Why Choose the Liberal Arts?
ISBN: 9780268207199 / Angielski / Twarda / 2022 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In a world where the value of a liberal arts education is no longer taken for granted, Mark William Roche lucidly and passionately argues for its essential importance. Drawing on more than thirty years of experience in higher education as a student, faculty member, and administrator, Roche deftly connects the broad theoretical perspective of educators to the practical needs and questions of students and their parents. Roche develops three overlapping arguments for a strong liberal arts education: first, the intrinsic value of learning for its own sake, including exploration of the profound...

Realizing the Distinctive University: Vision and Values, Strategy and Culture
ISBN: 9780268101466 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Realizing the Distinctive University: Vision and Values, Strategy and Culture, Mark Roche changes the terms of the debate about American higher education. A former dean of the College of Arts and Letters at the University of Notre Dame, Roche argues for the importance of an institutional vision, not simply a brand, and while he extols the value of entrepreneurship, he defines it in contrast to the corporate drive toward commercialization and demands for business management models. Using the history of the German university to assess the need for, and implementation of, distinctive...

Why Literature Matters in the 21st Century
ISBN: 9780300212020 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Not just another jeremiad against prevailing isms and orthodoxies, Why Literature Matters in the 21st Century examines literature in its connection to virtue and moral excellence. The author is concerned with literature as the teacher of virtue. The current crisis in the humanities, Mark William Roche argues, may be traced back to the separation of art and morality. ("When the distinction between is and ought is leveled," he writes, "the power of the professions increases.") The arts and humanities concern themselves with the fate and prospects of humankind. Today that fate and those...

Alfred Hitchcock: Filmmaker and Philosopher
ISBN: 9781474221313 / Angielski / Twarda / 2022 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Hitchcock was a masterful director, popular with audiences of all ages and critically acclaimed both during and after his unusually long career. What may have been sensed by many viewers but not fully articulated until now is the extent to which his works subtly engage philosophical themes: What is evil, and how does it shield and reveal itself? Can we know what is inside the mind of another person? What is at stake when one knows the truth but cannot speak of it or cannot persuade others? How is Hitchcock’s loving critique of humanity manifested in his films? Why are Hitchcock’s works so...
