The Music of Ruth Crawford Seeger
ISBN: 9780521548182 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is the first full-length analytical study of the music of Ruth Crawford Seeger. Crawford was a pivotal figure in the American avant-garde, the so-called ???ultra-modern??? movement of the 1920s and 1930s. In addition to her historical significance, as part of the first generation of American composers to step out from the shadow of European models, her music deserves attention for its original and compelling structures and its expressive power. Crawford created new ways of writing melodies, of combining them in heterogeneous juxtaposition, of projecting musical ideas over the...

The Human Rights Paradox: Universality and Its Discontents
ISBN: 9780299299743 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Human rights are paradoxical. Advocates across the world invoke the idea that such rights belong to all people, no matter who or where they are. But since humans can only realize their rights in particular places, human rights are both always and never universal.
The Human Rights Paradox is the first book to fully embrace this contradiction and reframe human rights as history, contemporary social advocacy, and future prospect. In case studies that span Africa, Latin America, South and Southeast Asia, and the United States, contributors carefully illuminate how social actors create... Human rights are paradoxical.

Sounding Off: Theorizing Disability in Music
ISBN: 9780415979078 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Disability, understood as culturally stigmatized bodily difference (including physical and mental impairments of all kinds), is a pervasive and permanent aspect of the human condition. While the biology of bodily difference is the proper study for science and medicine, the meaning that we attach to bodily difference is the proper study of humanists. The interdisciplinary field of Disability Studies has recently emerged to theorize social and cultural constructions of the meaning of disability. Although there has been an astonishing outpouring of humanistic work in Disability...

Corporal Punishment of Children in Theoretical Perspective
ISBN: 9780300085471 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Despite being commonplace in American households a generation ago, corporal punishment of children has been subjected to criticism and shifting attitudes in recent years. Many school districts have banned it, and many child advocates recommend that parents no longer spank or strike their children. In this book, social theorist Michael Donnelly and family violence expert Murray A. Straus tap the expertise of social science scholars and researchers who address issues of corporal punishment, a subject that is now characterized as a key issue in child welfare. The contributors discuss corporal...

Hesiod's Cosmos
ISBN: 9780521823920 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study reveals the unity of Hesiod's vision of the Cosmos by reading both his poems as two complementary halves of a whole embracing the human and divine cosmos. In the Theogony and Works and Days, Hesiod, roughly contemporary with Homer, does not describe the deeds of the heroes. He provides instead the earliest comprehensive account of the genesis of the Greek gods and the nature of human life that became the foundation for later Greek literature and philosophy.

The Khmer Rouge Tribunal: Power, Politics, and Resistance in Transitional Justice
ISBN: 9780299343606 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Understanding the ECCC and transnational justice in a local context. From 1975 to 1979, while Cambodia was ruled by the brutal Communist Party of Kampuchea (Khmer Rouge) regime, torture, starvation, rape, and forced labor contributed to the death of at least a fifth of the country's population. Despite the severity of these abuses, civil war and international interference prevented investigation until 2004, when protracted negotiations between the Cambodian government and the United Nations resulted in the establishment of the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC), or Khmer...

Psychiatry and Philosophy
ISBN: 9783642879869 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 161 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The three essays reprinted in this book were first published in 1963 as individual chapters of a psychiatric treatise entitled Psychiatrie der Gegen wart (Psychiatry of the Present Day). The editors, W. H. GRUHLE (Bonn), R. JUNG (Freiburg/Br. ), W. MAYER-GROSS (Birmingham, England), M. MUL LER (Bern, Switzerland), had not planned an encyclopedic presentation; they did not intend to present a "handbook" which would be as complete as possible in details and bibliographic reference. Their intention was to "raze the walls" separating Continental and Anglo-Saxon psychiatries and to offer a...

Systemic Silencing: Activism, Memory, and Sexual Violence in Indonesia
ISBN: 9780299344207 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Recognizing and addressing enforced military prostitution in occupied Indonesia. The system of prostitution imposed and enforced by the Japanese military during its wartime occupation of several countries in East and Southeast Asia is today well-known and uniformly condemned. Transnational activist movements have sought to recognize and redress survivors of this World War II-era system, euphemistically known as "comfort women," for decades, with a major wave beginning in the 1990s. However, Indonesian survivors, and even the system's history in Indonesia to begin with, have largely been...

Milton Babbitt: Words about Music
ISBN: 9780299107949 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Many consider Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Milton Babbitt to be the preeminent figure in post-World War II American music. Beyond the extraordinary power of his music, he is also, as he says, somewhat known as a talker. In fact, he is renowned as an energetic teacher and inspired lecturer. In 1983 at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Babbitt presented a concise summary of his most essential musical insights in a series of lectures and seminars. These are gathered here, presenting for the first time in book form a comprehensive overview of the subjects that have formed the core of his...

Stravinsky's Late Music
ISBN: 9780521602884 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is the first to be devoted to the music of Stravinsky's last compositional period. In the early 1950s, Stravinsky's compositional style began to change and evolve with astonishing rapidity. He abandoned the musical neoclassicism to which he had been committed for the preceding three decades and, with the stimulus provided by his newly gained knowledge of the music of Schoenberg and Webern, launched himself on a remarkable voyage of compositional discovery. The book focuses on five historical, analytical, and interpretive issues: Stravinsky's relationship to his serial predecessors...

Twelve-Tone Music in America
ISBN: 9781107637313 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Most histories of American music have ignored the presence of twelve-tone music before and during the Second World War, and virtually all have ignored its presence after 1970, even though so many major composers continued (and continue) to compose serially. This book provides a comprehensive history of twelve-tone music in America, and compels a revised picture of American music since 1925 as a dynamic steady-state within which twelve-tone serialism has long been, and still remains, a persistent presence: a vigorous and unbroken tradition for more than eighty years. Straus outlines how,...
