A Life of Ernest Starling
ISBN: 9780195177800 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Ernest Starling (1866-1927) was pre-eminent in the golden age of British Physiology. His name is usually associated with his "Law of the Heart," but his discovery of secretin (the first hormone whose mode of action was explained) and his work on capillaries were more important contributions. He coined the word 'hormone' one hundred years ago. His analysis of capillary function demonstrated that equal and opposite forces move across the capillary wall--an outward (hydrostatic) force and an inward (osmotic) force derived from plasma proteins. Starling's contributions include:...

Morals and Villas in Seneca's Letters: Places to Dwell
ISBN: 9780521829441 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. John Henderson focuses on three key Letters visiting three Roman villas, and reveals their meaning as designs for contrasting lives. Seneca brings the philosophical epistle to Latin literature, creating models for moralizing which feature self-criticism, parody, and animated revision of myth. The Stoic moralist wrests writing away from Greek gurus and texts, and recasts it into critical thinking in Latin terms, within a Roman context. The Letters embody critical thinking on metaphor and translation, self-transformation and cultural tradition.

The Medieval World of Isidore of Seville: Truth from Words

In his Etymologiae, St Isidore of Seville put together a systematic survey of the world in the form of a vast thesaurus of Latin vocabulary, which supplies a more or less accepted or fanciful etymology for each term.

The Renaissance Hospital: Healing the Body and Healing the Soul
ISBN: 9780300109955 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this fascinating and richly illustrated book, John Henderson takes us into the Renaissance hospitals of Florence, describing vividly the enormous barn-like wards and exploring the lives of those who received and administered treatment. Drawing on an exceptional range of visual and documentary evidence, Henderson overturns the popular view of the pre-industrial hospital as a hellish destination for the dying poor. On the contrary, hospitals of the era developed specialised, Renaissance medicine; became important centres of artistic patronage; and served a patient population of up to 6,500 a...

Writting Down Rome 'Satire, Comedy, and Other Offences in Latin Poetry '
ISBN: 9780198150770 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Taking particular plays and poems from Roman comic theatre and the genre of Latin satire, this book finds Rome sending up Roman culture - making a mess of drama, jesting at rustic gaucherie, caricaturing the cult of masculine aggression. Writing Down Rome explores the robust poetic of self-denigration. Henderson's essays celebrate the energetic self-mockery that powers much of Roman poetry. They range widely over comedy, lyric, bucolic, and, in particular, the Roman speciality of satire.
