2007réf. 9788619023986NOLIT Dosije 2007. paperback. NEW. Ovo obimno delo se i danas dva veka posto je prvi put objavljeno nalazi na svim listama najpoznatijih biblioteka kao jedna od 100 najznacajnijih knjiga svih vremena. Istorija je tek nesto vise od niza zlocina gluposti i nesreca covecanstva. Edvard Gibon Smelo je pripisati besmrtnost jednom knjizevnom delu. Ova smelost je tim veca ako je delo istorijske prirode a sastavljeno je vekovima posle dogadjaja koje proucava. Kriticko misljenje Ebgleske i Evrope vec preko dvesta godina smatra Istoriju i opadanje i propasti Rimskog carstva klasikom a poznato je da to obuhvata i znacenje besmrtnosti. Horhe Luis Borhes Gibonovo delo Opadanje i propast Rimskog carstva objavljeno je prvi put u celosti 1788. Kao da je upravo takvo vreme trailo knjigu ne o nastanku i usponu Rima vec o njegovom opadanju o zavrsnom stolecu principata dominatu i raspadu imperije o Vizantiji kao njenom nastavku pa najzad i o njenoj propasti. Istorijsko stivo o rimskoj ali i svetskoj istoriji koje obuhvata vreme od smrti Marka Aurelija 180. godine n.e. prati silaznu putanju najvece imperije starog veka a zavrsava se uzbudljivim prikazom pada Konstantinopolja 1453. godine pred naletom Turaka.

1997réf. 38030London: Laurence King Publishing 1997. First edition. Softcover. vg. Folio. 208pp. Original illustrated wrappers with black lettering on cover red and white on spine. "The ikat silks of 19th-century Central Asia are unrivalled in their inventive designs resplendent colours and technical mastery. Ikat is an ancient technique in which colours are applied to silk warp yarns in a multi-stage tie-dye resist method before being woven. Highlighting the Guido Goldman collection this study incorporates original research in Russia and Uzbekistan and examines the complex history of Central Asia. A chapter on technique describes the different staqges of production and an analysis of the evolution and chronology of ikat design shows the rich cross-fertilization of influences between ikat design embroidery carpets jewellery and ceramics" From the publishers.

réf. 9788573213829ILUMINURAS. new. Se nem todo fil�sofo deve ser historiador seria ao menos desej�vel que todo historiador se tornasse fil�sofo'. Essa frase do ingls Edward Gibbon 1737 1794 encontra-se em seu escrito de estreia Ensaio sobre o estudo da literatura esp�cie de discurso do m�todo da hist�ria filos�fica tal como praticada por seus predecessores: T�cito Montesquieu Hume. O volume que o leitor tem em mos traz pela primeira vez em l�ngua portuguesa esse escrito de juventude cujo car�ter polmico e estilo vigoroso caem bem a um jovem autor cheio de ambio e confiana. Em defesa da nova hist�ria Gibbon no hesita em se contrapor a Diderot e dAlembert que na Enciclop�dia haviam reduzido a hist�ria a uma disciplina da mem�ria. Contra essa banalizao Gibbon mostra que o gnio do historiador reside sobretudo no ju�zo acertado na escolha e interpretao dos fatos. Contra Rousseau ele defende a dignidade da investigao aprofundada das transaes pol�ticas e militares e das maneiras dos homens contra a hip�tese arbitr�ria de um estado de natureza descolado da historicidade que nos dispensaria de aceitar a hist�ria como instncia que faculta a compreenso da natureza humana. Tendo meditado sobre essas questes de fundo o jovem Gibbon se lana no estudo das fontes e documentos que permitem compreender a experincia hist�rica em filigrana. A primeira pea de car�ter hist�rico por ele redigida em 1764 � uma pequena obra-prima que atesta o surgimento de um talento extraordin�rio. Numa dissertao at� hoje insuperada Sobre os triunfos entre os romanos Gibbon pe em ao o m�todo divisado poucos anos antes e reconstitui com preciso e vivacidade um ritual perdido cujo sentido ele depreende de uma interpretao laboriosa de fatos esparsos por�m conclusivos. Em 1776 surge o primeiro volume daquela que ser� a sua obra-prima e um dos grandes livros da literatura moderna: Decl�nio e queda do Imp�rio Romano. Completado em 1784 esse estudo monumental apresenta nada menos que um painel das causas que levaram ao desabamento da maior mais imponente e mais longeva estrutura de poder jamais vista sobre a terra fiando-se pela hip�tese que ser� demonstrada ao longo do livro de que esse evento foi decisivo para a hist�ria subsequente incluindo-se a� a da Europa moderna e de sua expanso pelo globo. A traduo parcial de Decl�nio e queda para a l�ngua portuguesa um cl�ssico de Jos� Paulo Paes exclui duas dissertaes de interesse para essa tese geral uma delas sobre os germnicos a outra sobre os citas ou hunos ambas inclu�das neste volume.

