Wrastanie w kulturę
ISBN: 9788361538578 / Polski / Miękka / 193 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Książka w nowatorski sposób podejmuje zagadnienie związków między edukacją a kulturą z perspektywy psychologii narracyjnej. Autorka wykazuje, że istotną rolę w procesie wychowania odgrywają narracje „wielkie”, opowieści rodzinne o miłości czy dzieciństwie, jak również narracje „małe”, za pomocą których rodzice przekazują dzieciom ważne treści. Rozwój psychiczny jest efektem nie tylko świadomych oddziaływań wychowawczych rodziców, ale także „zanurzania się” dziecka w świecie znaczeń, jakie oferuje mu kultura. Narracje kultury są bogate w...

Historical and modern political unity from the perspective of cultural transmission
ISBN: 9781480029385 / Angielski / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book offers an informational theory of geopolitical and social change derived from linguistics, history, and education.

The writer introduces you to finds, reminders of cultural products created in prehistoric times. Some archaeological finds contain drawings, writings, numerals made partially 20-30.000 years ago. We can see petrified human foot prints together wit that of dinosaurs. A three million years old human skeleton was found looking like we do. There are remnants of very old cultures we never learned about. Darwin said once, if somebody brings him just one example contradicting his theory, he would call his theory as not valid. By now, numerous finds contradicting Darwin's theory are known to our...

Greater Khorasan: History, Geography, Archaeology and Material Culture
ISBN: 9783110331554 / Angielski / Twarda / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The modern sense of "Greater Khorasan" today corresponds to a territory which not only comprises the region in the east of Iran but also, beyond Iranian frontiers, a part of Afghanistan and Turkmenistan. In the past this entity was simply defined as Khorasan. In the Sassanid era Khorasan defined the "Eastern lands." In the Islamic era this term was again taken up in the same sense it previously enjoyed. The Arab sources of the first centuries all mention the eastern regions under the same toponym, Khorasan. Khorasan was the gateway used by Alexander the Great to go into...

Michael Burger's goal in this inexpensive overview is to provide a brief, historical narrative of Western civilization.

The Persian Expedition
ISBN: 9780140440072 / Angielski / Miękka / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Xenophon s epic march into the heart of Persia has stirred the imagination of free men for centuries. Possibly written from diaries compiled at the time, there is no doubt that The Persian Expedition is one of the best pictures we have of Greeks confronting the barbarian world. We see the soldiers debate leaders and strategy in open assembly; we see them falling on their knees in superstitious fear; we see them planning a piratical colony on barbarian land. And at the same time we share the rigors of the march to Babylon, the dismay of unexpected defeat, the uncertainty of the long...

Xenophon's Anabasis, or the Expedition of Cyrus
ISBN: 9780195188684 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Xenophon's Anabasis, or The Expedition of Cyrus, is one of the most exciting historical narratives--as well as the most important autobiographical work--to have survived from ancient Greece. It tells the story of Cyrus, a young and charismatic Persian prince, who in 401 BC enlisted more than ten thousand Greek mercenaries in an attempt to seize the vast Persian empire for himself. Cyrus was killed in a great battle, most of the Greek commanders subsequently fell victim to treachery, and an Athenian aristocrat by the name of Xenophon found himself in the unexpected position...

From one of the world's leading experts on Native American law and indigenous peoples' human rights comes an original and striking intellectual history of the tribe and Western civilization that sheds new light on how we understand ourselves and our contemporary society. Throughout the centuries, conquest, war, and unspeakable acts of violence and dispossession have all been justified by citing civilization's opposition to these differences represented by the tribe. Robert Williams, award winning author, legal scholar, and member of the Lumbee Indian Tribe, proposes a wide-ranging...

Early Mesopotamia: Society and Economy at the Dawn of History
ISBN: 9780415110327 / Angielski / Miękka / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The roots of our modern world lie in the civilization of Mesopotamia, which saw the development of the first urban society and the invention of writing. The cuneiform texts reveal the technological and social innovations of Sumer and Babylonia as surprisingly modern, and the influence of this fascinating culture was felt throughout the Near East. Early Mesopotamia gives an entirely new account, integrating the archaeology with historical data which until now have been largely scattered in specialist literature.

The Order of Things
ISBN: 9780415267373 / Angielski / Miękka / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When one defines "order" as a sorting of priorities, it becomes beautifully clear as to what Foucault is doing here. With virtuoso showmanship, he weaves an intensely complex history of thought. He dips into literature, art, economics and even biology in The Order of Things, possibly one of the most significant, yet most overlooked, works of the twentieth century. Eclipsed by his later work on power and discourse, nonetheless it was The Order of Things that established Foucault's reputation as an intellectual giant. Pirouetting around the outer edge of language, Foucault...
