Tantric Revisionings: New Understandings of Tibetan Buddhism and Indian Religion
ISBN: 9780754652809 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Tantric Revisionings presents stimulating new perspectives on Hindu and Buddhist religion, particularly their Tantric versions, in India, Tibet or in modern Western societies. Geoffrey Samuel adopts an historically and textually informed anthropological approach, seeking to locate and understand religion in its social and cultural context. The question of the relation between 'popular' (folk, domestic, village, 'shamanic') religion and elite (literary, textual, monastic) religion forms a recurring theme through these studies. Six chapters have not been previously published; the previously...

The Origins of Yoga and Tantra: Indic Religions to the Thirteenth Century
ISBN: 9780521695343 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 434 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Yoga, tantra and other forms of Asian meditation are practised in modernized forms throughout the world today, but most introductions to Hinduism or Buddhism tell only part of the story of how they developed. This book is an interpretation of the history of Indic religions up to around 1200 CE, with particular focus on the development of yogic and tantric traditions. It assesses how much we really know about this period, and asks what sense we can make of the evolution of yogic and tantric practices, which were to become such central and important features of the Indic religious scene. Its...

Rethinking Legal Reasoning
ISBN: 9781784712624 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 'Rethinking' legal reasoning seems a bold aim given the large amount of literature devoted to this topic. In this thought-provoking book, Geoffrey Samuel proposes a different way of approaching legal reasoning by examining the topic through the context of legal knowledge (epistemology). What is it to have knowledge of legal reasoning? At a more specific level the pursuit of this understanding is conducted through posing a number of questions that are founded on different approaches. What has legal reasoning been? What are the institutional and conceptual legacies of this history? What is...

Mind, Body and Culture: Anthropology and the Biological Interface
ISBN: 9780521024945 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Concerned with the aspects of human behaviour which have been traditionally described as cultural or social, the author draws on his background in physics to suggest a scientific approach involving a reconceptualization of many of our assumed concepts. Are culture, society and similar concepts from anthropology and sociology of any real use in making sense of human social life? How can we understand the relationship between the social group and the individual human beings, with their self-awareness and sense of personal identity, who make it up? Drawing on his background in physics, Dr Samuel...

ISBN: 9781859415665 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 644 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines the notion of a law of obligations as a conceptual category in itself; and, in doing this, it presents the foundational material in a context that draws on some comparative and theoretical ideas while, at the same time, emphasising the special characteristics of the common law. The book is specifically designed to act as an introduction to the legal research skills of reasoning and method. It also looks at the foundations of civil liability in a way that emphasises the interrelationship of source materials, problem solving and conceptual analysis and...

ISBN: 9781138119376 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Subtle-body practices are found particularly in Indian, Indo-Tibetan and East Asian societies, but have become increasingly familiar in Western societies, especially through the various healing and yogic techniques and exercises associated with them. This book explores subtle-body practices from a variety of perspectives, and includes both studies of these practices in Asian and Western contexts. The book discusses how subtle-body practices assume a quasi-material level of human existence that is intermediate between conventional concepts of body and mind. Often, this level is...

"No one is better qualified than Tucci to write a general yet comprehensive work on such a complex subject.

We have both a thorough analysis of significant texts as well as a description...
