A Life of Ernest Starling
ISBN: 9780195177800 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Ernest Starling (1866-1927) was pre-eminent in the golden age of British Physiology. His name is usually associated with his "Law of the Heart," but his discovery of secretin (the first hormone whose mode of action was explained) and his work on capillaries were more important contributions. He coined the word 'hormone' one hundred years ago. His analysis of capillary function demonstrated that equal and opposite forces move across the capillary wall--an outward (hydrostatic) force and an inward (osmotic) force derived from plasma proteins. Starling's contributions include:...

Hidden Meanings and Picture-form Language in the Writings of G.I. Gurdjieff: (Excavations of the Buried Dog)
ISBN: 9781434306593 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 404 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Recalling Gurdjieff's intent for his first series: "To destroy, mercilessly, without any compromises whatsoever, in the mentation and feelings of the reader, the beliefs and views, by centuries rooted in him, about everything existing in the world." For years Gurdjieff's followers have been working, reading, struggling to understand his writing. We are like miners chipping away at the rocks of his books, seeking the dog he so carefully buried. That "dog" has been waiting patiently to be disinterred, but we have been digging with the wrong tools. A few new "shovels" and "picks" which may be...

Morals and Villas in Seneca's Letters: Places to Dwell
ISBN: 9780521829441 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. John Henderson focuses on three key Letters visiting three Roman villas, and reveals their meaning as designs for contrasting lives. Seneca brings the philosophical epistle to Latin literature, creating models for moralizing which feature self-criticism, parody, and animated revision of myth. The Stoic moralist wrests writing away from Greek gurus and texts, and recasts it into critical thinking in Latin terms, within a Roman context. The Letters embody critical thinking on metaphor and translation, self-transformation and cultural tradition.

Classics: A Very Short Introduction
ISBN: 9780192853851 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. We are all classicists--we come into touch with the classics on a daily basis: in our culture, politics, medicine, architecture, language, and literature. What are the true roots of these influences, however, and how do our interpretations of these aspects of the classics differ from their original reality? This introduction to the classics begins with a visit to the British Museum to view the frieze which once decorated the Apollo Temple a Bassae. Through these sculptures John Henderson and Mary Beard prompt us to consider the significance of the study of Classics as a means of...

Oxford Reds: Classic Commentaries on Latin Classics
ISBN: 9780715635162 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book explores the series of classic commentaries on the most important Latin texts published by Oxford University Press between 1933 and 1976, which remain extremely influential textbooks for teaching school and university students wherever Classics is taught to English-speakers: in verse, R.G.

Fighting for Rome: Poets and Caesars, History and Civil War
ISBN: 9780521028660 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. For the Roman writers "Fighting for Rome" became not the expansive imperialism of the all-conquering Republic, but a collapse into horror and un-Roman autocracy brought about by the Caesars' fighting for control of Rome. The essays in this volume range across the literary forms--history and satire, lyric and epic--working closely with particular texts. Conceived over the decade after the Cold War, they have been updated and rewritten to make a book that brings the ancient texts before the reader in a strikingly immediate way.
