Between Two Waters
WINNER OF THE FORTNUM & MASON FOOD AND DRINK AWARDS SHORTLISTED FOR THE GUILD OF FOOD WRITERS DEBUT BOOK AWARD LONGLISTED FOR THE HIGHLAND BOOK PRIZE HIGHLY COMMENDED BY THE SOPHIE COE PRIZE FOR FOOD WRITING A FINANCIAL TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR 'A true inspiration on every level' ANGELA HARTNETT OBE 'As morally urgent as it is beautifully written' JONATHAN SAFRAN FOER 'Vital and marvellous' JEREMY LEE When world-class chef Pam first opened Inver, her restaurant on the shores of Loch Fyne, she set out to discover what makes ‘modern Scottish food’ – or if it even existed. Between Two Waters traces Pam’s journey to answer that question. From the soil to the kitchen, she interrogates the unconscious influences on what we eat and captures with real heart all that the dinner table has to offer us: sustenance, both physical and imaginative, challenges and adventure and, most importantly, communion with others. This is a blisteringly original work from one of the world’s most innovative thinkers about food, sustainability and landscape.
Reading Thomas Hardy: Selected Poems 2nd Edition

Thomas Hardy is unique in English literature as a major novelist who is also a major poet. His collected poetry includes such pinnacles of the lyric tradition as ‘The Darkling Thrush’ and the series of haunted love-elegies written in memory of his first wife Emma, as well as such classics of the late Victorian and early twentieth-century canon as ‘Drummer Hodge’ and ‘The Convergence of the Twain’. Among the most distinctive bodies of verse in the language, it is also among the most controversial. Ever since it first appeared in Wessex Poems in 1898, readers and critics have stumbled over its awkwardnesses or been seduced by its idiosyncratic music, have celebrated its unprecedented formal inventiveness or deplored its perceived lack of ambition. It has been variously read as an archetype of the Victorian intellectual odyssey, as the work of a proto-modernist, and as the fountainhead of contemporary British verse. At once traditional and modern, the acme of artifice and a conduit of intense emotion, it remains a critical enigma. This revised edition of Neil Wenborn’s exemplary study guide sets Hardy’s poetry in the context of his life, times and literary heritage, and explores, through a close reading of selected poems, the challenge it offers to criticism and the elusive power it continues to exert over each new generation of readers. Significantly expanded to provide detailed introductions to Hardy’s eight collections, including Time’s Laughingstocks, Moments of Vision and Satires of Circumstance, it references some 330 poems and features a number of new close readings chosen to illuminate key characteristics of his oeuvre as a whole, together with an updated overview of critical works and approaches and an expanded glossary and bibliography.
Literary Translation, Reception, and Transfer

The three concepts mentioned in the title of this volume imply the contact between two or more literary phenomena; they are based on similarities that are related to a form of ‘travelling’ and imitation or adaptation of entire texts, genres, forms or contents. Transfer comprises all sorts of ‘travelling’, with translation as a major instrument of transferring literature across linguistic and cultural barriers. Transfer aims at the process of communication, starting with the source product and its cultural context and then highlighting the mediation by certain agents and institutions to end up with inclusion in the target culture. Reception lays its focus on the receiving culture, especially on critcism, reading, and interpretation. Translation, therefore, forms a major factor in reception with the general aim of reception studies being to reveal the wide spectrum of interpretations each text offers. Moreover, translations are the prime instrument in the distribution of literature across linguistic and cultural borders; thus, they pave the way for gaining prestige in the world of literature. The thirty-eight papers included in this volume and dedicated to research in this area were previously read at the ICLA conference 2016 in Vienna. They are ample proof that the field remains at the center of interest in Comparative Literature.
