He won support through his practical schemes as outlined in his writings and by his persuasive oratory on the platform rather than in the...

Margaret Atwood: The Open Eye
ISBN: 9780776606132 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 492 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Margaret Atwood enjoys a unique prominence in Canadian letters. With over thirty books to her credit, in genres ranging from children's writing to dystopic novels, she is as creatively diverse as she is internationally acclaimed. Her success, however, has been double-edged: the very popularity that makes her such a prominent figure in the literary world also renders her vulnerable to claims of being a "sell-out," as she relates in her Empson lectures. The Open Eye negotiates the space between these positions, acknowledging Atwood's remarkable achievement while considering how it... Margaret Atwood enjoys a unique prominence in Canadian letters.

Great British Family Names and Their History: What's in a Name?
ISBN: 9781526751553 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For better or worse, what we are is often determined by our family; the events that occurred many years before we were born, and the choices that were made by our forebears are our inheritance - we are the inexorable product of family history. So it is with nations. The history of Great Britain has been largely defined by powerful and influential families, many of whose names have come down to us from Celtic, Danish, Saxon or Norman ancestors. Their family names fill the pages of our history books; they are indelibly written into the events which we learned about at school. Iconic family...

Parent Advocacy: A Private Role in a Public Institution
ISBN: 9783639034080 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Parental involvement in schools has been contested for decades. Although it is clear that parents have a responsibility to care for and nurture their children, the legislated role of schools to educate children leaves somewhat ambiguous the role of parents. Using Hannah Arendt's notions of public and private and the emergence of a social sphere this conceptual research examines the complex relationship of parents to schools. This study illustrates how parents can play an important role in the public school education of their children. The struggle for control in education has its roots in the...
