Kobieta, sztuka i kolonizacja. Wizerunki kobiet w strefie kontaktu indyjsko-brytyjskiego by DOROTA KAMIŃSKA-JONES Pdf

Książka dr Doroty Kamińskiej-Jones pomyślana została jako analiza wizerunków kobiet stworzonych w złożonej przestrzeni kontaktu indyjsko-brytyjskiego, jaki zachodził od początków wieku XVII do połowy XX w., ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem prac pochodzących z drugiej połowy XVIII w. i wieku XIX. […] Autorka łączy w rozprawie warsztat historyka sztuki z metodologiami stosowanymi w szeroko pojmowanych badaniach kulturowych, w tym przede wszystkim odwołując się do dyskursu postkolonialnego i feministyczno-genderowego. Prezentowane analizy zostały starannie osadzone we właściwym im kontekście historycznym i społeczno-kulturowym, dając wyraz pogłębionemu rozumieniu analizowanych przedstawień. […] Decyzja dotycząca wyboru takiej właśnie perspektywy badawczej okazała się jak najbardziej właściwa, pozwoliła bowiem na optymalną realizację zakładanych celów. Jej rezultatem jest niezwykle interesująca rozprawa o interdyscyplinarnym charakterze. Za pośrednictwem analizy wizerunków kobiet oferuje ona nowe spojrzenie na sztukę i kulturę indyjską oraz brytyjską okresu kolonialnego, odkrywając złożoną rolę kobiet w procesie kolonizacji. […] Stosownie ilustrowany tekst jako całość czyta się z wielkim zainteresowaniem, po prostu (!) jako dobrze napisaną książkę, co wcale nie jest regułą na polskim rynku wydawnictw naukowych. […] Cechuje ją wysokiej próby wartość naukowa, będąca rezultatem dużej wnikliwości i staranności Autorki w zgłębianiu badanego tematu, zarówno w zakresie dzieł sztuki, jak i bardzo obszernej literatury przedmiotu. Ma również nieocenioną wartość poznawczą, tak istotną w czasach zglobalizowanej, natężonej wymiany myśli i różnych form ludzkiej działalności, w tym właśnie sztuki, w warunkach, gdy nie tylko w naszej części świata nadal wyraźnie odczuwalny jest niedostatek wiedzy na temat kultur pozaeuropejskich w ogóle, a tradycji artystycznych w szczególności. Omawiana praca z całą pewnością będzie służyła wyrównaniu tych naukowych zaniedbań. Z recenzji prof. dr hab. Danuty Stasik

Iranian Intellectuals and the West by Mehrzad Boroujerdi Pdf

Mehrzad Boroujerdi challenges the way many Americans perceive present-day Iran as well as how Iranians view the West. He examines the works of thinkers seminal in defining modern Iran (virtually unknown in the U.S.) and concludes that Islam was not the primary source of their inspiration. Their efforts forge an "authentic" national identity lay at the heart of Iranian thought. These intellectuals (both religious and secular) appropriated Islam as the vehicle through which they could most effectively challenge or accommodate modernity and Westernization. Through such a fitting appropriation, Boroujerdi asserts, could modern Iranian thinkers lay the foundation for a nativist vision of an unsullied culture, seemingly free of Western influence. Drawing on the works of Michel Foucault and Edward Said, this book explore how Iranians use their own misunderstandings about the West to form their own identity and, in return, how Westerns describe Iran in negative terms to help them reaffirm the superiority of their own culture. Boroujerdi also argues that Iranian intellectuals have been deeply indebted to Western thought, which has served as the cultural reference through which they continue to struggle with issues of identity and selfhood.

More science, ethics, culture for the modern and future world by Bogdan Jacek Góralski Pdf

Chinese history is written by changes in the price of rice - the basic Chinese cereal. Each major increase in rice prices was preceded by a period of low prices in which agricultural property was concentrated in the hands of huge landowners. Then always followed a price increase causing social discontent and the outbreak of popular uprisings that changing the Chinese authorities. Then happen deconcentrating of land ownership by dividing landowners' agricultural assets between starving crowds of people and the rule of the new dynasty. And so the elites ruling China change from the rise in rice prices to the next rise. As a result of the recent People's Revolution in China in the early 1980s, there was another deconcentrating in agricultural ownership due to the global rise in food prices. The land possessed for many years by rural communist communes was transferred to Chinese peasants, and so far there is no shortage of food in China because 800 million producers produce it very effectively. Unfortunately, another global climate change is coming, which will increase global food prices. I am writing below about the causes of this future climate and food disaster.

