Mary Leapor: A Study in Eighteenth-Century Women's Poetry
ISBN: 9780198119883 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Mary Leapor (1722-1746), a Northamptonshire kitchen maid, produced a substantial body of exceptional poetry which was only published after her early death at the age of twenty-four. This is a timely examination of the work of a poet who has remained almost forgotten for 200 years. Leapor is one of many gifted poets, mainly women and laborers, whose work stands outside the traditional canon of eighteenth-century verse. Richard Greene draws on extensive primary research to present substantial new information about Leapor's life. He discusses her protests against the injustices suffered by women...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In Orphan Black, several apparently unconnected women discover that they are exact physical doubles -- they're illegally produced clones, and someone is having them killed. Law enforcement is powerless to help. The clones are forced to form their own Clone Club to defend themselves. Orphan Black raises philosophical issues, as well as ethical and policy questions. What makes a person unique? Should we have a say in whether we're cloned? Is it immoral to generate clones with built-in defects? What does the behavior of the Clone Club tell us about the nature-nurture debate? Is...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The films of Quentin Tarantino are ripe for philosophical speculation, raising compelling questions about justice and ethics, violence and aggression, the nature of causality, and the flow of time.

Edith Sitwell: Avant garde poet, English genius
ISBN: 9781860499685 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) For the better part of forty years, Edith Sitwell's poetry has been neglected by critics. But born into a family of privileged eccentrics, Edith Sitwell was highly regarded by her contemporaries: the great writers and artists of the day who attended her unlikely London literary salon. Her quips and anecdotes were legendary and her works like English Eccentrics confirmed her comic genius, while later she established herself as the quintessential poet of the Blitz.
This masterly biography, meticulously researched and drawing on many previously unseen letters, firmly places Edith Sitwell in... For the better part of forty years, Edith Sitwell's poetry has been neglected by critics. But born into a family of privileged eccentrics, Edith Sitwe...

Twin Peaks and Philosophy: That's Damn Fine Philosophy!
ISBN: 9780812699814 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) 2017 saw the return of the weird and haunting TV show Twin Peaks, with most of the orginal cast. This book finally answers that puzzling question: What is Twin Peaks really about? The show is about madness, sanity, the borderline between them, and the necessity of some madness to make sense of sanity. It is about the imagination run wild, moving from metaphysics to pataphysics - the discipline invented by Alfred Jarry, which probes the assumption that anything can happen and discovers the laws governing events which constitute exceptions to all laws.

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Since 1968's Night of the Living Dead, zombie culture has steadily limped and clawed its way into the center of popular culture.

Zombies, Vampires, and Philosophy drags the theories of famous philosophers like Socrates and Descartes into the territory of the undead, exploring questions like: Why do vampires and vegetarians share a similar worldview? Why is understanding zombies the key to health care reform? And what does "healthy in mind and body" mean for vampires and zombies?...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) What explains the huge popular following for Dexter, currently the most-watched show on cable, which sympathetically depicts a serial killer driven by a cruel compulsion to brutally slay one victim after another?

However his gory appetite is controlled by "Harry's Code," which limits his victims to those who have gotten away with murder, and his job as a blood spatter expert for the Miami police...
