Ancient China: A History surveys the East Asian Heartland Region the geographical area that eventually became known as China from the Neolithic period through the Bronze Age, to the early imperial era of Qin and Han, up to the threshold of the medieval period in the third century CE.

The... Ancient China: A History surveys the East Asian Heartland Region the geographical area that eventually became known as China from the Neol... |

ISBN: 9780226410340 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For the past fifty years, America has been extraordinarily busy building prisons. Since 1970 we have tripled the total number of facilities, adding more than 1,200 new prisons to the landscape. This building boom has taken place across the country but is largely concentrated in rural southern towns. In 2007, John M. Eason moved his family to Forrest City, Arkansas, in search of answers to key questions about this trend: Why is America building so many prisons? Why now? And why in rural areas? Eason quickly learned that rural demand for prisons is complicated. Towns like Forrest City...

Luxuriant Gems of the Spring and Autumn
ISBN: 9780231169325 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 704 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Spring and Autumn (Chunqiu) is a chronicle kept by the dukes of the state of Lu from 722 to 481 B.C.E. Luxuriant Gems of the "Spring and Autumn" (Chunqiu fanlu) follows the interpretations of the Gongyang Commentary, whose transmitters sought to explicate the special language of the Spring and Autumn. The work is often ascribed to the Han scholar and court official Dong Zhongshu, but, as this study reveals, the text is in fact a compendium of writings by a variety of authors spanning several generations. It depicts a utopian vision of a...
