ISBN: 9783631746042 / Angielski / Twarda / 436 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book constitutes an innovative study devoted to modernisation processes among Lviv Jews during the period of Galicia's autonomy (1867-1914). It takes into account Vienna's influence on various areas of life.

Key processes and events are presented, including the success and failure of assimilation, the shaping of modern Jewish elites, political and religious conflicts, the birth of Zionism, economic and political migration, and the influence of Jews...

Alternative Histories of the Self: A Cultural History of Sexuality and Secrets, 1762-1917
ISBN: 9781350118898 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Alternative Histories of the Self investigates how people re-imagined the idea of the unique self in the period from 1762 to 1917. Some used the notion of the unique self to justify their gender and sexual transgression, but others rejected the notion of the unique self and instead demanded the sacrifice of the self for the good of society. The substantial introductory chapter places these themes in the cultural context of the long nineteenth century, but the book as a whole represents an alternative method for studying the self. Instead of focusing on the thoughts of great thinkers, this...
