ISBN: 9780691136035 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Today's wine industry is characterized by regional differences not only in the wines themselves but also in the business models by which these wines are produced, marketed, and distributed. In Old World countries such as France, Spain, and Italy, small family vineyards and cooperative wineries abound. 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...

Family Farmers, Land Reforms and Political Action
ISBN: 9783031672835 / Angielski / Miękka / 2025 / 269 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines how European farmers responded to the economic and political challenges created by the First World War and the Great Depression. The difficulties of interwar Europe have been frequently explored, but rarely from the perspective of the agricultural sector, where two-fifths of the population earned their livelihood, mostly as small, family farmers. The traditional literature argues that the landed elites conspired to undermine many of Europe's young democracies after the Great War. This book shows instead that by the early 1920s most had either sold their land or...

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...

Sciences and the Self in Medieval Poetry: Alan of Lille's Anticlaudianus and John Gower's Confessio Amantis
ISBN: 9780521021111 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 336 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.

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.

Drawing on a range of approaches in cultural, gender and literary studies, this book presents Chretien de Troyes s Erec et Enide as a daring and playful exploration of scandal, terror and anxiety in court cultures.
