No Medium
ISBN: 9780262527552 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In No Medium, Craig Dworkin looks at works that are blank, erased, clear, or silent, writing critically and substantively about works for which there would seem to be not only nothing to see but nothing to say. Examined closely, these ostensibly contentless works of art, literature, and music point to a new understanding of media and the limits of the artistic object. Dworkin considers works predicated on blank sheets of paper, from a fictional collection of poems in Jean Cocteau's Orphee to the actual publication of a ream of typing paper as a book of poetry; he compares...

Publikacja Sprawiedliwość według jeży jest uznawana za najbardziej wszechstronną książkę Ronalda Dworkina. Tytuł nawiązuje do greckiego przysłowia Lis wie wiele rzeczy, ale jeż wie jedną, ważną rzecz i rozróżnienia między ludźmi, którzy, podobnie jak lis, mają wiele celów i pomysłów, a tymi, którzy tak jak jeż upraszczają złożony świat i sprowadzają jego wyjaśnienie do jednej naczelnej idei, podstawowej zasady lub koncepcji. Autor argumentuje, że wartość we wszystkich swoich formach jest jedną wielką rzeczą: że to, czym jest prawda, co oznacza życie,...

Always innovative, often provocative, and frequently polarizing, Andrea Dworkin has carved out a unique position as one of the women's movement's most influential figures, from the early days of consciousness-raising to the "post-feminist" present.

THE COMMONS, an ecological thriller by New York Times best-selling author, Susan Dworkin, is a perfectly plausible novel set in the not-so-distant future. The year is 2165.

Biorąc prawa poważnie
ISBN: 9788367020107 / Polski / miękka / 656 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. Ronald Dworkin (1931–2013), amerykański filozof prawa o szerokich zainteresowaniach (w Wydawnictwie Aletheia: Religia bez Boga, Warszawa 2014), klasycznym dziełem Biorąc prawa poważnie (1977) dokonał reorientacji anglosaskiej jurysprudencji z pozytywizmu prawniczego na prawniczy liberalizm. W myśl tego pierwszego o „prawdziwości” wypowiedzi prawnej rozstrzyga wyłącznie jej akceptacja przez odpowiednie instytucje. Inaczej mówiąc, nie treść danego przepisu prawa jest decydująca, lecz tryb ustanowienia go, choćby nawet prawo takie z pozaprawnej, ludzkiej perspektywy było...

Religion Without God
ISBN: 9780674726826 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In his last book, Ronald Dworkin addresses questions that men and women have asked through the ages: What is religion and what is God's place in it? What is death and what is immortality? Based on the 2011 Einstein Lectures, Religion without God is inspired by remarks Einstein made that if religion consists of awe toward mysteries which "manifest themselves in the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, and which our dull faculties can comprehend only in the most primitive forms," then, he, Einstein, was a religious person. Dworkin joins Einstein's sense of cosmic mystery...

Freedom's Law: The Moral Reading of the American Constitution
ISBN: 9780198264705 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 436 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Constitution is America's moral sail, and we must hold to the courage of the conviction that fills it, a conviction that we can all be equal citizens of a moral republic. That is a noble faith, and only optimism can redeem it. So writes Ronald Dworkin in the introduction to this characteristically robust and provocative new book in which Dworkin argues the fidelity to the constitution and to law demands that judges make contemporary judgements backed on political morality, and why it encourages, or ought to encourage, an open display of the true grounds of judgement. The book discusses...

Congo Love Song: African American Culture and the Crisis of the Colonial State
ISBN: 9781469632711 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 472 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In his 1903 hit "Congo Love Song," James Weldon Johnson recounts a sweet if seemingly generic romance between two young Africans. While the song's title may appear consistent with that narrative, it also invokes the site of King Leopold II of Belgium's brutal colonial regime at a time when African Americans were playing a central role in a growing Congo reform movement. In an era when popular vaudeville music frequently trafficked in racist language and imagery, "Congo Love Song" emerges as one example of the many ways that African American activists, intellectuals, and artists called...

Cultural Marxism in Postwar Britain: History, the New Left, and the Origins of Cultural Studies
ISBN: 9780822319092 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this intellectual history of British cultural Marxism, Dennis Dworkin explores one of the most influential bodies of contemporary thought. Tracing its development from beginnings in postwar Britain, through its various transformations in the 1960s and 1970s, to the emergence of British cultural studies at Birmingham, and up to the advent of Thatcherism, Dworkin shows this history to be one of a coherent intellectual tradition, a tradition that represents an implicit and explicit theoretical effort to resolve the crisis of the postwar British Left.
Limited to neither a single discipline... In this intellectual history of British cultural Marxism, Dennis Dworkin explores one of the most influential bodies of contemporary thought. Tracing ...
