The Epic Trickster in American Literature: From Sunjata to So(u)L
ISBN: 9781138107854 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Just as Africa and the West have traditionally fit into binaries of Darkness/Enlightenment, Savage/Modern, Ugly/Beautiful, and Ritual/Art, among others, much of Western cultural production rests upon the archetypal binary of Trickster/Epic, with trickster aesthetics and commensurate cultural forms characterizing Africa. Challenging this binary and the exceptionalism that underlies anti-hegemonic efforts even today, this book begins with the scholarly foundations that mapped out African trickster continuities in the United States and excavated the aesthetics of traditional African epic...

The Guernica Bull: Studies in the Classical Tradition in the Twentieth Century
ISBN: 9780820332666 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In "The Guernica Bull," Harry C. Rutledge examines the use of classical motifs in twentieth-century literature, art, and drama. From the echoes of Plato's dialogues at the heart of Thomas Mann's "Death in Venice" to the retelling of the story of Harmodius and Aristogiton--a story with grim parallels to Nazi Germany--in Marguerite Yourcenar's "Lena," these modern works are a testament to both the creativity of modern artists and the versatility and timelessness of classical themes. Rutledge finds the ideal meshing of classical images and modern sensibility in Pablo Picasso's "Guernica."... In "The Guernica Bull," Harry C.

Arbitration and the Constitution
ISBN: 9781107435902 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Arbitration has become an increasingly important mechanism for dispute resolution, both in the domestic and international setting. Despite its importance as a form of state-sanctioned dispute resolution, it has largely remained outside the spotlight of constitutional law. This landmark work represents one of the first attempts to synthesize the fields of arbitration law and constitutional law. Drawing on the author's extensive experience as a scholar in arbitration law who has lectured and studied around the world, the book offers unique insights into how arbitration law implicates issues...

ISBN: 9781438449326 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Habitations of the Veil, Rebecka Rutledge Fisher uses theory implicit in W. E. B. Du Bois's use of metaphor to draw out and analyze what she sees as a long tradition of philosophical metaphor in African American literature. She demonstrates how Olaudah Equiano, Frances Ellen Watkins Harper, Zora Neale Hurston, Richard Wright, and Ralph Ellison each use metaphors to develop a critical discourse capable of overcoming the limits of narrative language to convey their lived experiences. Fisher's philosophical investigations open these texts to consideration on ontological and...

With Dawn Heinecken The mute gestures of advertising images are frozen for posterity by photographers and illustrators, gestures that, for better or worse, perpetuate a certain aesthetic and eventually become emblematic of a period. The images of today display the values of a society that has more interest in the body than the mind. They are technoenhanced labyrinths of unattainable appearances that leave women and men feeling horrified, estranged, and restricted by unrealistic, silent mandates. Measuring Up looks...

Leadership is one of the most diverse topics discussed in the corporate arena as well as ministry. We often describe the church as a business. If this is true, we really need to redefine the roots of our existence. As a body, what do we really believe? What makes a good leader? What do we need to do to nurture this in corporate America as well as the church? The meaning of leadership is broad but narrow enough to provide specific qualities. This book will explore the beliefs of several prominent leadership theories while providing meaning and understanding of various leadership styles. One of...
