Jews and Judaism played a significant role in the history of the expansion of Europe to the west as well as in the history of the economic, social, and religious development of the New World. They played an important role in the discovery, colonization, and eventually exploitation of the resources of the New World.

New Studies on Lex Regia: Right, Philology and Fides Historica in Holland Between the 17 Th and 18 Th Centuries
ISBN: 9783034305433 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 351 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. What significance did the Lex Regia De Imperio Vespasiani bear for the Dutch philosophers in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries? Did it simply define a question of law and its ancient use? Was it responsible for the definition of a scholarly exercise in literary-rhetorical regulae? New Studies on Lex Regia explores these questions as the dispute on a non-literary source (the Lex Regia) is exemplary for the way in which philological research came together with interpretations of the Roman law and the political conclusions drawn from them.

Fragments from a Land of Freedom: Essays in American Culture around the Year 2000
ISBN: 9780979448898 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book covers the USA around 2000 through the lens of cultural studies: books, events, exhibitions, and places of learning are seen as mirrors of an affluent, self-sufficient, at least apparently harmonic society just before the collapse of the markets and the 9/11 tragedy. America seemed to be unaware of what history had in place for her. The country was coming to terms with its past, looking favorably towards the future, and waiting for even better times ahead. This book explores movies, from Spike Lee's to Stanley Kubrick's; cities, from Atlantic City to Philadelphia; minorities, from...

This book offers an innovative approach to the altarpieces of Giambattista Tiepolo (1696-1770) by discussing them within the intellectual context of the first half of the eighteenth century.

There were suicides for love and for homeland, suicides for despair, and suicides for ennui. In Italy, once a very traditional, Catholic country, where suicide was very uncommon and rarely treated as a subject of moral theology or literature, it suddenly became extremely widespread. This book...

Elementary Instructions for Students of Sculpture
ISBN: 9780892366880 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This is a translation of the 1802 introduction to studio practices for sculpture students by Francesco Carradori (1747-1824), a sculptor, restorer, and instructor of sculpture at the Accademia in Florence from 1786 to 1821. Carradori's instructions are vital to understanding the art and craft of sculpting as they were practiced before the twentieth century, since little substantial material exists that demonstrates, in an informed, didactic manner, the various tools and techniques used by ancient sculptors to execute work, Carradori's work is the most comprehensive and instructive and...
