The Duel in European History: Honour and the Reign of Aristocracy
ISBN: 9781783608386 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For centuries, the duel played an integral role in the preservation of the aristocratic order in Europe, despite countless attempts by both church and state to ban the practice. The drama of the duel has been romanticized in countless works of literature, and it has been an enduring fixture in films and theater reflecting the period. But how did the duel come to prominence in the first place as the form by which men staked their honor? And how did it develop its allure as a cultural and artistic device? Renowned historian Victor Kiernan explores these questions and more in The Duel in...

ISBN: 9781783606719 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. With Shakespeare: Poet and Citizen, Kiernan displays how profoundly sensitive Shakespeare was to the massive social and political upheavals of his age.

Shakespeare witnessed and capitalized on these events, using major social changes, such as rebellious new female roles, prominently in his comedies, which feature identity confusion, gender bending, and cross-dressing. His historical plays, similarly, reflect the demise of feudal...

The Lords of Human Kind: European Attitudes to Other Cultures in the Imperial Age
ISBN: 9781783604296 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. When European explorers went out into the world to open up trade routes and establish colonies, they brought back much more than silks and spices, cotton and tea. Inevitably, they also brought back impressions of the people with whom they came into contact--impressions that, while occasionally admiring, were more often hostile or contemptuous. First published in 1969, and a major influence on a generation of historians and cultural critics, Victor Kiernan's The Lords of Human Kind reveals the full range of those responses. Drawing on a wide array of sources, including...

Far reaching and ambitious in its scope, the book combines accounts of the changing relationship between Native Americans...
