Jewish Aramaic Curse Texts from Late-Antique Mesopotamia: "May These Curses Go Out and Flee"
ISBN: 9789004250925 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The corpus of Aramaic incantation bowls from Sasanian Mesopotamia is perhaps the most important source we have for studying the everyday beliefs and practices of the Jewish, Christian, Mandaean, Manichaean, Zoroastrian and Pagan communities on the eve of the Islamic conquests. In Jewish Aramaic Curse Texts from Late-Antique Mesopotamia, Dan Levene collects and analyses a selection of Jewish Babylonian Aramaic incantation bowls. While such texts are usually apotropaic or healing in purpose, those collected here are distinctive in that their purpose was to curse or return curses against...

The Massacre in History
ISBN: 9781571819345 / Twarda / 1999 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The role of massacre in history has been given little focused attention either by historians or academics in related fields. This is surprising as its prevalence and persistence surely demands that it should be a subject of serious and systematic exploration. What exactly is a massacre? When - and why - does it happen? Is there a cultural, as well as political framework within which it occurs? How do human societies respond to it? What are its social and economic repercussions? Are massacres catalysts for change or are they part of the continuity of the human saga? These are just some of...

Powers of Distinction: On Religion and Modernity
ISBN: 9780226507361 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. In this major new work, philosopher of religion Nancy Levene examines the elemental character of religion and modernity. Deep in their operating systems, she argues, are dualisms of opposition and identity that cannot be reconciled with the forms of life they ostensibly support. The missing position is neither non-dualism nor multiplication but a second dualism constitutive of mutual relation--relation that risks contestation and even violence but also supports modernity's most innovative ideals: democracy, criticism, and interpretation. In readings from Abraham to the present, Levene...

From the years leading up to the First World War to the aftermath of the Second, Europe experienced an era of genocide. As well as the Holocaust, this period also witnessed the Armenian genocide in 1915, mass killings in Bolshevik and Stalinist Russia, and a host of further ethnic cleansings in Anatolia, the Balkans, and Eastern Europe.
