The Man Who Got Carter : Michael Klinger, Independent Production and the British Film Industry, 1960-1980
ISBN: 9781780762821 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Michael Klinger was the most successful independent producer in the British film industry over a twenty year period, from 1960 to 1980, responsible for 32 films, including classics such as Repulsion and Get Carter.

Historical Dictionary of Film Noir
ISBN: 9780810859609 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 532 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Film noir--literally "black cinema"--is the label customarily given to a group of black and white American films, mostly crime thrillers, made between 1940 and 1959. Today there is considerable dispute about what are the shared features that classify a noir film, and therefore which films should be included in this category. These problems are partly caused because film noir is a retrospective label that was not used in the 1940s or 1950s by the film industry as a production category and therefore its existence and features cannot be established through reference to trade documents. The...

Calvinist Churches in Early Modern Europe
ISBN: 9780719054884 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For ordinary people, the impact of the Reformation would have centred around local parish churches, rather than the theological debates of the Reformers. Focusing on the Calvinists, this volume explores how the architecture, appearance and arrangement of places of worship were transformed by new theology and religious practice. Based on original research and site visits, this book charts the impact of the Reformed faith across Europe, concentrating in particular on France, the Netherlands and Scotland. While in some areas a Calvinist Reformation led to the adaptation of existing buildings,...

Public Opinion and Changing Identities in the Early Modern Netherlands: Essays in Honour of Alastair Duke
ISBN: 9789004155275 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 305 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Was there such a thing as 'public opinion' before the age of newspapers and party politics? The essays in this collection show that in the Low Countries, at least, there certainly was. In this highly urbanised society, with high literacy rates and good connections, news and public debate could spread fast in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, enabling the growth of powerful opposition movements against the Crown, the creation of the Dutch Republic, and of the distinctive Netherlandish culture of the Golden Age. Contributors include: Hugh Dunthorne, Raingard Esser, Jonathan Israel,...

Parish Churches in the Early Modern World
ISBN: 9781472446084 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Across Europe, the parish church has stood for centuries at the centre of local communities; it was the focal point of its religious life, the rituals performed there marked the stages of life from the cradle to the grave. Nonetheless the church itself artistically and architecturally stood apart from the parish community. It was often the largest and only stone-built building in a village; it was legally distinct being subject to canon law, as well as consecrated for the celebration of religious rites. The buildings associated with the "cure of souls" were sacred sites or holy places, where...

Translating Christianity
ISBN: 9781108419246 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 494 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume brings together scholars to explore the challenges of translating Christianity. Christianity has been the impulse behind the creation of more dictionaries and grammars of the world's languages than any other force in history. More people pray and worship in more languages in Christianity than in any other religion. It is a religion without a revealed language; a faith characterized by 'the triumph of its translatability'. Christianity is also a translated religion in a very different sense. Many of its ritual practices have been predicated on the translation of material objects,...

Lutheran Churches in Early Modern Europe
ISBN: 9780754665830 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 536 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Until recently the impact of the Lutheran Reformation has been largely regarded in political and socio-economic terms, yet for most people it was not the abstract theological debates that had the greatest impact upon their lives, but what they saw in their parish churches every Sunday. This collection of essays provides a coherent and interdisciplinary investigation of the impact that the Lutheran Reformation had on the appearance, architecture and arrangement of early modern churches. Drawing upon recent research being undertaken by leading art historians and historians on Lutheran places of...
