Conrad, Language, and Narrative
ISBN: 9780521120845 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this re-evaluation of the writings of Joseph Conrad, Michael Greaney places language and narrative at the heart of his literary achievement. As a trilingual Polish expatriate, Conrad brought a formidable linguistic self-consciousness to the English novel and tensions between speech and writing are the defining obsessions of his career. Greaney examines a wide range of Conrad's work, combining recent critical approaches to language in post-structuralism with an impressive command of linguistic theory.

Easter Witness: From Broken Dream to a New Vision for Ireland
ISBN: 9780944997123 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. There are many excellent and in-depth books about the Easter Rising that began on Monday, April 24, 1916 and ended less than a week later, to all appearances a blood-drenched fiasco. EASTER WITNESS, however, takes the story further, giving the political and economic context of the Rising and, more important, presenting a unifying and empowering new vision for the future of Ireland and the world. EASTER WITNESS relies heavily on contemporary newspaper reports, Statements By Witnesses collected in the 1940s and 1950s by the Irish Bureau of Military History (Buro Staire Mileata) 1913-21,...

The Restoration of Property: A Reexamination of a Natural Right
ISBN: 9780944997079 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "If only because power naturally and necessarily follows property, concentrated ownership of the means of production is the most serious political and economic problem in the world today. People as diverse as Karl Marx and Pope John Paul II have viewed this ownership gap as a root cause of fundamental social problems. It is, as well, a result of flawed and unjust laws and institutions. These, in turn, create flagrant inequalities of economic opportunity and personal freedom. A social order that systematically concentrates economic power must therefore be viewed as an explicit offense against...

In Defense of Human Dignity

A compilation of articles previously appearing in Social Justice Review, based on the Four Pillars of an Economically Just Society: 1) Limited economic role for the State, 2) Free and open markets, 3) Restoration of the rights of private property, and 4) Widespread direct ownership of the means of production. The Just Third Way is a holistic program developed by the interfaith Center for Economic and Social Justice ("CESJ") in Arlington, Virginia, USA, in response to the growing disparities of wealth and the failure of today's institutions to meet people's wants and needs in a manner...

Initiation
ISBN: 9781602100091 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The fifth of Robert Hugh Benson's "mainstream" novels, first published in 1914, "Initiation" relates a man's redemption, or initiation into his full humanity, through pain. The novel explores the different types of pain with which people are afflicted - spiritual, psychological, and physical - none of it deserved, yet all of it leading to greater self-awareness and understanding of what it means to be human. Despite the grimness of the theme, the novel is both entertaining and profound. This edition features a foreword by Benson scholar Michael D. Greaney.

A Winnowing
ISBN: 9781602100053 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Mixing such seemingly incongruous elements as social satire, near-slapstick, and obsession with death, "A Winnowing," first published in 1910, is the first of Robert Hugh Benson's "mainstream novels." An undeservedly overlooked work today, the novel flays Edwardian society in terms that bring to mind the comedy of P. G. Wodehouse, and the black humor of Evelyn Waugh. The influence of "A Winnowing" is evident in Evelyn Waugh's take on the funeral industry in Southern California ("The Loved One: An Anglo-American Tragedy"). This edition features a foreword by Benson scholar Michael D. Greaney.

Loneliness?
ISBN: 9781602100107 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The sixth and final of Robert Hugh Benson's "mainstream" novels, "Loneliness?" examines the life of a woman who sacrifices everything to be accepted by people who can see her only in terms of her singing ability and the roles she plays on the stage. She is abandoned by them when she can no longer fit into their preconceived ideas. Published posthumously in 1915, "Loneliness?" may be Benson's least known, yet one of his most insightful - and entertaining - novels. This edition features a foreword by Benson scholar Michael D. Greaney.

Freedom Under God
ISBN: 9780944997116 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 1940, on the eve of the United States entry into World War II, the late Fulton J. Sheen (1895-1979) published FREEDOM UNDER GOD. This new, annotated "Just Third Way Edition" of a neglected classic includes an in-depth foreword, as well as a bibliography and index not included in the original. While FREEDOM UNDER GOD addresses the loss of true freedom throughout the world, Sheen's special concern was freedom of religion. This is under increasing attack today. Individual life as well as marriage and the family are also in grave danger as the State continues to expand its power to fill the...

So Much Generosity
ISBN: 9781602100022 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The late Dr. Ralph McInerny, Professor of Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame du Lac, once commented that some Catholic novels are so good, theyre bad. He meant that the heroes are so virtuous that you simply cant believe them. Worse, the novels try so hard to be "Catholic" that they fail to be catholic, that is, universal, or even any sort of realistic commentary on the human condition.
Worst of all are probably the novels that try to imitate the authors profiled in this appreciation of the fiction of Nicholas Cardinal Wiseman (1802-1865), John Henry Cardinal Newman (1801-1890),...

The Political Animal: Economic Justice and the Sovereignty of the Human Person
ISBN: 9780944997062 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "Often thought in the modern world to be completely unrelated, even antithetical to the restoration of a just society, the restoration of morality and widespread direct ownership of the means of production go hand-in-hand, as moral authorities through the ages have recognized. The problems facing modern society cannot be solved and the natural moral law restored except through the action of ordinary people organizing for the common good. Further, ordinary people will never have the power to organize effectively until and unless they have direct ownership of a meaningful stake of...

Supporting Life: The Case for a Pro-Life Economic Agenda
ISBN: 9780944997055 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Starting from a pro-life perspective, SUPPORTING LIFE looks unflinchingly at the moral, constitutional and tactical implications of "choice" and at the economic pressures for abortion. It then offers a principled, commonsense and achievable political strategy and economic solution that would secure for every man, woman and child a new right of citizenship: the equal opportunity to acquire and own capital assets that would provide for that citizen a direct and independent source of income. SUPPORTING LIFE should be read by all leaders, policymakers and citizens who seek a life-promoting...

A Plea for Peasant Proprietors
ISBN: 9780944997109 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. During the Great Famine in Ireland (1846-1852), William T. Thornton (1813-1880), an English economist, proposed that unused land be purchased by the government and sold on credit to families that would put it into production. In this way funds spent on famine relief would be turned from an expenditure into an investment, jobs would be created, and the benefits of widespread capital ownership would accrue to individuals, families and the nation. Although never adopted, later thinkers, offering a principled, growth-oriented approach for the 21st Century, refined Thornton's vision. As the global...
