M: The Caravaggio Enigma
ISBN: 9780747548584 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 592 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In his short and violent life, Michelangelo Merisi, known as Carvaggio, changed art forever. In this biography, the author's approach is like that of a detective - piecing together what happened during Carvaggio's short, brilliant, violent and ill-documented life with meticulous research and an instinct about human nature. He evokes early 17th-century Italy and the cities where Carvaggio lived and painted, in all their seething, crude, riotous and dangerous colour.

Ancient Rights and Future Comfort: Bihar, the Bengal Tenancy Act of 1885, and British Rule in India
ISBN: 9780700706259 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 410 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book analyses the character of British rule in nineteenth-century India, by focusing on the underlying ideas and the practical repercussions of agrarian policy. It argues that the great rent law debate and the Bengal Tenancy Act of 1885 helped constitute a revolution in the effective aims of government and in the colonial ability to interfere in India, but that they did so alongside a continuing weakness of understanding and in effective local control. In particular, the book considers the importance of notions of historical rights and economic progress to the false categorisations made...

Sycylijski mrok w.3
ISBN: 9788381915908 / Polski / broszurowa / 2022 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. W ciągu kilku tysiącleci Sycylia wielokrotnie była sceną okrutnych wojen, cierpienia i przemocy. Ta słoneczna wyspa wraz ze swymi plażami, gajami oliwnymi i zabytkami architektury nieraz pogrążała się w głębokim mroku. Peter Robb, zafascynowany tym pełnym sprzeczności regionem, w którym oszałamiające piękno kontrastuje z brutalnością doskonale zorganizowanych struktur przestępczych, oparł się pokusie mitologizacji Sycylii. Mafii w jego wydaniu daleko do romantyzmu, honor i lojalność zostały zastąpione przez bezwzględny terror, korupcję i krętactwo, a granice...
