The manner in which Kathryn Johnston died so tragically at the hands of Atlanta narcotics police on the evening of November 21, 2006, anticipates and informs a number of very contemporary--and extremely volatile--issues that have become closely associated with the name of Ferguson, Missouri.

Winckelmann and the Vatican's First Profane Museum
ISBN: 9780230110694 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Using the palace records from the Vatican's Secret Archives, Ruprecht demonstrates that the Vatican museum was the brainchild of J.J. Winckelmann, the so-called father of Art History. Tracing both Winckelmann's secret involvement in the emergence of modern art museums and modern art history and their emergence from within religious institutions, the author offers a new perspective on the relationship of religion and art in the modern world.

Reach without Grasping: Anne Carson's Classical Desires
ISBN: 9781793637666 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Anne Carson (b. June 21, 1950, in Toronto, Canada) is one of the most versatile of contemporary classicists, poets and translators in the English language. In this book, Ruprecht explores the role played by generic transgressions on the one hand, and by embodied spirituality on the other, throughout Carson's ambitious literary career. Where others see classical dichotomies (soul versus body, Classical versus Christian), Carson sees connection. Like Nietzsche before her, Carson decries the image of the Classics as merely bookish, and classicists as disembodied intellects. She has brought...

Anne Carson's Classical Desires: Reach Without Grasp
ISBN: 9781350039704 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Anne Carson is one of the most versatile of those living writers in the English language who have drawn deeply from the well of Classical waters. This book explores the role of generic transgressions and of antique spirituality throughout Carson's long career of re-staging the classical literary legacy in creative contemporary terms. It examines the way in which Carson deliberately plays with genre - and with the expectations normally associated with certain genres - and shows that it is the fluidity of genre expectations that she adapts most creatively from the classical tradition. Trained...
