ISBN: 9780815638001 / Angielski / Twarda / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. War Remains traces the poetics of ruination and resistance in select contemporary Lebanese wartime literature, cultural production, and sites of memory.

Philology and the Appropriation of the World: Champollion’s Hieroglyphs
ISBN: 9783031128936 / Angielski / Twarda / 189 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In its attempt to understand humanity as part of a grand history of progress, Champollion’s conception of ancient Egypt belongs to the universalistic aspirations of European...
