Kultura. Etnografia
ilość książek w kategorii: 54599
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.

Everyday Stalinism: Ordinary Life In Extraordinary Times: Soviet Russia in the 1930's
ISBN: 9780195050011 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Here is a pioneering account of everyday life under Stalin, written by a leading authority on modern Russian history. Focusing on the urban population, Fitzpatrick depicts a world of privation, overcrowding, endless lines, and broken homes, in which the regime's promises of future socialist abundance rang hollowly. We read of a government bureaucracy that often turned life into a nightmare, and of how ordinary citizens tried to circumvent it.

Departing from existing scholarship, Reed locates the sources of Du Bois's thought in the cauldron of reform-minded intellectual life at the turn of the century, demonstrating that a commitment to liberal collectivism, an essentially Fabian socialism, remained pivotal in Du Bois's thought even as he embraced a range of political programs over time, including radical Marxism. Exploring the segregation-era political discourse which informed Du Bois's texts, and...

The Culture of Criticism and the Criticism of Culture
ISBN: 9780195056426 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Giles Gunn's important new work is at once a provocative defense of the kind of moral reflection once associated in America with the writings of Lionel Trilling and Edmund Wilson and an acknowledgement that this pragmatic legacy must be reevaluated in the light of challenges posed by structuralist and post-structuralist theory. Including detailed discussions of such thinkers as Kenneth Burke, Clifford Geertz, Mikhail Bakhtin, Richard Rorty, Trilling, and Wilson, Gunn challenges the assumptions of modern criticism with a revised interpretation of pragmatism and its critical legacy.

These essays on various aspects of family life in ancient Rome offer an especially timely and provocative new characterization of how this most elementary component of Roman society was structured.

An incisive look at American Indian and Euro-American relations from the seventeenth century to the present, this book focuses on how such relations--and Indian responses to them--have shaped contemporary Indian political fortunes.

The final part of the book recounts the slow, steady reemergence...

The Origins of the Mithraic Mysteries: Cosmology and Salvation in the Ancient World
ISBN: 9780195067880 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In the centuries following the conquests of Alexander the Great the dramatic unification of the Mediterranean world created exceptionally fertile soil for the growth of new religions. Christianity, for example, was one of the innovative religious movements that arose during this time. However, Christianity had many competitors, and one of the most remarkable of these was the ancient Roman "mystery religion" of Mithraism.
Like the other "mystery cults" of antiquity, Mithraism kept its beliefs strictly secret, revealing them only to initiates. As a result, the cult's teachings were never...
