Patriarchy and Families of Privilege in Fifteenth-Century England
ISBN: 9780812230727 / Angielski / Twarda / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There are, contends Joel Rosenthal, two suppositions that have achieved almost full and unquestionable acceptance in contemporary social history and family studies.

In Patriarchy and Families of Privilege in Fifteenth-Century England, the author joins quantitative and legal evidence with case studies to yield a depiction of the family as something at once corporeal,...

ISBN: 9780822328094 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lying appears to be ubiquitous, what Franz Kafka called "a universal principle"; yet, despite a number of recent books on the subject, it has been given comparatively little genuinely systematic attention by philosophers, social scientists, or even literary theorists. In "The Habit of Lying "John Vignaux Smyth examines three forms of falsification--lying, concealment, and fiction--and makes a strong critique of traditional approaches to each of them, and, above all, to the relations among them.
