After Yeats and Joyce: Reading Modern Irish Literature
ISBN: 9780192892317 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Irish literature after Yeats and Joyce, from the 1920s onwards, includes texts that have been the subject of much contention. For a start, how should Irish literature be defined: as works which have been written in Irish or as works written in English by the Irish? It is a period in which ideas of Ireland--of people, community, and nation--have been both created and reflected, and in which conceptions of a distinct Irish identity have been articulated, defended, and challenged; a period which has its origins in a time of intense political turmoil. Corcoran focuses his chapters on various...

The Empire of the Tetrarchs: Imperial Pronouncements and Government Ad 284-324
ISBN: 9780198149842 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The era of Diocletian and Constantine--when the Christian church passed from persecution to imperial favor--saw far-reaching administrative changes that established the structure of government in the Roman Empire for three hundred years. This was a complex period of cooperation and rivalry between co-emperors, the result of Diocletian's experiment in government by four rulers, the tetrarchs. Drawing together material from a wide variety of sources, Corcoran studies the vast range of documents issued by the emperors and their officials, and assesses how effectively the machinery of government...

Helping Skills for Social Work Direct Practice
ISBN: 9780199734832 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Direct practice foundation courses in social work prepare students for every step of the problem-solving process, yet too often emphasize the what and the why of practice at the expense of the how. This practical, easy-to-use, and hands-on guide bridges this gap by illustrating the helping skills that practitioners can actually use to influence people's lives in positive ways. Integrating two major helping models--motivational interviewing and solution-focused therapy--it equips students with the techniques and skills necessary for activating client strengths...

Magic Happens
ISBN: 9780595450992 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Kate Driscoll, a recovering alcoholic and public relations consultant, lives in a Boston suburb with her engineer husband, Bob, and their six year-old daughter, Meghan. When Bob's business goes broke, Kate finds that even her regular A.A. meetings don't help with the money worries, so she turns to a local gym for stress relief. "The gym was cheaper than psychotherapy and seemed to work just as well," she says. Though she describes herself as a "relentless heterosexual," Kate is soon horrified to find herself falling in love with Lou, a female instructor at the gym. Kate's affair with Lou...

For Which It Stands: An Anecdotal Biography of the American Flag
ISBN: 9781416577256 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Our national anthem celebrates it. Patriots wave it. Politicians of all kinds try to wrap themselves in it. It is saluted at baseball games, in parades, and on the most solemn of commemorative occasions. It was salvaged in the first hours following the dreadful events of September 11, and it stands outstretched just above the surface of the moon. It is, of course, the American flag, and there are few symbols as potent. With all the reverence and sacrifice and emotion it inspires, it is easy to lose sight of the fact that it is ultimately just a symbol. Why is it so powerful? Why...

Sea Table
ISBN: 9781848614215 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In Sea Table Kelvin Corcoran brings to all back home. Not that it was ever very far away, but for twenty years or more he has been writing a lot of poetry concerning Greece and may have gained a reputation as a specialist or travel-writing poet, both of which would be wrong. Greece, both place and stories, was a lens onto our present condition and its depths, and through that focus he developed an essentially lyrical (meaning 'unshamedly poetry') field as the basis for a move towards larger forms: monologue and narrative, neither merely transcribed but re-invented every time from a literal...

For the Greek Spring
ISBN: 9781848612761 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For the Greek Spring is a selection of Kelvin Corcoran's poetry about Greece, combining new work with poems from his previous collections. The poet's sustained engagement with Greece is evident at every turn. Corcoran's project is a re-imagining and rethinking of our cultural antecedents, which goes considerably beyond the ready co-option of classical values into the pockets of ambitious politicians and the familiar reaches of the academy. Corcoran has developed an artful ventriloquism in which we're not only uncertain of who may be speaking, but are ultimately persuaded that it doesn't...

Rethinking Human Nature: A Christian Materialist Alternative to the Soul
ISBN: 9780801027802 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What are we as human persons? Are we immaterial souls capable of disembodied existence or merely animals destined to dust? For centuries, scholars have debated this issue, and that debate continues today. But the question of human nature can no longer remain a topic for discussion within the hallowed halls of the academy. End-of-life ethical decisions, human cloning, fetal tissue transplants, and stem cell research all reveal the urgency and the importance of the question for ordinary people. Rethinking Human Nature offers a fascinating look at what it means to be human by...
