Scripture and Knowledge: An Essay on Religious Epistemology
ISBN: 9789004101548 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. At the core of Scripture and Knowledge lies the problem of the nature of religious knowledge. The author argues that religion is a particular framework rather than a particular content or defined set of performances. He sees this framework as epistemological, that is, as one that furnishes believers with a conception of knowledge alternative to that of philosophical reasoning. The thesis on the epistemological nature of religion will be developed by the examination of the concept of scripture as a body of authoritative and even infallible texts. The concept of scripture is presented as...

Mediamorphosis: Kafka and the Moving Image
ISBN: 9780231176446 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The idea of a visual manifestation of the work of Franz Kafka was denied by many--first and foremost by Kafka himself, who famously urged his publisher to avoid an image of an insect on the cover of Metamorphosis. Be that as it may, it is unlikely that such a central progenitor of twentieth-century art and thought as Kafka can be fully understood without reference to the revolutionary artistic medium of his century: cinema. Mediamorphosis compiles articles by some of today's leading forces in the scholarship of Kafka as well as film studies to provide a thorough...
