Shifting Ethnic Identities in Spain and Gaul, 500-700: From Romans to Goths and Franks
ISBN: 9789089648808 / Angielski / Twarda / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Traditional scholarship on post-Roman western culture has tended to examine the ethnic identities of Goths, Franks, and similar groups while neglecting the Romans themselves, in part because modern scholars have viewed the concept of being Roman as one denoting primarily a cultural or legal affiliation. As this book demonstrates, however, early medieval Romanness also encompassed a sense of belonging to an ethnic group, which allowed Romans in Iberia and Gaul to adopt Gothic or Frankish identities in a more nuanced manner than has been previously acknowledged in the literature."

María Zambrano: A Life of Poetic Reason and Political Commitment
ISBN: 9781783169757 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Maria Zambrano (1904-91) was one of the most original Spanish thinkers of the twentieth century, known for her attempt to use poetic reason to overcome the limitations of Enlightenment-based rationality. This book offers a close look at her work, arguing that while the presence of a spiritual component is undeniable, at the same time her thought is far from mystical or unapproachable--rather, it offers an alternative form of rationality, one that links the personal to the political and makes the path to self-development also the path of civic and political engagement.
