Описание: Caterina Sforza (1463-1509) commissioned elaborate artistic and architectural works, and collected a dazzling array of clothing, jewelry, and household goods. This book investigates Sforza`s cultural endeavors, and explores the ways in which gender, culture, and consumption practices were central to the invention of the self in early modern Italy.
Описание: This book uses the phenomenological interpretive approach of Paul Ricoeur to shed new light on New Testament eschatological expectation. Peter C. de Vries argues for a metaphorical reading of the apocalyptic discourse of Mark 13, based upon neither the author`s intention nor the reader`s reception but latent meaning present in the text itself.

Описание:
Strike-action has long been a notable phenomenon in Israeli society, despite forces that have weakened its recurrence, such as the Arab-Jewish conflict, the decline of organized labor, and the increasing precariousness of employment. While the impact of strikes was not always immense, they are deeply rooted in Israel's past during the Ottoman Empire and Mandate Palestine. Workers persist in using them for material improvement and to gain power in both the private and public sectors, reproducing a vibrant social practice whose codes have withstood the test of time. This book unravels the trajectory of the strikes as a rich source for the social-historical analysis of an otherwise nation-oriented and highly politicized history.
Описание: The Real Life of Sebastian Knight is one of Vladimir Nabokov`s most autobiographical novels. Sebastian`s affair with Nina Rechnoy seems to be an extension of Nabokov`s infatuation with Irina Guadanini. The novel also conceals a love affair Sebastian had with a man, reflecting an episode in the life of Nabokov`s brother Sergey.
