This collection is the first to offer a genuinely interdisciplinary approach to Krzysztof Kie?lowski’s Decalogue, a ten-film cycle of modern tales that touch on the ethical dilemmas of the Ten Commandments. The cycle’s deft handling of moral ambiguity and inventive technique established Kie?lowski as a major international director. Kie?lowski once said, “Both the deep believer and the habitual skeptic experience toothaches in exactly the same way.” Of Elephants and Toothaches takes seriously the range of thought, from theological to skeptical, condensed in the cycle’s quite human tales. Bringing together scholars of film, philosophy, literature, and several religions, the volume ranges from individual responsibility, to religion in modernity, to familial bonds, to human desire and material greed. It explores Kie?lowski’s cycle as it relentlessly solicits an ethical response that stimulates both inner disquiet and interpersonal dialogue.
Автор: Krzysztof Mokwa Stanislaw Название: Kawasaki Ki-61 Hien ISBN: 8366148491 ISBN-13(EAN): 9788366148499 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 17940.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: The Kawasaki Ki-61 Hien (flying swallow) was designed to use the licensed copy of the German Daimler-Benz 601 engine, manufactured in Japan as Ha-40 by Kawasaki's Akashi motor plant. It was planned to create two airframes - a heavily armed Ki-60 intended for offensive operations at low and medium ceilings, as well as a more agile and lightly armed Ki-61.
Although the construction of the Ki-60 was considered a priority and work on it started a few months earlier, the Ki-61 contained the conclusions from the unsuccessful Ki-60 tests. Ultimately, the younger fighter entered the service.
The Ki-61 engine mounting was constructed as an integral part of the fuselage, so it was only possible to remove the top and bottom covers, which was quite an unique solution. There were ammunition boxes behind the engine firewall for two 12.7 mm Ho-103 machine guns. It was a relatively light weapon, but very fast-firing. The supply of ammunition was only 250 rounds for a barell. The weaponry was supplemented by a pair of wing machine guns or cannons (depending on the version). The pilot was protected by an armored windscreen and a 13 mm thick steel plate behind the seat. The engine and oil radiators were placed under the fuselage

Описание: Su-24 (Fencer) is a Soviet jet bomber with variable-geometry wings. The aircraft was supposed to be a response to the American F-111, and therefore it's structurally similar. Su-24 can operate in any weather conditions, also at night. It was designed to carry tactical nuclear weapons.
In the 1960s, the military command of the Soviet Union set requirements for a new attack aircraft that would be able to operate despite strong ant-aircraft defense of NATO troops. An aircraft was expected to fly on a very low altitude at a very high speeds. Initially, it was based on Su-7 and Su-15 airframes, but due to the decision to use variable-geometry wing, it was necessary to build a completely new structure. Variable geometry allowed to achieve high speeds while maintaining good takeoff and landing characteristics. This is how Su-24 was born.
The first prototype was flown on July 2, 1967 (marked as T6-1), and the second on January 17, 1970 (T6-2I). Variable-geometry wings were only used in the second prototype. In December 1971, the first serial Su-24 was built, but due to the prolonged acceptance tests (lasting until 1974), the aircraft officially did not become operational until February 1975. Su-24 was named Fencer in the NATO code.

Описание: With The Life of Reason in an Age of Terrorism, Charles Padron and Kris Skowronski (editors) gather together a broad assortment of contributions that address the germaneness of George Santayana’s (1863-1952) social and political thought to the world of the early twenty-first century in general, and specifically to the phenomenon of terrorism.The essays treat a broad range of philosophical and historical concerns: the life of reason, the philosophy of the everyday, fanaticism, liberalism, barbarism, egoism, and relativism. The essays reflect a wide range of viewpoints and perspectives, but all coalesce around discussions of how Santayana’s thought fits in with and enhances an understanding of both our challenging times, and our uncertain future.Contributors are: Cayetano Estebanez, Matthew Caleb Flamm, Nora Horvath, Jacquelyn Ann Kegley, Till Kinzel, Katarzyna Kremplewska, John Lachs, Jose Beltran Llavador, Eduardo Mendieta, Daniel Moreno Moreno, Luka Nikolic, Charles Padron, Giuseppe Patella, Daniel Pinkas, Herman Saatkamp, Jr., Matteo Santarelli, Krzysztof Piotr Skowronski and Andres Tutor.

Описание: In January 1945, after a battle lasting one week, the German occupation of Bydgoszcz ended, and Soviet and Polish troops took over the city as a result of this violent clash. This book describes the activities of Polish and Soviet forces as well as the often overlooked German side. The Battle of Bydgoszcz has proven more important and more bloody than previously thought and helped to open access to Berlin, capital of the Third Reich, the conquest of which would end the struggles of the Second World War.This book demonstrates that the fights were bloody and caused the death of several times more people than the tragic events of the first days of September 1939. The author has devoted many years of study to the area and the archives concerning the struggle for Bydgoszcz in 1945, and his familiarity with the area brings personal insight to this work.

Описание: The Alexander Romance is a difficult text to define and to assess justly. The papers assembled in this volume form a cohesive set of approaches to the delicate positioning of the text between history and literature. The Romance began as a history, but only by becoming literature could it achieve such a deep penetration of east and west.
