Embodied Dependencies and Freedoms: Artistic Communities and Patronage in Asia
ISBN: 9783110991109 / Angielski / Twarda / 463 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Have you ever thought about dependencies in Asian art and architecture?

Watchful Lives in the U.S.-Mexico Borderlands
ISBN: 9783110997279 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Watchfulness shapes many Chicanxs’ and other People of Color’s everyday lives in San Diego.

Negotiating Masculinities and Modernity in the Maritime World, 1815–1940: A Sailor’s Progress?
ISBN: 9783030779481 / Angielski / Miękka / 313 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

It begins with the enduring image of romantic, heroic veterans of the Napeolonic...
