Death in Ancient China: The Tale of One Man's Journey
ISBN: 9789004153127 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This richly illustrated book provides a glimpse into the belief system and the material wealth of the social elite in pre-Imperial China through a close analysis of tomb contents and excavated bamboo texts. The point of departure is the textual and material evidence found in one tomb of an elite man buried in 316 BCE near a once wealthy middle Yangzi River valley metropolis.

The author shows how illness and death were perceived as steps in a spiritual journey from one realm into another....

Lobbying for Higher Education: History, Representation, Ethics
ISBN: 9780826513175 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Historically, many faculty and administrators in higher education have regarded themselves as above the fray--part of the national interest, not a special interest--and considered lobbying a dirty business unworthy of their lofty enterprise. Now that academia no longer enjoys all the respect and good will that federal policy makers once afforded it, that attitude has changed. The Republican sweep of the 1994 Congressional elections served as a wake-up call for the higher education community. In response, it made a spirited effort to gain attention for its own policy...

ISBN: 9789004461208 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What do dice and gods have in common?

ISBN: 9780765615992 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Ancient China: A History surveys the East Asian Heartland Region the geographical area that eventually became known as China from the Neolithic period through the Bronze Age, to the early imperial era of Qin and Han, up to the threshold of the medieval period in the third century CE. For most of that long span of time there was no such place as "China"; the vast and varied territory of the Heartland Region was home to many diverse cultures that only slowly coalesced, culturally, linguistically, and politically, to form the first recognizably Chinese empires. The... Ancient China: A History surveys the East Asian Heartland Region the geographical area that eventually became known as China from the Neol... |
