Описание:
The publication of Cultural Studies 1983 is a touchstone event in the history of Cultural Studies and a testament to Stuart Hall's unparalleled contributions. The eight foundational lectures Hall delivered at the University of Illinois in 1983 introduced North American audiences to a thinker and discipline that would shift the course of critical scholarship. Unavailable until now, these lectures present Hall's original engagements with the theoretical positions that contributed to the formation of Cultural Studies. Throughout this personally guided tour of Cultural Studies' intellectual genealogy, Hall discusses the work of Richard Hoggart, Raymond Williams, and E. P. Thompson; the influence of structuralism; the limitations and possibilities of Marxist theory; and the importance of Althusser and Gramsci. Throughout these theoretical reflections, Hall insists that Cultural Studies aims to provide the means for political change.

Описание: 'This is a miracle of a book' George Lamming 'Compelling. Stuart Hall's story is the story of an age' Owen Jones 'Sometimes I feel I was the last colonial'This is the story, in his own words, of the extraordinary life of Stuart Hall: writer, thinker and one of the leading intellectual lights of his age. Growing up in a middle-class family in 1930s Jamaica, then still a British colony, Hall found himself caught between two worlds: the stiflingly respectable middle class in Kingston, who, in their habits and ambitions, measured themselves against the white planter elite; and working-class and peasant Jamaica, neglected and grindingly poor, though rich in culture, music and history.
But as colonial rule was challenged, things began to change in Jamaica and across the world. When, in 1951, a scholarship took him across the Atlantic to Oxford University, Hall encountered other Caribbean writers and thinkers, from Sam Selvon and George Lamming to V. S.
Naipaul. He also forged friendships with the likes of Raymond Williams and E. P.
Thompson, with whom he worked in the formidable political movement, the New Left, and developed his groundbreaking ideas on cultural theory. Familiar Stranger takes us to the heart of Hall's struggle in post-war England: that of building a home and a life in a country where, rapidly, radically, the social landscape was transforming, and urgent new questions of race, class and identity were coming to light. Told with passion and wisdom, this is a story of how the forces of history shape who we are.

Описание: A new edition of this well-respected work. ""Doctrine and Practice in the Early Church"" is clearly written and carefully organized with cross-references throughout to its two companion volumes, ""A New Eusebius and Creeds"" and ""Councils and Controversies"" (revised editions SPCK 1987 and 1989). It is well established as the standard introduction to the subject for student and general reader alike. The second edition makes the text easier to understand in the light of widespread use; provides a fuller and updated bibliography; and brings thinking up to date on a number of topics including house churches, Athanasius, Gnostics, Hippolytus, Constantine, the Creed of Constantinople, and the Monophysites. Praise for the First Edition ""At a time when seminary professors and ecclesiastical bereaucrats are busily sawing off the historic branches on which the churches have sat, it is gratifying that theological students and faithful laypeople should have available to them such an account as this of the missionary, moral, and intellectual achievements of the scriptural and traditional church of the early centuries. Stuart Hall's book provides an excellent introduction, both scholarly and accesible, to the formative period on which any recognizable version of Christianity will continue to depend."" --Geoffrey Wainwright Cushman Professor of Systematic Theology in the Divinity School of Duke University, Durham, North Carolina. ""Hall walks with the scholar's ease and grace through the ancient texts. His book has the advantage of treating more explicitly the liturgical practice of the ancient church, in addition to key persons, doctrinal issues, and movements. . . . The author's literary skill enhances what could have been a heavy technical presentation, making the book suitable for classroom use. . . . Scholars will find fresh perspectives on old issues."" --Kilian McDonnel, OSB, STD Priest, theologian, and monk of Saint John's Abbey, Collegeville, Minnesota Stuart G. Hall was formerly professor of Ecclesiastical History at King's College, London. He has written extensively on the early Church and on the New Testament, and works as a parish priest of the Scottish Episcopal Church in Fife.
