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.

	Divergent Paths: How Culture & Institutions Have Shaped North American Growth ISBN: 9780195098662 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 320 str. ISBN: 9780195098662/Angielski/Twarda/1996/320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Marc Egnal Why are some countries without an apparent abundance of natural resources, such as Japan, economic success stories, while other languish in the doldrums of slow growth. In this comprehensive look at North American economic history, Marc Egnal argues that culture and institutions play an integral role in determining economic outcome. He focuses his examination on the eight colonies of the North, five colonies of the South (which together made up the original thirteen states), and French Canada. Using census data, diaries, travelers' accounts, and current scholarship, Egnal systematically...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Fatma Muge Gocek What are the causes of imperial decline? This work studies the Ottoman empire in the 18th and 19th centuries to argue that the Ottoman imperial decline resulted from a combination of Ottoman internal dynamics with external influences. Specifically, it contends that the split within the Ottoman social structure across ethno-religious lines interacted with the effects of war and commerce with the West to produce a bifurcated Ottoman bourgeoisie. This bourgeoisie, divided into disparate commercial and bureaucratic elements, was able to challenge the sultan but was ultimately unable to salvage... What are the causes of imperial decline?

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?

	Literacy and Script Reform in Occupation Japan: Reading Between the Lines ISBN: 9780195101669 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 192 str. ISBN: 9780195101669/Angielski/Twarda/1996/192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. J. Marshall Unger This book challenges the widespread belief that overzealous Americans forced unnecessary script reforms on an unprepared, unenthusiastic, but helpless Japan during the Occupation. Unger presents neglected historical evidence showing that the reforms implemented from 1946 to 1959 were both necessary and moderate. Although the United States Education Mission of 1946 recommended that the Japanese give serious consideration to the introduction of alphabetic writing, key American officials in the Civil Information and Education Section of GHQ/SCAP delayed and effectively killed action on this...

Gabor Boritt; Scott Hancock Americans have always defined themselves in terms of their freedoms--of speech, of religion, of political dissent. How we interpret our history of slavery--the ultimate denial of these freedoms--deeply affects how we understand the very fabric of our democracy. This extraordinary collection of essays by some of America's top historians focuses on how African Americans resisted slavery and how they responded when finally free. Ira Berlin sets the stage by stressing the relationship between how we understand slavery and how we discuss race today. The remaining essays offer a richly...

	Making Malcolm: The Myth and Meaning of Malcolm X ISBN: 9780195102857 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 256 str. ISBN: 9780195102857/Angielski/Miękka/1996/256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Michael Eric Dyson Malcolm X's cultural rebirth--his improbable second coming--brims with irony. The nineties are marked by intense and often angry debates about racial authenticity and "selling out," and the participants in these debates--from politicians to filmmakers to rap artists--often draw on Malcolm's scorching rebukes to such moves. Meanwhile, Malcolm's "X" is marketed in countless business endeavors and is stylishly branded on baseball hats and T-shirts sported by every age, race, and gender. But this rampant commercialization is only a small part of Malcolm's remarkable renaissance. One of the... Malcolm X's cultural rebirth--his improbable second coming--brims with irony.

Yet most printed collections of folktales contain only stories, stripped of the human contexts in which they are told.

	Primitivist Modernism: Black Culture and the Origins of Transatlantic Modernism ISBN: 9780195104035 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 192 str. ISBN: 9780195104035/Angielski/Twarda/1998/192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Sieglinde Lemke This book explores a rich cultural hybridity at the heart of transatlantic modernism. Focusing on cubism, jazz, and Josephine Baker's performance in the Danse Sauvage, Sieglinde Lemke uncovers a crucial history of white and black intercultural exchange, a phenomenon until now greatly obscured by a cloak of whiteness. Considering artists and critics such as Picasso, Alain Locke, Nancy Cunard, and Paul Whiteman, in addition to Baker, Lemke documents a potent cultural dialectic in which black artistic expression fertilized white modernism, just as white art forms helped shape the black...

Early chapters offer a detailed account of the anatomy, biophysics, and physiology of synaptic transmission at the peripheral and central synapses, focusing on the presynaptic control of transmitter release. Later chapters explore the organization of neural pathways leading to the presynaptic inhibition of transmitter release in segmental reflex pathways. A final section provides examples of the operation of presynaptic control mechanisms...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. C. John Sommerville The News Revolution in England: Cultural Dynamics of Daily Information is the first book to analyze the essential feature of periodical media, which is their periodicity. Having to sell the next issue as well as the present one changes the relation between authors and readers--or customers--and subtly shapes the way that everything is reported, whether politics, the arts and science, or social issues. So there are certain biases that are implicit in the dynamics of news production or commodified information, quite apart from the intentions of journalists. With the birth of the...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. James M. Wilce Eloquence in Trouble captures the articulation of several troubled lives in Bangladesh as well as the threats to the very genres of their expression, lament in particular. The first ethnography of one of the most spoken mother tongues on earth, Bangla, this study represents a new approach to troubles talk, combining the rigor of discourse analysis with the interpretive depth of psychological anthropology. Its careful transcriptions of Bangladeshi troubles talk will disturb some readers and move others--beyond past academic discussion of personhood in South Asia.

Rosaleen Howard-Malverde A major concern in current anthropological thinking is that the method of recording or translating into writing a society's cultural expressions--dance, rituals, pottery, the social use of space, et al--cannot help but fundamentally alter the meaning of the living words and deeds of the culture in question. Consequently, recent researchers have developed more dialogic methods for collecting, interpreting, and presenting data. These new techniques have yielded much success for anthropologists working in Latin America, especially in their efforts to understand how economically, politically, and...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Doris Witt The creation of the Aunt Jemima trademark from an 1889 vaudeville performance of a play called "The Emigrant" helped codify a pervasive connection between African American women and food. In Black Hunger, Doris Witt demonstrates how this connection has operated as a central structuring dynamic of twentieth-century U.S. psychic, cultural, sociopolitical, and economic life. Taking as her focus the tumultuous era of the late 1960s and early 1970s, when soul food emerged as a pivotal emblem of white radical chic and black bourgeois authenticity, Witt explores how this interracial...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Anthony P. Polednak The potential impact of segregation on the health of African-Americans is an intriguing and controversial topic that draws from the areas of epidemiology and the social sciences. Epidemiologists have recently turned to the study of racism and health, but epidemiologic studies have not dealt specifically with black-white segregation and health. This book examines mortality rates for African-Americans in selected U.S. urban areas in relation to both social class and the degree of black-white residential segregation. Despite allowances for economic disparity, mortality rates for African-American...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Yvonne Chireau; Nathaniel Deutsch Black Zion explores the myriad ways in which African American religions have encountered Jewish traditions, beliefs, and spaces. The collection's unifying argument is that religion is the missing piece of the cultural jigsaw puzzle, that much of the recent turmoil in black-Jewish relations would be better understood, if not alleviated, if the religious roots of those relations were illuminated. Toward that end, the contributors look a number of provocative topics, including the concept of the Chosen People, the typological identification of blacks with Jews, the actual identification...

How Long? presents both a rethinking of social movement theory and a controversial thesis: that chroniclers have egregiously neglected the most important leaders of the Civil Rights movement, African-American women, in favor of higher-profile African-American men and white women. Author Belinda Robnett argues that the diversity of experiences of the African-American women organizers has been underemphasized in favor of monolithic treatments of their femaleness and blackness. Drawing heavily on interviews with actual... A compelling and readable narrative history, How Long? How Long? presents both a rethinking of social movement theory and a controversial the...
