ISBN: 9780415916943 / Angielski / Miękka / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Examines how the body - its organs, limbs, viscera - was represented in the literature and culture of early modern Europe. Why did 16th and 17th century medical, religious, and literary texts portray the body part by part, rather than as an entity? And what does this view of the human body tell us about society's view of part and whole, of individual and universal in the early modern period?

The book presents work by: Nancy Vickers...

Art Forms in Nature
ISBN: 9780486229874 / Angielski / Miękka / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Today, although no one is greatly interested in Haeckel the biologist-philosopher, his work is increasingly prized for something he himself would probably have considered secondary. These are the remarkable plates with...
