Once more, O Lord, from Your Enormity incline your Face to shine upon Your...

Written in a provocative, witty, and highly accessible style, this is not only a splendid general introduction to the central questions of consciousness and brain science, but also an answer to some of them.

Post-War Jewish Women's Writing in French
ISBN: 9781906540401 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 257 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. How have French Jewish women reacted to the great traumas of the last century - the Holocaust, North African decolonization and the resulting migration of African Jews to France, the Arab-Israeli crisis and the aftermath of 9/11? Cairns's major new volume identifies the themes of books by French Jewish women from 1945 to the present day, gauging to what extent they are dominated by, informed by, or relatively indifferent to these threatening events. Thirty authors in particular serve as representatives of a great, and greatly diverse, pool: divided not only as Ashkenazim or Sephardim, but by...
