Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 472 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | At times of crisis and revolution such as ours, diagnoses of crucial junctures and ruptures ¿ ¿turning points¿ ¿ in the continuous flow of history are more prevalent than ever.

Offering complex reflections on the notion of turning points, literary and filmic narratives are thus of particular interest to the present volume.…
