Het waterboek laat je kennismaken met de meest fascinerende en mysterieuze vloeistof van ons universum.

For the third edition,...
Origins of Modern Japanese Literature
1993 || Paperback || Kojin Karatani || Duke University Press
"I have hopes that Karatani's book--one of those infrequent moments in which a rare philosophical intelligence rises to the occasion of full national and historical statement--will also have a fundamental impact on literary criticism in the West. . . . For "Origins" has some lessons for us about critical pluralism, in addition to its principal message, which turns on that old and new topic of modernity itself."--Fredric Jameson, from the Preface

How Our Lives Become Stories
Making Selves
1999 || Paperback || Paul John Eakin || Cornell University Press
The popularity of such books as Frank McCourt's Angela's Ashes, Mary Karr's The Liars' Club, and Kathryn Harrison's controversial The Kiss, has led columnists to call ours "the age of memoir." And while some critics have derided the explosion of memoir as exhibitionistic and self-aggrandizing, literary theorists are now beginning to look seriously at this profusion of autobiographical literature. Informed by literary, scientific, and experiential concerns, How Our Lives Become Stories enhance...
