The Birth of the Modern Mind: Self, Consciousness, and the Invention of the Sonnet
ISBN: 9780195056921 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This revolutionary study presents new facts and an original theory about the origin of the thought and literature that may be considered "modern." Using fifty-one new translations of sonnets from four languages spanning seven centuries, Oppenheimer argues that "modern" thought and literature were born with the invention of the sonnet in 13th-century Italy. In revealing the sonnet as the first lyric form since the fall of the Roman Empire meant not for music or performance but for silent reading, the book demonstrates that the sonnet was the first modern literary form deliberately intended to...

In Times Of Danger
ISBN: 9781933132792 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 98 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Poetry. Paul Oppenheimer's fourth collection of poems presents a love story told almost entirely in brisk, often racy modern sonnets and set against a background of the rural Hudson Valley and New York City--before, during and after the catastrophe of 9/11. "I need a form that I did not invent," he writes, "tuned by ancient anguish to impart/the strain of modern doubt: an instrument/just right, just now, on which to test my heart." His test turns into a struggle that sweeps up history, elusive love itself, preparations for war and the war in Iraq in more than ninety eerily redemptive,...

Evil and the Demonic: A New Theory of Monstrous Behavior
ISBN: 9780814761939 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The notion of evil- does it exist? what forms does it take? -has always fascinated humankind. The evil underlying such atrocities as the Holocaust, Communist China's Tibetan abattoir, and the murderous ethnic cleansing undertaken by the Serbs and Croats seems beyond explanations or analysis. In this powerfully original work, Oppenheimer analyzes the phenomenon of evil in a mental behavior that emerges in particular conditions. Oppenheimer argues that evil contains specific, predictable ingredients. By understanding its nature, we can diagnose its specific manifestations in mass murder,...

The State: Its History and Development Viewed Sociologically
ISBN: 9781560009658 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The State represents the epitome of Franz Oppenheimer's thinking. It integrates political and historical philosophy on the one hand, with economic philosophy on the other. Oppenheimer believed the future progress of nations would be in the direction of liberal socialism. He foresaw a society free from all monopolistic tendencies through unfettered competition. According to Oppenheimer, competition is restrained by a powerful class monopoly, created not through economic differentiation, but through political power. This class monopoly stands between the masses and the land. The...
