Inventing a Christian America: The Myth of the Religious Founding
ISBN: 9780190675226 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Among the most enduring themes in American history is the idea that the United States was founded as a Christian nation. A pervasive narrative in everything from school textbooks to political commentary, it is central to the way in which many Americans perceive the historical legacy of their nation. Yet, as Steven K. Green shows in this illuminating new book, it is little more than a myth.
In Inventing a Christian America, Green, a leading historian of religion and politics, explores the historical record that is purported to support the popular belief in America's religious...

Forgotten Stars: Rediscovering Manilius' Astronomica
ISBN: 9780199586462 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Astronomica of Manilius is a poem in five books, at least partly written under the Emperor Augustus, which purports to teach the reader the art of astrology and the means by which an accurate horoscope may be cast. It is, therefore, a text from the classical age of Roman literature which deals with a topic to whose enduring popular interest any daily Western newspaper will testify. And yet, despite some notable modern exceptions, the infamously harsh verdict of Manilius' most ardent modern critic, A. E. Housman, continues to cast an imposing shadow on the poem. Forgotten Stars seeks to...

Disclosure and Discretion in Roman Astrology: Manilius and His Augustan Contemporaries
ISBN: 9780199646807 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In light of modern scepticism towards the practice, it is easy to overlook just how important a role astrology played in the career of Rome's first Emperor, Augustus. Augustus' enthusiasm for employing astrological predictions and symbols to cement his own position of power was matched by an equally forceful desire to restrict their use by his political rivals. Astrology in Rome was, then, to use Tacitus' neat formulation, both "forbidden and maintained" (Tacitus, Histories, 1.22).
This volume is the first to take seriously this imperial complex as a key to understanding the diverse ways... In light of modern scepticism towards the practice, it is easy to overlook just how important a role astrology played in the career of Rome's first Em...

ISBN: 9781602581609 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 1200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Ovid, Fasti 1: A Commentary
ISBN: 9789004139855 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 382 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This commentary provides a detailed analysis of the first book of Ovid's Fasti, a complex poem which takes as its central framework the Roman calendar in the late Augustan/early Tiberian period and purports to deal with its religious festivals and their origins. Book 1 covers the month of January, and has proven to be particularly challenging to readers in light of the apparent revision/reworking of the text undertaken by the poet whilst in exile. This commentary - the most extensive yet on any single book of the poem - locates the text of Book 1 firmly in its literary, historical and...

Post-Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorders
ISBN: 9783642422850 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders are a group of conditions that straddle the borders between infection and malignancy. They were very rare prior to the mid-1980s but now can be expected to develop in 1-10% of transplant recipients. While some cases are reversible with reduction in immunosuppression, more severe forms are indistinguishable from frank lymphomas. This book sets out to cover in depth every aspect of these disorders, including both basic science and clinical topics. The epidemiology is reviewed, and careful attention is paid to the role of Epstein-Barr virus in their...
