Myths We Live by
ISBN: 9780776604442 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 181 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Colin Grant challenges the popular use of "myth" as a dismissive designation of the superstitions and falsehoods of "other" cultures. The author maintains that myths occupy a place in our present-day lives that is every bit as important to us as the divinities and heroes of classical antiquity were to the ancients. The myths themselves are in a constant state of flux and transformation. They ebb and flow, both within the context of wider culture and individual experience.

One of our best and brightest non-fiction writers examines for the first time the story of the Wailers. It charts their complex relationship, their fluctuating fortunes, musical peak, and the politics and ideologies that...

Negro with a Hat: The Rise and Fall of Marcus Garvey
ISBN: 9780195367942 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 544 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. New in paperback, this groundbreaking biography captures the full sweep and epic dimensions of Marcus Garvey's life, the dazzling triumphs and the dreary exile. As Grant shows, Garvey was a man of contradictions: a self-educated, poetry-writing aesthete and unabashed propagandist, an admirer of Lenin, and a dandy given to elaborate public displays. Above all, he was a shrewd promoter whose use of pageantry evoked a lost African civilization and fired the imagination of his followers. Negro With a Hat restores Garvey to his place as one of the founders of black nationalism and a key figure of...

Altruism and Christian Ethics
ISBN: 9780521093613 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Separated from its anchorage in religion, ethics has followed the social sciences in seeing human beings as fundamentally characterized by self-interest, so that altruism is either naively idealistic or arrogantly self-sufficient. Colin Grant contends that, as a modern secular concept, altruism is a parody on the self-giving love of Christianity, so that its dismissal represents a social leveling that loses the depths that theology makes intelligible and religion makes possible. He argues that to dispense with altruism is to dispense with God and with the divine transformation of human...

Post-transcendental Communication; Contexts of Human Autonomy
ISBN: 9783039110322 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Compared with other human and social sciences, communication theory appears to be of recent origin. Appearances deceive, however, for the antecedents of this growing field of work can be found in the classic philosophical treatises of western and non-western thinkers including Plato, Sextus Empiricus and Laozi, reaching forward through the theolinguistic tradition of St Augustine, Boethius, Averroes and Ockham before arriving at the modern age. Following Wittgenstein s linguistic turn and Husserl s phenomenology in the early decades of the twentieth century, we arrive at the fertile plains of...

ISBN: 9789051837858 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This study, the first of its kind in English, sets out to analyse literature as a form of social communication by considering developments in literary theory and practice in the German Democratic Republic in the Honecker era.
