Breeding: A Partial History of the Eighteenth Century
ISBN: 9780231138789 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Enlightenment commitment to reason naturally gave rise to a belief in the perfectibility of man. Influenced by John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, many eighteenth-century writers argued that the proper education and upbringing--breeding--could make any man a member of the cultural elite.

ISBN: 9780521835237 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.
