› Find signed collectible books: 'Actresses as Working Women : Their Social Identity in Victorian Culture'Book summary:In Victorian society performers were drawn from varying class backgrounds, and enjoyed a unique degree of social mobility. Nevertheless the living and working conditions of female performers were very different from those of their male colleagues. Their segregation and concentration in low-status jobs, like dancing, guaranteed economic insecurity. Their attempts to reconcile sexuality and the female life cycle to a physically demanding, itinerant occupation under constant public scrutiny led to assumptions about actresses' morality. These assumptions were constantly reinforced by theatrical conventions which reflected popular pornographic images, and were extremely difficult to overcome. This book should be of interest to students and teachers of theatre studies, women's studies, and social history. [via]

Adult Education and the Postmodern Challenge: Learning Beyond the Limitsby Robin Usher, Ian Bryant, Rennie JohnstonISBN 0415120217 (0-415-12021-7)
Softcover, Routledge

› Find signed collectible books: 'Adult Education and the Postmodern Challenge: Learning Beyond the Limits'Book summary:This book offers some suggestions as to ways forward from this dilemma. Drawing on the new intellectual frameworks of critical pedagogy, feminism and postmodernism and their impact upon educational theory, practice and research, the book focuses on the changing contexts of adult education. By building on the notion of going beyond the limits of certain current adult education orthodoxies, the authors try to provide alternatives for practice. The final three chapters deal with research, focusing on a critical macro-analysis of mainstream paradigms, a review of alternative approaches, and a more micro-analysis centering on the role of the socially-located self in the research process.

Boots of Leather, Slippers of Gold: The History of a Lesbian Communityby Madeline D. Davis, Elizabeth Lapovsky KennedyISBN 0415902932 (0-415-90293-2)

› Find signed collectible books: 'Boots of Leather, Slippers of Gold: The History of a Lesbian Community'Book summary:Boots of Leather, Slippers of Gold traces the evolution of the lesbian community in Buffalo, New York from the mid-1930s up to the early 1960s. Drawing upon the oral histories of 45 women, it is the first comprehensive history of a working-class lesbian community. These poignant and complex stories show how black and white working-class lesbians, although living under oppressive circumstances, nevertheless became powerful agents of historical change.
Based on 13 years of research, Boots of Leather, Slippers of Gold ranges over such topics as sex, relationships, coming out, butch-fem roles, motherhood, aging, racism, work, oppression and pride. Kennedy and Davis provide a unique insider's perspective on butch-fem culture and argue that the roots of gay and lesbian liberation are found specifically in the determined resistance of working-class lesbians.

De Rerum Natura: The Poem on Natureby C. H. SissonISBN 0415969573 (0-415-96957-3)
Softcover, Routledge
Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'De Rerum Natura: The Poem on Nature'Book summary:The "De Rerum Natura" of Lucretius (99BC-55BC) is one of the great books of the world, a lucid explanation of physical phenomena that develops into a majestic vision of the ultimate nature of the universe. Lucretius' observations of the particularities of the world remain vividly alive across the centuries. Through his eyes we see the growth of crops and the changing seasons, the behaviour of animals and the symptoms of disease. We follow his enquiring, scientific mind as he investigates the workings of mirror images, thunderstorms and magnetism, how we walk and what sleep is. The poem's power lies in the tension between this brief, sensuous, richness of life, and Lucretius' overarching belief in an empty universe of eternally recurring elements. C.H. Sisson's version of Lucretius's De Rerum Natura is well worth having. It should help to bring back into active presence not only the most Latin of major Latin poets, but a work in which the perennial question as to whether science and poetry, philosophy and poetry, can be united receives an unsurpassed affirmative answer.

