ISBN: 9780520262843 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Dacha Idylls is a lively account of dacha life and how Russians experience this deeply rooted tradition of the summer cottage amid the changing cultural, economic, and political landscape of postsocialist Russia. Simultaneously beloved and reviled, dachas wield a power that makes owning and caring for them an essential part of life. In this book, Melissa L. Caldwell captures the dacha's abiding traditions and demonstrates why Russians insist that these dwellings are key to understanding Russian life.

Skepticism and Belief in Early Modern England: The Reformation of Moral Value
ISBN: 9781472444646 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The central thesis of this book is that skepticism was instrumental to the defense of orthodox religion and the development of the identity of the Church of England. Examining the presence of skepticism in non-fiction prose literature at four transitional moments in English Protestant history during which orthodoxy was challenged and revised, Melissa Caldwell argues that a skeptical mode of thinking is embedded in the literary and rhetorical choices made by English writers who straddle the project of reform and the maintenance of orthodoxy after the Reformation in England. Far from being a...

ISBN: 9780520285842 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What does it mean to be a compassionate, caring person in Russia, which has become a country of stark income inequalities and political restrictions? How might ethics and practices of kindness constitute a mode of civic participation in which "doing good"--helping, caring for, and loving one another in a world marked by many problems and few easy solutions--is a necessary part of being an active citizen? Living Faithfully in an Unjust World explores how, following the retreat of the Russian state from social welfare services, Russians' efforts to "do the right thing" for their...

Food & Everyday Life in the Postsocialist World
ISBN: 9780253221391 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Across the Soviet Union and eastern Europe during the socialist period, food emerged as a symbol of both the successes and failures of socialist ideals of progress, equality, and modernity. By the late 1980s, the arrival of McDonald s behind the Iron Curtain epitomized the changes that swept across the socialist world. Not quite two decades later, the effects of these arrivals were evident in the spread of foreign food corporations and their integration into local communities. This book explores the role played by food as commodity, symbol, and sustenance in the transformation of life in...

Not by Bread Alone: Social Support in the New Russia
ISBN: 9780520238763 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. What Muscovites get in a soup kitchen run by the Christian Church of Moscow is something far more subtle and complex--if no less necessary and nourishing--than the food that feeds their hunger. In Not by Bread Alone, the first full-length ethnographic study of poverty and social welfare in the postsocialist world, Melissa L. Caldwell focuses on the everyday operations and civil transactions at CCM soup kitchens to reveal the new realities, the enduring features, and the intriguing subtext of social support in Russia today. In an international food aid community, Caldwell explores...
