A World Art History And Its Objects By David Carrier 2008 | 200 Pages | ISBN: 0271034149 | PDF | 4 MB Is writing a world art history possible? Does the history of art as such even exist outside the Western tradition? Is it possible to consider the history of art in a way that is not fundamentally Eurocentric? In this highly readable and provocative book, David Carrier, a philosopher and art historian, does not attempt to write a world art history himself. Rather, he asks the question of how an art history of all cultures could be written - or whether it is even possible to do so. He also engages the political and moral issues raised by the idea of a multicultural art history. Focusing on a consideration of intersecting artistic traditions, Carrier negotiates the way meaning and understanding shift or are altered when a visual object from one culture, for example, is inserted into the visual tradition of another culture. "A World Art History and Its Objects" proposes the use of temporal narrative as a way to begin to understand a multicultural art history.  Douglas Ward, "A New Brand of Business: Charles Coolidge Parlin, Curtis Publishing Company, and the Origins of Market Research" English | ISBN: 1439900159 | 2009 | 240 pages | PDF | 903 KB Charles Coolidge Parlin was considered by many to be the founder of market research. Working for the dominant Curtis Publishing Company, he revolutionized the industry by providing added value to advertisers through information about the racial, ethnic, and regional biases of readers and consumers. By maintaining contact with both businesses and customers, Parlin and Curtis publications were able to turn consumer wants into corporate profits.  A Culture of Fact: England, 1550-1720 By Barbara J. Shapiro 2003 | 149 Pages | ISBN: 0801436869 | PDF | 14 MB Barbara J. Shapiro traces the surprising genesis of the "fact," a modern concept that, she convincingly demonstrates, originated not in natural science but in legal discourse. She follows the concept's evolution and diffusion across a variety of disciplines in early modern England, examining how the emerging "culture of fact" shaped the epistemological assumptions of each intellectual enterprise. Drawing on an astonishing breadth of research, Shapiro probes the fact's changing identity from an alleged human action to a proven natural or human happening. The crucial first step in this transition occurred in the sixteenth century when English common law established a definition of fact which relied on eyewitnesses and testimony. The concept widened to cover natural as well as human events as a result of developments in news reportage and travel writing. Only then, Shapiro discovers, did scientific philosophy adopt the category "fact." With Francis Bacon advocating more stringent criteria, the witness became a vital component in scientific observation and experimentation. Shapiro also recounts how England's preoccupation with the fact influenced historiography, religion, and literature--which saw the creation of a fact-oriented fictional genre, the novel.  A Brief History of Great Britain By William E. Burns 2010 | 321 Pages | ISBN: 0816077282 | PDF | 9 MB A Brief History of Great Britain narrates the history of Great Britain from the earliest times to the 21st century, covering the entire island--England, Wales, and Scotland--as well as associated archipelagos such as the Channel Islands, the Orkneys, and Ireland as they have influenced British history. The central story of this volume is the development of the British kingdom, including its rise and decline on the world stage. The book is built around a clear chronological political narrative while incorporating treatment of social, economic, and religious issues.  50 Days Vegetarian Diabetic Cookbook For Newly Diagnosed : 4-week Meal Plan with Scientifically Proven Recipes to Reverse Type 1 & 2 Diabetes without Drugs; Plant-based Meal for People By RHETT DORSEY English | ASIN: B08KH12YYN | 2020 | 158 pages | EPUB | 0.3 MB  Writing the Virus: New Work from StatORec Magazine by Andrea Scrima English | October 23rd, 2020 | ISBN: 1944853774 | 290 pages | True EPUB | 0.82 MB Writing the Virus: New Work from StatORec Magazine draws from writing published in the online literary magazine StatORec from mid-April to September 2020.

Which Rationality? by Alasdair MacIntyre English | 1989 | ISBN: 0268019444, 0268019428 | ISBN-13: 9780268019440 | 423 pages | PDF | 18,8 MB Whose Justice? Which Rationality?, the sequel to After Virtue, is a persuasive argument of there not being rationality that is not the rationality of some tradition. MacIntyre examines the problems presented by the existence of rival traditions of inquiry in the cases of four major philosophers: Aristotle, Augustine, Aquinas, and Hume.

This book includes 4-manuscripts:  Volcano: Nature and Culture (Earth) by James Hamilton English | June 15, 2012 | ISBN: 1861899173 | 208 pages | EPUB | 1.72 Mb For years, tourists have trekked across cracked rock at Hawaii's Kilauea volcano to witness the awe-inspiring sight of creeping lava and its devastating effects on the landscape. In 2010, Eyjafjallajökull erupted in Iceland, stranding travelers as a cloud of ash covered western and northern Europe, causing the largest disruption of air travel since World War II. And just a few months later, Mount Merapi blew in Indonesia, killing over 350 people and displacing over 350,000 others, awakening people once more to the dangerous potential of these sleeping giants.Though today largely dormant, volcanoes continue to erupt across the world, reminding us of their sheer physical power. InVolcano, James Hamilton explores the cultural history generated by the violence and terrifying beauty of volcanoes. He describes the reverberations of early eruptions of Vesuvius and Etna in Greek and Roman myth. He also examines the depiction of volcanoes in art-from the earliest known wall painting of an erupting volcano in 6200 BCE to the distinctive colors of Andy Warhol and Michael Sandle's exploding mountains. Surveying a number of twenty-first-century works, Hamilton shows that volcanoes continue to influence the artistic imagination.Combining established figures such as Joseph Wright and J. M. W. Turner with previously unseen perspectives, this richly illustrated book will appeal to anyone interested in science as well as the cultural impact of these spectacular natural features. |