Giordano Bruno and the Hermetic Traditionby Frances A. YatesISBN 0415220459 (0-415-22045-9)
Hardcover, Routledge
Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'Giordano Bruno and the Hermetic Tradition'Book summary:The leading Renaissance scholar of her time, Frances Yates revolutionised the study of the history of art, science and ideas. She demonstrated that ideas and practices once considered marginal such as hermeticism and alchemy were actually at the forefront of the renaissance mind. Yates was a pioneer in her emphasis on visual culture and many of her works are richly illustrated with the iconography of symbolism of occult philosophy. Her magisterial studies address subjects as diverse as: Shakespeares last plays late medieval tapestry Italian renaissance philosophy the Rosicrucians For forty years of her life Frances Yates was associated with the Warburg Institute. Awarded a DBE for services to renaissance studies in 1977, she was a Fellow of the British Academy and of the Royal Society of Literature. This set provides immediate access to the work of this most important of late twentieth century philosophers. Volumes are also available individually. The Valois Tapestries 0415-22044-0 This extensively illustrated volume presents the extravagant tapestries of the Uffizi as documents, subtly woven into the fabric of cultural and political history. Giordano Bruno and the Hermetic Tradition 0415-22045-9 Giordano Bruno, perhaps the best-known philosopher of the Italian Renaissance, is here, for the first time, placed within the context of the Hermetic-Cabalist tradition. Yates explores how Renaissance Hermeticism stimulated new attitudes towards the cosmos and towards working with cosmic forces. Bruno emerges as a Hermetic Philosopher and magician with an unorthodox religious message. Even his support of Copernicus is associated with solar magic. This revolutionary reinterpretation profoundly affects our understanding of Bruno and of his death at the stake. The Art of Memory 0415-22046-7 Trained memory was of first importance in the ancient world before printing and paper for taking notes or writing down lectures were available. An art rose in response to this need which relied on architecture and could depend on faculties of intense visual memorization. In this volume, Yates traces this art of memory from Simonides through Aquinas to the Renaissance and the growth of scientific method. The Rosicrucian Enlightenment 0415-22047-5 The Rosicrucian Enlightenment is an enthralling reconstruction of an important yet largely forgotten phase in European thought. A stage between the Renaissance and the scientific revolution of the seventeenth century, the Rosicrucian Enlightenment was a striving for spiritual illumination as well as an attempt to advance scientific and intellectual knowledge. This book is the definitive work on the origins of Rosicrucian thought and its influence on politics and great thinkers in seventeenth-century Europe. Frances Yates focuses on the short-lived reign of Frederick, Elector Palatine, and his wife, the daughter of James I, as Winter King and Queen of Bohemia showing that this brief period was a Hermetic golden age, inspired by the Rosicrucian movement. The reconstruction of this phase of European history takes Rosicruianism beyond occult studies and makes it a concern for serious historical enquiry. The intellectual giants of this era, including Francis Bacon, Descartes and Newton, are seen here in new contexts that provide fresh insight into their thought. Among the many other personages and themes discussed are John Dee, Robert Boyles Invisible College, and the rise of the Royal Society and of Freemasonry. Astraea: The Imperial Theme in the Sixteenth Century 0415-22048-3 In this volume, Frances Yates attends to the political dimension of Renaissance thought. She examines the images and symbolism of religion and monarchy, especially in relation to the myth of Astraea. As well as being essential reading for historians of the Renaissance period, the book is of fundamental importance for students of the literature of the Elizabethan period. Frances Yates shows how Spensers Fairie Queene E grew out of the Accession Day Tilts and the imagery deployed in them, and demonstrates that Shakespeares preoccupation with Monarchy, with a rule of justice and purity as opposed to the forces of evil, grew out of the contemporary preoccupation with a religious imperial theme. The book as a whole forms a unity - an