ISBN: 9780226438665 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The book of Genesis records the fiery fate of Sodom and Gomorrah--a storm of fire and brimstone was sent from heaven and, for the wickedness of the people, God destroyed the cities "and all the plains, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground." According to many Protestant theologians and commentators, one of the Sodomites' many crimes was homoerotic excess. In Visions of Sodom, H. G. Cocks examines the many different ways in which the story of Sodom's destruction provided a template for understanding homoerotic desire and behaviour in Britain...

The Peripheral Child in Nineteenth Century Literature and Its Criticism
ISBN: 9781137452443 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 215 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Established accounts of the child in nineteenth century literature tend to focus on those who occupy a central position within narratives. The first part of this book is concerned with children who are not as easily recognised or remembered as Alice, Kim or Oliver Twist; the peripheral or neglected children featured in works by Dickens, Bronte, Austen and Rossetti. The return of the overlooked child to these texts acts like 'a return of the repressed', overturning accepted narratives concerning their structure and meaning. In the second part of the book, some of the more sceptical accounts of...

ISBN: 9780195055962 / Angielski / Twarda / 1990 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The role of the middle class in national development has always been of interest to historians concerned with the "peculiarities" of German history. Recently, the professional sector of the German middle class has come under historical scrutiny as part of a re-examination of those features of German society common to Western industrializing nations. This work provides comprehensive coverage of nineteenth- and twentieth-century Germany from the point of view of this new field. The contributors discuss the formation and development of such diverse professions as law, medicine, teaching,...

Passion and Paradox: Intellectuals Confront the National Question
ISBN: 9780691074689 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. From Kosovo to Quebec, Ireland to East Timor, nationalism has been a recurrent topic of intense debate. It has been condemned as a source of hatred and war, yet embraced for stimulating community feeling and collective freedom.

Winner of the 2015 David Easton Prize, awarded by the American Political Science Association (APSA) Global forces are eroding the ability of states to exert sovereign control over their populations, territories, and borders. Yet when dominated subjects across the world dream of freedom, they continue to conceive of it in sovereign terms. Sovereign freedom haunts the imagination of oppressed ethnic minorities, popular masses ruled by foreign powers or homegrown tyrants, indigenous peoples, and individuals chafing under customary or governmental restrictions. On... Winner of the 2015 David Easton Prize, awarded by the American Political Science Association (APSA) Global forces are eroding the abil... |

Psychotherapy in the Third Reich
ISBN: 9781560009047 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The idea for this book sprang from Geoffrey Cocks' curiosity as to what happened in the new, dynamic field of psychotherapy hi Germany with the advent of Hitler. While traditional views merely asserted that the Nazis destroyed the field of psychotherapy in Germany, a viewpoint justifiably based on the testimony of those in the field who had emigrated from Germany to escape Nazi persecution, Cocks learned that there was more to the story. He looked to several interesting shards of evidence that pointed to the possibility that one could reconstruct a history of morally questionable...

Global Overshoot: Contemplating the World's Converging Problems
ISBN: 9781461462644 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 401 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Global Overshoot is a multidisciplinary analysis (including history and pre-history) from an ecological and evolutionary perspective of the contemporary world system. This book compares and critiques attitudes held by people with different world views to the hypothetical prospect of large widespread falls in quality of life. It also draws insights from these two analyses to develop and suggest a philosophy of Ecohumanism to people of good will who want to think constructively about the world's converging problems, i.e. think altruistically and 'think like an evolving ecosystem.'
