Northrop Frye: Religious Visionary and Architect of the Spiritual World
ISBN: 9780813922997 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 390 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Even the casual reader will notice a strong preoccupation with religion in the work of Northrop Frye. In his latest book, however, the esteemed Frye scholar Robert Denham shows that it played a far greater role than has been assumed--religion was in fact central to practically everything Frye wrote. Denham's focus shifts the emphasis from Anatomy of Criticism, Frye's most famous work, and places it on those works with which Frye began and ended his career--the early Fearful Symmetry and, fifty years later, his two studies of the Bible and The Double Vision. This... Even the casual reader will notice a strong preoccupation with religion in the work of Northrop Frye. In his latest book, however, the esteemed Fry... |

Rethinking Agriculture: Archaeological and Ethnoarchaeological Perspectives
ISBN: 9781598742619 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 476 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Although the need to study agriculture in different parts of the world on its "own terms" has long been recognized and re-affirmed, a tendency persists to evaluate agriculture across the globe using concepts, lines of evidence and methods derived from Eurasian research. However, researchers working in different regions are becoming increasingly aware of fundamental differences in the nature of, and methods employed to study, agriculture and plant exploitation practices in the past. Contributions to this volume rethink agriculture, whether in terms of existing regional chronologies, in terms...

NHS nursing homes have been created, enthusiasts have developed new initiatives, and attempts have been made to improve attitudes. The recent White Paper on Community Care is likely to accelerate the transfer of large numbers of elderly patients from long-stay hospital beds to private-sector accommodation: a move often accompanied by much anxiety about standards of care. Although Health Authorities visit private nursing homes and apply the National Association of Health Authorities'...

ISBN: 9780776623078 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Eminent Northrop Frye scholar Robert D.

Such varied thinkers as Aristotle, Lewis Carroll, Soren Kierkegaard, and Paul Tillich emerge as important figures in defining Frye's cross-disciplinary interests. Eventually, the twelve "Others" of the title come to represent a space occupied by writers whose interests paralleled...

Spirit Children: Illness, Poverty, and Infanticide in Northern Ghana
ISBN: 9780299311209 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In parts of West Africa, some babies and toddlers are considered spirit children--nonhumans sent from the forest to cause misfortune and destroy the family. These are usually deformed or ailing infants, the very young whose births coincide with tragic events, or children who display unusual abilities. In some of these cases, families seek a solution in infanticide. Many others do not. Refusing to generalize or oversimplify, Aaron R. Denham offers an ethnographic study of the spirit child phenomenon in Northern Ghana that considers medical, economic, religious, and political realities. He...
