To Take Place: Toward Theory in Ritual
ISBN: 9780226763613 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this broad-ranging inquiry into ritual and its relation to place, Jonathan Z. Smith prepares the way for a new approach to the comparative study of religion.
Smith stresses the importance of place in particular, constructed ritual environments to a proper understanding of the ways in which "empty" actions become rituals. He structures his argument around the territories of the Tjilpa aborigines in Australia and two sites in Jerusalem the temple envisioned by Ezekiel and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The first of these locales the focus of one of the more important contemporary... In this broad-ranging inquiry into ritual and its relation to place, Jonathan Z.

Summer In February
ISBN: 9780349107462 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Sir Alfred Munnings, retiring President of the Royal Academy, chooses the 1949 Annual Banquet to launch a savage attack on Modern Art. The effect of his diatribe is doubly shocking, leaving not only his distinguished audience gasping but also many people tuning in to the BBC's live radio broadcast. But as he approaches the end of his assault, the speech suddenly dissolves into incoherence when he stumbles over a name - a name he normally takes such pains to avoid - that takes him back forty years to a special time and a special place.
Summer in February is a disturbing and moving... Sir Alfred Munnings, retiring President of the Royal Academy, chooses the 1949 Annual Banquet to launch a savage attack on Modern Art. The effect of h...

Charles Darwin and Victorian Visual Culture
ISBN: 9780521135795 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 378 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Although The Origin of Species contained just a single visual illustration, Charles Darwin's other books, from his monograph on barnacles in the early 1850s to his volume on earthworms in 1881, were copiously illustrated by well-known artists and engravers. In this 2006 book, Jonathan Smith explains how Darwin managed to illustrate the unillustratable - his theories of natural selection - by manipulating and modifying the visual conventions of natural history, using images to support the claims made in his texts. Moreover, Smith looks outward to analyse the relationships between Darwin's...

Imagining Religion: From Babylon to Jonestown
ISBN: 9780226763606 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. With this influential book of essays, Jonathan Z. Smith has pointed the academic study of religion in a new theoretical direction, one neither theological nor willfully ideological.
Making use of examples as apparently diverse and exotic as the Maori cults in nineteenth-century New Zealand and the events of Jonestown, Smith shows that religion must be construed as conventional, anthropological, historical, and as an exercise of imagination. In his analyses, religion emerges as the product of historically and geographically situated human ingenuity, cognition, and curiosity simply put, as...
