Because such questions go to the very heart of current conflicts about Western value systems, they are unlikely to receive definitive answers. But they are still very much worth exploring - which is...

ISBN: 9781890951153 / Angielski / Miękka / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

At the same time they believed they could read entire cultures and worldviews in the work of art. The key to this contextualist alchemy was the concept of -structure, - a kind of deep formal...
