The Bicycle -- Towards a Global History
ISBN: 9781137499509 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The modern bicycle as we know it today was developed in England in the 1880s. A decade later, cycling was already a popular spectator sport and a recreational fashion across western society. Women's rights, class mobility and a modern spirit of individualism helped fuel this bicycle boom. In China, on the other hand, the bicycle's ubiquity reflected state-controlled social uniformity. Briefly, it became a symbol of resistance in Tiananmen Square in the 1980s, but crushed by tanks it later turned into a downward marker of class with millions scrapped. In the 21st century, the bicycle is...

The African American Roots of Modernism: From Reconstruction to the Harlem Renaissance
ISBN: 9780807871850 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The period between 1880 and 1918, at the end of which Jim Crow was firmly established and the Great Migration of African Americans was well under way, was not the nadir for black culture, James Smethurst reveals, but instead a time of profound response from African American intellectuals. The African American Roots of Modernism explores how the Jim Crow system triggered significant artistic and intellectual responses from African American writers, deeply marking the beginnings of literary modernism and, ultimately, notions of American modernity.
In identifying the Jim Crow... The period between 1880 and 1918, at the end of which Jim Crow was firmly established and the Great Migration of African Americans was well under way,...

ISBN: 9781137030351 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 243 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Taking as a starting point the parallel occurrence of Cook's Pacific voyages, the development of natural history, scenic tourism in Britain, and romantic travel in Europe, this book argues that the effect of these practices was the production of nature as an abstract space and that the genre of travel writing had a central role in reproducing it.
