Race Still Matters: The Reality of African American Lives and the Myth of Postracial Society
ISBN: 9781438462721 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. More than half a century after the civil rights era of the mid-1950s to the late 1960s, American society is often characterized as postracial. In other words, that the country has moved away from prejudice based on skin color and we live in a colorblind society. The reality, however, is the opposite. African Americans continue to face both explicit and latent discriminations in housing, healthcare, education, and every facet of their lives. Recent cases involving law enforcement officers shooting unarmed Black men also attest to the reality: the problem of the twenty-first century is still...

Fifty Shades and Popular Culture
ISBN: 9781476663173 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many fans loved Fifty Shades of Grey. Many others loved to hate it. E.L. James' trilogy of novels, and the film based on them, created a popular culture sensation, revealing much about a society that is both preoccupied with and scandalized by BDSM eroticism. Some critics argued that the franchise glorified kinky sex and normalized sexual abuse. Others praised it for illuminating consensual sexual practices that have long been marginalized in mainstream media. Yet behind their erotic content, James' novels explored not only everyday failures to identify questionable behaviors...

A Study of Hata' and Hatta't in Leviticus 4-5
ISBN: 9783161480553 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 145 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Through a close semantic analysis of the Hebrew terms hata' and hatta't (commonly translated as 'sin') in Leviticus 4-5, this study reveals their lexical meanings, unknown for two millennia both in Judaism and in Christianity. 'Sin' has been commonly understood as referring mainly to a violation of God's commandment pertaining to personal conduct. However the revision Nobuyoshi Kiuchi proposes for the meanings of the terms has significant and far-reaching implications for other major themes such as uncleanness and atonement, meaning human salvation before God. The author also provides a...

ISBN: 9780786475421 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The counterculture period represents a struggle over the legacy and the meaning of the U.S. in a turbulent time and continues to do so today.

The counterculture, however, was not monolithic. Studying the music used in countercultural and counterculture-focused films reveals the intricacy and complexity of the movement. Struggles to establish both collective and individual identities based on...
