In the Far Away Mountains and Rivers

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Quinn, Joseph L. / Yamanouchi, Midori / T Odai Gakusei Jichikai, PUBLISHER: University of Scranton Press, The impact of "Harukanaru Sanga ni" upon its publication in was immediate and dramatic- -the impetus, many have argued, for a post-war peace movement in Japan that has lasted over half a century. Now the text is available for the first time in English as "In the Far Away Mountains and Rivers," a heart-wrenching and thought-provoking collection of letters, journal entries, and essays written by University of Tokyo students as they were drafted to fight in World War II. Many of these students faced certain death as pilots in the kamikaze squads. Many of them deplored the war, and many were simply motivated by a sense of duty to their families and their country. They turned to poetry, philosophy, and religion--all in an attempt to make sense of the universal tragedy of war. Acquista Ora

Names

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hacker, Marilyn, PUBLISHER: W. W. Norton & Company, In Names, Marilyn Hacker juxtaposes glimpses of contemporary lives with dialogues undertaken in signal poetic voices. Using her signature wit, passion, and mastery of received and invented forms, she convinces us to believe in a world made possible by language-prescient, playful, polyglot, and often breathtaking. from "Ghazal: The Beloved": Lines that grapple doubt, written because of the beloved: when grief subsides, what survives the loss of the beloved? Your every declaration is suspect. That was, at least, the departing gloss of the beloved. Were you merely a servant of the state or (now you give the coin a toss) of the beloved? How pure you were, resistant in an orchard. Peace with justice: the cause of the beloved. Acquista Ora

French Philosophy in the Twentieth Century

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gutting, Gary, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, In this book Gary Gutting tells, clearly and comprehensively, the story of French philosophy from to . He examines the often neglected background of spiritualism, university idealism, and early philosophy of science, and also discusses the privileged role of philosophy in the French education system. Taking account of this background, together with the influences of avant-garde literature and German philosophy, he develops a rich account of existential phenomenology, which he argues is the central achievement of French thought during the century, and of subsequent structuralist and poststructuralist developments. Gary Gutting is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame and a leading authority on the work of Michel Foucault. In addition to continental philosophy, he has done important work in philosophy of science and philosophy of religion. Gutting is the author of several books, including Michel Foucault's Archaeology of Scientific Knowledge (Cambridge, ), Pragmatic Liberalism and the Critique of Modernity (Cambridge, ), and the editor of The Cambridge Companion to Foucault (Cambridge, ).

The Congressman's Civil War

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bogue, Allan G. / Fogel, Robert / Thernstrom, Stephan, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, In the historical literature on the Civil War, the President, the generals, and the cabinet secretaries have won the war of words. Of the hundreds of men who served in the House of Representatives during this great struggle, only a handful typically appear in general discussions of the period. Yet without a deeper understanding of the contributions of the members of the Congress to the successful prosecution of the war, we cannot fully appreciate the desperate nature of that war and its significance in the building of the nation. This book explores important aspects of the Civil War from the perspective of Capitol Hill. It is an effort to survey some of the possibilities for understanding the congressmen, their relations with each other, and their interaction with President Lincoln.

Lincoln's Speeches Reconsidered

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Briggs, John Channing, PUBLISHER: Johns Hopkins University Press, Throughout the fractious years of the mid-nineteenth century, Abraham Lincoln's speeches imparted reason and guidance to a troubled nation. Lincoln's words were never universally praised. But they resonated with fellow legislators and the public, especially when he spoke on such volatile subjects as mob rule, temperance, the Mexican War, slavery and its expansion, and the justice of a war for freedom and union. In this close examination, John Channing Briggs reveals how the process of studying, writing, and delivering speeches helped Lincoln develop the ideas with which he would so profoundly change history. Briggs follows Lincoln's thought process through a careful chronological reading of his oratory, ranging from Lincoln's speech to the Springfield Lyceum to his second inaugural address. Recalling David Herbert Donald's celebrated revisionist essays (Lincoln Reconsidered, ), Briggs's study provides students of Lincoln with new insight into his words, intentions, and image.

The First House: Myth, Paradigm, and the Task of

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dripps, R. D., PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), In the first century B.C., Vitruvius Pollio narrated a myth of the origins of dwelling. In a forest clearing, previously isolated and savage people gathered about the embers of a dying fire; from this gathering emerged political institutions, human language, and the construction of permanent shelters. R. D. Dripps finds in this story the foundation of an extensive theory of architecture still able to offer guideposts for architectural practice. Against any tendency toward theoretical disengagement or self-referentiality, Dripps argues that architecture must continue to address important political, cultural, and ecological issues. Ultimately, the role of architecture is to provide the structures that enable us to interpret the world and make it habitable.
