The Fall of Natural Man: The American Indian and the Origins of Comparative Ethnology
ISBN: 9780521337045 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book gives a new interpretation of the reception of the new world by the old. It is the first in-depth study of the pre-Enlightenment methods by which Europeans attempted to describe and classify the American Indian and his society. Between 1512 and 1724 a simple determinist view of human society was replaced by a more sophisticated relativist approach. Anthony Pagden uses new methods of technical analysis, already developed in philosophy and anthropology, to examine four groups of writers who analysed Indian culture: the sixteenth-century theologian, Francisco de Vitoria, and his...

The Burdens of Empire: 1539 to the Present
ISBN: 9780521188289 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Despite the long history of debate and the recent resurgence of interest in empires and imperialism, no one seems very clear as to what exactly an empire is. The Burdens of Empire strives to offer not only a definition but also a working description. This book examines how empires were conceived by those who ruled them and lived under them; it looks at the relations, real or imagined, between the imperial metropolis (when one existed) and its outlying provinces or colonies; and it asks how the laws that governed the various parts and various ethnic groups, of which all empires were made, were...

The Idea of Europe: From Antiquity to the European Union
ISBN: 9780521791717 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book addresses the question of what it means, and has meant, to be "European," covering the period from Antiquity to the end of the twentieth century. The essays discuss questions of politics, law, religion, culture, literature, and even affectivity in a broad account of how a distinctive European identity has grown over the centuries and its place in the future evolution of the European Union. In the massive literature of European integration, no other book takes such a long historical perspective, and none other deals directly with the question of identity.

Facing Each Other (2 Volumes): The World's Perception of Europe and Europe's Perception of the World
ISBN: 9780860785262 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 742 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The perception of Europeans of the world and of the peoples beyond Europe has become in recent years the subject of intense scholarly interest and heated debate both in and outside the academy. So, too, has the concern with how it was that those peoples who were variously a discovereda, and then, as often as not, colonised, understood the strangers in their midst. This volume attempts to cover both these topics, as well as to provide a number of crucial articles on the difficulties faced by modern historians in understanding the complex, relationship between a thema and a usa . Inevitably...

European Encounters with the New World: From Renaissance to Romanticism (Revised)
ISBN: 9780300059502 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. For more than three centuries after Columbus's voyages to America, Europeans pondered how the Old World's encounters with the New World affected European sensibilities and intellectual horizons. In this book Anthony Pagden examines some of the varied ways in which Europeans interpreted these encounters with America. Pagden explores the strategies used by Columbus and the early chroniclers of America to describe a continent and its inhabitants so deeply unfamiliar to Europeans that they seemed hardly to be real. He looks at how, in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, Europeans...

ISBN: 9780300090949 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 640 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Hernan Cortes's Cartas de Relacion, written over a seven-year period to Charles V of Spain, provide an extraordinary narrative account of the conquest of Mexico from the founding of the coastal town of Veracruz until Cortes's journey to Honduras in 1525. Pagden's English translation has been prepared from a close examination of the earliest surviving manuscript and of the first printed editions, and he also provides a new introduction offering a bold and innovative interpretation of the nature of the conquest and Cortes's involvement in it.
