Poetry of Opposition and Revolution Dryden to Wordsworth

Poetry of Opposition and Revolution is an important new study of the relation between poetry and politics in English literature from Dryden to Wordsworth. Building on his argument in Poetry and the Realm of Politics: Shakespeare to Dryden, Howard Erskine-Hill reveals that the major tradition of political allusion is not, as has often been argued, that of the political allegory and overtly political poems, but rather a more shifting and less systematic practice, often involving equivocal or multiple reference. Drawing on the revisionist trend in recent historiography, the book offers new and thought-provoking readings of familiar texts. Dryden's Aeneid version and Pope's Rape of the Lock are shown to belong not just to contemporary convention, but to a more widespread and older style of envisioning high politics and the crises of government. The early books of The Prelude can be seen to show marked political features; reflections of the 1688 Revolution are traced in The Rape of the Lock; and a Jacobite emotion is identified in The Vanity of Human Wishes. Taking issue with recent New Historicist Romantic criticism, the concluding chapters argue that what have seemed to many to be traces of covert political displacement or erasure in Wordsworth are in fact marks of a continuing political preoccupation, which found new forms after the collapse of an Enlightenment programme into the Jacobin terror. - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461410223 - Poetry of Opposition and Revolution Dryden to Wordsworth

The Structure and Dynamics of Geographic Ranges

No species occurs everywhere. Indeed, the majority are absent from most places, and where they do occur they are usually quite rare. Gaston discusses the structure of these distributions and is particularly concerned with the factors that determine the limits to a species' geographic range, how the sizes of those ranges vary, and patterns in that variation. - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461410492 - The Structure and Dynamics of Geographic Ranges

Manufacturing Engineering & Technology

'Manufacturing, Engineering and Technology 5/e 'is intended for students of manufacturing in manufacturing, mechanical, or industrial engineering programs at both the Associate Degree or Bachelor Degree level. The book emphasizes a mostly qualitative description of the science, mathematics and the technology and practice of manufacturing, including detailed descriptions of manufacturing processes and the manufacturing enterprise. The book has been completely updated, and addresses issues essential to modern manufacturing, ranging from traditional topics such as casting, forming, machining, and joining processes, to advanced topics such as the fabrication of microelectronic devices and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). With a large number of case studies and examples, up to date and comprehensive coverage of all topics, and superior graphics, the book provides a good background for manufacturing students as well as professionals. - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461512418 - Manufacturing Engineering & Technology

Side-By-Side French and English Grammar

A comparative and simple approach to learning the grammar of a new language The Side-by-Side Grammar books present explanations of the essential elements of Spanish or French grammar alongside their English-language equivalents. This method allows students to build on what they already know; not only do readers learn grammar for a new language but also enjoy the added benefit of strengthening their grammar skills in their native tongue ! Each lesson clearly explains functions and uses of the different parts of speech and includes abundant examples for every entry. Because the vocabulary is limited to frequently used words, students can concentrate more on a sentence's structure instead of becoming tangled in its meaning. A 'Quick Check' section summarizes main ideas in every section and helps readers retain the most important information. New to these editions are exercise sections to further reinforce students' comprehension. - Books Reading - New - 461119777 - Side-By-Side French and English Grammar - description
