ISBN: 9780522855579 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

Beautifully written and extensively researched, this guide chronicles the issues surrounding inheritance and the power of objects to bind and unbind families. Written from a sociologist's perspective, this wide-ranging examination of grief is supplemented by firsthand accounts from Australians of various ages and...

'Artes' and Bible in the Medieval West
ISBN: 9780860783657 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The articles in this volume fall into two main groups, the one dealing with secular learning and especially grammar and logic, the other with biblical scholarship, while the final articles look at the work of particular scholars. Margaret Gibson, however, would see them all as closely interrelated. Scholars in the Latin West, from the end of Antiquity right through the 12th century, were united in the belief that all knowledge, if true, was compatible and that sapientia was one and coherent. In the same way, she would hold, it is impossible to study only the a artesa given their implication...

The thirteen poems of the opening sequence, as well as other poems throughout, look steadily at life and death until they are transparently "one body." "Closer to death," she writes, "I want great faith and great doubt." Whether the focus is personal or social, Gibson has written the poems in this stunning collection "because I want to see / how the body goes still / how the...

Broken Cup
ISBN: 9780807156421 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Broken Cup brings breathtaking eloquence to what Margaret Gibson describes as "traveling the Way of Alzheimer's" with her husband, poet David McKain. After his initial and tentative diagnosis, Gibson suspended her writing for two years; but then poetry returned, and the creative process became the lightning rod that grounded her and presented a path forward. The poems in Broken Cup bear witness to how Alzheimer's erodes memory and cognitive function, but they never forget to see what is present and to ask what may remain of the self.
Moving and unflinchingly honest in the acknowledgment... Broken Cup brings breathtaking eloquence to what Margaret Gibson describes as "traveling the Way of Alzheimer's" with her husband, poet David McKain. ...
