Islam and Postcolonial Narrative
ISBN: 9780521101158 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. John Erickson examines four major authors from the "third-world"--Assia Djebar, Abdelkebir Khatibi, Tahar ben Jelloun, and Salman Rushdie--all of whom have critiqued the relationship between Islam and the West. Erickson analyzes the narrative strategies they deploy to explore the encounter between Western and Islamic values and reveals their use of the cultural resources of Islam, and their intertextual exchanges with other "third-world" writers. These writers, he argues, valorize expansiveness and indeterminacy in order to represent individuals and groups that live on the margins of...

Catch Rope: The Long Arm of the Cowboy: The History and Evolution of Ranch Roping
ISBN: 9781574411133 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For more than a hundred years, American cowboys have made their living through the skilled use of horse and rope. Whole libraries have been devoted to the horse, but no one, until now, has written a thorough study of the origins and evolution of ranch roping--which differs from arena roping as practiced by rodeo cowboys.
Author/cowboy John Erickson studies ranch roping from every angle: its origins in the Old World; old-time loops and throws; the influence of modern team roping; and the endless debate between those cowboys who rope 'hard and fast' and those who 'dally.' Mixing... For more than a hundred years, American cowboys have made their living through the skilled use of horse and rope. Whole libraries have been devoted to...

The Modern Cowboy: Second Edition
ISBN: 9781574411775 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "The American cowboy is a mythical character who refuses to die," says author John R. Erickson. On the one hand he is a common man: a laborer, a hired hand who works for wages. Yet in his lonely struggle against nature and animal cunning, he becomes larger than life. Who is this cowboy? Where did he come from and where is he today? Erickson addresses these questions based on firsthand observation and experience in Texas and Oklahoma. And in the process of describing and defining the modern working cowboy-his work, his tools and equipment, his horse, his roping technique, his style of dress,...
