Das alljährliche Treffen zweier Freunde am Meer: Aus der Stadt rausgeschmissen, sind sie nun auf der Suche.

Seven Viking Romances
ISBN: 9780140444742 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Combining traditional myth, oral history and re-worked European legend to depict an ancient realm of heroism and wonder, the seven tales collected here are among the most fantastical of all the Norse romances. Powerfully inspired works of Icelandic imagination, they relate intriguing, often comical tales of famous kings, difficult gods and women of great beauty, goodness or cunning. The tales plunder a wide range of earlier literature from Homer to the French romances--as in the tale of the wandering hero Arrow-Odd, which combines several older legends, or Egil and Asmund, where the story of...

Hrafnkel's Saga and Other Icelandic Stories
ISBN: 9780140442380 / Angielski / Miękka / 1971 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Written around the thirteenth century AD by Icelandic monks, the seven tales collected here offer a combination of pagan elements tightly woven into the pattern of Christian ethics. They take as their subjects figures who are heroic, but do not fit into the mould of traditional heroes. Some stories concern characters in Iceland - among them Hrafknel's Saga, in which a poor man's son is murdered by his powerful neighbour, and Thorstein the Staff-Struck, which describes an ageing warrior's struggle to settle into a peaceful rural community. Others focus on the adventures of...

Beyond Boundaries: Understanding, Translation and Anthropological Discourse
ISBN: 9781859730218 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Anthropology, it is often argued, is an art of translation. Recently, however, social theorists have raised serious doubts about the translator's enterprise. Over the last few years the human social and ecological habitat has seen spectacular developments. Modern humans inhabit a 'global village' in a very genuine sense. What lessons may be learned from these developments for anthropology? In Beyond Boundaries, ten anthropologists from different countries address the problem of social understanding and cultural translation from different theoretical as well as ethnographic...

Public Spaces and Urbanity: Construction and Design Manual: How to Design Humane Cities
ISBN: 9783869226132 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book is about renewing the city with room for people, about historical overlay and respect for the building traditions of the past, and about new architecture on a human scale. The book takes its departure in the European tradition of the dense classic city. Focus is on physical and spatial relationships, development patterns, access principles and their connection to public streets and squares: the elements that make for a rich urban life. Rooted in European traditions, this book is envisioned as a professional "instruction manual" that offers examples of a more humane direction for...

Anthropology and the New Genetics
ISBN: 9780521671743 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The growth of 'new genetics' has dramatically increased our understanding of health, diseases and the body. Anthropologists argue that these scientific advances have had far-reaching social and cultural implications, radically changing our self-understanding and perception of what it means to be human; that we have become 'biomedicalized', fragmented and commodified - redefining our notions of citizenship, social relations, family and identity. This book shows how anthropology can contribute to and challenge the ways we have come to understand genetic issues. Exploring a range of issues and...

Iceland was the last country in Europe to become inhabited, and we know more about the beginnings and early history of Icelandic society than we do of any other in the Old World. This world was vividly recounted in The Book of Settlements, first compiled by the first Icelandic historians in the thirteenth century. It describes in detail individuals and daily life during the Icelandic Age of Settlement.

The Man Who Stole Himself: The Slave Odyssey of Hans Jonathan
ISBN: 9780226313283 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The island nation of Iceland is known for many things--majestic landscapes, volcanic eruptions, distinctive seafood--but racial diversity is not one of them. So the little-known story of Hans Jonathan, a free black man who lived and raised a family in early nineteenth-century Iceland, is improbable and compelling, the stuff of novels.
In The Man Who Stole Himself, Gisli Palsson lays out the story of Hans Jonathan (also known as Hans Jonatan) in stunning detail. Born into slavery in St. Croix in 1784, Hans was taken as a slave to Denmark, where he eventually enlisted in the navy and...

Inisde Voices, Outside Light : Translated and Introduced by Martin Regal
ISBN: 9781906570583 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book presents poems from Palsson's ten collections written between 1980-2008. Swirling with imagery, they reveal a poet committed to unearthing the joy of living connected to the natural world. For Palsson, poetry contains such energy and force to upset chronology, ideas run amok, views close and open. Space is compressed so the various fabrics of the world are folded into each other, creating a causal layering of the natural and man-made. This is a thrilling sweep across this poet's work.

Language of Power: Feasting and Gift-Giving in Medieval Iceland and Its Sagas
ISBN: 9780935995213 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Language of Power, Vioar Palsson addresses pre-modern European power relationships that provide the context for narratives of feasts and exchanges of gifts so conspicuous in the Icelandic sagas. Vioar's point of departure considers "comparative perspectives on rituals, the sociology of power, and pre-state political cultures in Europe," focusing on medieval Europe and its political and cultural heritage from classical antiquity, before proceeding to a similar contemplation of sagas of kings of Norway and sagas of the Icelandic commonwealth. In writing for scholars of Icelandic... In Language of Power, Vioar Palsson addresses pre-modern European power relationships that provide the context for narratives of feasts an... |
