In Shadow and Shelter: The Swamp in Southern Culture, Anthony Wilson examines the relationship between the ecological history of the southern swamp and the evolution of southern culture from the colonial era to the present. To early European colonists, the swamp was a place linked with sin and impurity. To the plantation elite, it was a practical obstacle to agricultural development.

How do you know what you know - or what you think you know? Have you ever wondered why you believe in God, why some people don’t believe in God, or what it means to be religious? How do you answer the question, “Who are you?” Norman Orr provides new ways to think about these questions and many more in this book that promotes the idea of embracing biological humanism.

The world is a complex place. A complex place where answers are sometimes hard to find. But in this podcast the economy professor Micael Dahlen asks the seemingly simple questions that lead you on a winding journey into the core of what it means to be a human being.

In this most original examination of America's post-9/11 culture, Susan Faludi shines a light on the country's psychological response to the attacks on that terrible day. Turning her observational powers on the media, popular culture, and political life, Faludi unearths a barely acknowledged but bedrock societal drama shot through with baffling contradictions. Why, she asks, did our culture respond to an assault against American global dominance with a frenzied summons to restore "traditional" manhood, marriage, and maternity?

Con "El legado de los monstruos" Ignacio Padilla quiere pensar el poder de los miedos para proyectarse en imágenes. Analiza entonces los artefactos y maquinarias que caracterizan a esa producción de los temores en la mitología, la ficción literaria y otras representaciones sociales. De ahí surge la idea de un "mercado pánico" como lugar de cruce en una economía del miedo ("recurso escandalosamente renovable"). Y se plantean las preguntas: ¿Por qué desde hace milenios consumimos tantos espantos reelaborados? ¿Qué motivaciones traen a nuestras vidas?

Il nostro mondo è fondato sul lavoro. Non solo esso garantisce la produzione e il consumo di beni e servizi più o meno essenziali, non solo è parte fondante della retorica politica, non solo occupa buona parte del nostro tempo. No. Il lavoro ci definisce come esseri umani, circoscrive le nostre aspirazioni e i nostri sogni, definisce le nostre abitudini, i nostri valori, il nostro benessere (o malessere) fisico e mentale. Ma non è sempre stato così, anzi, James Suzman dimostra che i nostri antenati cacciatori-raccoglitori lavoravano molto meno di noi.

"Comment la femme fait-elle l'apprentissage de sa condition, comment l'éprouve-t-elle, dans quel univers se trouve-t-elle enfermée, quelles évasions lui sont permises, voilà ce que je chercherai à décrire. Alors seulement nous pourrons comprendre quels problèmes se posent aux femmes qui, héritant d'un lourd passé, s'efforcent de forger un avenir nouveau."

"Nous commencerons par discuter les points de vue pris sur la femme par la biologie, la psychanalyse, le matérialisme historique. Nous essaierons de montrer ensuite positivement comment la "réalité féminine" s'est constituée, pourquoi la femme a été définie comme l'Autre et quelles en ont été les conséquences du point de vue des hommes."

One of the leading authorities on British archaeology, Barry Cunliffe, takes the listener on a fast-paced look at the ever-fascinating story of the Druids, as seen in the context of the times and places in which they practiced. Sifting through the evidence, Cunliffe offers an expert's best guess as to what can be said and what can't be said about the Druids, discussing the origins of the Druids and the evidence for their beliefs and practices, why the nature of the druid caste changed quite dramatically over time, and how successive generations have seen them in very different ways.

Anthropology is the organized study of what makes humans human. It takes an objective step back to ask questions like: Given our common characteristics, why aren't all of us exactly the same? And how can knowing the reasons behind our differences - as well as our similarities - teach us useful lessons for the future? The updated edition of Anthropology for Dummies gives you a panoramic view of the fascinating fieldwork and theory that seeks to answer these questions - and helps you view the human world through impartial, anthropological eyes.

We are proud to present a previously unreleased lecture featuring both Marion Woodman and Robert Bly on the subject of the sibling society!
