Raja Yudhisthira: Kingship in Epic Mahabharata
ISBN: 9781501704987 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Raja Yudhisthira, Kevin McGrath brings his comprehensive literary, ethnographic, and analytical knowledge of the epic Mahabharata to bear on the representation of kingship in the poem. He shows how the preliterate Great Bharata song depicts both archaic and classical models of kingly and premonetary polity and how the king becomes a ruler who is viewed as ritually divine. Based on his precise and empirical close reading of the text, McGrath then addresses the idea of heroic religion in both antiquity and today; for bronze-age heroes still receive great devotional...

In the Kacch: A Memoir of Love and Place
ISBN: 9780786496532 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This personal narrative about life in a remote desert region of Western India tells of how love of place and love of person find their equilibrium in a world far removed from modernity. Yet this small, distant land of kingship and pastoral life is rapidly being eroded by the new India of commerce and industrialization. The author describes in terms how an ancient society is transformed by the culture of consumption where the lyrical beauty of balance, exchange and loyalty are translated into a single market economy.

Eros
ISBN: 9780615725321 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 142 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the genius of poetry and throughout the vicissitudes of human affection Eros is a vital instrument of our life, the irresistible and forceful agency of earthly nature which draws our being into a cycle of time and the year; it is the perpetually circular movement of creativity and destruction, of happiness and sadness, and the primary origin of all worldly metaphor. These lyrics are taken from the four continents of America, Europa, Asia, and Africa, as human love arises from the void and then--having become aware of its incompleteness and having endeavoured to...

Heroic Kṛṣṇa: Friendship in Epic Mahābhārata
ISBN: 9780674073333 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "Heroic Krsna" is a portrait of a pre-Hindu and pre-classical figure of a superhuman hero who in time became the divinity Krsna, an incarnation of Visnu. This is a picture, drawn from the epic Mah bh rata, of an archaic warrior who excelled as a charioteer; in fact this is the best depiction that we presently possess in any epic "corpus" of a charioteer type. Krsna is also described in his role of moral instructor, as poet and ambassador, and in the office of dual kingship with the "dharmaraja" Yudhisthira. There is no other representation of a complex friendship in the poem apart from what...

Spider webs, egg whites, hair follicles, and skeletal muscles are all largely protein.
