ISBN: 9789004096271 / Angielski / Twarda / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The domain of change for this ecolinguistic variation is the extended family in which the middle generation...

ISBN: 9789004125872 / Angielski / Twarda / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume discusses the indirect influence of oral transmission on the genesis and evolution of the Persian written epic tradition.

The Verbal System in the Hebrew Text of Ben Sira
ISBN: 9789004136670 / Angielski / Twarda / 470 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume is a revised and enlarged version of the author's Ph.D. dissertation (1999).

Due attention is paid to the heterogeneous character of the textual evidence (three manuscripts from the Desert of Judah and six mediaeval manuscripts from the Cairo Geniza), which complicates any linguistic study of Ben Sira. A descriptive analysis is complemented by a comparison with other contemporaneous, earlier, and later forms of Hebrew. It is argued that the Hebrew of Ben Sira is a...

Desiring Arabs
ISBN: 9780226509594 / Angielski / Miękka / 472 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Sexual desire has long played a key role in Western judgments about the value of Arab civilization. In the past, Westerners viewed the Arab world as licentious, and Western intolerance of sex led them to brand Arabs as decadent; but as Western society became more sexually open, the supposedly prudish Arabs soon became viewed as backward. Rather than focusing exclusively on how these views developed in the West, in Desiring Arabs Joseph A. Massad reveals the history of how Arabs represented their own sexual desires. To this aim, he assembles a massive and diverse compendium of Arabic...
