Kategorie szczegółowe BISAC

Książki o kulturze, to niezwykle bogaty dział publikacji, które pozwolą poznać bogactwo kulturowe innych krajów, a także inną różnorodną tematykę dotyczącą odkrywania wytworów człowieka. Wiąże się to bezpośrednio z etnologią, która zajmuje się takimi badaniami.
Etnologia, to jedna z dyscyplin, obok etnografii, antropologii kulturowej i społecznej, wchodzących w zakres antropologii – nauki o człowieku i jego kulturze. Terminy te często traktowane są jako synonimy tej samej dziedziny badań. Etnologia jest terminem używanym przez przedstawicieli europejskiej i kontynentalnej nauki o człowieku i odpowiada niemieckiemu terminowi Völkerkunde (badania ludów pierwotnych). Etnologia klasyfikuje ludy na podstawie cech środowiskowych i kulturowych oraz opisuje poszczególne kultury.

ISBN: 9780195131475/Angielski/Twarda/2000/280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Christopher J. Olsen This groundbreaking study of the politics of secession combines traditional political history with current work in anthropology and gender and ritual studies. Christopher J. Olsen has drawn on local election returns, rural newspapers, manuscripts, and numerous county records to sketch a new picture of the intricate and colorful world of local politics. In particular, he demonstrates how the move toward secession in Mississippi was deeply influenced by the demands of masculinity within the state's antiparty political culture. Face-to-face relationships and personal reputations, organized...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Mia Bay How did African-American slaves view their white masters? As demons, deities or another race entirely? When nineteenth-century white Americans proclaimed their innate superiority, did blacks agree? If not, why not? How did blacks assess the status of the white race? Mia Bay traces African-American perceptions of whites between 1830 and 1925 to depict America's shifting attitudes about race in a period that saw slavery, emancipation, Reconstruction, and urban migration. Much has been written about how the whites of this time viewed blacks, and about how blacks viewed themselves. By... How did African-American slaves view their white masters? As demons, deities or another race entirely? When nineteenth-century white Americans proclai...

	The Owl, the Raven, & the Dove: The Religious Meaning of the Grimms' Magic Fairy Tales ISBN: 9780195136074 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 208 str. ISBN: 9780195136074/Angielski/Twarda/2000/208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. G. Ronald Murphy The fairy tales collected by the brothers Grimm are among the best known and most widely-read stories in western literature. In recent years commentators such as Bruno Bettelheim have, usually from a psychological perspective, pondered the underlying meaning of the stories, why children are so enthralled by them, and what effect they have on the the best-known tales (Hansel and Gretel, Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Snow White, and Sleeping Beauty) and shows that the Grimms saw them as Christian fables. Murphy examines the arguments of previous interpreters of the... The fairy tales collected by the brothers Grimm are among the best known and most widely-read stories in western literature.

	Visible Identities: Race, Gender, and the Self ISBN: 9780195137354 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 344 str. ISBN: 9780195137354/Angielski/Miękka/2005/344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Linda Martin Alcoff In the heated debates over identity politics, few theorists have looked carefully at the conceptualizations of identity assumed by all sides. Visible Identities fills this gap. Drawing on both philosophical sources as well as theories and empirical studies in the social sciences, Martin Alcoff makes a strong case that identities are not like special interests, nor are they doomed to oppositional politics, nor do they inevitably lead to conformism, essentialism, or reductive approaches to judging others. Identities are historical formations and their political implications are open to...
