Описание: "Abrahamic religions" has gained currency in scholarly and ecumenical circles as a way to refer to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Carol Bakhos steps back from the convention to ask: What is Abrahamic about these three faiths? She challenges references to Judaism and Islam as sibling religions and warns against uncritical adoption of the term.

Описание: Simone de Beauvoir identified the importance of Maurice Merleau-Ponty`s writings to feminist theory. But there has been little agreement on how Merleau-Ponty`s ideas ultimately have an impact on feminist philosophy. The essays presented here attempt to situate Merleau-Ponty in the larger context of feminist theory.

Описание: Now more than ever, architects and designers are crossing aesthetic borders, and redefining craft to suit their own creative needs, philosophies, and expectations often by commenting upon or challenging it. By transforming our notions of what might be considered crafted, today's practitioners have not only put a new spin on an ancient art; they have expanded our understanding of where and how the personal touch is found in the sometimes bewildering or inhospitable terrain of the contemporary aesthetic landscape. Featuring twenty-five residential, commercial, and institutional projects by major international design figures as well as the relatively unknown and up-and-coming this volume looks at what constitutes the craft influence in contemporary architecture and design.

By turns luxurious and simple; time-honored and leading-edge; small-scale and monumental; unabashedly beautiful, surprisingly witty, socially adroit, and sublimely poetic, these projects are sure to give us a new appreciation of the pleasures of making and enlarge and enrich our understanding of the presence, and importance, of craft in all our lives.
