Winders picks up the gauntlet thrown down by right-wing educators demanding a return to teaching the Great Works of literature, and shows how recent feminist and deconstructionist critical theories can deal with texts that are fundamentally patriarchal and elitist. He also points out where the new weapons need honing before they can bite into such tough, venerable material. A paper edition (unseen) is reported available for $12.95.

Paris Africain

Rhythms of the African Diaspora

By: James A. Winders

The growth of African immigration to France at the end of the twentieth century wrought cultural change in this epicenter of the avant-garde in European art and music. If one visits the record stores, clubs, and restaurants of contemporary Paris, one would find the influence of France's former colonies at work. James Winders presents the story of African immigrants to France as a unique chapter in the long history of the reception accorded expatriate artists in Paris. Paris Africain demonstrates that France's newest immigrants are making marks in French culture that will not be erased.

European Culture Since 1848

From Modern to Postmodern and Beyond

By: James A. Winders

Emerging from the convergence of intellectual history and cultural studies, European Culture Since 1848 is the first book that meets the challenge of the new cultural history by offering a thematic survey of modern European culture that synthesizes new directions and interpretive debates. James Winders explores the themes in clear and accessible language and fills a longstanding need for a wide-ranging, thematic study of modern European cultural history, including popular culture, with long-overdue emphasis on the second half of the 20th century.
