Hubert Selby Jr.
The Demon

1994 y.
Publisher: Marion Boyars Publishers
Description: A major American author of a stature with William Burroughs and Joseph Heller.?Los Angeles Times Harry White is a man haunted by a satyr`s lust and an obsessive need for sin and retribution. The more Harry succeeds - a good marriage, a good corporate jb - the more desperate he becomes, as a life of petty crime leads to fraud and murder and, eventually, to apocalyptic violence. Author of the controversial cult classic, Last Exit to Brooklyn, Hubert Selby began as a writer of short fiction. He plungesthe reader head-first into the densely realized worlds of his protagonists, in which the details of daily life rub shoulders with obsession and madness. Although fundamentally concerned with morality, Selby`s own sense of humility prevents him from preachng. He offers instead a passionate empathy with the ordinary dreams and aspirations of his characters, a brilliant ear for the urban vernacular and for the voices of conscience and self-deceit that torment his characters. `Selby`s… [detailed...]

The Depression and the Developing World, 1914-1939: The Depression and the Developing World, 1865-1939, Vol. 2

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: First published in 1981, this book explores alternatives to the usual interpretations of the Depression, which stress the disruption in Europe caused by the Versailles Settlement, and the downswing in the United States. Here, AJH Latham`s classic work examines the economic experience of Asia and Africa from 1914 to 1939 and looks at the influence of the developed world upon these two continents, showing how events there affected the entire international economy. In particular the author suggests that the economic progress of the 1920s caused the depression by creating overproduction of foodstuffs and raw materials. The communications improvements of these years are examined in detail, and the complex problems of the monetary systems of the developing countries are outlined together with the flow of capital to these areas, and its reversal in the 1930s.The book concludes that the overproduction of rice coupled with overproduction of wheat, forced down prices, thus causing… [detailed...]

The Descent of Ideas: The History of Intellectual History

2002 y.
Publisher: Ashgate
Description: The `history of ideas`, better known these days as intellectual history, is a flourishing field of study which has been the object of much controversy but hardly any historical exploration. This work from Donald R.Kelley is a comprehensive history of intellectual history, tracing the study of the history of thought from ancient, medieval and early modern times, its emergence as the `history of ideas` in the 18th century, and its subsequent expansion. The point of departure for the study is the perspective opened up by Victor Cousin in the early 19th-century on `Eclecticism` and its association with the history of philosophy established by Renaissance scholars. Kelley considers a broad range of topics, including the rivalry between `ideas` and language, the rise of cultural history, the contributions of certain 19th- and 20th-century practitioners of the history of ideas in interdisciplinary areas of philosophy, literature and the sciences, and finally the current state of intellectual… [detailed...]

Description: The Museum of Modern Art Design Encyclopedia is the most comprehensive design reference guide to date. Compiled over the last 15 years by Mel Byars, in consultation with an international team of design experts, The Encyclopedia sets out to provide the factual framework of a discipline whose own historical accounting of itself is still relatively young. (By way of contrast, art history has existed as a scholarly discipline for over two centuries, and has produced a fairly comprehensive record of itself in that time period.) Only once before has a similarly comprehensive overview of the history of design been attempted--in 1994, also by Mel Byars. The Encyclopedia is about design, of course, but these days `design` seems to encompass almost everything, from magazine layouts and sweatshirts to animatronic flower gardens and heart pumps, not to mention the more abstract `information design.` Here, however, design is considered only in its concrete application to functional objects, thus… [detailed...]
