George Brent - Ireland's Gift to Hollywood and Its Leading Ladies (Hardback)
ISBN: 9781593937645 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 434 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Bette Davis answered, "George Brent" whenever asked to name her favorite co-star. Her longtime crush on the actor (they teamed in eleven films) culminated in an off-screen affair while filming Dark Victory (1939) for which she won an Oscar nomination and Brent gave what many consider his "finest performance." Hollywoods top stars clamored to play opposite Brent, who infused his easy-going warmth into such blockbuster films as 42nd Street (1933). Before long, Garbo demanded that MGM cast him opposite her in The Painted Veil (1934). Brent was perfect foil for cinemas leading ladies: Ruth...

Rethinking Religion: Finding a Place for Religion in a Modern, Tolerant, Progressive, Peaceful and Science-affirming World
ISBN: 9780692224502 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Does religion have something positive to offer the 21st century (and beyond)? Or is it a vestige of the Iron Age that ought to be contained in museums, preferably under bell jars? More critically, is it even possible to be religious and also be a rational and entirely modern participant in 21st-century civilization? Is it possible to live a devotional, religious life today without denying science or otherwise being assimilated by some religious-authoritarian Borg? Rethinking Religion argues that today's clown-shoes religiosity is an infantile caricature of religion that the great theologians,...

The Canadian Football League: The Phoenix of Professional Sports Leagues (Revised Edition)
ISBN: 9781411658608 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 362 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. North American football was born in Canada in the 1860s. For decades, though, the growth of Canadian football was slow to change from its rugby traditions. In recent decades, it has been in the shadow of its largest competitor, the National Football League. Although hockey is held up as Canada's number one sport, the CFL has enjoyed as rich and storied a tradition in Canadian sports history. This book is not the usual general history detailing on-field accomplishments, Grey Cup winners etc. Instead, it combines an historical look through 2003 with discussion of continuous themes which have...

Of Memory and the Misplaced: Irish Immigrant Life Writing in the United States
ISBN: 9780253067876 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What can the life writing of post-famine Irish immigrants tell us about Irish diasporic memory? Of Memory and the Misplaced considers the endurance and nature of Irish American memory across the twentieth century. Guided by 30 memoirs written between 1900 and 1970, Sarah O'Brien shows the prevalence of intimate and taboo themes in ordinary immigrants' writing, such as domestic violence, same-sex love, and famine-induced trauma. Importantly, Of Memory and the Misplaced critiques the role of the Irish landscape as a site of memory and shows how the interiority of the domestic world has...

Masculinities and Manhood in Contemporary Irish Drama: Acting the Man
ISBN: 9783030840778 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book charts the journey, in terms of both stasis and change, that masculinities and manhood have made in Irish drama, and by extension in the broader culture and society, from the 1960s to the present. Examining a diverse corpus of drama and theatre events, both mainstream and on the fringe, this study critically elaborates a seismic shift in Irish masculinities. This book argues, then, that Irish manhood has shifted from embodying and enacting post-colonial concerns of nationalism and national identity, to performing models of masculinity that are driven and moulded by the political and...
