This is not because men are more intelligent; not because of their superior sense of logic; and not because of their more highly developed inventive capabilities. It is solely due to their greater physical strength."

Power and Imagination: Studies in Politics and Literature
ISBN: 9781433101250 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Classical and modern literature often reveal more about the organized world s forms of power and authority structures than do works of political philosophy. What are the origins of political consciousness? How does our understanding of political power and its exercise originate in literature? Why do the early manifestations of political and religious tolerance appear in utopian literature, rather than in philosophical treatises?

Modernism and Its Discontents: Philosophical Problems of Twentieth-Century Literary Theory
ISBN: 9780820427409 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Literary theory of the twentieth century in the Anglo-American tradition forms a coherent whole, dividing into discrete clusters. This theory is riddled with purely logical problems inherent in its enterprise, resulting from the fact that Modernist theory develops as an offshoot of Romanticism. Such fundamental flaws, or discontents, afflict all Modernist theory, from Russian Formalism through Structuralism and Deconstruction. The problems of Modernist theory cannot be solved; at most we can resolve to take theory in a new direction.

Despite this, most bereaved people do return to living productive and meaningful lives, understanding that such pain is unavoidable and part of the human experience. However, in some cases the negative feelings and emotions do not subside over time and what psychologists refer to as "complicated grief" takes hold. This is a serious and debilitating condition that can take a toll on emotional and physical well-being. The...
