Defenseless Under the Night: The Roosevelt Years and the Origins of Homeland Security
ISBN: 9780197503997 / Miękka / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. In his 1933 inaugural address, Franklin D.

At its head, Roosevelt appointed New York Mayor...

The Age of the Crisis of Man : Thought and Fiction in America, 1933-1973
ISBN: 9780691146393 / Twarda / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. In a midcentury American cultural episode forgotten today, intellectuals of all schools shared a belief that human nature was under threat. The immediate result was a glut of dense, abstract books on the "nature of man." But the dawning "age of the crisis of man," as Mark Greif calls it, was far more than a historical curiosity. In this ambitious intellectual and literary history, Greif recovers this lost line of thought to show how it influenced society, politics, and culture before, during, and long after World War II. During the 1930s and 1940s, fears of the barbarization of...
