ISBN: 9780816626571 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Rethinking Third Cinema
ISBN: 9780415213547 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This anthology addresses established notions of Third Cinema theory, and the cinema pratice of developing and postcolonial nations. The Third Cinema movement called for a politicised film-making practice in Africa, Asia and Latin America, one which would take on board issues of race, class, religion, and national integrity. The films which resulted from the movement, from directors such as Ousmane Sembene, Satyajit Ray and Nelson Pereira dos Santos, are among the most culturally significant, politically sophisticated and frequently studied films of the 1960s and 1970s. However, despite the...

Self and Deception: A Cross-Cultural Philosophical Enquiry
ISBN: 9780791430323 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 373 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume contains essays by a range of distinguished philosophers on the problem of self-deception, or rather, self and deception. The work proceeds from the assumption that changing constructions of self within Western cultures, and alternative notions of self in other cultures requires that we rethink traditional strategies for explaining the phenomenon of self-deception. The concept of self is central to any sustained inquiry into self-deception, the pertinent issue being what sort of self is victim (or beneficiary) of self deception. Several of the authors here base their thinking...
