Cagliari Magica. L'eco delle streghe Maghe, fattucchiere, stregoni e iniziati tra la Sardegna e l’Europa dei misteri【電子書籍】[ Pierluigi Serra ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Temute eppure cercate nei momenti del bisogno, allontanate dalla societ? ma invocate a protezione di raccolti e bestiame, streghe e maghe ? cos? come stregoni e fattucchiere ? hanno loro malgrado riempito i nostri sogni e gli incubi notturni con quell’aura negativa abilmente creata intorno a loro.<br /> Da spiriti benefici e portatori di forze generatrici, uomini e donne dalle capacit? sublimi si ritrovarono grazie ad una intensa campagna denigratoria ad essere vittime di una caccia spietata, costellata di torture e roghi. Tragedia della storia che passa a volte inosservata a causa ? molto spesso ? di un occultamento ancora in essere di atti e documenti in grado di dare l’esatta dimensione del terrore che dilag? in Europa fino alla fine del 1800.<br /> La Sardegna non fu immune dal fenomeno ed anzi fu oggetto di maggiori attenzioni per via della persistenza, in molte comunit?, di forme di paganesimo e di eresie. Numerosi fili legano l’Isola al continente, trame nascoste che seguono strade esoteriche e iniziatiche.<br /> Un viaggio, attraverso i documenti e testimonianze, che offre una chiave di lettura su un passato non tanto lontano ed un modo per ricordare donne e uomini che pagarono a caro prezzo la loro sete di conoscenza e la loro diversit?.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 920円

The Tyranny of Merit What's Become of the Common Good?【電子書籍】[ Michael J. Sandel ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**A <em>TLS</em>, <em>GUARDIAN</em> AND <em>NEW STATESMAN</em> BOOK OF THE YEAR 2020</p> <p>The new bestseller from the acclaimed author of <em>Justice</em> and one of the world's most popular philosophers**</p> <p><strong>"Astute, insightful, and empathetic...A crucial book for this moment" Tara Westover, author of <em>Educated</em></strong></p> <p>These are dangerous times for democracy. We live in an age of winners and losers, where the odds are stacked in favour of the already fortunate. Stalled social mobility and entrenched inequality give the lie to the promise that "you can make it if you try". And the consequence is a brew of anger and frustration that has fuelled populist protest, with the triumph of Brexit and election of Donald Trump.</p> <p>Michael J. Sandel argues that to overcome the polarized politics of our time, we must rethink the attitudes toward success and failure that have accompanied globalisation and rising inequality. Sandel highlights the hubris a meritocracy generates among the winners and the harsh judgement it imposes on those left behind. He offers an alternative way of thinking about success - more attentive to the role of luck in human affairs, more conducive to an ethic of humility, and more hospitable to a politics of the common good.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,755円

Learn Like a Pro Science-Based Tools to Become Better at Anything【電子書籍】[ Olav Schewe ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A book for learners of all ages containing the best and most updated advice on learning from neuroscience and cognitive psychology.</strong></p> <p>Do you spend too much time learning with disappointing results? Do you find it difficult to remember what you read? Do you put off studying because it’s boring and you’re easily distracted? This book is for you.</p> <p>Dr. Barbara Oakley and Olav Schewe have both struggled in the past with their learning. But they have found techniques to help them master any material. Building on insights from neuroscience and cognitive psychology, they give you a crash course to improve your ability to learn, no matter what the subject is. Through their decades of writing, teaching, and research on learning, the authors have developed deep connections with experts from a vast array of disciplines. And it’s all honed with feedback from thousands of students who have themselves gone through the trenches of learning. Successful learners gradually add tools and techniques to their mental toolbox, and they think critically about their learning to determine when and how to best use their mental tools. That allows these learners to make the best use of their brains, whether those brains seem “naturally” geared toward learning or not. This book will teach you how you can do the same.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,608円

