Biblical Curses and the Displacement of Tradition
ISBN: 9781907534119 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 322 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In Biblical Curses and the Displacement of Tradition Brian Britt offers an intriguing perspective on curses as the focus of debates over the power, pleasure, and danger of words. Biblical authors transformed ancient Near Eastern curses against rival ethnic groups, disobedient ancestors, and the day of one's own birth with great variety and ingenuity.

Rewriting Moses: The Narrative Eclipse of the Text
ISBN: 9780567092052 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

In other words, do these exchanges amount to any meaningful type of social organization? Are they more than the mere froth of collective emotion discharging its energy with a lot of noise but little consequence against the wave breakers of social media? Do the social interactions that take place in virtual space-all those kind or not-so-kind words sent back and forth-suggest the same level of commitment, dedication, morality, passion, or even depravity that we see in everyday life? Or, more succinctly, is...