approach to history through imagery - and includes many illustrations, which are in themselves historical documents. Shakespeares Last Plays: A New Approach 0415-22049-1 Drawing together many years of research on Renaissance symbolism and the Hermetic tradition, Frances Yates tackles Shakespearean problems, with startlingly original results. Her approach makes possible a new interpretation of Cymbeline, relating its imagery to the revival of Tudor mythology the influence of the Tudor imperial reform and religious toleration in Henry VIII the role of magic in the last plays whose magical-mystical atmosphere is compared with that of the Rosicrucian movement in Germany with which it is suggested that Shakespeare was in sympathy Ben Jonsons attitude to Shakespeare. The book connects closely with Astraea and The Rosicrucian Enlightenment and it suggests entirely new and exciting routes into the understanding of Shakespeares attitude to the religious problems of his age. The Occult Philosophy in the Elizabethan Age 0415-220505 A central theme of this book is the history of Christian Cabala, the Christian interpretation of the Jewish mystical tradition. It was believed that when God gave the Law to Moses, he also gave a revelation of the secret meaning of the Law. This esoteric tradition was interpreted in a Christian sense by Pico della Mirandola, the founder of Christian Cabala, with which he associated Hermeticism. Part I discusses the occult philosophy in Renaissance and Reformation, showing its wide influence and reactions against it as magic. Part II traces the influence of the occult philosophy on major Elizabethan writers such as Spenser, Marlowe, Chapman and Shakespeare. A major theme throughout the book is the importance of the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492 in spreading Cabalist notions among Christians. The presence of Jewish influence in the Elizabethan age is hinted at, and the return of the Jews to England in the reign of Charles II is seen as the culmination of trends linking Albion with Jerusalem, even in the Elizabethan age. This is discussed in Part III. The book uses Frances Yatess other works on the Hermetic-Cabalist tradition, whilst attempting a new presentation of Christian Cabala. In her study of the imagery with which the poets express occult philosophy, she draws on her work Astraea E on the Elizabethan imperial reform. Lull & Bruno (Collected essays) 0415-22051-3 The essays collected here reprint the first sketches, dating from 1939 to 1960, which were to form Giordano Bruno and the Hermetic Tradition. They contain much material not used in that book, however, and they also look forward to what became The Art of Memory. Renaissance and Reform: The Italian Contribution (Collected essays) 0415-22052-1 This book brings together Frances Yatess research on Italian subjects, drawn from all periods of her long and distinguished career. Beginning with an account of how she first became involved with Italian cultural and intellectual history, the essays collected here cover a wide range of topics, some taking up and adding to themes explored in her books, others breaking new ground. Included are articles on aspects of Giordano Bruno, teachers of Italian in sixteenth and seventeenth-century England, Shakespeare and the Platonic tradition, and a fourteenth century treatise on artificial memory, as well as essays on Paolo Sarpi, Machiavelli, Guicciardini, and on the Hebrew teachers of Pico della Mirandola and other philosophers of the Italian Renaissance. Ideas and Ideals in the North European Renaissance 0415-22239-7 This volume comprises Yatess papers and reviews on topics concerning England, France, the Netherlands and Germany during the epoch of the Renaissance and Reformation. The essays are drawn from all periods of Yatess long career and cover a wide range of subjects: English allegorical portraiture in the Elizabethan age Yatess early and late contributions on Shakespeare, Jonson, John Dee and Francis Bacon English Protestant attitudes to religious images and to martyrdom French drama Theocratic and apocalyptic politics European influence of printing and of Erasmus, Cornelius Agrippa, Copernicus and Newton. Also included is a selection from Yatess notes on her early publications and first acquaintance with the Warburg Institute as well as a brief autobiographical account of her early life. A full list of her writings completes the book and rounds out the picture of a remarkable historian. [via]