A Great and Terrible King by Marc Morris Pdf

This is the first major biography for a generation of a truly formidable king. Edward I is familiar to millions as 'Longshanks', conqueror of Scotland and nemesis of Sir William Wallace ('Braveheart'). Edward was born to rule England, but believed that it was his right to rule all of Britain. His reign was one of the most dramatic of the entire Middle Ages, leading to war and conquest on an unprecedented scale, and leaving a legacy of division that has lasted from his day to our own. In his astonishingly action-packed life, Edward defeated and killed the famous Simon de Montfort in battle; travelled across Europe to the Holy Land on crusade; conquered Wales, extinguishing forever its native rulers, and constructed - at Conwy, Harlech, Beaumaris and Caernarfon - the most magnificent chain of castles ever created. After the death of his first wife he erected the Eleanor Crosses - the grandest funeral monuments ever fashioned for an English monarch.

A History Of Scotland by Neil Oliver Pdf

The dramatic story of Scotland - by charismatic television historian, Neil Oliver. Scotland is one of the oldest countries in the world with a vivid and diverse past. Yet the stories and figures that dominate Scottish history - tales of failure, submission, thwarted ambition and tragedy - often badly serve this great nation, overshadowing the rich tapestry of her intricate past. Historian Neil Oliver presents a compelling new portrait of Scottish history, peppered with action, high drama and centuries of turbulence that have helped to shape modern Scotland. Along the way, he takes in iconic landmarks and historic architecture; debunks myths surrounding Scotland's famous sons; recalls forgotten battles; charts the growth of patriotism; and explores recent political developments, capturing Scotland's sense of identity and celebrating her place in the wider world.

The Third Way between capitalism and communism by Bogdan Góralski Pdf

The French Revolution, conducted under the slogans of "Equality, Freedom, and Brotherhood," was a social protest against the unfair mechanisms of inheritance, which enabled through arranged marriages, create huge feudal estates. In the French Revolution, feudalism was abolished, and the principles of inheritance remained unchanged. It allowed the gathering, by arranged marriages, of huge capitalist fortunes. Marx's communism and the Russian and Chinese Revolution were directed in reality against the mechanisms of inheritance and introduced to the economy the state property. State property could not be taken over for inheritance. The Russian and Chinese Revolutions broke down, and private property was restored in the economy, which resulted in the creation of many enormous privates fortunes. The problem of inheritance these vast fortunes has arisen again.

The new look at the Earth's climate mechanism by Bogdan Góralski Pdf

Is the Earth's climate getting warmer? My research shows that indeed the atmosphere and hydrosphere of the northern hemisphere warmed up during XIX-XXI centuries but the southern hemisphere getting colder. However, this warming of the northern hemisphere is not caused by excessive carbon dioxide emission caused by the developing human civilization, but is caused by the gravitational-magnetic influences of the Solar System on the rotating Earth as a result of which the outer layer of the Earth's rotates. Being in the move the Earth's coating changes its position relative to the ecliptic plane and along with its movement, over surface of the Earth's, is the shift of the zones of life-giving rainfalls that are stable relative to ecliptic plane. This results in a global economic and social events in the form of regional crises in areas affected by the drought or excessive precipitation. Physical phenomena related to the movement of the Earth's coating and evidence of the occurrence of this phenomenon are presented in the following work. My theory about the movement of the earth's coating is confirmed by the book of Charles Hapgood (1957) entitled "Earth's Shifting Crust" to which the foreword was written by Albert Einstein link: https://archive.org/stream/eathsshiftingcru033562mbp/eathsshiftingcru033562mbp_djvu.txt Jakuszowice, 27 July 2019, 15: 10 Bogdan Góralski
