James Barr and the Bible
ISBN: 9781498281461 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 428 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Dr. Paul Wells takes the reader deep into the thought of James Barr, the prominent and controversial Oxford professor known for his works on biblical semantics, interpretation, and authority. Barr's criticisms of both modern biblical theology and fundamentalism and his rejection of traditional views of inspiration and authority provide the background for his proposal to view the Bible as a progressing human tradition. In this radical alternative, Barr seeks a way of ""encouraging the Scriptures to speak freely."" Wells contends, however, that Barr's critique is not radical enough to solve a...

Animation and America
ISBN: 9780813531601 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The "cartoon"in the output of the all conquering Disney studio, the anarchic antics of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck in Looney Tunes, and the satiric vision of the Simpsons on television is synonymous with the United States, but the genre rarely is taken seriously. Nevertheless, cartoons are important artistic and cultural achievements, and are an essential ingredient in how America is viewed, both by itself and by others. In Animation and America, Paul Wells looks afresh at this unique art, discussing the distinctiveness of the cartoon form, as well as myriad other types of animation production....

The Animated Bestiary: Animals, Cartoons, and Culture
ISBN: 9780813544151 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Cartoonists and animators have given animals human characteristics for so long that audiences are now accustomed to seeing Bugs Bunny singing opera and Mickey Mouse walking his dog Pluto.
The Animated Bestiary critically evaluates the depiction of animals in cartoons and animation more generally. Paul Wells argues that artists use animals to engage with issues that would be more difficult to address directly because of political, religious, or social taboos. Consequently, and principally through anthropomorphism, animation uses animals to play out a performance of gender, sex and...

The main issues and debates raised by horror, and the approaches and theories that have been applied to horror texts are all featured.

Cross Words: The Biblical Doctrine of the Atonement
ISBN: 9781845501181 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The post-modern society is so focussed on the internal life of the individual that it makes the significance of the cross a difficult concept to grasp. Even Christians are trying to find alternative ways of explaining it - some have abandoned the concept of atonement entirely. Jesus, though, is far more than a victim. When God receives and approves the condemned Jesus he transcends the world of oppressor and victim to create a new humanity, capable of new kinds of relationships. Atonement speaks of a transition from brokenness, alienation and the death of love to a place of...

ISBN: 9781853312038 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 185 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This text discusses the contribution of animation to American history and culture. The author stresses that animation is a broader concept than simply that of cartoon and analyzes both its specific qualities and the way in which these films can reflect and comment upon the times in which they were made. The book does not follow a studio focused approach; instead its discussion of issues is placed in a socio-political context and ranges chronologically from the pioneering works that preceded Disney to the contemporary animation of The Simpsons, Toy Story, Chicken Run, Dinosaur and The Mummy...
