Описание: Synopsis: Religion is commonly viewed through the lens of the world's religious traditions, stressing the differences, and often the conflicts, among them. The author of this book instead presents religion as a common and universal human phenomenon, based deeply in a human nature shared by all. In this view, the underlining and unifying principle of religion is a particular affirmative attitude toward life, which he presents as the Ultimate Value, and as such the key cultural constituent and defining factor of all religion. This Ultimate Value finds its expressions in various civilizations, and results in a variety of forms; these are what we know as the world's religious traditions. By analyzing the roles of both culture and civilization in their attitudes toward life, the author places religion beyond religious traditions, and shows how the latter, regardless of whether they are theistic or atheistic, draw their principles from the former, mainly by promoting the Golden Rule in its applications. Endorsements: "Wojciech Zalewski's synthesis of religions . . . presents] a Rousseau-like view that human beings are fundamentally good, born with a desire and respect for life, which becomes perverted by the institutions of their civilization. The evidence that he is right lies in the countless acts of goodness performed by individuals in their daily life apart from, and sometimes in opposition to, the norms of their societies. The Crucible of Religion is an uplifting and hopeful book by a true humanitarian." --Kenneth R. Graham Professor Emeritus Muhlenberg College "Zalewski examines religion as a personal and social construct based on the human yearning for life . . . By differentiating culture from civilization he is able to distinguish between religion as such and various religious traditions . . ., and in so doing to recast the discussion of God in terms of the affirmation of life implemented through the practice of the Golden Rule . . . By equating life with God, Zalewski opens a dialogue among agnostics, atheists, and believers. --Thomas Sheehan Professor of Religious Studies Stanford University Author Biography: Wojciech Maria Zalewski is the Curator for Slavic and East European Collections Emeritus and Bibliographer for Religious Studies at the Stanford University Libraries. He is the author of Untersuchungen uber the literarische Gattung der Apokalypse 1-3.
Автор: Jagielski, Wojciech Название: All Lara`s Wars ISBN: 1644210169 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781644210161 Издательство: Random House (USA) Рейтинг: Цена: 14680.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: The true story of one woman's journey after her sons joined ISIS. "A painfully authentic account, told with sensitivity and literary artistry." --Magdalena Kicińska In All Lara's Wars, the great events of the last half-century--the realignment of Eastern Europe after the fall of the Soviet Union, and the rise in the Middle East of ISIS and its quest for a new Caliphate--converge in this account of a Chechen-Georgian family whose two sons become radicalized, and how their mother--Lara--travels to Syria by bus and at great risk, not to join them but to bring them home. By then, the older son is a high level commander and the younger son a respected soldier in ISIS's army. The story is told with a sense of wonder at the contemporary world and all the ways it resembles a primitive and violent land where all struggles are to the death, and there is an epic battle going on between forces of good and evil that cannot be understood other than as mythic and larger than life. Lara is a Kist--one of a tiny ethnicity that crossed the Caucasus mountains a century ago to settle in the remote Pankisi Gorge in northern Georgia, a peaceful and isolated paradise. She married a Chechen, moved to Grozny, and became the mother of two sons. When war came to Chechnya, she took her children home to the safe Georgian valley, and later sent them to Western Europe to live with their father--to protect them from the influence of the radical Islamic freedom fighters who had come to the Pankisi Gorge as refugees from the Chechnyan wars. As in all of Wojciech Jagielski's books, he tells here the story of any modern war, how the individual lives of civilians and combatants are obliterated in the sweep of the larger narrative--and how the humanity of these individual lives is revealed, and the price paid in human endurance and persistence and loss. Jagielski observes, listening to Lara and letting her story emerge through the filter of his literary skill. This unusual reportage tells us the facts of the Chechnyan wars and the reality of the Syrian war from the viewpoint of ISIS recruits, but it is also the true account of one ordinary family that became part of the larger tragedy that has claimed so many victims in recent years.

