The Subject of Care: Feminist Perspectives on Dependency
ISBN: 9780742513631 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. All people spend a considerable portion of their lives either as dependents or the caretakers of dependents. The fact of human dependency--a function of youth, severe illness, disability, or frail old age--marks our lives, not only as those who are cared for, but as those who engage in the work of caring. In spite of the time, energy and resources-material and emotional, social and individual-that dependency care requires, these concerns rarely enter into philosophical, legal, and political discussions. In The Subject of Care, feminist scholars consider how acknowledgement of the fact of...

Metaphor: Its Cognitive Force and Linguistic Structure
ISBN: 9780198242468 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A detailed revision and refinement of the "semantic theory of metaphor," this book provides a comprehensive philosophical theory explicating metaphor's cognitive contribution. According to the author, metaphor effects a transference of meaning, not between two terms, but between two structured domains of content, or "semantic fields." Semantic fields, construed as necessary to a theory of word-meaning, provide the contrastive and affinitive relations that govern a term's literal use. In a metaphoric use, these relations are projected into a second domain which is thereby reordered with...

Making Sense of Intersex: Changing Ethical Perspectives in Biomedicine
ISBN: 9780253012241 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Putting the ethical tools of philosophy to work, Ellen K. Feder seeks to clarify how we should understand "the problem" of intersex. Adults often report that medical interventions they underwent as children to "correct" atypical sex anatomies caused them physical and psychological harm. Proposing a philosophical framework for the treatment of children with intersex conditions--one that acknowledges the intertwined identities of parents, children, and their doctors--Feder presents a persuasive moral argument for collective responsibility to these children and their families. Putting the ethical tools of philosophy to work, Ellen K. Feder seeks to clarify how we should understand "the problem" of intersex. Adults often r... |

Family Bonds: Genealogies of Race and Gender
ISBN: 9780195314755 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Feminist and critical race theorists alike have long acknowledged the "intersection" of gender and race difference; it is by now a truism that the ways we become boys and girls, men and women, cannot be disentangled from the ways we become white or Black men and women, Asian or Latino boys and girls. And yet, even as many have sought to attend to this intersection of difference, most critical treatments focus finally either on the production of gender or the production of race. Family Bonds proposes a new way to think about the categories of gender and race together. It first...

Archaeology attempts to answer the question "where do we come from?" in the broadest sense possible; as a result, it is a highly interesting topic for all mankind.
