Narrative Space and Time: Representing Impossible Topologies in Literature
ISBN: 9780415705776 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Space is a central topic in cultural and narrative theory today, although in most cases theory assumes Newtonian absolute space. However, the idea of a universal homogeneous space is now obsolete. Black holes, multiple dimensions, quantum entanglement, and spatio-temporal distortions of relativity have passed into culture at large. This book examines whether narrative can be used to represent these "impossible" spaces. Impossible topologies abound in ancient mythologies, from the Australian Aborigines "dream-time" to the multiple-layer universe of the Sumerians. More recently, from...

The Chinese Economy: Recent Trends and Policy Issues
ISBN: 9783642286377 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book takes readers on a unique journey across some of the most debated implications of the rise of the Chinese economy on the global scene. From the analysis, suggestions emerge on how to improve statistical tools to measure performance and to obtain more precise macroeconomic forecasts. Moreover, it confirms the suspicion that a governance model of firms that does not sufficiently encourage market competition may have significant costs in terms of efficiency for the Chinese production system. The analysis of demographic factors and of household savings gives further...

Postmodern Science Fiction and Temporal Imagination
ISBN: 9781441123954 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Are we living in a post-temporal age? Has history come to an end? This book argues against the widespread perception of postmodern narrativity as atemporal and ahistorical, claiming that postmodernity is characterized by an explosion of heterogeneous narrative "timeshapes" or chronotopes. Chronological linearity is being challenged by quantum physics that implies temporal simultaneity; by evolutionary theory that charts multiple time-lines; and by religious and political millenarianism that espouses an apocalyptic finitude of both time and space. While science, religion, and... Are we living in a post-temporal age? Has history come to an end? This book argues against the widespread perception of postmodern narrativity as a... |

The Pilgrim Soul: Being a Russian in Israel
ISBN: 9781604975987 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. One of the most astounding aftershocks of the collapse of the Soviet Union was the massive immigration of Russian Jews to Israel. Today, Russian speakers constitute one-sixth of Israel's total population. No other country in the world has absorbed such a prodigious number of immigrants in such a short period. The implications of this phenomenon are immense both locally (given the geopolitical situation in the Middle East) and globally (as multicultural and multiethnic states become the rule rather than the exception). For a growing number of immigrants worldwide, the experience of living...