1831réf. 44817A CRITICAL VIEW CAPITAL PUNISHMENT - CERTAINTY OF PUNISHMENT MORE EFFICACIOUS THAN SEVERITY - AN ANALYSIS CONCEIVED IN UNUSUAL CIRCUMATANCES first edition small 8vo. iii-xii198pp. very attractive modern quarter calf spine panelled by raised bands large gilt tool at panel centres and a plum morocco title label gilt marbled sides no half title scattered minor marks or dustiness else very good. A handsome copy. Wakefield 1796–1862 promoter of colonization had in 1816 married a young heiress after eloping with her to Scotland but she died in 1820 from complications after childbirth. "Despite being relatively wealthy from the proceeds of his marriage settlement Wakefield's ambition a seat in the Commons demanded more .and in 1826 with the connivance of his brother William Wakefield and his stepmother Frances he abducted an heiress Ellen Turner from her boarding-school near Liverpool. She was fifteen and the daughter of William Turner of Shrigley a wealthy Cheshire manufacturer. Told that her father was dangerously ill Ellen was bundled into a coach and taken to Gretna Green. A second lie that her father's fortune depended on marriage to Wakefield persuaded her to agree to a marriage ceremony. After they were caught by angry relatives at Calais en route for Paris. . After being tried and found guilty the brothers were sentenced to three years apiece . An act of parliament was needed to annul the marriage because according to Scottish law it had been perfectly legal despite the fact it had not been consummated. The case had attracted immense attention and the reputations of the brothers appeared for ever blighted. . However imprisonment proved ironically to be Wakefield's salvation. Given the time for reflection he began the transition from vain and arrogant gadfly to serious student of society and its ills although he remained arrogant and ill-tempered. Part of his time was spent talking to prisoners and discussing the usefulness of imprisonment and in particular capital punishment. His ideas were later published in Facts Relating to the Punishment of Death in the Metropolis 1831 and in evidence to the select committee on secondary punishments 1831. In both he condemned the use of capital punishment for all but the most serious crimes and sought to emphasize the certainty of punishment as the deterrent rather than the harshness of the penalty. His other occupation a corollary of his studies on the causes of crime was to devise a programme of systematic colonization" O.D.N.B. Commencing in 1829-30 Wakefield became through a series of "brilliantly imaginative" writings an influential proponent of colonization offering "a plan based on six principles to overcome the problems of over-population identified by Malthus. Colonies he wrote were unprofitable because they suffered from a scarcity of labour the reverse of the situation in Britain. Emigration must therefore be encouraged" O.D.N.B. Thereafter he became a leading figure in the British colonization of Australia New Zealand and Canada. He "irrevocably altered the temper and style of the British empire in the nineteenth century. He brought to the subject a spark of imaginative genius the vision of systematic colonization and joined it to a far-sighted emphasis on the merits of colonial self-government" O.D.N.B.
