paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

A collection of poetry by renowned Bosnian poet Sasha Skenderija, 96 Seiten, Foreword by K. E. Bättig von Wittelsbach In one of his final writings, the late Palestinian-American critic Edward Said wrote: 1 occasionally experience myself as a cluster offlowing currents. 1 prefer this to the idea of a solid self, the identity to which so many attach so muck significance. These currents, like the themes of one's life, Flow along during the waking hours, and at their best, they require no reconciling, no harmonizing. They are "off" and may be out of place, but at least they are always in motion, in time, in place, in the form of all kinds of strange combinations moving about, not necessarily forward, sometimes against each other, contrapuntally yet without one central theme. A form of freedom, I'd like to think [.J. With so many dissonantes in my life I have learned actually to prefer being not quite right and out of place.' Like Theodor Adorno before him ("the whole is the untrue"), Said saw the contrapuntal seif, a seif never quite at home, as a conditio sine qua non for any intellectual existente and vitality. Both thinkers were familiar with exile as a physical and a metaphorical condition - the state of geographical and intellectual dislocation, of remaining outside of the mainstream, of never being fully of any place, but "being unsettled and unsettling others."2 For Said, exile was indeed a space of boundless privilege, granting to the exiled a potential for immensely rewarding intellectual productivity, the unique position of a decentered observer, free to experience the pleasures and rewards of the constantly shifting "eccentric angles of vision,"2 beyond the reach of those belonging to the mainstream. Its rewards await in the unexpected, the provisional and the risky, the never-being-at-home, where the exiled can discover freedom precisely through their displacement from the usual and the expected. The condition of being removed, then, the in-betweenness, becomes the privileged site of daring and self-invention, granting the decentered subject a singular capacity for perception, self-reflection and creation. Although he never met the Palestinian-American Edward Said, Bosnian Poet Sasha Skenderija shares Said's experience of exile and loss of home due to the redrawing of ethnic and religious boundaries in the country of his birth. For both of these exiles, literature became true gutes Exemplar, ordentlich, * Verlag: Black Buzzard Press * Bindung: broschiert.…
