Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. An evocative collection of vignettes and essays from Ukraines voice of classical antiquity, now available in English for the first time.Inspired by Virgils exquisitely ambivalent phrase sunt lacrimae rerum (there are tears of/for/in things), Andriy Sodomora, the Ukrainian voice of classical antiquity, has produced a series of original vignettes and essays about things: the big things in our lives (like happiness, loneliness, and aging); the small things we do or see daily, rarely paying attention to them (like a trees shadow or the kernels on an ear of corn); and the things (i.e., objects) to which we form connections. The selected stories presented here are the first English translations of Sodomoras profoundly intellectual and intertextual prose. Through his nostalgic memories and recollections, Sodomora takes readers on a journey through western Ukraine, as well as through world literature, from ancient Greece and Rome to the poetry of Paul Verlaine and Federico Garcia Lorca.This book has been published with the support of the Translate Ukraine Translation Program. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

When the Holocaust broke out in Europe, Hansi and Joel Brand were joined by Israel (Rezso) Kasztner to launch an organized effort to save thousands of human lives. Their efforts, which involved playing a dangerous bluffing game against the Nazi regime, helped to end the Auschwitz extermination. Their success put them at odds with the political machine of the young state of Israel. Politicians wanted the public to believe that there was nothing they could do, a sentiment which many still believe to this day. This cover-up led to Israels first politically-motivated homicide.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Osip Mandelstam (1891-1938) is widely regarded as one of the twentieth century's most influential poets. This collection, compiled, translated, and edited by poet and scholar Ian Probstein, provides Anglophone audiences with a powerful selection of Mandelstam's most beloved and haunting poems. Both scholars and general readers will gain a deeper understanding of his poetics, as Probstein situates each poem in its historical and literary context. The English translations presented here are so deeply immersed in the Russian sources and language through the ear of a Russian-born Probstein who has spent most of his adult life in the US, that they provide reader's with a Mandelstam unseen any translations that precede it. The introduction and translated poems of Mandelstam within are the gold-standard for critics and readers who dont know Russian. They expertly illuminate other Mandelstam translations, not replacing them, but rather allowing for a better understanding of what they specifically contribute. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Betheas book conveys the story of an amazingly ambitious attempt to preserve the humanities while also saving the future of disadvantaged high school students in Chicago. Highly recommended. Library Journal (starred review)The Pushkin Project tells the story of how a Russian studies professor changes course late in his career by reeducating himself in evolutionary thought and founding a summer institute that partners with inner-city high schools to implement a new set of learning strategies for underserved youth.These cognitive cross-training strategies involve introducing students from Hispanic and Black neighborhoods in the west and south sides of Chicago to the Russian culture and language, with an emphasis on poet, playwright, and novelist Alexander Pushkin. Through the lens of modern evolutionary thought, students adopt not only a new and different language and culture, but also a different sort of literary hero, one whose African heritage within the majority culture speaks to them directly. This inspiring and compelling story provides fascinating insights into Russia's national poet, brings the sciences and humanities together, and provides new directions in teaching young people from historically disadvantaged backgrounds.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Roy and Zhores Medvedev, two identical twins with a unique fate, not only lived through a whole century of history, from Stalin to Putin, they wrote and made history. Their research on Stalinism, the first to come out of the Soviet Union in the 1960s-1970s, turned them into famous dissidents overnight, but their criticism of the regime always remained loyal to Soviet power. The story of their lives provides a snapshot into the history of Soviet dissent, from psychiatric hospitalization to forced exile, and from KGB interrogations to collaboration with Western news correspondents. Yet their trajectory was also marred by controversy with fellow dissidents, and in the post-Soviet era active support of authoritarian rulers, including Vladimir Putin. The unique trajectory of Soviet dissident twin brothers Roy and Zhores Medvedev takes us through a century of history, from Stalin to Putin. They achieved fame as the first authors of independent research on Stalinism from within the USSR, but their lives were also marked by controversy.

Sylvia Nasar, author of A Beautiful MindWhile still in his early 20s, and under Hitler's shadow, Leonid Leo Hurwicz (1917-2008) left his home in Warsaw, Poland, seeking safety and a degree at the London School of Economics.

This book tells his story. In 1938, young Leonid Hurwicz leaves Warsaw seeking safety and an economics degree. These challenging years spawn a lifelong intellectual adventure, a stellar career in economics and a Nobel Prize. This book tells his story.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Of the many Cold War radio DJs who broadcast to the USSR, Seva Novgorodsev must be near the top of the list. A masterful BBC presenter, Seva was considered a sage of rock n roll. His programs introduced forbidden western popular music and culture into the USSR, rendering him an enemy voice and ideological saboteur to the Central Committee of the Communist Party. Despite KGB threats and constant media pillorying, Seva remained on the air for 38 years, acquiring millions of listeners all across the breadth of the USSR and beyond. He became a cult phenomenon, dismantling the Soviet way of life in the hearts and minds of youth. This is the story of Russias first and best-known DJ. When a Russian emigre jazz musician makes his DJ debut on the BBCs airwaves in 1977 with Stevie Wonders Sir Duke, no one expects that he, Seva Novgorodsev, would become more popular than just a presenter of forbidden Western musiche would liberate the people of the USSR.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Idolatry, or its Hebrew equivalent Avodah Zarah is a fundamental feature of a Jewish view of other religions. All religions must pass the test of whether they are compliant with a Jewish view of religions as being free from the worship of another God. With the advance in interfaith relations, positions have been affirmed that clear most major contemporary religions from the charge of idolatry. What remains of idolatry once it no longer serves as a tool for evaluating other faiths? Does the category continue to have theological appeal? What are its internal uses? A cadre of Jewish scholars and thought leaders explore in this volume what the continuing relevance of idolatry is and how it might continue to inform our religious horizons, allowing us to distinguish between good and bad religion, both within Judaism and beyond. Most major contemporary religions have been absolved of the charge of idolatry. What remains of idolatry once it no longer serves as a tool for evaluating other faiths? Does the category continue to have theological appeal? A cadre of Jewish scholars and thought leaders explore in this volume what the continuing relevance of idolatry is.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A comprehensive, readable history of the Republic of Turkey that gives equal weight to all periods in the first century of the Republic of Turkey.The republican order of Turkey seems not to have changed much since its foundation in 1923, but there were dramatic transformations: From Atatuerks modernization dictatorship in the 1920s and 1930s, over the massive migration into the cities and the military coups in the second half of the twentieth century, up to Recep Tayyip Erdogans electoral autocracy since the 2010s. This book makes us understand Turkeys historical trajectory in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and the fate of its various communities and ethnic groupsin particular Alevis and Kurdsand argues that a particular trait of Turkish political culture is its constant fluctuation between confidence and contention, grandeur and grievance.
