Epistemic Injustice: Power and the Ethics of Knowing
ISBN: 9780199570522 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.)

Humour, History and Politics in Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages
ISBN: 9780521811163 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.)

The subject matter is diverse, but a number of themes link them together, notably the use of irony, ridicule and satire as political tools.
