The epic struggle between Carthage and Rome, two of the superpowers of the ancient world, is most famous for land battles in Italy, on the Iberian peninsula and in North Africa.

In doing so, she overturns the myths and misunderstandings that have tend to distort our understanding of Roman naval warfare.…

Paperback. Condición: New. 'Bakhtin and his Others' aims to develop an understanding of Mikhail Bakhtin's ideas through a contextual approach, particularly with a focus on Bakhtin studies from the 1990s onward.

The case studies show how Bakhtin's ideas, when seen in light of this approach, can be constructively employed in contemporary literary research.…
