Identity Politics in George Lucas' Star Wars
ISBN: 9781476662862 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) George Lucas spoke about the didactic role of cinema and about his own work being presented through the "moral megaphone" of the film industry. A considerable body of scholarship on the six-part Star Wars series argues (unconvincingly) that the franchise promoted neo-conservatism in American culture from the late 1970s onward. But there is much in Lucas' grand space opera to suggest something more ideologically complex is going on. This book challenges the view of the saga as an unambiguously violent text exemplifying reactionary politics, and discusses the films' identity politics with...

ISBN: 9780786474882 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Bringing critical attention to a particular set of science fiction and fantasy films--Larry and Andy Wachowski's The Matrix, George Lucas' Star Wars saga, and Joss Whedon's Avengers--this book utilizes a wide-ranging set of critical tools to illuminate their political ideologies, while also examining any resistant and complicating turns or byways the films may provide. What they all have in common ideologically is that they--or at least the genres they belong to--tend to be regarded as belonging to politically conservative frames of sociocultural reference. With the...

Having the World in View: Essays on Kant, Hegel, and Sellars
ISBN: 9780674725805 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 285 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Building on his much discussed Mind and World, the author argues that the roots of some problems plaguing contemporary philosophy can be found in issues that were first discerned by Kant, and that the best way to get a handle on them is to follow those issues as they are reshaped in the writings of Hegel and Sellars.

Mind and World: With a New Introduction by the Author
ISBN: 9780674576100 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Modern Philosophy finds it difficult to give a satisfactory picture of the place of minds in the world. In Mind and World, based on the 1991 John Locke Lectures, one of the most distinguished philosophers writing today offers his diagnosis of this difficulty and points to a cure. In doing so, he delivers the most complete and ambitious statement to date of his own views, a statement that no one concerned with the future of philosophy can afford to ignore. John McDowell amply illustrates a major problem of modern philosophy--the insidious persistence of dualism--in his...

Hope in Barth's Eschatology: Interrogations and Transformations Beyond Tragedy
ISBN: 9781138728233 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This title was first published in 2000. Hope in Barth's Eschatology presents a critical investigation and survey of Karl Barth's writings, particularly his Church Dogmatics IV.3, in order to locate the character and nature of 'hope' within Barth's eschatology. Arguing that Barth, with his form of hope that refuses to shy away from the dark themes of the 'tragic vision', could be seen to undermine certain tragic sensibilities necessary for a healthy account of hope, John McDowell locates Barth within the context of larger traditions of theological thinking, and influential accounts of...

The Gospel According to Star Wars, 2nd Ed.
ISBN: 9780664262839 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In a new and updated version of this best-selling book, John McDowell explores the many spiritual themes that weave throughout the Star Wars films. From the Force to the dark side, the issues discussed in the films have a moral and spiritual complexity that, if paid attention to, can help us better understand our place in the world and our relation to others and to God. George Lucas, the creator of Star Wars, did not intend for his films to be mere entertainment, McDowell argues. Rather, he hoped his films would be used as a vehicle for moral education. This new version has been... In a new and updated version of this best-selling book, John McDowell explores the many spiritual themes that weave throughout the Star Wars films.... |

Geist und Welt
ISBN: 9783518291283 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 2012 / 221 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Die Kluft zwischen Geist und Welt ist in der Philosophie des 20. Jahrhunderts als Kluft zwischen dem "reibungslosen Rotieren der Begriffe im luftleeren Raum" - ohne Anbindung an die Welt - und dem "Mythos des Gegebenen" - der totalen Abhängigkeit der Begriffe von der Welt - reformuliert worden. John McDowell gelingt in seinem Buch eine Verbindung beider Positionen. Mit Kant erweist er Erfahrungen als immer schon begrifflich strukturiert, mit Aristoteles entfaltet er einen Begriff der "zweiten Natur", der Geist und Welt überbrücken kann.

Poetry and Violence: The Ballad Tradition of Mexico's Costa Chica
ISBN: 9780252075629 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. John H. McDowell provides an in-depth study of the Mexican ballad form known as the corrido, a body of poetry that takes violence as its subject. Through interviews with corrido composers and performers, both male and female, and a generous sampling of ballad texts, McDowell reveals a living vernacular tradition that chronicles local and regional rivalries. A detailed case study with broad social and cultural implications, "Poetry and Violence" is a compelling commentary on violence as human experience and as communicative action.
