Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Socrates, one of the first of the great philosophers, left no written works. What survives of his thought are second-hand descriptions of his teachings and conversationsincluding, most famously, the accounts of his trial and execution composed by his friend, student, and philosophical succes…sor, Plato. In Euthyphro, Socrates examines the concept of piety and displays his propensity for questioning Athenian authorities. Such audacity is not without consequence, and in the Apology we find Socrates defending himself in court against charges of impiety and corruption of the youth. Crito depicts Socrates choosing to accept the resulting death sentence rather than escape Athens and avoid execution. All three dialogues are included here, as is the final scene of Phaedo, in which the sentence is carried out. Platos account of the last days of Socrates, presented in a lively new translation.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Did it matter then, she asked herself, walking towards Bond Street, did it matter that she must inevitably cease completely? All this must go on without her; did she resent it; or did it not somehow become consoling to believe that death ended absolutely? But that somehow in the streets of L…ondon, on the ebb and flow of things, here, there, she survived.Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) is now generally recognised as the author of two of the twentieth centurys greatest literary works, To the Lighthouse and Mrs. Dalloway, both of which employ a style of narration that has come to be known as stream of consciousness, which focuses on the interiorand not always logicalmovement of thoughts that make up the better part of most peoples psyches.Woolfs 1925 novel, Mrs. Dalloway, is about the casualties of early twentieth-century life, and she explores the gendered forms of mental illness, and the social repercussions of feminism, homosexuality, and colonialism. The central consciousness is that of the title character, Clarissa Dalloway, on the day of a dinner party that she is giving. Moving through the relatively uneventful preparations, the arrival of the guests, and the rituals of hosting a party, Clarissas thoughts wander across past, present, and into the future. Throughout the relatively mundane actions through which the book follows her, she is slowly revealed by means of her interior monologues of memory and reflection to be a most interesting person who has been squeezed by society into a rather ordinary role. The narrative broadens to include others in her life, most notably Septimus Warren Smith, a shell-shock victim whose life has had no direct connection to Clarissas, but who in many ways can be read as a male parallel.This Broadview edition provides a reliable text at a very reasonable price.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. That James Joyces The Dead forms an extraordinary conclusion to his collectionDubliners, there can be no doubt. But as many have pointed out, The Dead may equally well be read as a novellaarguably, one of the finest novellas ever written.The Dead, a story of public life, as Joyce categorized… it, was written more than a year after Joyce had finished the other stories in the collection, and was meant to redress what he felt was their unnecessary harsh[ness]. Set on the feast of the epiphany, it is a haunting tale of connection and of alienation, reflecting, in the words of Stanislaus Joyce (Jamess brother and confidant), the nostalgic love of a rejected exile.The present volume highlights The Dead for readers who wish to focus on that great work in a concise volumeand for university courses in which it is not possible to cover all of Dubliners. But it also gives a strong sense of how that story is part of a larger whole. Stories from each of the other sections of Dubliners have been included, and a wide range of background materials is included as well, providing a vivid sense of the literary and historical context out of which the work emerged. The Dead and three other stories from James Joyces Dubliners is presented in a stand-alone volume with introductory and contextual materials closely based on those found in volume 6 of The Broadview Anthology of British Literature. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The Great Gatsby is widely regarded as one of the masterpieces of American fiction. It tells of the mysterious Jay Gatsbys grand effort to win the love of Daisy Buchanan, the rich girl who embodies for him the promise of the American dream. Deeply romantic in its concern with self making, id…eal love, and the power of illusion, it draws on modernist techniques to capture the spirit of the materialistic, morally adrift, post-war era that Fitzgerald dubbed the jazz age. Gatsbys aspirations remain inseparable from the rhythms and possibilities suggested by modern consumer culture, popular song, and the movies, while his obstacles remain inseparable from contemporary American anxieties about social mobility, racial mongrelization, and the fate of Western civilization.This Broadview edition sets the novel in context by providing readers with a critical introduction and crucial background material about the consumer culture in which Fitzgerald was immersed, the novels composition and reception, and the jazz age. The second edition has been updated throughout, with expanded writings on race and immigration in 1920s America from Anzia Yezierska, Alain Locke, and others. An updated version of Michael Nowlins acclaimed edition of The Great Gatsby. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
