Speaking Pictures: Neuropsychoanalysis and Authorship in Film and Literature
ISBN: 9780253020918 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Alistair Fox presents a theory of literary and cinematic representation through the lens of neurological and cognitive science in order to understand the origins of storytelling and our desire for fictional worlds. Fox contends that fiction is deeply shaped by emotions and the human capacity for metaphorical thought. Literary and moving images bridge emotional response with the cognitive side of the brain. In a radical move to link the neurosciences with psychoanalysis, Fox foregrounds the interpretive experience as a way to reach personal emotional equilibrium by working through...

Constantine versus Christ
ISBN: 9781498295734 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The subject of this book is politics and religion, the relationship between Constantine and Christianity. Something happened in the reign of the Emperor Constantine that transformed both politics and religion in Europe, and anyone who seeks to understand modern Christianity must analyze this transformation and its consequences. The reign of Constantine is remembered as the victory of Christianity over the Roman Empire; the subtitle of the book indicates a more ominous assessment: ""the triumph of ideology."" Through a careful analysis of the sources, Dr. Kee argues that Constantine was not in...

The Body for the Lord: Sex and Identity in 1 Corinthians 5-7
ISBN: 9780567080967 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Alistair May explores the part played by sexual ethics and the rhetoric of sexual morality in the formation of Christian identity by focusing on the longest discussion of sex in the New Testament - 1Corinthians 5-7. Viewing this passage as a unified discourse, he considers how Paul's ethics serve to give his converts a distinct identity. Although tools from the social sciences are used, the major focus of the work is in careful exegesis of the text. As the study progresses through the text of 1Corinthians 5-7, May argues that Paul strives to maintain an absolute distinction between...

Rise and Demise of Black Theology
ISBN: 9780334041641 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Black Theology emerged in the 1960s as a response to black consciousness. Since then it claims to have broadened its perspective to include oppression on the grounds of race, gender and class. In this book Alistair Kee contests this claim, arguing that Black and Womanist Theologies present inadequate analysis of race and gender and no account at all of class or economic oppression. Content with American capitalism, Black Theology has failed to address the source of the impoverishment of black Americans at home. Content with a romantic image of Africa, this African-American movement fails to...

Karol Szymanowski: His Life and Work
ISBN: 9781138269088 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 528 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The music of the Polish composer Karol Szymanowski (1882-1937) has enjoyed a resurgence of interest in recent years. Despite wide recognition in his own lifetime, Szymanowski s works were somewhat overlooked in the decades following his death. Outside Poland, changing fashions militated against acceptance of his achievement, and subsequent generations of Polish composers regarded his music as too reactionary to provide a basis on which to found a national musical identity. In this full-scale study of Karol Szymanowski s life and music, Alistair Wightman explores the composer s position as a...

An Entirely New Country - Arthur Conan Doyle, Undershaw and the Resurrection of Sherlock Holmes
ISBN: 9781908218193 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The late 1890s saw Arthur Conan Doyle return to England after several years abroad. His new house, named Undershaw, represented a fresh start but it was also the beginning of a dramatic decade that saw him fall in love, stand for parliament, fight injustice and be awarded a knighthood. However, for his many admirers, the most important event of that decade was the resurrection of Sherlock Holmes - the character that he felt had cast a shadow over his life.
