Donovan Sherman, "The Philosopher's Toothache: Embodied Stoicism in Early Modern English Drama "
English | ISBN: 0810144158 | 2021 | 208 pages | PDF | 4 MB
The Philosopher's Toothache proposes that early modern Stoicism constituted a radical mode of performance. Stoicism-with its focus on bodily sensation, imagined spectatorship, and daily mental and physical exercise-exists as what the philosopher Pierre Hadot calls a "way of life," a set of habits and practices. To be a Stoic is not to espouse doctrine but to act.

Dominic Lennard, "The Other Hollywood Renaissance "
English | ISBN: 1474442641 | 2020 | 416 pages | PDF | 11 MB
In the late 1960s, the collapse of the classic Hollywood studio system led in part, and for less than a decade, to a production trend heavily influenced by the international art cinema. Reflecting a new self-consciousness in the US about the national film patrimony, this period is known as the Hollywood Renaissance. However, critical study of the period is generally associated with its so-called principal auteurs, slighting a number of established and emerging directors who were responsible for many of the era's most innovative and artistically successful releases.

Jessica Merrill, "The Origins of Russian Literary Theory: Folklore, Philology, Form "
English | ISBN: 0810144905 | 2022 | 312 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Russian Formalism is widely considered the foundation of modern literary theory. This book reevaluates the movement in light of the current commitment to rethink the concept of literary form in cultural-historical terms. Jessica Merrill provides a novel reconstruction of the intellectual historical context that enabled the emergence of Formalism in the 1910s. Formalists adopted a mode of thought Merrill calls the philological paradigm, a framework for thinking about language, literature, and folklore that lumped them together as verbal tradition. For those who thought in these terms, verbal tradition was understood to be inseparable from cultural history. Merrill situates early literary theories within this paradigm to reveal abandoned paths in the history of the discipline-ideas that were discounted by the structuralist and post-structuralist accounts that would emerge after World War II.

The Nearly Men: The Greatest Teams Never to Win the World Cup by Aidan Williams
English | September 1, 2022 | ISBN: 1801500932 | True EPUB | 272 pages | 7.95 MB
The Nearly Men tells the fascinating stories of some of the most revered international football teams of all time. Through the history of the World Cup there are many sides who thrilled us all with their elegance and style, or who revolutionised the game, only to fail when it mattered most. They are the teams that could, and in some cases perhaps should, have won the World Cup, yet remain memorable for what they did achieve as well as what they didn't. They all left a lasting legacy, be that of unfulfilled potential, crushed dreams or the artistry they produced that could have seen them prevail. Their exploits and accomplishments are frequently hailed more than those of the winners.
