{"product_id":"9781108437103","title":"A Question of Time : American Literature from Colonial Encounter to Contemporary Fiction","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book brings together leading critics in American literature to address the representation of time throughout a wide range of genres, methodologies, and chronological periods. American literature, from its beginnings to the present, provides a particularly rich set of texts to examine in this regard, with its interest in history, modernity and progress. Each essay considers how time embeds itself in a variety of textual representations, including Native American rituals, Shaker dances, novels, poetry, and magazines in order to provide readers with a capacious view of time's constitutive role in American literature. The essays are organized into four sections - Materializing Time, Performing Time, Timing Time, and Theorizing Time. Each section reflects a particular approach to the question of time, but taken as a whole the volume makes visible unexpected temporal patterns that cut across time period and genre.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48727589585131,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":60.42,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781108437103-1.jpg?v=1781655570","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9781108437103","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
