{"product_id":"literary-lists-roman-alexander-barton-9783031283710","title":"Literary Lists: A Short History of Form and Function","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book provides a concise introduction to lists in literature from the early modern period to the twenty-first century. Tracing the changing functions of the literary list across time, it offers a broad range of case studies which situate selected enumerations in their respective contexts and demonstrate the versatility and creative potential of the list form. Starting with a review of previous research on the literary list, the book discusses four main constellations of enumeration: series and the great chain of being; itemization and enumerative realism; 'letteracettera' and experimental list-making; 'white noise' and creative exploits of enumeration between formal playfulness and existential exploration. The epilogue offers an analytical toolkit for the study of literary lists based on rhetorical theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roman Alexander Barton, Eva Von Contzen, Anne R?gemeier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3031283716\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783031283710\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/24\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 141\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.74lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.38d","brand":"Roman Alexander Barton","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44227676406015,"sku":"9783031283710","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_34fe59c0-108a-4550-ac7f-ed20e0776309.jpg?v=1692809973","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/literary-lists-roman-alexander-barton-9783031283710","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
