Описание: The exploration of what May Sarton calls the "foreign country of old age" usually does not go far beyond the familiar: the focus of aging studies has thus far clearly rested upon North America and Western Europe. This multi-disciplinary essay collection critically examines conditions and representations of old age and aging in Eastern and Southeastern Europe from various perspectives of the humanities and social sciences. By shedding light on these culturally specific contexts, the contributions widen our understanding of the aging process in all its diversity and demonstrate that a shift in perspectives might in fact challenge a number of taken-for-granted positions and presumptions of aging studies.

Автор: James O`Neill, Charles Royster Название: Garrison Tales from Tonquin: An American`s Stories of the French Foreign Legion in Vietnam in the 1890s ISBN: 0807171751 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780807171752 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 25080.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The thought of enlisting in the French Foreign Legion held a tantalizing allure for young nineteenth-century American boys in search of adventure. Born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, James O'Neill enlisted in the legion in 1887, at the age of twenty-seven. In 1890, deployed to Tonquin in French Indochina (more familiar today as Tonkin, Vietnam), O'Neill faced tropical heat, infectious disease, and sudden death. Like his contemporary Stephen Crane, O'Neill's ability to recount an engaging story and his keen sense for telling details provide a unique record of his time in this exotic world. In these thirteen ""tales,"" O'Neill shows—with surprising subtlety—that France's efforts to conquer and govern Indochina were foolhardy. Although the only American in his stories is the narrator, it is clear the tales are aimed at readers in the United States and intended to caution against the construction of empires abroad. Far from polemical tirades, these absorbing, unadorned stories read as remarkably contemporary in both style and substance. Historian Charles Royster provides a short biography of O'Neill and the text of two long-forgotten essays O'Neill published in magazines of the time, one a description of a Buddhist temple in Hanoi and the other an appreciation of the Hungarian novelist Maurus Jókai. Whether read for historical value, literary merit, or political insights, Garrison Tales from Tonquin is a true discovery.
Автор: Thede Kahl, Aleksandra Salamurovic Название: Das Erbe der Slawenapostel im 21. Jahrhundert / The Legacy of the Apostles of the Slavs in the 21st Century: Nationale und europaeische Perspektiven / National and European Perspectives ISBN: 3631659113 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783631659113 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 78710.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Die Heiligen Kyrill und Method spielen durch ihre Bibel?bersetzung und die Schaffung eines slawischen (glagolitischen) Alphabets eine herausragende Rolle f?r die religi?se, kulturelle und nationale Identit?t der Slawen. Die Beitr?ge dieses Bandes aus Kultur-, Literatur- und Sprachwissenschaft setzen sich mit dem geistigen Erbe der Slawenapostel im 21. Jahrhundert auseinander. Dabei stehen Erinnerungsdiskurse und die Schriftfrage im Mittelpunkt des Interesses. Die zahlreichen Funktionen ihres Erbes – Integration, Emanzipation und Abgrenzung – zeigen eine durchgehende Dynamik zwischen s?dslawischen, allgemein slawischen und europ?ischen Entwicklungslinien, die bis ins das 21. Jahrhundert wirken. Somit ist die Auseinandersetzung mit ihrem kulturellen Erbe noch lange nicht ersch?pft. The saints Cyril and Methodius play a prominent role for the religious, cultural and national aspects of Slavic identity owing to their translation of the Bible and the creation of a Slavic (Glagolitic) alphabet. The contributions to this volume, from the fields of cultural, literary and linguistic studies, discuss the spiritual legacy of the Slavic Apostles in the 21st century. The countless roles of their legacy (integration, emancipation, differentiation) demonstrate continuous dynamics between south Slavic, general Slavic and European lines of development that continue to operate in the 21st century. Thus, the debate on their cultural legacy has not yet been fully exhausted.

Описание: This collection investigates the concept of modernity in music and its multiple interpretations in Europe and Asia. Through contributions by both European and Asian musicologists it discusses how a decentered understanding of musical modernity could be matched on multiple historiographical perspectives while attentive to the specificities of local music and their narratives in Asia and Europe. The essays connect local, global and transnational history with sociological theories of modernity and modernization, making the volume an important contribution to overcoming the Eurocentric dichotomy between western music and world music within the field of historical musicology.
