Collective Memory Narratives in Contemporary Culture
ISBN: 9783031419232 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Starting from the central importance of memory in contemporary societies, this book encourages a transdisciplinary reflection on how the “presentification of the past” is never a simple reenactment but corresponds to the interaction between memory and cultural sensitiveness, present beliefs and needs, expectations, and forecasts for the future. It studies cultural (re)construction through collective stories, including academic debates, media narratives, collective mobilizations, state narratives of history, architectural reconstructions, and artistic expressions. It looks at how...

Micro Middle Ages
ISBN: 9783031382697 / Angielski / Miękka / 435 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Micro Middle Ages brings together five microhistorical case studies focusing on small or seemingly inconsequential evidence that leads to broader conclusions about medieval history and the way we do and understand history in general. Paul Dutton provides an overview of microhistorical approaches and theorizes about its use in pre-modern history. As opposed to studying history "from above" or history "from below," Dutton shows the advantages for historians of doing history "from the inside out," starting from some single, overlooked, but potentially knowable thing, delving deep...

Japanese Perspectives on Kazuo Ishiguro
ISBN: 9783031250002 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This collection of essays offers new perspectives from Japan on Nobel Prize–winning author Kazuo Ishiguro. It analyses the Japanese-born British author from the vantage point of his birthplace, showing how Ishiguro remains greatly indebted to Japanese culture and sensibilities. The influence of Japanese literature and film is evident in Ishiguro’s early novels as he deals with the problem of the atomic bomb and Japan’s war responsibility, yet his later works also engage with folk tales and the modern popular culture of Japan. The chapters consider a range of Japanese influences on...

Nicaea and the Future of Christianity
ISBN: 9781531510169 / Angielski / Twarda / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Commemorating the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea, this volume offers an original examination of the enduring impact of the single most famous gathering of Christians since the apostolic age. Despite the longstanding historical and theological study of the Council of Nicaea, several central questions remain. Was Nicaea a theological event or a political one? What does it mean if it was both? Was Constantine’s intervention without precedent, or was he simply continuing a long-standing role of a Roman emperor who was responsible for leading religious cult (albeit now for a...

The Metaphrase of Niketas Choniates’ ›History‹: Introduction, Edition, Commentary
ISBN: 9781614515968 / Angielski / Twarda / 500 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume presents, for the first time, a critical edition of a highly unusual Byzantine text: the Metaphrase – or intralingual translation – of the early 13th-century History (Chronike Diegesis) of Niketas Choniates. The original History of Choniates has always been considered a monument of Byzantine historical and rhetorical discourse. Its highly learned, Atticizing style of Greek, however, frequently made it obscure to readers, even in the Byzantine period. As a result, in the second quarter of the 14th century, probably in Constantinople, an individual or group of individuals...

Ice and Snow in the Cold War: Histories of Extreme Climatic Environments
ISBN: 9781836950738 / Angielski / Miękka / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The history of the Cold War has focused overwhelmingly on statecraft and military power, an approach that has naturally placed Moscow and Washington center stage. Meanwhile, regions such as Alaska, the polar landscapes, and the cold areas of the Soviet periphery have received little attention. However, such environments were of no small importance during the Cold War: in addition to their symbolic significance, they also had direct implications for everything from military strategy to natural resource management. Through histories of these extremely cold environments, this volume makes a...

This book edition of The Social Contract has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. The Social Contract, originally published as On the Social Contract; or, Principles of Political Rights by Jean-Jacques Rousseau, is a 1762 book in which Rousseau theorized about the best way to establish a political community in the face of the problems of commercial society, which he had already identified in his Discourse on Inequality (1754). The Social Contract helped inspire political reforms or revolutions in Europe, especially in France. The Social...

This book critically explores monuments, delving into their significance within colonial, gender and class realms through theory and real-world case studies.

Tracing the roots of monumentality to racial capitalism, the book highlights the contemporary implications of this concept. This book offers essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the complex intersections of memory and heritage in contemporary...