I learned a few tips and tricks even I hadn't known! Nathan has done a fantastic job compiling information and making it understandable for everyone! I highly recommend it to others!" - J.V. Krakowski, psychic teacher."Interested a book on psychic development that's different from all of the rest? Try Nathan's new e-book, Psychic Development Simplified and you won't be disappointed.(...)As a professional intuitive, I found myself nodding my head along with him in the "How To" do a psychic reading section. (...) I found myself puzzling over them somewhat not only as I was learning some new things, but also as I recognized that there were a number of things I do automatically in a reading that I didn't really learn anywhere that Nathan puts a name to and teaches you how to do - invaluable. (...)Nathan uses easy to understand "everyday" analogies to explain complex topics. He is straightforward and calls it like he sees it. You can trust his judgement when he gives you advice on how to think about the process and not to overwhelm or overload yourself, but instead to take it easy and at your own pace. Some of the advice he gives in snippets thrown out here and there are simply priceless and will resonate with everyone, no matter what your intuitive style or belief system. (...)It is dense, extensively informative, and something that I would liken to a Psychic Encyclopedia. My take on this is that it could in itself be considered a fairly comprehensive course. The perspective is unique, and just different enough to make even a seasoned psychic or intuitive reconsider their position on some things." - Julie Barrett, professional psychic intuitive."(...) I had the good fortune of being able to read "Psychic Development Simplified" and am so glad I did. I was a little daunted at first by the number of pages, but once I settled in to read, it was hard to put it down. It is exactly as the title states - simplified. One of the best pieces of information I learned was that not everyone has the same gifts, but you have the ability to learn others. Before I started reading, I had visions in my head about turban wearing shrunken ladies with long fingernails and a crystal ball; I was extremely happy to find out this is not a realistic thought and true psychics are every day people with every day lives. Another great point about this book are the theories that are discussed in full detail before each practical activity. I like a little knowledge and/or history before I dive into something and that is exactly what Nathan provided. The practical exercises were easy to understand and attempt throughout the entire book. I'm so thankful for my new knowledge that I can't wait to re-read and continue practicing. I would highly recommend this for all levels of learning and practicing psychics." - Jennifer, a psychic in training.Get your copy today, and unleash your psychic potential

Описание: The different theoretical notions and practices of the relations between the state and religious communities in early modern Europe constitute one of the most interesting problems in historiography. Moving away from a simple «toleration» versus «non-toleration» dichotomy, the author sets out to analyse the inter-confessional relations in selected European territories in a «longue duree» perspective, between Reformation and Enlightenment. Outlining the relations between the state and the different Churches (confessions) in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Holy Roman Empire of Germany, and the Northern Netherlands serves to highlight the specificity of Northern Netherlands serves to highlight the specificity of «free» (non-absolutist) composite states, where the particularly complex process of defining the raison d’etat determined the level of religious toleration that was politically feasible and socially acceptable.

This book presents the legal institutions involved in cultural heritage protection from a Polish point of view. Its authors set out the legal framework of cultural management in the context of private and public law. They analyse the Anglo-Saxon concept of trusts, fideicommissum set up by aristocratic families and, in the Polish legal system, foundations and property law. The authors research these institutions in terms of their ability to secure valuable cultural property selected for its artistic, historic and cultural qualities and of their effectiveness in doing so. They also outline a model of economic heritage management putting forward proposals for its future operation.
This book explores the influence of culture and cognition on translation and communication and brings together revised versions of papers delivered at the First International TransLingua Conference, organized in 2015 by the Institute of Modern Languages and Applied Linguistics and the Department of English at Kazimierz Wielki University in Bydgoszcz, Poland. The volume investigates various languages and cultures (including Japanese, Hungarian, English, Czech, Polish, German and Swahili) and examines a range of linguistic and translation issues from a micro-scale perspective. Alongside these case studies, it also includes reflections by two internationally renowned scholars, El?bieta Tabakowska and Zolt?n K?vecses, on the interplay between language, culture and cognition and the influence of collective and individual memory on translation.

Автор: Wojciech Wachowski Название: Towards a Better Understanding of Metonymy ISBN: 1788743458 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781788743457 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 71900.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
The general aim of this book is to contribute to a better understanding of metonymy, a phenomenon which still, despite the current upsurge in scholarly attention, remains puzzling in some respects. The theoretical framework of this book is provided by the school of thought commonly known as Cognitive Linguistics. The first part of the book analyses and develops various hypotheses concerning the nature of metonymy advanced in the literature to date. It presents numerous arguments in favour of the conceptual rather than purely linguistic basis of metonymy and shows that metonymy is a ubiquitous phenomenon not only in language but above all in thought. The second part contains a thorough analysis of the constraints to the scope of metonymy and discusses the differences between metonymy and other forms of so-called figurative language. The third part is devoted to the role and importance of metonymy in communication and focuses on the creative functions of metonymy, which have received surprisingly little scholarly attention to date, such as euphemism, vague language, and humour. The fourth part of this book is centred on some problematic issues concerning the distinction between metonymy, metaphor, and synecdoche.
Автор: Wojciech Chojna Название: Roman Ingarden`s Philosophy of Literature: A Phenomenological Account ISBN: 9004357122 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004357129 Издательство: Brill Цена: 65090.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: In Roman Ingarden’s Philosophy of Literature Wojciech Chojna discusses Ingarden’s theory of literary works and develops a phenomenological account of identity which accommodates differences in interpretations and value judgments without succumbing to relativism. The latter is overcome not through falling back on essentialism but from within relativism.Literature offers us diverse experiences changing our perceptions of ourselves and the worlds we live in. Absolutism proclaiming unmitigated access to the meaning of literary texts is intolerant of differences and leads to violence in life. Conversely, relativism, in the illusory spirit of radical tolerance, turns meanings and values into historically contingent, incompatible interpretations, where communication and reconciliation is impossible, thus justifying ideological conflicts and violence.
