Identifying the roots of African American spirituals and other religious folk music has intrigued academics, hymnologists and song leaders since this genre came to the public eye in 1867. The conversation on origins has waned and waxed for over eighty years, sometimes polemical, sometimes compromising. They Bear Acquaintance looks at this discussion through the output of various well-regarded researchers from the twentieth century. The effects of cultural distinctions, immigration patterns and class structure have all left their imprint on the anatomy of the music. No one living...

The Religion of Dostoevsky
ISBN: 9781532604768 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Why has Dostoevsky influenced so much of the religious thinking of our times? His impact on modern theologians--Barth, for example--has been great, and thousands of his readers have been stirred by his extraordinary power to register metaphysical insights in narrative form. This fresh and subtle study of Dostoevsky's life and writing demonstrates that the great Russian's relevance for our day lies in his perception that religious faith and philosophic doubt are inseparable in his illustration that the practice of religion and intellectual scruples belong together and actually enhance each...

Film Blackness: American Cinema and the Idea of Black Film
ISBN: 9780822362050 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Film Blackness Michael Boyce Gillespie shifts the ways we think about black film, treating it not as a category, a genre, or strictly a representation of the black experience but as a visual negotiation between film as art and the discursivity of race. Gillespie challenges expectations that black film can or should represent the reality of black life or provide answers to social problems. Instead, he frames black film alongside literature, music, art, photography, and new media, treating it as an interdisciplinary form that enacts black visual and expressive culture. Gillespie...

Left of Karl Marx: The Political Life of Black Communist Claudia Jones
ISBN: 9780822341161 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 342 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych.

Jones is buried in London's Highgate Cemetery, to the left of Karl Marx--a location that Boyce Davies finds fitting given how Jones expanded Marxism-Leninism to incorporate gender and race in her political critique and activism.
Claudia Cumberbatch Jones was born in Trinidad. In 1924, she moved to New York, where she lived for the next thirty years. She was active in the Communist Party from...

Arrival: Poems
ISBN: 9780810135147 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. ARRIVAL is a poetic love story between mother and daughter. The poems are road maps, intertwining generations with a narrative beginning in 1950 with a woman who is pregnant with twins. In her seventh month she delivers a stillborn boy and a baby girl weighing less than two pounds. From there, the evocation of a series of catastrophic family events brings forth Cheryl Boyce-Taylor s power to strip her readers down to their most vulnerable. Boyce-Taylor is steeped in the narratives of Trinidad and New York City, colored with metaphorical stew-pot images. She revels in her lyrical range...
