Henry Fielding: A Political Writer
ISBN: 9781554584543 / Angielski / Miękka / 1984 / 366 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. An accurate and comprehensive study of the political aspects of Fielding's art has been sorely needed. As a result of decades of work by literary scholars and a series of great historians, such a study is finally possible. This volume addresses that need, and, in the light of a recent revival of interest in Fielding's work, it arrives most opportunely. The author offers here a wide-ranging focus and a firm grip on the shifting complexities of Fielding's political situations--the loyalties and enmities, factional alignments and fractious rhetoric--that allow a satisfactory understanding of...

The Sources of Democratic Responsiveness in Mexico
ISBN: 9780268023010 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Matthew Cleary investigates the political sources of improved government responsiveness in contemporary Mexico. He draws on existing theoretical frameworks that explain responsiveness (the degree to which government output matches public preferences) as a function of electoral accountability mechanisms, direct participatory pressure, or a combination of the two. Cleary demonstrates that electoral competition is not the cause of improved responsiveness among Mexican municipal governments. Instead, he attributes responsiveness in the 1980s and 1990s to a prior qualitative shift...

ISBN: 9781570625169 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Prajnaparamita (-perfection of wisdom-) sutras are one of the great legacies of Mahayana Buddhism, giving eloquent expression to some of that school's central concerns: the perception of shunyata, the essential emptiness of all phenomena; and the ideal of the bodhisattva, one who postpones his or her own enlightenment in order to work for the salvation of all beings.
The Prajnaparamita literature consists of a number of texts composed in Buddhist India between 100 BCE and 100 CE. Originally written in Sanskrit, but surviving today mostly in their Chinese versions, the...
