Sikhism: An Introduction
ISBN: 9781848853218 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Almost from the moment, some five centuries ago, that their religion was founded in the Punjab by Guru Nanak, Sikhs have enjoyed a distinctive identity. This sense of difference, forged during Sikhism's fierce struggles with the Mughal Empire, is still symbolised by the ""Five Ks"" (""panj kakar,"" in Punjabi), those articles of faith to which all baptised Sikhs subscribe: uncut hair bound in a turban; comb; special undergarment; iron bracelet and dagger (or kirpan) -- the unique marks of the Sikh military fraternity (the word Sikh means ""disciple"" in Punjabi). Yet for all its ongoing... Almost from the moment, some five centuries ago, that their religion was founded in the Punjab by Guru Nanak, Sikhs have enjoyed a distinctive iden... |

Of Sacred and Secular Desire: An Anthology of Lyrical Writings from the Punjab
ISBN: 9781848858831 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The fertile land of the five rivers (Punjab in Persian) has persistently stirred the imagination of its peoples. Its story is the story of invasion. In 326 BCE, Alexander the Great marched through the Hindu Kush, conquered the verdant plains now divided between India and Pakistan, and stamped Greek cultural and linguistic influence on the region. Over the centuries, the lure of the Punjab attracted further waves of outsiders: Scythians, Sassanians, Huns, Afghans, Turks, Mughals, and - closer to our own times - the British. Many savage battles were fought. But at the same time, as different...

Women at the Threshold of Globalisation
ISBN: 9781138662520 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The popular perception of globalisation is rooted in its image of dissolving senses of distance and boundaries. It is so preoccupied with the technology that enables globalisation that little attention is paid to questions of 'how' and 'where' the circuits of globalisation actually get realised. This book attempts a more nuanced view of globalisation by focusing on its less-explored, non-technological dimensions. It examines the transformation of the woman worker - from a rural woman to an urban one, from a dependent daughter, wife and mother to an earning member, and from...

The Feminine Principle in the Sikh Vision of the Transcendent
ISBN: 9780521432870 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This work is an original and critical interpretation of Sikh literature from a feminist perspective. It analyzes the rich feminine imagery and symbolism that pervades the divine-human encounter in this literature, and gives a new authenticity to a relatively neglected religious tradition. Nikky Singh shows convincingly that Sikh Gurus and poets did not want the feminine principle to serve just as a figure of speech or literary device, but was intended, rather, to pervade the whole life of the Sikhs. Her work thus reverses an androcentric approach to Sikhism.
