Turen går til Tunesien
Bog
Solen fanger parfumeflakonerne og sniger sig videre ind i den kringelkrogede medina. Bag medinaen fortsætter oasen. Bag oasen begynder Sahara. Sandet knaser mellem tænderne og hvisler under fødderne. Velkommen til hotellet med 1000 stjerner, siger kamelføreren og kigger op i nattehimmelen. Her i ørkenen kan sjælen lade op.

What happens when we look at a painting? What do we think about? What do we imagine? How can we explain, even to ourselves, what we see or think we see? And how can art historians interpret with any seriousness what they observe? In six engaging, short narrative "fictions," each richly illustrated in color, Daniel Arasse, one of the most brilliant art historians of our time, cleverly and gracefully guides readers through a variety of adventures in seeing, from Velázquez to Titian, Bruegel to Tintoretto.
By demonstrating that we don't really see what these paintings are trying to show us, Arasse makes it clear that we need to take a closer look. In chapters that each have a different form, including a letter, an interview, and an animated conversation with a colleague, the book explores how these pictures teach us about ways of seeing across the centuries. In the process, Arasse freshly lays bare the dazzling power of painting. Fast-paced and full of humor as well as insight, this is a book for anyone who cares about really looking at, seeing, and understanding paintings.
Daniel Arasse (1944-2003) was professor of art history at the Sorbonne, director of the French Institute in Florence, and director of studies at l'École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales. His many books include Vermeer (Princeton), Botticelli, and Anselm Kiefer.
Severe and Mild Depression - The Psychotherapeutic Approach
Arieti, Silvano & Jules Bemporad
Bog
TILBUD 30 DKK inkl. moms
Silvano Arieti (June 28, 1914 in Pisa, Italy – August 7, 1981 in New York City) was a psychiatrist regarded as one of the world’s foremost authorities on schizophrenia. He received his M.D. from the University of Pisa and left Italy soon after, due to the increasingly racial policies of Benito Mussolini.
Arieti was professor of psychiatry at New York Medical College. He was also training analyst in the Division of Psychoanalysis at the William Alanson White Institute, and editor of the six-volume American Handbook of Psychiatry. His Interpretation of Schizophrenia won the 1975 National Book Award in Science.[1]
Arieti undertook psychotherapy of schizophrenic patients, an unusual approach that few of his colleagues chose to pursue. The views he expressed in Interpretation of Schizophrenia are now professionally called the trauma model of mental disorders and constitute one alternative to the mainstream medical model of mental disorders.
Lysistrata
Aristophanes (ed. by Jeffrey Henderson)

TILBUD
In addition to its many topical references to social life, religion, and politics in classical Athens, the Lysistrata is one of our best sources for the life of women in antiquity: unlike epic, tragedy, and oratory, Attic comedy draws its characters and plots from everyday life and provides a unique glimpse into the situation of everyday Athenians. Henderson's standard edition of Aristophanes' play provides much new evidence for those working on anthropological and sociological aspects of Athens, as well as those working in traditional philological fields. The text is brought fully up to date with the advances made in Aristophanic scholarship over the past sixty years.
In particular, it is the first to report all the manuscripts, papyri, and testimonial sources of the text, offering a new account of its history and a detailed review of the transmission of the Aristophanic corpus as a whole. Henderson's text and apparatus criticus is supplemented by a full Introduction giving details of the background to the play, its content, staging, philological interest, the textual transmission, and by a detailed Commentary.

10 faldgruber

Denne bog er en håndsrækning til alle dem, der ikke er oversættere, men som alligevel oversætter, hvad enten det er enkeltstående ord, citater eller lidt længere tekster.
Bogen gennemgår ti faldgruber, som giver anledning til de mest almindelige oversættelsesfejl, og gennemgår eksempler fra dagspressen, hvor oversættere elegant har undgået faldgruberne eller er gået i med begge ben. De ti faldgruber er:
Kulturspecifikke elementer, faste udtryk, falske venner, egennavne, rang og titler, fagsprog, stil, undersættelser, ikke-oversættelser, maskinoversættelser.
Bogen giver også en introduktion til grundliggende spørgsmål inden for oversættelsesteorien: Hvorfor kan man ikke bare skrive det, det hedder på det andet sprog? Hvad gør man, når et begreb kun findes i én kultur? Hvad "må" man, når man oversætter?
I modsætning til andre danske bøger om oversættelse er denne en praktisk håndbog, der især henvender sig til dem, der beskæftiger sig med journalistisk oversættelse, fx journalister, skribenter og kommunikatører, der bruger udenlandske nyhedstelegrammer, pressemeddelelser, interviews, artikler og kilder i deres arbejde, samt journalist- og kommunikationsstuderende og andre sprogarbejdere med interesse for oversættelse. Fokus er på oversættelse fra engelsk til dansk, men bogen kan også bruges af folk, der beskæftiger sig med andre sprogkombinationer.

Greek Drama and Dramatists
Sommerstein, Alan H.
Bog
TILBUD
The history of European drama began at the festivals of Dionysus in ancient Athens, where tragedy, satyr-drama and comedy were performed. Understanding this background is vital for students of classical, literary and theatrical subjects, and Alan H. Sommerstein's accessible study is the ideal introduction. The book begins by looking at the social and theatrical contexts and different characteristics of the three genres of ancient Greek drama. It then examines the five main dramatists whose works survive - Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes and Menander - discussing their styles, techniques and ideas, and giving short synopses of all their extant plays. Additional helpful features include succinct coverage of almost sixty other authors, a chronology of significant people and events, and an anthology of translated texts, all of which have been previously inaccessible to students. An up-to-date study bibliography of further reading concludes the volume. Clear, concise and comprehensive, and written by an acknowledged expert in the field, Greek Drama and Dramatists will be a valuable orientation text at both sixth form and undergraduate level.
Deadly Dialectics - Sex, violence and nihilism in the world of Yukio Mishima
Starrs, Roy
Bog
Nietzsche once described his own iconoclastic style of thought as "my attempt to philosophize with a hammer", and Michima's nihilism too is the "hammer" withwhich he smashes to pieces the masks worn by his characters - and this act of "smashing" itself often forms the dramatic climax of his novels. This was Mishima's real "act of courage": not the self-indulgent swordplay with which he mesmerized the world but the devastatign honesty with which,in his writings, he unmasked his fictional alter egos and revealed the void which gaped behind the mask.

Morality - An Introduction to Ethics

TILBUD 20 DKK inkl. moms
Bernard Williams's remarkable essay on morality confronts the problems of writing moral philosophy, and offers a stimulating alternative to more systematic accounts which seem nevertheless to have left all the important issues somewhere off the page. Williams explains, analyses and distinguishes a number of key positions, from the purely amoral to notions of subjective or relative morality, testing their coherence before going on to explore the nature of 'goodness' in relation to responsibilities and choice, roles, standards, and human nature. The final chapters make a fascinating enquiry into what morality is about, looking beyond happiness to other human aims and ideals.
