The Venetian Origins of the Commedia dell'Arte
ISBN: 9780415698757 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Venetian Origins of the Commedia dell'Arte is a striking new enquiry into the late-Renaissance stirrings of professional secular comedy in Venice, and their connection to the development of what came to be known as the Commedia dell Arte. The book contends that through a symbiotic collaboration between patrician amateurs and plebeian professionals, innovative forms of comedy developed in the Venice region, fusing high and low culture in a provocative mix that had a truly mass appeal. Rich with anecdotes, diary entries and literary often ribald comic passages, Peter Jordan's central...

Material Culture and Sacred Landscape: The Anthropology of the Siberian Khanty
ISBN: 9780759102774 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This study provides a concrete example of how foraging societies enculturate and transform the natural environment and, through the use of material objects, create sacred spaces and sites. Using ethnographic and ethnohistorical information about the Khanty of Siberia, Jordan shows the shortcomings of both interpretive and materialist anthropological theorizing about hunters and gatherers. He focuses on the rich and complex relationship between the symbolism of the Khanty, their material culture, and the bringing of meaning to physical places. His examination looks at the topic in both...

Chemical Kinetics and Transport
ISBN: 9781461591009 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book began as a program of self-education. While teaching under- graduate physical chemistry, I became progressively more dissatisfied with my approach to chemical kinetics. The solution to my problem was to write a detailed set of lecture notes which covered more material, in greater depth, than could be presented in undergraduate physical chemistry. These notes are the foundation upon which this book is built. My background led me to view chemical kinetics as closely related to transport phenomena. While the relationship of these topics is well known, it is often ignored, except for...

Technology as Human Social Tradition: Cultural Transmission Among Hunter-Gatherers Volume 7
ISBN: 9780520276932 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Technology as Human Social Tradition outlines a novel approach to studying variability and cumulative change in human technology--prominent research themes in both archaeology and anthropology. Peter Jordan argues that human material culture is best understood as an expression of social tradition. In this approach, each artifact stands as an output of a distinctive operational sequence with specific choices made at each stage in its production. Jordan also explores different material culture traditions that are propagated through social learning, factors that promote coherent lineages...