An Instinct for Dragonsby David E. JonesISBN 0415937299 (0-415-93729-9)

Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'An Instinct for Dragons'Book summary:From J.R.R. Tolkien's treasure-hoarding Smaug to the bright red beasts of the Chinese New Year's celebration, this magnificent, fire-breathing creature is ingrained in our culture. But where did the dragon originate? And how is it that people from Africa to China to America picture it the same?
An Instinct for Dragons is anthropologist David E Jones's account of his search for the mysterious birth of this ubiquitous monster. In a vast synthesis of art, mythology, history, and anthropology, Jones finds that the dragon is in fact a universal image. Not only does every culture in the world have a name for it -- smok in Polish, tatsu in Japanese, unktena in Cherokee -- but dragons everywhere share many of the same characteristics: multiple heads, talon-like claws, blazing breath.
Jones spans dragon lore from the Loch Ness monster to the Internet, as well as dragon inscriptions on cave walls, cliffs, and pots. His conclusion is stunning: not only is our fear and fascination with dragons a direct result of the predators who threatened our evolution - eagles, leopards, and pythons - but humankind is essentially hardwired to believe in this creature.
Captivating and eloquent, An Instinct for Dragons decodes the ancient puzzle of the oldest and fiercest monster. [via]More editions of An Instinct for Dragons:

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Philosophy of Money'Book summary:'I have lost interest ... in all that I have written prior to The Philosophy of Money. This one is really my book, the others appear to me colourless and seem as if they could have been written by anyone else.' - Georg Simmel to Heinrich Rickert (1904)
In The Philosophy of Money, Simmel provides us with a remarkably wide-ranging discussion of the social, psychological and philosophical aspects of the money economy, full of brilliant insights into the forms that social relationships take. He analyzes the relationships of money to exchange, the human personality, the position of women, individual freedom and many other areas of human existence. Later he provides us with an account of the consequences of the modern money economy and the division of labour, which examines the processes of alienation and reification in work, urban life and elsewhere. Perhaps, more than any of his other sociological works, The Philosophy of Money gives us an example of his comprehensive analysis of the interrelationships between the most diverse and seemingly connected social phenomena.
This revised edition of the translation by Tom Bottomore and David Frisby, includes a new Preface by David Frisby. [via]-

› Find signed collectible books: 'Portrait of a Killer : Jack the Ripper - Case Closed'Book summary:The number-one New York Times-bestselling novelist Patricia Cornwell is known the world over for her brilliant storytelling, the courage of her characters, and the state-of-the-art forensic methods they employ.
In this headline-making new work of nonfiction, Cornwell turns her trademark skills for meticulous research and scientific expertise on one of the most chilling cases of serial murder in the history of crime-the slayings of Jack the Ripper that terrorized 1880s London. With the masterful intuition into the criminal mind that has informed her novels, Cornwell digs deeper into the case than any detective before her-and reveals the true identity of this elusive madman.
Enlisting the help of forensic experts, Cornwell examines all the physical evidence available: thousands of documents and reports, fingerprints, crime-scene photographs, original etchings and paintings, items of clothing, artists' paraphernalia, and traces of DNA. Her unavoidable conclusion: Jack the Ripper was none other than a respected painter of his day, an artist now collected by some of the world's finest museums.

Selected Works of Frances Yatesby Frances A. YatesISBN 0415220432 (0-415-22043-2)

