The Lyre of Orpheus
ISBN: 9780199751396 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

He shows how popular music's power to move, to agitate, to control listeners, to shape...

Drop your visiting cards, put aside your beer-lever, stop being a half-pint hero and discover the gloriously funny slang which was part of everyday life in two world wars. Passion-killers: Airwomen's service knickers, whether twilights (the lighter, summer-weight variety) or black-outs (the navy-blue winter-weights). A wise directive has purposely made them as unromantic in colour and in design as a wise directive could imagine. Thanks to the work of Eric Partridge in 1945, the hilarious slang of the Royal Air Force during the first two World Wars has been preserved for generations to come....

The Re-Enchantment of the West, Vol 2: Alternative Spiritualities, Sacralization, Popular Culture and Occulture
ISBN: 9780567041234 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 482 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Re-Enchantment of the West challenges those theories that predict widespread secularization beyond traditional institutional religiosity. Spiritualities are emerging that are not only quite different from the those forms of religion that are in decline, but are often defined over against them and articulated and passed on in ways quite different from those of traditional religion. In particular, it is argued that such contemporary Western spirituality is fed by a constantly replenished reservoir of ideas, practices, and methodologies, which is here termed 'occulture'. Moreover, such... The Re-Enchantment of the West challenges those theories that predict widespread secularization beyond traditional institutional religiosity. Spiri... |