The Cambridge History of the Second World War: Volume 2, Politics and Ideology【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>War is often described as an extension of politics by violent means. With contributions from twenty-eight eminent historians, Volume 2 of The Cambridge History of the Second World War examines the relationship between ideology and politics in the war's origins, dynamics and consequences. Part I examines the ideologies of the combatants and shows how the war can be understood as a struggle of words, ideas and values with the rival powers expressing divergent claims to justice and controlling news from the front in order to sustain moral and influence international opinion. Part II looks at politics from the perspective of pre-war and wartime diplomacy as well as examining the way in which neutrals were treated and behaved. The volume concludes by assessing the impact of states, politics and ideology on the fate of individuals as occupied and liberated peoples, collaborators and resistors, and as British and French colonial subjects.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 7,022円

Decolonization A Very Short Introduction【電子書籍】[ Dane Kennedy ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Millions of Africans, Asians, and other peoples were the subjects of colonial rule by overseas empires through the mid-twentieth century. By the end of the century, however, nearly all of these peoples had become citizens of independent nation-states. The United Nations grew from 51 member states at its founding in 1945 to 193 today. Its nearly four-fold increase is one measure of the historic shift in international relations that has occurred over the past half-century. Decolonization is the term commonly used to refer to this transition from a world of colonial empires to a world of nation-states in the years after World War II. Both ex-imperial states and post-colonial regimes have promoted a selective and sanitized version of decolonization that casts their own conduct in a positive light, characterizing the process as negotiated and the outcome as inevitable. This book draws on recent scholarship to challenge that view, demonstrating that considerable violence and instability accompanied the end of empire and that the outcome was often up for grabs. This book highlights three themes. The first is that global war between empires precipitated decolonization, creating the economic and political crises that gave colonial subjects the opportunity to seek independence. The second theme is that nation-state was not the only option pursued by anti-colonial activists. Many of them sought pan- and trans-national polities instead, but a combination of international and institutional pressures made the nation-state the standard template. The third theme is that the struggle to escape imperial subjugation and create nation-states generated widespread violence and produced huge refugee populations, leading to political problems that persist to the present day. By focusing on these crucial points, Dane Kennedy reminds us how the tumultuous, even tragic, changes caused by the decolonization profoundly shaped the world we live in.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 574円

Chaos Reconsidered The Liberal Order and the Future of International Politics【電子書籍】[ Jeremy Adelman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The shock of Donald Trump’s election caused many observers to ask whether the liberal international orderーthe system of institutions and norms established after World War IIーwas coming to an end. The victory of Joe Biden, a committed institutionalist, suggested that the liberal order would endure. Even so, important questions remained: Was Trump an aberration? Is Biden struggling in vain against irreparable changes in international politics? What does the future hold for the international order?</p> <p>The essays in <em>Chaos Reconsidered</em> answer those questions. Leading scholars assess the domestic and global effects of the Trump and Biden presidencies. The historians put the Trump years and Biden’s victory in historical context. Regional specialists evaluate U.S. diplomacy in Asia, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America. Others foreground topics such as global right-wing populism, the COVID-19 pandemic, racial inequality, and environmental degradation. International relations theorists reconsider the nature of international politics, pointing to deficiencies in traditional IR methods for explaining world events and Trump’s presidency in particular. Together, these experts provide a comprehensive analysis of the state of U.S. alliances and partnerships, the durability of the liberal international order, the standing and reputation of the United States as a global leader, the implications of China’s assertiveness and Russia’s aggression, and the prospects for the Biden administration and its successors.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,727円

English Comparative Correlatives Diachronic and Synchronic Variation at the Lexicon-Syntax Interface【電子書籍】[ Thomas Hoffmann ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>One of the most intriguing features of languages is that speakers can produce novel grammatical utterances that they have never heard before. Consequently, most linguists agree that the mental grammars of speakers are complex systems that must be more abstract than the input they are exposed to. Yet, linguists differ as to how general and abstract speakers' mental representations have to be to allow this grammatical creativity. This book addresses this issue by empirically investigating one specific construction, English comparative correlatives (e.g., the more you eat, the fatter you get). Drawing on authentic corpus data from Old English to Present-day English varieties around the world, it shows how input frequency and domain-general cognitive principles affect the complex mental network of constructions that underlies speakers' linguistic behaviour. This pioneering and original study will be of interest to scholars and students of English syntax and English historical linguistics.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,672円

