Nobody's Home: Speech, Self, and Place in American Fiction from Hawthorne to DeLillo
ISBN: 9780195080223 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Nobody's Home is a bold view of the American novel from its beginnings to the contemporary scene. Focusing on some of the deepest instincts of American life and culture--individual liberty, freedom of speech, constructing a life--Arnold Weinstein brilliantly sketches the remarkable career of the American self in some of the major works of the past one hundred fifty years.

The author concludes that while free speech doctrine is not in any deep sense as neutral as some of its apologists believe, the...

This anthology presents three new translations representing an aspect of modern Asian drama as yet unavailable to readers in English: the community-based theaters of Taiwan, working in Chinese languages beyond Mandarin. Community theater (shequ juchang) contrasts with the more mainstream theater that has emerged in Taiwan from the 1980s onward--a theater dominated by male playwrights, centered in the capital city of Taipei, and, despite its roots as an experimental "Little Theater Movement," increasingly commercial and professionalized. Community theater, conversely, maintains the more...

Mental Health
ISBN: 9781447316176 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Debates on mental health social work have recently come to an impasse.

Nonetheless the dominant approach to mental health continues to be a medical one, which excludes social workers from new initiatives. In this book, Jeremy Weinstein draws on case studies and his own experiences as a mental health social worker to navigate these conflicting facets of the field. Ultimately, he develops a model of practice that is sensitive to issues of...