› Find signed collectible books: 'Selected Works of Frances Yates'Book summary:The leading Renaissance scholar of her time, Frances Yates revolutionised the study of the history of art, science and ideas. She demonstrated that ideas and practices once considered marginal such as hermeticism and alchemy were actually at the forefront of the renaissance mind. Yates was a pioneer in her emphasis on visual culture and many of her works are richly illustrated with the iconography of symbolism of occult philosophy. Her magisterial studies address subjects as diverse as: Shakespeares last plays late medieval tapestry Italian renaissance philosophy the Rosicrucians For forty years of her life Frances Yates was associated with the Warburg Institute. Awarded a DBE for services to renaissance studies in 1977, she was a Fellow of the British Academy and of the Royal Society of Literature. This set provides immediate access to the work of this most important of late twentieth century philosophers. Volumes are also available individually. The Valois Tapestries 0415-22044-0 This extensively illustrated volume presents the extravagant tapestries of the Uffizi as documents, subtly woven into the fabric of cultural and political history. Giordano Bruno and the Hermetic Tradition 0415-22045-9 Giordano Bruno, perhaps the best-known philosopher of the Italian Renaissance, is here, for the first time, placed within the context of the Hermetic-Cabalist tradition. Yates explores how Renaissance Hermeticism stimulated new attitudes towards the cosmos and towards working with cosmic forces. Bruno emerges as a Hermetic Philosopher and magician with an unorthodox religious message. Even his support of Copernicus is associated with solar magic. This revolutionary reinterpretation profoundly affects our understanding of Bruno and of his death at the stake. The Art of Memory 0415-22046-7 Trained memory was of first importance in the ancient world before printing and paper for taking notes or writing down lectures were available. An art rose in response to this need which relied on architecture and could depend on faculties of intense visual memorization. In this volume, Yates traces this art of memory from Simonides through Aquinas to the Renaissance and the growth of scientific method. The Rosicrucian Enlightenment 0415-22047-5 The Rosicrucian Enlightenment is an enthralling reconstruction of an important yet largely forgotten phase in European thought. A stage between the Renaissance and the scientific revolution of the seventeenth century, the Rosicrucian Enlightenment was a striving for spiritual illumination as well as an attempt to advance scientific and intellectual knowledge. This book is the definitive work on the origins of Rosicrucian thought and its influence on politics and great thinkers in seventeenth-century Europe. Frances Yates focuses on the short-lived reign of Frederick, Elector Palatine, and his wife, the daughter of James I, as Winter King and Queen of Bohemia showing that this brief period was a Hermetic golden age, inspired by the Rosicrucian movement. The reconstruction of this phase of European history takes Rosicruianism beyond occult studies and makes it a concern for serious historical enquiry. The intellectual giants of this era, including Francis Bacon, Descartes and Newton, are seen here in new contexts that provide fresh insight into their thought. Among the many other personages and themes discussed are John Dee, Robert Boyles Invisible College, and the rise of the Royal Society and of Freemasonry. Astraea: The Imperial Theme in the Sixteenth Century 0415-22048-3 In this volume, Frances Yates attends to the political dimension of Renaissance thought. She examines the images and symbolism of religion and monarchy, especially in relation to the myth of Astraea. As well as being essential reading for historians of the Renaissance period, the book is of fundamental importance for students of the literature of the Elizabethan period. Frances Yates shows how Spensers Fairie Queene E grew out of the Accession Day Tilts and the imagery deployed in them, and demonstrates that Shakespeares preoccupation with Monarchy, with a rule of justice and purity as opposed to the forces of evil, grew out of the contemporary preoccupation with a religious imperial theme. The book as a whole forms a unity - an approach to history through imagery - and includes many illustrations, which are in themselves historical documents. Shakespeares Last Plays: A New Approach 0415-22049-1 Drawing together many years of research on Renaissance symbolism and the Hermetic tradition, Frances Yates tackles Shakespearean problems, with startlingly original results. Her approach makes possible a new interpretation of Cymbeline, relating its imagery to the revival of Tudor mythology the influence of the Tudor imperial reform and religious toleration in Henry VIII the role of magic in the last plays whose magical-mystical atmosphere is compared with that of the Rosicrucian movement in Germany with which it is suggested that Shakespeare was in sympathy Ben Jonsons attitude to Shakespeare. The book connects closely with Astraea and The Rosicrucian Enlightenment and it suggests entirely new and exciting routes into the understanding of Shakespeares attitude to the religious problems of his age. The Occult Philosophy in the Elizabethan Age 0415-220505 A central theme of this book is the history of