There have been many books over the past decade, including outstanding collections of essays, on the topic of the ethical virtues and virtue-theoretic approaches in ethics.

Indians' New South: Cultural Change in the Colonial Southeast
ISBN: 9780807121726 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this concise but sweeping study, James Axtell depicts the complete range of transformations in southeastern Indian cultures as a result of contact, and often conflict, with European explorers and settlers in the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. Stressing the dynamism and constant change in native cultures while showing no loss of Indian identity, Axtell effectively argues that the colonial Southeast cannot be fully understood without paying particular attention to its native inhabitants before their large-scale removal in the 1830s. Axtell begins by treating the... In this concise but sweeping study, James Axtell depicts the complete range of transformations in southeastern Indian cultures as a result of conta... |

The School Upon a Hill: Education and Society in Colonial New England
ISBN: 9780393008241 / Angielski / Miękka / 1976 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The School Upon a Hill is the first attempt to portray a view of education that, in the author's words, "enables us to see the educational process if not actually through children's eyes at least from their position in a Lilliputian universe." Its subject is socialization: the ways in which children in colonial New England were educated for life in society--whether it was the family, the church, or the larger community--and what they were taught that transformed them from cultureless newborns into functioning, obedient, and cooperative members of a distinctive society and culture.

The Invasion Within: The Contest of Cultures in Colonial North America
ISBN: 9780195041545 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Colonial North America was not only a battleground for furs and land, but also for allegiances and even souls. In the three-sided struggle for empire, the English and French colonists were locked in heated competition for native allies and religious converts. Axtell sharply contrasts the English efforts to civilize the Indians with the French willingness to accept native lifestyles, and reveals why the struggle for control over the continent became a fascinating contest of cultures between shrewd opponents lasting nearly 150 years.
