas) and immunity (immunitas) to his theorizations of the impolitical and the impersonal. Taking on interlocutors from throughout the Western philosophical tradition, from Aristotle and Augustine to Weil, Arendt, Nancy, Foucault, and Agamben, Esposito announces the eclipse of a modern political lexicon--"freedom," "democracy," "sovereignty," and "law"--that, in its attempt to protect human life, has so often produced its opposite (violence, melancholy, and death). Terms of the Political calls for the opening of political thought toward a resignification of these and other operative terms--such as "community," "immunity," "biopolitics," and "the impersonal"--in ways that affirm rather than negate life. An invaluable introduction to the breadth and rigor of Esposito's thought, the book will also welcome readers already familiar with Esposito's characteristic skill in overturning and breaking open the language of politics.
