Criticism and Modernity: Aesthetics, Literature, and Nations in Europe and Its Academies
ISBN: 9780198185017 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book argues that from the late seventeenth century to the present national cultures have sought to regulate the democratic subject through the academic form of arguments about the proper relations of aesthetics to ethics and politics. It offers a radical reconsideration of the history of modernity, tracing the emergence of criticism as a socio-cultural practice across all the major European nations, and drawing on an extensive range of European literature and philosophy.

Traffic Jam: Ten Years of 'Sustainable' Transport in the UK
ISBN: 9781847420725 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This informed and lively book offers a timely analysis of the UK government's sustainable - or subsequently 'integrated' - transport policy 10 years after the publication of "A New Deal for Transport: Better for Everyone." Written by prominent transport experts and with a foreword by Christian Wolmar, the book identifies the modest successes and, sadly, the far more significant failures in government policy over the last decade. The authors also uncover why it has proved so difficult to adopt a more sustainable approach to transport and break Britain's love-affair with the car.The book...

Aesthetic Democracy
ISBN: 9780804751889 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Aesthetic Democracy argues that art and the aesthetic in general are the founding condition of the possibility of establishing social and political democracy. The book examines contemporary criticism and finds that it is historically shaped by colonialism, and that it sets up an opposition of east and west that shapes all contemporary cultural politics. The author argues for a way of outwitting this potentially dangerous struggle of east and west grounded in an aestheticism and a validation of sensory experience. Docherty proposes a new model of cultural critique, based on a...

ISBN: 9781849666596 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book explores what is at stake in our confessional culture. Thomas Docherty examines confessional writings from Augustine to Montaigne and from Sylvia Plath to Derrida, arguing that through all this work runs a philosophical substratum - the conditions under which it is possible to assert a confessional mode - that needs exploration and explication.

Complicity: Criticism Between Collaboration and Commitment
ISBN: 9781786601025 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 154 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Complicity argues that all existing modes of cultural critique are regarded as legitimate and productive if and only if they are complicit with the very ideologies and values that the criticism sets out to undermine. Through philosophical, literary and theoretical analysis, Thomas Docherty shows how easy it has been for criticism to become essentially an act of political collaboration with existing governmental power. The book explores the various ways in which, both historically and theoretically, critical activity has become complicit with the over-arching social and political norms that it...

Independence Day
ISBN: 9781326165451 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 85 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Independence Day moves on from previous work, while still retaining some continuities in theme, style and approach. It is a book of journeys, literal and metaphorical, making use of ekphrastic techniques. The poems here start out from north London, taking the reader to San Francisco, New York, Baku, Kuala Lumpur, France, Russia, and back again, while remaining firmly grounded in the writer's locale. As ever, political realities and social issues are not neglected; these poems move to a contemporary music without losing seriousness of purpose without resorting to agit-prop.

Covering the breadth of a large topic, this book provides a thorough grounding in object-oriented concepts, the software development process, UML and multi-tier technologies. After covering some basic ground work underpinning OO software projects, the book follows the steps of a typical development project (Requirements Capture - Design - Specification & Test), showing how an abstract problem is taken through to a concrete solution.

After Theory
ISBN: 9780748608409 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book proposes the necessity of a new critical attitude appropriate to a post-enlightenment social and political condition. Theory--the intellectual and his or her knowledge--has been institutionalised and tamed; the critic interested in praxis must find a new means of establishing an effective intellection. After Theory argues the demand for a post-theoretical or ana-theoretical attitude which will recondition and regenerate critique under the aegis of a philosophical and austere postmarxism. The 'waking' of theory advanced here ranges eclectically over twentieth-century practice in...
