Melancholy Baby: The Unplanned Consequences of the G.I.S' Arrival in Europe for World War II
ISBN: 9780897896399 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. More than a million American G.I.s were crammed into the UK prior to the invasion of France during World War II. Wherever they landed, the G.I.s took the British population by surprise. Very few people had ever met a real American before. In those days, the U.S. was more remote than Siberia is to the present generation. All anyone knew about Americans had been learned from the silver screen. How could they be resisted? We can only guess at the total number of children that the G.I.s left behind. Figures quoted have varied from 10,000 to 100,000 but there are no official sources on which to...

Icons and Iconoclasm in Japanese Buddhism
ISBN: 9780199945559 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Winner of the Association of Asian Studies's Southeast Conference Book Prize (2014) Does imagery help or hinder the enlightenment experience? Does awakening involve the imagination or not? Can art ever fully represent the realization of buddahood? In this study, Pamela D. Winfield offers a fascinating comparison of two pre-modern Japanese Buddhist masters and their views on the role of imagery in the enlightenment experience. Kukai (774-835) believed that real and imagined forms were indispensable to his new esoteric Mikky? method for "becoming a Buddha in this very body"...

Zen and Material Culture
ISBN: 9780190469290 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The stereotype of Zen Buddhism as a minimalistic or even immaterial meditative tradition persists in the Euro-American cultural imagination.

Nine authors from the cognate fields of...

Sandbars and Sternwheelers: Steam Navigation on the Brazos
ISBN: 9781585440580 / Angielski / Miękka / 1976 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Nature never intended the Brazos River for navigation, but before the coming of the railroads Brazos steamboats were a necessary, if always erratic, form of transport. And there were men to meet the challenge. One captain, heedless of shallows, shoals, snags, and falls, boasted that he could tap a keg and run a boat four miles on the suds. Based on rich archival sources, this authoritative and entertaining book tells of the men and boats that braved the river from the earliest days to the late 1890s.
Steamboat captains and plantation aristocrats, business tycoons and empire builders, mud... Nature never intended the Brazos River for navigation, but before the coming of the railroads Brazos steamboats were a necessary, if always erratic, f...
