In New World regions like the United States and Australia, the industry is dominated by a handful of very large producers. This is the first book to trace the economic and historical forces that gave rise to very distinctive regional approaches to creating wine. James Simpson shows...

Sciences and the Self in Medieval Poetry: Alan of Lille's Anticlaudianus and John Gower's Confessio Amantis
ISBN: 9780521471817 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study examines two great poems of the later medieval period, the Latin philosophical epic, Alan of Lille's Anticlaudianus (1181-3), and John Gower's English poem, the Confessio Amantis (1390-3). James Simpson locates these works in a cultural context dominated by two kinds of literary humanism, in which the concept of self is centered in the intellect and the imagination respectively, and shows the very different modes of thought that lie behind their conceptions of selfhood and education.

Goethe and Patriarchy: Faust and the Fates of Desire
ISBN: 9781900755047 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book traces the history of a complex sexual fantasy which features recurrently in Goethe's writings from his days as a student in Leipzig to his final years as Europe's most celebrated poet. Simpson shows how the young man's fantasy of innocent sexuality became an increasingly troubled one during the poet's first decade in Weimar. Goethe began to recognize in it a submerged element: the incestuous roots of desire. Triggered by this discovery, Goethe's imagination becomes increasingly analytic and diagnostic, and startlingly prefigures the work of Freud. Yet, paradoxically, Goethe's...

The Red-Green Axis: Refugees, Immigration and the Agenda to Erase America
ISBN: 9781515085188 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 66 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Mr. Simpson's copious documentation and fact-based findings chart the trajectory of the refugee resettlement industry. The Red-Green Axis illuminates the impetus that industry received early on via the United Nation's Human Settlement Policy - a plan to redistribute, not just wealth, but population and land. Mr. Simpson proceeds to show how this plan is being inexorably advanced by today's secretive and unaccountable federal refugee resettlement programs - operations that have brought nearly 2 million refugees from Muslim nations to this country since September 11, 2001.

Spanish Agriculture: The Long Siesta, 1765-1965
ISBN: 9780521525169 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the first major study in English of Spanish agrarian history, James Simpson examines how traditional agriculture responded to population growth and the integration of commodity markets. He argues that decisive changes in farming techniques only occurred at the start of this century; development was then interrupted by the Spanish Civil War and subsequent short-sighted government policies, only resuming in the 1950s. This comprehensive study will be of relevance to historical geography and agrarian history, as well as economic history.
