Santa Muerte Devotion: Vulnerability, Protection, Intimacy
ISBN: 9781009446617 / Angielski / Miękka / 2025 / 75 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In recent decades the cult of Santa Muerte has become a remarkable phenomenon in Mexico's popular religious landscape, from where it has migrated abroad. Due to the uncommon iconography of the robed skeleton and the association with criminality, the Santa Muerte cult has been the object of public controversy. This Element deconstructs mainstream views of Santa Muerte devotion by privileging the voices and practices of devotees. Counterintuitively, Santa Muerte devotion is about assuring a good life in health, work, love, justice, and security. Notwithstanding the cult's rapid growth and...

Metamorphoses: Towards a Materialist Theory of Becoming
ISBN: 9780745625775 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The discussions about the ethical, political and human implications of the postmodernist condition have been raging for longer than most of us care to remember. They have been especially fierce within feminism. After a brief flirtation with postmodern thinking in the 1980s, mainstream feminist circles seem to have turned their back on the staple notions of poststructuralist philosophy. Metamorphoses takes stock of the situation and attempts to reset priorities within the poststructuralist feminist agenda.
Cross-referring in a creative way to Deleuze's and Irigaray's... The discussions about the ethical, political and human implications of the postmodernist condition have been raging for longer than most of us care to...

Language Contact and the Origins of the Germanic Languages
ISBN: 9781138245372 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. History, archaeology, and human evolutionary genetics provide us with an increasingly detailed view of the origins and development of the peoples that live in Northwestern Europe. This book aims to restore the key position of historical linguistics in this debate by treating the history of the Germanic languages as a history of its speakers. It focuses on the role that language contact has played in creating the Germanic languages, between the first millennium BC and the crucially important early medieval period. Chapters on the origins of English, German, Dutch, and the Germanic language...

Transpositions: On Nomadic Ethics
ISBN: 9780745635965 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. This major new book offers a highly original account of ethical and political subjectivity in contemporary culture. It makes a strong case for a non-unitary or nomadic conception of the subject, in opposition to the claims of ideologies such as conservatism, liberal individualism and techno-capitalism.
Braidotti takes a bold stand against moral universalism, while offering a vigorous defence of nomadic ethics against the charges of relativism and nihilism. She calls for a new form of ethical accountability that takes "Life" as the subject, not the object, of enquiry. This ethics is...

Nomadic Theory: The Portable Rosi Braidotti
ISBN: 9780231151917 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Rosi Braidotti's nomadic theory outlines a sustainable modern subjectivity as one in flux, never opposed to a dominant hierarchy yet intrinsically other, always in the process of becoming, and perpetually engaged in dynamic power relations both creative and restrictive. Nomadic theory offers an original and powerful alternative for scholars working in cultural and social criticism and has, over the past decade, crept into continental philosophy, queer theory, and feminist, postcolonial, techno-science, media, and race studies, as well as into architecture, history, and anthropology. This...

Cultures under Siege: Collective Violence and Trauma
ISBN: 9780521780261 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Collective violence changes the perpetrators, victims, and societies in which it occurs. It targets the body, the psyche, and the socio-cultural order. How do people come to terms with these tragic events? This groundbreaking collection of essays by anthropologists, psychologists and psychoanalysts, drawing on field research in many different parts of the world, profits from an interdisciplinary dialogue. Providing provocative, at times deeply troubling, insights into the darker side of humanity, it also proposes new ways of understanding the terrible things that people are capable of doing...
