|  | Narrative Pulse ofBeowulf: Arrivals and Departures (Toronto Old English Studies)
Publication Date: February 23, 2008| ISBN-10: 0802093299 | ISBN-13: 978-0802093295| Edition: 1 One of the most consistent critiques levelled against Beowulf is that it lacks a steady narrative advance and that its numerous digressions tend to complicate if not halt the poem's movement. As those passages often look backward or far ahead in narrative time, they seem to transform the poem into a meditative pastiche.

In his biography of Donne, John Stubbs chronicles not only a long and bitter sectarian conflict, but also...
|  | Hans Bellmer: The Anatomy of Anxiety
Publication Date: December 11, 2000The German-born Surrealist Hans Bellmer (1902-1975), best known for his life-size pubescent dolls, devoted an artistic lifetime to creating sexualized images of the female body—distorted, dismembered, or menaced in sinister scenarios. In this book Sue Taylor draws on psychoanalytic theory to suggest why Bellmer was so driven by erotomania as well as a desire for revenge, suffering, and the safety of the womb.