<p>The Life and Miracles of St. William of Norwich is the medieval hagiography written in 1173. It tells the life story of a real personality, known as William of Norwich, that was supposedly tortured and killed by the Jewish community in the Medieval city of Norwich. The author of the scripture heard and recorded the story from a former Jew, Theobald of Cambridge. The story tells the life of William in the Jewish community that treated him well, at first. But later, they tortured him, mocking the Bible scenes of the crucifixion. This story by Monmouth had a significant effect. It started the intense discrimination against the Jewish community and eventually led to expelling Jews from England by King Edward I order.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 450円

Some Conditions of Child Life in England A Harrowing Look at 19th Century Child Welfare in England【電子書籍】[ Benjamin Waugh ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Some Conditions of Child Life in England," Benjamin Waugh offers a profound exploration of the social, economic, and moral dimensions affecting children in Victorian England. Drawing on a blend of empirical research and vivid narrative, Waugh examines the bleak realities faced by many children, including poverty, neglect, and the struggles within the educational system. His literary style, marked by both a passionate plea for reform and a meticulous presentation of data, situates the work within the burgeoning social reform movements of the time, positioning it as crucial reading for those interested in the intersection of child welfare and historical context. Benjamin Waugh, a prominent child welfare advocate and founder of the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC), was profoundly influenced by his own experiences witnessing societal injustices. His commitment to improving child welfare was molded by a Victorian society that often marginalized its youngest members. Waugh's background as a writer and social reformer deeply informed his critical approach, directing his focus toward legislative change and public awareness. This book is essential for historians, sociologists, and anyone invested in the development of child welfare reform. Waugh's rigorous analysis and passionate argumentation illuminate the pressing need for societal change, making this work both a historical document and a clarion call for contemporary readers to reflect on ongoing issues in child welfare.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 310円

Professor Royce's Libel A Public Appeal for Redress to the Corporation and Overseers of Harvard University【電子書籍】[ Francis Ellingwood Abbot ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Professor Royce's Libel," Francis Ellingwood Abbot presents a thought-provoking critique of the philosophical arguments posed by Josiah Royce, particularly his views on idealism and the nature of reality. Abbot employs a polemical and incisive literary style, drawing on a rich tradition of American pragmatism while setting his own perspectives against Royce's elaborate constructs. The book navigates complex philosophical waters, engaging rigorously with metaphysical issues and the implications of idealism in contemporary thought, positioning Abbot as a significant voice in the philosophical landscape of his time. Francis Ellingwood Abbot, a leading figure in the American transcendental movement and an advocate for pragmatic philosophy, was deeply influenced by the philosophical currents of the late 19th century.

The Supreme Court and Constitutional Democracy【電子書籍】[ John Agresto ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In <em>The Supreme Court and Constitutional Democracy</em> John Agresto traces the development of American judicial power, paying close attention to what he views as the very real threat of judicial supremacy. Agresto examines the role of the judiciary in a democratic society and discusses the proper place of congressional power in constitutional issues. Agresto argues that while the separation of congressional and judicial functions is a fundamental tenet of American government, the present system is not effective in maintaining an appropriate balance of power. He shows that continued judicial expansion, especially into the realm of public policy, might have severe consequences for America's national life and direction, and offers practical recommendations for safeguarding against an increasingly powerful Supreme Court. John Agresto's controversial argument, set in the context of a historical and theoretical inquiry, will be of great interest to scholars and students in political science and law, especially American constitutional law and political theory.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,013円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Each volume of this series of companions to major philosophers contains specially commissioned essays by an international team of scholars, together with a substantial bibliography, and will serve as a reference work for students and non-specialists. One aim of the series is to dispel the intimidation such readers often feel when faced with the work of a difficult and challenging thinker. Plotinus was the greatest philosopher in the 700-year period between Aristotle and Augustine. He thought of himself as a disciple of Plato, but in his efforts to defend Platonism against Aristotelians, Stoics, and others, he actually produced a reinvigorated version of Platonism that later came to be known as 'Neoplatonism'. In this volume, sixteen leading scholars introduce and explain the many facets of Plotinus' complex system. They place Plotinus in the history of ancient philosophy while showing that he was a founder of medieval philosophy.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,078円