Christian Cabala, the Christian interpretation of the Jewish mystical tradition. It was believed that when God gave the Law to Moses, he also gave a revelation of the secret meaning of the Law. This esoteric tradition was interpreted in a Christian sense by Pico della Mirandola, the founder of Christian Cabala, with which he associated Hermeticism. Part I discusses the occult philosophy in Renaissance and Reformation, showing its wide influence and reactions against it as magic. Part II traces the influence of the occult philosophy on major Elizabethan writers such as Spenser, Marlowe, Chapman and Shakespeare. A major theme throughout the book is the importance of the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492 in spreading Cabalist notions among Christians. The presence of Jewish influence in the Elizabethan age is hinted at, and the return of the Jews to England in the reign of Charles II is seen as the culmination of trends linking Albion with Jerusalem, even in the Elizabethan age. This is discussed in Part III. The book uses Frances Yatess other works on the Hermetic-Cabalist tradition, whilst attempting a new presentation of Christian Cabala. In her study of the imagery with which the poets express occult philosophy, she draws on her work Astraea E on the Elizabethan imperial reform. Lull & Bruno (Collected essays) 0415-22051-3 The essays collected here reprint the first sketches, dating from 1939 to 1960, which were to form Giordano Bruno and the Hermetic Tradition. They contain much material not used in that book, however, and they also look forward to what became The Art of Memory. Renaissance and Reform: The Italian Contribution (Collected essays) 0415-22052-1 This book brings together Frances Yatess research on Italian subjects, drawn from all periods of her long and distinguished career. Beginning with an account of how she first became involved with Italian cultural and intellectual history, the essays collected here cover a wide range of topics, some taking up and adding to themes explored in her books, others breaking new ground. Included are articles on aspects of Giordano Bruno, teachers of Italian in sixteenth and seventeenth-century England, Shakespeare and the Platonic tradition, and a fourteenth century treatise on artificial memory, as well as essays on Paolo Sarpi, Machiavelli, Guicciardini, and on the Hebrew teachers of Pico della Mirandola and other philosophers of the Italian Renaissance. Ideas and Ideals in the North European Renaissance 0415-22239-7 This volume comprises Yatess papers and reviews on topics concerning England, France, the Netherlands and Germany during the epoch of the Renaissance and Reformation. The essays are drawn from all periods of Yatess long career and cover a wide range of subjects: English allegorical portraiture in the Elizabethan age Yatess early and late contributions on Shakespeare, Jonson, John Dee and Francis Bacon English Protestant attitudes to religious images and to martyrdom French drama Theocratic and apocalyptic politics European influence of printing and of Erasmus, Cornelius Agrippa, Copernicus and Newton. Also included is a selection from Yatess notes on her early publications and first acquaintance with the Warburg Institute as well as a brief autobiographical account of her early life. A full list of her writings completes the book and rounds out the picture of a remarkable historian. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Simians, Cyborgs and Women: The Reinvention of Nature'Book summary:Simians, Cyborgs and Women is a powerful collection of ten essays written between 1978 and 1989. Although on the surface, simians, cyborgs and women may seem an odd threesome, Haraway describes their profound link as "creatures" which have had a great destabilizing place in Western evolutionary technology and biology. Throughout this book, Haraway analyzes accounts, narratives, and stories of the creation of nature, living organisms, and cyborgs. At once a social reality and a science fiction, the cyborg--a hybrid of organism and machine--represents transgressed boundaries and intense fusions of the nature/culture split. By providing an escape from rigid dualisms, the cyborg exists in a post-gender world, and as such holds immense possibilities for modern feminists. Haraway's recent book, Primate Visions, has been called "outstanding," "original," and "brilliant," by leading scholars in the field. Simians, Cyborgs, and Women tradition--establishing [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Understanding Media; The Extension of Man'Book summary:When Marshall McLuhan first coined the phrases "global village" and "the medium is the message" in 1964, no-one could have predicted today's information-dependent planet. No-one, that is, except for a handful of science fiction writers and Marshall McLuhan. Understanding Media was written twenty years before the PC revolution and thirty years before the rise of the Internet. Yet McLuhan's insights into our engagement with a variety of media led to a complete rethinking of our entire society. He believed that the message of electronic media foretold the end of humanity as it was known. In 1964, this looked like the paranoid babblings of a madman. In our twenty-first century digital world, the madman looks quite sane. Understanding Media: the most important book ever written on communication. Ignore its message at your peril. [via]
