ISBN: 9780226184012 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Murray Edelman holds a unique and distinguished position in American political science. For decades one of the few serious scholars to question dominant rational-choice interpretations of politics, Edelman looked instead to the powerful influence of signs, spectacles, and symbols of culture on political behavior and political institutions. His first, now classic, book, "The Symbolic Uses of Politics," created paths of inquiry in political science, communication studies, and sociology that are still being explored today.
In this book, Edelman continues his quest to understand the influence... Murray Edelman holds a unique and distinguished position in American political science. For decades one of the few serious scholars to question domina...

ISBN: 9781441104076 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Six scholars explore the nature of history and historical reconstruction and the place of history within biblical studies.

A growing number of scholars are questioning the theoretical underpinnings of the main 'schools' of research and are calling for an approach that makes a more critical evaluation of both textual and artifactual material before using it in historical...

The Last Mojito
ISBN: 9781597090148 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The poems in The Last Mojito were written between 2000 and 2004. The six distinct sections of the bookthe ingredients of the infamous mojito (mint, sugar, lime, rum, ice, and club soda)were chosen, initially, to impart a rather playful frame to the collection's content. Quite a few of the poems, of course, reveal the presence of alcohol. In almost all cases, more often than not, the mere mention of spirits or booze is employed as a continual theme, helping to open up friendships or any relationships in a way that bring the narrators closer towards a supposed set of insights gained from...

Dream of the Gone-From City treads the fault lines between worlds: internal and external, natural and constructed, past and present. -Blessed am I, when neither/here nor there- Edelman writes, probing borders between mothers and daughters, lovers tracing words in sand, the living and the dead.

An Humorous Day's Mirth: By George Chapman
ISBN: 9781526116925 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. George Chapman is known today as a translator of Homer and as the author of dark tragedies such as Bussy D'Ambois. An Humorous Day's Mirth, written in 1597, was one of the most popular plays of the Elizabethan era. Not only was Chapman's play the Rose Theatre's greatest box-office success of that year, but it also presented an entirely new type of comedy, one that has profoundly influenced comic writing up to the present day. This play is the English theatre's first 'comedy of humours', in which the attitudes, behaviour, and social pretensions of contemporary men and women are satirised....

In this clearly written and tightly argued analysis of the various Israeli court systems, Martin Edelman probes a fundamental issue: whether those courts protect human rights while fostering the development of a common, inclusive national culture.

Courts, Politics, and Culture in Israel is a major contribution to the study of comparative...

The Consciousness Revolutions: From Amoeba Awareness to Human Emancipation
ISBN: 9783031240119 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is about all things consciousness, great and small. It starts by pointing to the key characteristic of consciousness, without realizing which it cannot be understood: like everything else about the mind, it is fundamentally a kind of computation. Among many other matters, this explains: how it is that we share some aspects of consciousness with bacteria; how it can arise in artificial machines and not just living ones; how the empty cocoon of the self that it spins ends up pretending to be the butterfly; and how consciousness dooms this virtual butterfly to the splendor and the...
