The Dialogic Imagination by M. M. Bakhtin
edited by Michael Holquist | translated by Caryl Emerson | Michael Holquist
Literature University of Texas Press 9780292715349 Available
View details
Other title information: Four essays
Annotation: These essays reveal Mikhail Bakhtin (1895-1975)—known in the West largely through his studies of Rabelais and Dostoevsky—as a philosopher of language, a cultural historian, and a major theoretician of the novel. The Dialogic Imagination presents, in superb English translation, four selections from Voprosy literatury i estetiki (Problems of literature and esthetics), published in Moscow in 1975. The volume also contains a lengthy introduction to Bakhtin and his thought and a glossary of terminology. Bakhtin uses the category "novel" in a highly idiosyncratic way, claiming for it vastly larger territory than has been traditionally accepted. For him, the novel is not so much a genre as it is a force, "novelness," which he discusses in "From the Prehistory of Novelistic Discourse." Two essays, "Epic and Novel" and "Forms of Time and of the Chronotope in the Novel," deal with literary history in Bakhtin's own unorthodox way. In the final essay, he discusses literature and language in general, which he sees as stratified, constantly changing systems of subgenres, dialects, and fragmented "languages" in battle with one another.

Introduction to the reading of Hegel
Alexandre Kojeve
Philosophy Cornell University Press 9780801492037 Available
View details
Other title information: Lectures on the "phenomenology of spirit"
Annotation: During the years 1933-1939, the Marxist political philosopher Alexandre Kojeve brilliantly explicated – through a series of lectures – the philosophy of Hegel as it was developed in the "Phenomenology of Spirit". Based on the major work by Kojeve, this collection of lectures was chosen by Bloom to show the intensity of Kojeve's study and thought and the depth of his insight into Hegel's "Phenomenology of Spirit". More important, for Kojeve was above all a philosopher and not an ideologue, this profound and venturesome work of Hegel will expose the readers to the excitement of discovering a great mind in all its force and power. Alexandre Kojeve was born in Russia and educated in Berlin. After World War II he worked in the French Ministry of Economic Affairs as one of the chief planners for the Common Market while also continuing his philosophical pursuits.

Soviet structural folkloristics

Notes: Vol. 1
Annotation: This book is one of the results of the team work done in the Centre for the Computerised and Semantic Analysis of Myth at the University of British Columbia. Our activity is threefold: (1) investigation, development, and test of theoretical and analytic models (2) elaboration of computer programs for the semantic analysis of myth; and (3) actual analyses of Northwest Pacific Indian and of Melanesian myths. Our search for operational models and testable hypotheses led us to the recent publications of some prominent Soviet colleagues. We found these contributions valuable enough to deserve translation. A subgroup – T. Popoff, S. Reid, G. Quijano, M. Layton, W. Jilek Aall and M. Calcowski – studied articles published in German, French, or Russian, translated them and tested the approaches. We are happy to make the results available to our fellow anthropologists, folklorists and semioticians in the hope that better and ever more rigorous approaches will continue to heighten the quality of the procedures in our related fields. - from the introduction
