The Iliad & The Odyssey (Including 'Homer and His Age') encapsulates fundamental literary works pivotal to the Western canon, orchestrated impeccably to juxtapose ancient heroic narratives with scholarly critique. This anthology blends the poetic majesty and complex storytelling of Homeric epics with Andrew Lang's insightful analysis, creating a textured tapestry of myth, heroism, and historical inquiry. The intermingling of the epics with a critical examination marks a confluence where literary grandeur meets erudite scholarship, guiding the reader through a labyrinth of ancient ideologies and narrative techniques molded by millennia of oral tradition and subsequent textual preservation. In delving into the backgrounds of Homer, whose epics lie at the very heart of Greek literature, and Andrew Lang, a versatile turn-of-the-century polymath, the collection presents a cultural and intellectual bridge spanning Greek antiquity to Victorian Britain. The contributors, each anchored in dramatically different eras, provide a diachronic view that enriches understanding—Lang's perspective recontextualizes the Homeric texts through a modern lens of philology and folklore, emphasizing the fluidity and perpetuity of classical narratives within the literary tradition. This anthology is indispensable for those wishing to immerse themselves in the foundational texts of Western literature alongside scholarly commentary that both illuminates and questions these ancient stories. Readers are offered a unique juxtaposition of primary epic texts with analytical narratives, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of not only the tales themselves but also their broader implications and enduring legacy. Engage with this volume to navigate the complex interplay between storied history and its continual reinterpretation.

A través de los diecisiete perfiles que componen este libro se percibe la presencia espectral de uno de los mitos fundacionales de la literatura chilena: la maulinidad. Este compendio de vidas y obras, que van desde autores reconocidísimos a figuras destinadas al fondo de un baúl rural, nos permite enfrentarnos a una buena parte del canon de la literatura hecha desde el Maule. "Contra el olvido», como bien lo dice su título, es una buena posibilidad de releer, pero por sobre todo de descubrir figuras borroneadas por la historia.

La publicación en 1969 de Abecedario de pólvora supuso una auténtica convulsión en el panorama literario y la crítica búlgaros. Por primera vez se abordaban cuestiones como la revolución o la resistencia antifascista huyendo de la simplificación y del ensalzamiento ideológico impuestos por el realismo socialista. Las historias que lo componen, de una sencillez tan profunda como bella, están impregnadas de una sabiduría popular que entronca con la rica tradición y folklore búlgaros. Esta obra es una puerta a un pequeño mundo rural, tan real como rico en elementos fantásticos (lo que le valió el calificativo de realismo mágico balcánico), poblado por héroes anónimos que, conduciendo su carro lleno de jarros y vasijas, amasando el pan cada mañana o tallando la piedra de las canteras, nos muestran la grandeza y la miseria de la vida campesina, reivindicando su papel en la épica de lo cotidiano. «Radíchkov excava la sabiduría en el fondo del candor cotidiano, la inteligencia oculta bajo las apariencias de la simpleza, la locura poética disfrazada de sencillísimo sentido común y áspera tozudez, don Quijote disfrazado de Sancho Panza». Claudio Magris «Las historias narradas en Abecedario de pólvora no parecen de este mundo, y sin embargo son tan rurales y pegadas a la tierra que no hay nada más "real". Pero además, uno verifica que el autor supera el canon del realismo socialista, apropiándose de algunos de sus elementos para parodiarlo y subvertirlo. El resultado es una obra de las grandes, de primer nivel». Ronaldo Menéndez «Abecedario de pólvora es un libro magnífico, de otro tiempo. Cualquier historia desprende un cariño por aquellos tiernos bárbaros, instalándose en una tradición centroeuropea entre lo triste y lo bello, entre el humor y la historia arrojada como piedras. Juan Jiménez García, Detour «Radíchkov describe este mundo con un gran humanismo, elevando así el localismo más terruñero a la categoría de símbolo universal». Adolfo Torrecilla, ACE Prensa

This book proposes a renewed myth-critical approach to the so-called 'wasteland modernism' of the 1920s to reassess certain key texts of the American modernist canon from a critical prism that offers new perspectives of analysis and interpretation. Myth-criticism and, more specifically, the critical survey of myth as an aesthetic and ideological strategy fundamental for the comprehension of modernist literature, leads to an engaging discussion about the disenchantment of myth in modernist literary texts. This process of mythical disenchantment, inextricable from the cultural and historical circumstances that define the modernist zeitgeist, offers a possibility for revising from a contemporary standpoint a set of classic texts that are crucial to our understanding of the modern literary tradition in the United States. This study carries out an exhaustive and updated myth-critical examination of works by T.S. Eliot, John Dos Passos, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, John Steinbeck and Djuna Barnes to broaden the scope of familiar themes and archetypes, enclosing the textual analysis of these works in a wider exploration about the purpose and functioning of myth in literature, particularly in times of crisis and transformation.

Beginning with Walter Bauer in 1934, the denial of clear orthodoxy in early Christianity has shaped and largely defined modern New Testament criticism, recently given new life through the work of spokesmen like Bart Ehrman. Spreading from academia into mainstream media, the suggestion that diversity of doctrine in the early church led to many competing orthodoxies is indicative of today's postmodern relativism. Authors Köstenberger and Kruger engage Ehrman and others in this polemic against a dogged adherence to popular ideals of diversity. Köstenberger and Kruger's accessible and careful scholarship not only counters the "Bauer Thesis" using its own terms, but also engages overlooked evidence from the New Testament. Their conclusions are drawn from analysis of the evidence of unity in the New Testament, the formation and closing of the canon, and the methodology and integrity of the recording and distribution of religious texts within the early church.
