Loot, Legitimacy and Ownership: The Ethical Crisis in Archaeology
ISBN: 9780715630341 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Colin Renfrew argues that what is most precious in archaeology is the information that excavations can shed on our human past. Yet the clandestine and unpublished digging of archaeological sites for gain - looting - is destroying the context in which archaeological findings can be understood, as well as sabotaging the most valuable information. It is the source of most of the antiquities that appear on the art market today - unprovenanced antiquities, the product of illicit traffic financed, knowingly or not by the collectors and museums that buy them on a no-questions-asked basis. This... Colin Renfrew argues that what is most precious in archaeology is the information that excavations can shed on our human past. Yet the clandestine ... |

The Sapient Mind: Archaeology Meets Neuroscience
ISBN: 9780199561995 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The turn of the twenty-first century has seen a new era in the cognitive and brain sciences that allows us to address the age-old question of what it means to be human from a whole new range of different perspectives. Our knowledge of the workings of the human brain increases day by day and so does our understanding of the extended, distributed, embodied and culturally mediated character of the human mind. The problem is that these major ways of thinking about human cognition and the threads of evidence that they carry with them often seem to diverge, rather than confront one another. The...

Mikhail Bakhtin was one of the twentieth century s most influential literary theorists.

Wings of Empire: The Forgotten Wars of the Royal Air Force, 1919-1939
ISBN: 9780750989381 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. At the end of the First World War, British imperial power was at an all-time low. That was until a ragtag band of visionaries, including Winston Churchill and T.E. Lawrence, proposed that the aeroplane, the wonder weapon of the age, could save the empire. Using the radical strategy of air control, the RAF tried to subdue vast swathes of the Middle East, Asia and Africa. Wings of Empire is a compelling account of the colonial air campaigns that saw a generation of young airmen take to the skies to battle against cultures that had never seen a plane before. This is the full story of the...

The Ancient Mind
ISBN: 9780521456203 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. One of the most troubling problems in archaeology is to determine the manner and content of prehistoric thought. A fundamental challenge is to develop the theory, methodology and tools to understand human cognition. Cognitive archaeology as a subject is still in its infancy, and archaeologists are adopting a variety of approaches--literary, linguistic, and scientific. The contributors to The Ancient Mind develop a new direction in prehistoric cognitive research that is rooted in the scientific tradition and in an empirical methodology. Together, they begin to develop a science of cognitive...
