Taking an historical approach, the author explores both how the UN has affected world politics and how the international political system has formed and limited the work of the Organization.

Medieval Germany, 500-1300: A Political Interpretation
ISBN: 9780333610923 / Angielski / Miękka / 247 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The Politics of Jane Austen
ISBN: 9780333747193 / Angielski / Twarda / 175 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Jane Austen is a formative influence on how we think about 'England' and 'Englishness', about class, ideology and gender issues. But the critical convoy for 'Jane', as she is patronizingly styled, aligns her with conservative views which her texts entertain - but don't finally sign up for. In fact, as Edward Neill points out in this devastating new study, it is possible to show that 'Tory Jane' is largely illusion, and that much traditional critical effort has been fundamentally misdirected. This exhilarating book seeks to 'liberate' the reading of Jane Austen by offering a very different...
