ISBN: 9781107036925 / Angielski / Twarda / 626 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Thomas Hardy (1840-1928), the Victorian novelist, poet, and short-story author, wrote of the struggles and unhappiness caused by the constraints of social convention, particularly in relation to religion, class, education, and marriage. Hardy's first published novel, Desperate Remedies (1871), a piece of sensation fiction that encompasses illegitimacy, murder, blackmail, impersonation, and bigamy, was originally published anonymously. Written while, in Hardy's own words, he was "feeling his way to a method," it nonetheless contains early examples of the kinds of extreme situations and...

Cranford: By the Author of 'Mary Barton', 'Ruth', Etc.
ISBN: 9781108060424 / Angielski / Twarda / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the delicately impoverished town of Cranford, everyone is keen to know everyone else's business. The community is almost devoid of men, and in their place a solid matriarchy has formed. Manners must be observed, house calls must not exceed a quarter of an hour, and neither money matters nor death may be discussed in public. But the peace is often disturbed. Rumoured burglars, literary disagreements, and the arrival of Captain Brown and his tactless daughters all cause ripples, warmly charted by the conversational narrator, Mary Smith. When the past erupts through the fragile class...

Money and the Early Greek Mind: Homer, Philosophy, Tragedy
ISBN: 9780521832281 / Angielski / Twarda / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. How were the Greeks of the sixth century BC able to invent philosophy and tragedy? Richard Seaford argues that a large part of the answer can be found in another momentous development, the invention and rapid spread of coinage. By transforming social relations, monetization contributed to the concepts of the universe as an impersonal system (fundamental to Presocratic philosophy) and of the individual alienated from his own kin and from the gods, as found in tragedy.
