About this product

Product Information

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2003 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Komparatistik, Note: 1, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munchen (Anglistik und Amerikanistik), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Um den Schreibstil von Robert Coover und das Empfinden beim Lesen seiner Werke beschreiben zu koennen, scheinen die Worte von William H. Gass am treffendsten, welcher in seiner Rezension von Coovers Pricksongs & Descants das Leseerlebnis mit einem Kartenspiel vergleicht: Before us we have several stacks of unread cards, [...] and when, in the course of the game, we discover them, turning their faces like pages toward us they are placed in overlapping layers on the table. There, these thin and definite narrative slices play us, though of course we say that we are playing them.[...] Sharply drawn and brightly painted paragraphs are arranged like pasteboards in ascending or descending scales of alternating colors to compose the story, and the impression that we might scoop them all up and reshuffle, altering not the elements but the order or the rules of play, is deliberate. In diesen Worten liegt das Geheimnis von Coovers Erzahlungen, welche sich bis aufs kleinste Detail in Handlung und Struktur als genauestens durchdacht zeigen. Der Autor zeigt in seinen Werken stets grosses Interesse an aussergewoehnlichen experimentellen Methoden, die sich mit der objektiven Schilderung von im Grunde alltaglichen und unzweideutigen Ereignissen beschaftigen, deren Verbindung untereinander zwar Kausalitat vorweist, was jedoch nicht ausschliesst, dass der Leser die Erzahlung im Ganzen letztendlich als vollkommen fantastisch und unwahrscheinlich beurteilen muss. Diese Abhandlung macht den Versuch, die Coovers verbluffende Kurzgeschichte The Babysitter mit der gleichnamigen Verfilmung mit Alicia Silverstone in der Hauptrolle tiefgehend zu vergleichen und dabei vor allem die Struktur der Short Story, welche im Film kaum imitierbar ist, zu ergrunden.

    It wa bit disappointing that the seller wouldn't reply to my questions about why the description said 'used good' and not what was wrong with it and why not mint, & offering to 'accept an offer' but didn't so I ended up paying full price and taking a chance. However, the vinyl was dispatched immediately and arrived before its expected delivery date, and was packaged securely in 2nd hand shipper. The quality of the vinyl cover was nr mint and vinyl mint so did match the appearance and I am happy.

    Have brought from them before and as always, carefully packaged and quick delivery. The book condition is immaculate. However in the description they failed to mention the book is written in Dutch! For the £14.09 was a complete waste of money for me. Haven't contacted the seller about my disappointment as my friend is Dutch and will be the proud owner of it. My advice would be as pictures are vague and description is standard is to contact the seller if in doubt! Otherwise they are efficient.

    The vinyl arrived quickly and was packaged very well, exceeding my expectations. I appreciate the seller's care. While the listing noted that the item was used, a more detailed description of its condition would have been beneficial. I believe the price was fair for an item in very good condition, but the item received was of slightly lower quality than expected. Overall, I am satisfied and would recommend this seller.
