Byron's Ghosts: The Spectral, the Spiritual and the Supernatural
ISBN: 9781846319709 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Byron is rarely thought of as a spiritual writer. However, as this bold new collection shows, this is the result of an impoverished notion of the 'spiritual' and a reflection of biased priorities in Romantic studies. Reflecting on the poet's claim that 'immaterialism's a serious matter', this interdisciplinary collection of essays, from British and American scholars, calls into question the prevailing 'materialist' consensus, and offers a fresh and theoretically inflected reading of Byron's poetry. Byron's Ghosts is the first book-length examination of spectrality in Byron's work. It is on...

Purification of the soul is a principle that is central to understanding Islamic spirituality but despite this, relatively little has been written explicitly in the Islamic tradition regarding this discrete method of spiritual purification.

Although al-Muhāsibī was well known for his skills in many disciplines, including the Qur'ān, Prophetic narration and scholastic theology, it is his...

Regional Policy in Britain
ISBN: 9781138102170 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Originally published in 1973. At that time, imbalance in the economic performance of regions had become of increasing concern to politicians and economists in many European counties. British policy was of particular interest: not only because the changes of the 1960s made it more comprehensive than in most other countries; but as some sort of regional policy had been in operation for more than thirty years, many lessons could be learned from its evolution. This book provides a comprehensive study of this aspect of British policy. It starts by outlining the nature of the British regional... Originally published in 1973.

Confronting the Present: Towards a Politically Engaged Anthropology
ISBN: 9781859732052 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Anthropologists study other people and worry about it. In the past this took the form of a professional desire to make our politics always somewhere else and to do with persons characterized as in some way different from ourselves. Now distances shrink and old forms of difference melt as global forces give rise to new processes of differentiation and new possibilities for political collectivities. How does this affect the way we might design a politically relevant anthropology? This book examines these concerns in light of the author's shift from the study of rather distant people to...

ISBN: 9781107010260 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 322 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book explores the diverse understandings of the archaeological record in both historical and contemporary perspective, while also serving as a guide to reassessing current views. Gavin Lucas argues that archaeological theory has become both too fragmented and disconnected from the particular nature of archaeological evidence. The book examines three ways of understanding the archaeological record as historical sources, through formation theory, and as material culture then reveals ways to connect these three domains through a reconsideration of archaeological entities and archaeological...
