The First World War Retold
ISBN: 9781904897392 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Though the Imperial War Museum in London is one of the most popular destinations for tourists and residents in all of the city, few people realize that it was founded in the midst of World War I. As realization of the scale, and the costs, of the war grew, the War Cabinet approved a proposal to create a national war museum to collect and display artifacts that would tell the story of the war as experienced by soldier and civilian alike--and, in particular, would testify to the sacrifices the war demanded. ?A century later, IWM continues to fulfill that role it has held since its founding...

The Minister and his Peace: Lord Shelburne, the British Pamphlet Press and the Peace of Paris, 1783
ISBN: 9781036413170 / Angielski / Twarda / 2024 / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The British press in the eighteenth century significantly influenced politics, often making or breaking careers. The career of Lord Shelburne, the first Irish-born British Prime Minister, exemplifies this, yet he has remained something of an enigma. His brief administration (July 1782 to March 1783) was nonetheless notable for recognizing the independence of the United States. This investigation into the contemporary pamphlet press illustrates why he was so distrusted as well as the long-term influences shaping the 1783 Peace of Paris, and challenges the view that Shelburne was an idealist...

Partnership in Crisis
ISBN: 9781855674677 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The debate on the architecture of European security may have moved towards a conclusion during 1996. There is a new air of compromise between the US and Europe with France's rapprochement with NATO, the US acceptance of a European Security and Defence Identity within the Alliance, and agreement on the idea of a Combined Joint Task Force. This work examines the background to the development of the current debate, what a European Security and Defence Identity amounts to, and whether the compromise is durable.

Intellectual Property: Omnipresent, Distracting, Irrelevant?
ISBN: 9780199263073 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Intellectual property rights (IPRs) are increasingly significant elements of economic policy: they are vital to developed countries in an age of global trade. This book focuses on the major dilemmas that currently enmesh the subject: the omnipresent spread of IPRs across some recent technologies, the distraction caused by rights that achieve little of their intended purpose, and the seeming irrelevance of IPRs in the face of new technologies such as the internet.

Vernacular Translation in Dante's Italy: Illiterate Literature
ISBN: 9781107001138 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Translation and commentary are often associated with institutions and patronage; but in Italy around the time of Dante, widespread vernacular translation was mostly on the spontaneous initiative of individuals. While Dante is usually the starting point for histories of vernacular translation in Europe, this book demonstrates that The Divine Comedy places itself in opposition to a vast vernacular literature already in circulation among its readers. Alison Cornish explores the anxiety of vernacularization as expressed by translators and contemporary authors, the prevalence of translation in...

Anaphora, Discourse, and Understanding
ISBN: 9780198236481 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "This was a different man," said Mr Welbecker. "Listen! This man was called Hamlet and his uncle had killed his father because he wanted to marry his mother."
"What did he want to marry his mother for?" said William. "I've never heard of anyone wanting to marry their mother."* In almost any conversation the meaning of what is said depends on the listener seeing how some words refer to what has already been said, and that others must be related to the characteristics of time, place, or person of the situation around which the conversation revolves. These modes of reference, anaphora and... "This was a different man," said Mr Welbecker. "Listen! This man was called Hamlet and his uncle had killed his father because he wanted to marry his ...

Winner of the 2006 FIELD Poetry Prize, Red Studio is a collection of startling lyricism, vivid sensuality, and keen precision. Cornish's poems tell about life and art and their interdependence. They are fierce, funny, and filled with a love of the world that acknowledges candidly how precarious it is--or rather, how brief our time in it must be.
