Baldwin's personal reflections on movies gathered here in a book-length essay are also a probing appraisal of American racial politics. Offering an incisive look at racism in American movies and a vision of America's self-delusions and deceptions, Baldwin challenges the underlying assumptions in such films as In the Heat of the Night, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, and The Exorcist. Here are our loves and hates, biases and cruelties, fears and ignorance reflected by the films that have entertained us and shaped our consciousness. And here too is the stunning prose of a...

When the glad news of his birth was told, Earth smiled, and decked herself with flowers; the nymphs of Delos sang songs of joy that were heard to the utmost bounds of Greece; and choirs of white swans flew seven times around the island, piping notes of praise to the pure being who had come to dwell among men. Then Zeus looked down from high Olympus, and crowned the babe with a golden head-band, and put into his hands a silver bow and a sweet-toned lyre such as no man had ever seen; and he gave him a team of white swans to drive,...

A Story of the Golden Age of Greek Heroes
ISBN: 9786256629325 / Angielski / Miękka / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Homer commences his story, not at the beginning, but "in the midst of things;" hence, when one starts out to read the Iliad without having made some special preparation beforehand, he finds it hard to understand, and is tempted, in despair, to stop at the end of the first book. Many people are, therefore, content to admire the great masterpiece of poetry and story-telling simply because others admire it, and not because they have any personal acquaintance with it. Now, it is not my purpose to give you a "simplified version" of the Iliad or the Odyssey. There are already many such versions;...

ISBN: 9786256004504 / Angielski / Miękka / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych.

Free renderings, they may...

Go Tell It on the Mountain
ISBN: 9780375701870 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "Mountain," Baldwin said, "is the book I had to write if I was ever going to write anything else."

Baldwin's...
