Book Synopsis The Ages of Two-faced Janus by : Tabitta Van Nouhuys
Download or read book The Ages of Two-faced Janus written by Tabitta Van Nouhuys and published by BRILL. This book was released on 1998 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with the tracts - Latin and vernacular - published in the Netherlands on the comets of 1577 and 1618. Central to the book is the question of how these cometary appearances influenced the Aristotelian world view. This is the first lengthy examination of the decline of Aristotelian cosmology in the Netherlands. Its demonstration of the connection between cosmological and political views renders the book useful to historians of general Dutch history, as well as historians of science.

Book Synopsis Etruria and the Origins of the Etruscans by : Giovanni Caselli
Download or read book Etruria and the Origins of the Etruscans written by Giovanni Caselli and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2022-07-21 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a contribution to Etruscan archaeology stemming from the belief that, because of the lack of written records, the historian and the archaeologist must step in to become shrewd detectives and inspect the scene of the crime to obtain evidence of the facts. It looks minutely at the material evidence on the ground during the day and at night, displaying graphically the evidence and showing the reader the resulting facts and possible new interpretations. Breaking the bounds of common place perceptions, it presents an entirely fresh image of Etruria that has been overlooked, one deeply rooted in the land and natural environment.

Book Synopsis Cultural Histories of Ageing by : Margery Vibe Skagen
Download or read book Cultural Histories of Ageing written by Margery Vibe Skagen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-12 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on sixteenth- to twenty-first-century American, British, French, German, Polish, Norwegian and Russian literature and philosophy, this collection teases out culturally specific conceptions of old age as well as subjective constructions of late-life identity and selfhood. The internationally known humanistic gerontologist Jan Baars, the prominent historian of old age David Troyansky and the distinguished cultural historian and pioneer in the field of literature and science George Rousseau join a team of literary historians who trace out the interfaces between their chosen texts and the respective periods’ medical and gerontological knowledge. The chapters’ in-depth analyses of major and less-known works demonstrate the rich potential of fiction, poetry and autobiographical writing in the construction of a cultural history of senescence. These literary examples not only bear witness to longue durée representations of old age, and epochal transitions regarding cultural attitudes to the aged; they also foreground the subjectivities that produced some of these representations and that continue to communicate with readers of other times and places. By casting a net over a variety of authors, genres, periods and languages, the collection gives a broad sense of how literature is among the richest and most engaging sources for historicizing the ageing self.

Book Synopsis Playing with Time by : Carole Elizabeth Newlands
Download or read book Playing with Time written by Carole Elizabeth Newlands and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ovid's Fasti, unlike his Metamorphoses, is anchored in Rome: religion, history and legend, monuments, and character. The poem interprets the Augustan period not as a golden age of peace and prosperity, Carole E. Newlands asserts, but as an age of experimentation, negotiation, compromise, and unresolved tensions. Newlands maintains that, despite the Fasti's basic adherence to the format of the calendar, the text is carefully constructed to reflect the tensions within its subject: the new Roman year. Ovid plays with the calendar. Through the alteration or omission of significant dates, through skilled juxtapositions, through multiple narrators and the development of an increasingly unreliable authorial persona, Ovid opens to a critical and often humorous scrutiny the political ideology of the calendar. By adding astronomical observations and aetiological explanations for certain constellations, Newlands says, Ovid introduced the richly allusive world of Greek mythology to the calendar. Newlands restores the poem to a position of importance, one displaying Ovid's wit and intellect at its best. The incompleteness of the Fasti, she adds, is a comment on the discord that characterized Augustus' later years and led to enforced silences.
Book Synopsis The Age of Neoliberal Absolutism by : Fabio Armao
Download or read book The Age of Neoliberal Absolutism written by Fabio Armao and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-06-17 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fall of communist regimes and the end of the Cold War marked the start of a new, regressive phase of the modernization process. This book explains the genesis and the spread of this veritable new form of government termed oikocracy. It is characterised by transnational clan networks being the dominant social structures and the primacy of (private) economic interests over (public) political interests. As such, it supersedes traditional forms of government. Having originated in the most highly industrialised countries, this Neoliberal Absolutism no longer requires sophisticated ideologies or institutional propaganda, rather relying on the dynamics of a globalised world that facilitate an easy mobilization of the masses, and thereby expanding to the rest of the world. This book suggests that in response, we have to develop new principles of government antagonistic to the existing ones and avoid solutions proposed by an increasing number of Western leaders.
