The Message of Proverbs: Wisdom for Life
ISBN: 9781514006290 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 173 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The book of Proverbs is the most practical book in the Bible. Its instruction in the art of living has been long tried and long proven. Its proverbial seeds of discernment are ready to be planted and rooted in the receptive soil of wisdom's hearers today. As much as we glean from the surface of Proverbs, there remains still more in its depths. David Atkinson's commentary wonderfully illumines the ancient cultural and religious background of the discourses and sayings of Proverbs. More important, Atkinson brings the wisdom of Proverbs into conversation with the wisdom of God now more fully...

The Anglo-Scottish Ballad and Its Imaginary Contexts
ISBN: 9781783740284 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is the first book to combine contemporary debates in ballad studies with the insights of modern textual scholarship. Just like canonical literature and music, the ballad should not be seen as a uniquely authentic item inextricably tied to a documented source, but rather as an unstable structure subject to the vagaries of production, reception, and editing. Among the matters addressed are topics central to the subject, including ballad origins, oral and printed transmission, sound and writing, agency and editing, and textual and melodic indeterminacy and instability. While drawing on the...

Fading Foundations: Probability and the Regress Problem
ISBN: 9783319582948 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license.This book addresses the age-old problem of infinite regresses in epistemology. How can we ever come to know something if knowing requires having good reasons, and reasons can only be good if they are backed by good reasons in turn? The problem has puzzled philosophers ever since antiquity, giving rise to what is often called Agrippa's Trilemma. The current volume approaches the old problem in a provocative and thoroughly contemporary way. Taking seriously the idea that good reasons are typically probabilistic in character, it develops and...

The English Traditional Ballad: Theory, Method, and Practice
ISBN: 9780754606345 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Ballads are an intriguing subject for study, not least because of their endless variety. Ballads taken down or recorded from singers separated by centuries in time and by hundreds of kilometres in distance, are both different and yet recognizably the same. In this book, David Atkinson examines the ways in which the body of ballads known in England make reference both to ballads from elsewhere and to other English folk songs.

Street Ballads in Nineteenth-Century Britain, Ireland, and North America: The Interface between Print and Oral Traditions
ISBN: 9781472427410 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In recent years, the assumption that traditional songs originated from a primarily oral tradition has been challenged by research into street literature - that is, the cheap printed broadsides and chapbooks that poured from the presses of jobbing printers from the late sixteenth century until the beginning of the twentieth. Not only are some traditional singers known to have learned songs from printed sources, but most of the songs were composed by professional writers and reached the populace in printed form. Street Ballads in Nineteenth-Century Britain, Ireland, and North America engages...

The Burden of White Supremacy: Containing Asian Migration in the British Empire and the United States
ISBN: 9781469630274 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. From 1896 to 1924, motivated by fears of an irresistible wave of Asian migration and the possibility that whites might be ousted from their position of global domination, British colonists and white Americans instituted stringent legislative controls on Chinese, Japanese, and South Asian immigration. Historians of these efforts typically stress similarity and collaboration between these movements, but in this compelling study, David C. Atkinson highlights the differences in these campaigns and argues that the main factor unifying these otherwise distinctive drives was the constant tensions...
