Gender and the City in Euripides' Political Plays
ISBN: 9780199249565 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The first full-length study of Children of Herakles and Suppliant Women to appear in fifty years, Gender and the City in Euripides' Political Plays uses fresh insights into the Greek conception of gender and the Athenian ideology of civic identity to demonstrate at last the formal elegance and intellectual complexity of two works that are still dismissed as artistic failures within the poet's oeuvre.

Jews and the Sporting Life: Studies in Contemporary Jewry XXIII
ISBN: 9780195382914 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Volume XXIII of the distinguished annual Studies in Contemporary Jewry explores the role of sports in modern Jewish history. The centrality of sports in modern life--in popular and even in high culture, in economic life, in the media, in international and national politics, and in forging ethnic identities--can hardly be exaggerated, but in the field of Jewish studies this subject has been somewhat neglected, at least until recently. Students of American Jewish history, for example, often emphasize the role of sports in the Americanization of the immigrants, while students of Jewish...

The Elusive Embrace: Desire and the Riddle of Identity
ISBN: 9780375706974 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Hailed for its searing emotional insights, and for the astonishing originality with which it weaves together personal history, cultural essay, and readings of classical texts by Sophocles, Ovid, Euripides, and Sappho, The Elusive Embrace is a profound exploration of the mysteries of identity. It is also a meditation in which the author uses his own divided life to investigate the "rich conflictedness of things," the double lives all of us lead. Daniel Mendelsohn recalls the deceptively quiet suburb where he grew up, torn between his mathematician father's pursuit of scientific...

Burning Down the House
ISBN: 9781101911198 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. It begins with two girls: Neva, from the Caucasus, sold into the sex trade; and Poppy, the adopted daughter of a wealthy New York real estate family, the Zanes. As their paths cross and their fates intertwine in an exquisite high drama that blurs the lines between realism and myth, we travel with them from lavish weddings to the transglobal underworld; from London and New York to Laos and Istanbul; and we watch as the mighty Zane dynasty slips from greatness. Mendelsohn captures the emotional worlds of these characters with visceral immediacy, and transforms their private narratives...

Introduction to Mathematical Logic
ISBN: 9781461572909 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 342 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This is a compact mtroduction to some of the pnncipal tOpICS of mathematical logic . In the belief that beginners should be exposed to the most natural and easiest proofs, I have used free-swinging set-theoretic methods. The significance of a demand for constructive proofs can be evaluated only after a certain amount of experience with mathematical logic has been obtained. If we are to be expelled from "Cantor's paradise" (as nonconstructive set theory was called by Hilbert), at least we should know what we are missing. The major changes in this new edition are the following. (1) In Chapter...

Chasing Moonbeams: A Book of Poetry
ISBN: 9781434376237 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. These poems are about the little things in life, the snippets that make up millions of moments in time. From eating ice cream cones and reading under the covers in summer camp to dealing with life's clutter. But they are also about the "big" issues of life- aging, separation, devasting illness and death. However, even with these inelegant moments, there is often humor, because we do not control many events that cross our paths in the course of a life. If we can laugh along the way, maybe we can ease the pain.
