Press, Politics and the Public Sphere in Europe and North America, 1760-1820 Cambridge University Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Newspapers are a vital component of print and political cultures, and as such they informed as well as documented the social and political upheavals of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. However, despite the huge influence attributed to them by both contemporary observers and historians, our knowledge of the nature and function of the newspaper press itself remains scant.

Swans - ofiara i transcendencja Underdog Press Underdog Press

empty

Grupa Swans, założona przez Michaela Girę w Nowym Jorku czterdzieści lat temu, zaczynała jako formacja undergroundowa, określana jako "najgłośniejszy zespół na świecie. Przechodziła potem kolejne metamorfozy, wiążące się z częstymi zmianami składu, a pod koniec następnej dekady zakończyła działalność wskutek niepowodzeń i ogólnego zniechęcenia. Odrodziła się triumfalnie w roku 2010 i przez kolejne lata zachwycała zarówno krytyków, jak i coraz liczniejszych fanów, osiągając status jednej z najbardziej szanowanych formacji muzycznych na świecie. "Ofiara i transcendencja" to przewodnik po świecie tego niezwykłego zespołu, obejmujący dzieje od lat 80. aż do dnia dzisiejszego - pokłosie ponad stu dwudziestu pięciu wywiadów przeprowadzonych specjalnie z myślą o tej publikacji. Polskie wydanie zawiera także posłowie autorstwa Bartka Chacińskiego, uzupełniające historię zespołu i opisujące wpływ Swans na polską scenę muzyczną. NICK SOULSBY jest pisarzem i dziennikarzem od wielu lat zajmującym się niezależną sceną muzyczną. Jest autorem następujących książek: Thurston Moore: We Sing A New Language (2017), Cobain On Cobain: Interviews & Encounters (2016), I Found My Friends: The Oral History Of Nirvana (2015) and Dark Slivers: Seeing Nirvana In The Shards Of Incesticide (2012).

East of the Sun and West of the Moon - Old Tales From the North - Illustrated by Kay Nielsen Read Books

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Pook Press celebrates the great Golden Age of Illustration in children's literature. Many of the earliest children's books, particularly those dating back to the 1850s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Pook Press are working to republish these classic works in affordable, high quality, colour editions, using the original text and artwork so these works can delight another generation of children. Kay Nielsen (1886-1957) was a Danish illustrator of the golden age of illustration. He was influenced by Japanese art and the Swedish fairy tale illustrator John Bauer and contributed to the Art Nouveau movement. His illustrations are bold, and vibrant - often reproduced by a 4-colour process which set him apart from his contemporaries who typically used a 3-colour process. His art is characterised by long, swooping lines, open spaces and a certain macabre quality and his ephemeral illustrations are intricately inventive, flirting with implausibility. The shift in taste from fantasy to realism after WWII meant that Nielsen did not retain his pre-war popularity. However, interest in his exquisite illustrations has since been revived, and they now command a high price in today's art world.

Mythology of Native North America University of Oklahoma Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Most North Americans experience mythology by way of translations of classical texts, and surprisingly few of us are familiar with Coyote, Spider Woman, Water Jar boy, Falling Sky Woman, or the epic of the Blessingway - to name just a few of the stories retold in this collection of significant myths of Native North America. David Leeming and Jake Page, building on the success of their Goddess: Myths of the Female Divine and God: Myths of the Male Divine, have provided an introduction and commentary on seventy-two myths drawn from a variety of cultures and language groups. They honor the Native pantheons, cosmologies, heroes, and heroines first as cultural expressions, then as variations on other mythic narratives to which they may be related, and ultimately as expressions of the larger human experience of mythmaking. David Leeming is Professor Emeritus of English and Comparative Literature at the University of Connecticut, Storrs. Jake Page is the coauthor of Wild Justice: The People of Geronimo V. the United States, also published by University of Oklahoma Press.

North American Indians: A Very Short Introduction Oxford University Press Inc

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

When Europeans first arrived in North America, between five and eight million indigenous people were already living there. But how did they come to be here? What were their agricultural, spiritual, and hunting practices? How did their societies evolve and what challenges do they face today? Eminent historians Theda Perdue and Michael Green begin by describing how nomadic bands of hunter-gatherers followed the bison and woolly mammoth over the Bering land mass between Asia and what is now Alaska between 25,000 and 15,000 years ago, settling throughout North America. They describe hunting practices among different tribes, how some made the gradual transition to more settled, agricultural ways of life, the role of kinship and cooperation in Native societies, their varied burial rites and spiritual practices, and many other features of Native American life. Throughout the book, Perdue and Green stress the great diversity of indigenous peoples in America, who spoke more than 400 different languages before the arrival of Europeans and whose ways of life varied according to the environments they settled in and adapted to so successfully.Most importantly, the authors stress how Native Americans have struggled to maintain their sovereignty-first with European powers and then with the United States-in order to retain their lands, govern themselves, support their people, and pursue practices that have made their lives meaningful. Going beyond the stereotypes that so often distort our views of Native Americans, this Very Short Introduction offers an historically accurate, deeply engaging, and often inspiring account of the wide array of Native peoples in America. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

The CEFR in Practice - Brian North

Książki & Multimedia > Książki

Opis - This volume gives an overview of the impact of the CEFR on teaching and assessment as well as the extensive debate surrounding the framework. It covers the four main areas with which the CEFR is concerned: its role as a common framework, the Common Reference Levels, what the CEFR implies for planning and teaching, and assessment of CEFR levels. A distinction is maintained between practical information and academic discussion. Each chapter is organised into three sections: Essentials, to introduce the relevance of the CEFR to the topic concerned; More detail, to give examples of the implementation of the framework; and Issues, a discursive section with a foucs on misconceptions of the CEFR and how these could be addressed. The conclusion discusses the extent to which the CEFR is generating change, the priorities for curriculum development in the future and how the framework can be further exploited and developed.
