R3,382 Discovery Miles 33 820 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Metaphysics of Children's Literature is the first sustained study of ways in which children's literature confronts metaphysical questions about reality and the nature of what there is in the world. In its exploration of something and nothing, this book identifies a number of metaphysical structures in texts for young people-such as the ontological exchange or nowhere in extremis-demonstrating that their entanglement with the workings of reality is unique to the conditions of children's literature. Drawing on contemporary children's literature discourse and metaphysicians from Heidegger and Levinas, to Bachelard, Sartre and Haraway, Lisa Sainsbury reveals the metaphysical groundwork of children's literature. Authors and illustrators covered include: Allan and Janet Ahlberg, Mac Barnett, Ron Brooks, Peter Brown, Lewis Carroll, Eoin Colfer, Gary Crew, Roald Dahl, Roddy Doyle, Imme Dros, Sarah Ellis, Mem Fox, Zana Fraillon, Libby Gleeson, Kenneth Grahame, Armin Greder, Sonya Hartnett, Tana Hoban, Judy Horacek, Tove Jansson, Oliver Jeffers, Jon Klassen, Elaine Konigsburg, Norman Lindsay, Geraldine McCaughrean, Robert Macfarlane, Jackie Morris, Edith Nesbit, Mary Norton, Jill Paton Walsh, Philippa Pearce, Ivan Southall, William Steig, Shaun Tan, Tarjei Vesaas, David Wiesner, Margaret Wild, Jacqueline Woodson and many others.

Lisa Sainsbury
R4,581 Discovery Miles 45 810 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Featuring close readings of selected poetry, visual texts, short stories and novels published for children since 1945 from Naughty Amelia Jane to Watership Down, this is the first extensive study of the nature and form of ethical discourse in British children's literature. Ethics in British Children's Literature explores the extent to which contemporary writing for children might be considered philosophical, tackling ethical spheres relevant to and arising from books for young people, such as naughtiness, good and evil, family life, and environmental ethics. Rigorously engaging with influential moral philosophers, from Aristotle through Kant and Hegel, to Arno Leopold, Iris Murdoch, Mary Midgley, and Lars Svendsen, this book demonstrates the narrative strategies employed to engage young readers as moral agents.

Reference is a central topic in philosophy of language, and has been the main focus of discussion about how language relates to the world. R. M. Sainsbury sets out a new approach to the concept, which promises to bring to an end some long-standing debates in semantic theory. There is a single category of referring expressions, all of which deserve essentially the same kind of semantic treatment. Included in this category are both singular and plural referring expressions ('Aristotle', 'The Pleiades'), complex and non-complex referring expressions ('The President of the USA in 1970', 'Nixon'), and empty and non-empty referring expressions ('Vulcan', 'Neptune'). Referring expressions are to be described semantically by a reference condition, rather than by being associated with a referent. In arguing for these theses, Sainsbury's book promises to end the fruitless oscillation between Millian and descriptivist views. Millian views insist that every name has a referent, and find it hard to give a good account of names which appear not to have referents, or at least are not known to do so, like ones introduced through error ('Vulcan'), ones where it is disputed whether they have a bearer ('Patanjali') and ones used in fiction. Descriptivist theories require that each name be associated with some body of information. These theories fly in the face of the fact names are useful precisely because there is often no overlap of information among speakers and hearers. The alternative position for which the book argues is firmly non-descriptivist, though it also does not require a referent. A much broader view can be taken of which expressions are referring expressions: not just names and pronouns used demonstratively, but also some complex expressions and some anaphoric uses of pronouns. Sainsbury's approach brings reference into line with truth: no one would think that a semantic theory should associate a sentence with a truth value, but it is commonly held that a semantic theory should associate a sentence with a truth condition, a condition which an arbitrary state of the world would have to satisfy in order to make the sentence true. The right analogy is that a semantic theory should associate a referring expression with a reference condition, a condition which an arbitrary object would have to satisfy in order to be the expression's referent. Lucid and accessible, and written with a minimum of technicality, Sainsbury's book also includes a useful historical survey. It will be of interest to those working in logic, mind, and metaphysics as well as essential reading for philosophers of language.

Hardbound. This volume begins with two chapters concerned with the chemistry of medium and large heterocyclic rings, including lactones and lactams. This work also explores host-guest relationships within macrocycles embodying oxygen and nitrogen atoms. The authors responsible for bringing together recent progress in the chemistry of this wide assembly of compounds are Dr MacBride and his colleagues Drs Grayson and Kelly. Drs Ewing and McKenzie then survey then survey recent advances in purine chemistry and that of the attendant nucleosides. This chapter naturally leads on to a focused survey of nucleosides and nucleotides. Dr Cosstick contributed a chapter on these major subject areas to the First Supplement and he agreed to review the same subjects in this volume. Professor Pfleiderer is the world's authority on pteridine chemistry and his chapter does more than simply update work on these alkaloids. As a result of his intimate knowledge this author is

R5,228 Discovery Miles 52 280 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Hardbound. In this volume, Drs. Parrick and Shaw have upgraded their earlier chapter on pyridazines, cinnolines and Dr Hurst and Dr McCullough have done the same for their chapters on the subjects of pyrimidines and quinazolines and pyrazines, respectively. Dr Bolton has contributed to this series several times before, but not on the subject of phenazine, oxazine and thiazine sulfur dyes. However, his wide experience in heterocyclic chemistry enabled him to analyse recent progress in this area without difficulty and with his customary skill. Professor Johne returns to one of his research interests, quinazoline alkaloids, while Professor O'Shea completes the volume with a timely review of six-membered rings with three or more heteroatoms: triazines, tetrazines, pentazines and hexazines.

R3,376 Discovery Miles 33 760 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Focusing on the mythological narratives that influence Irish children's literature, this book examines the connections between landscape, time and identity, positing that myth and the language of myth offer authors and readers the opportunity to engage with Ireland's culture and heritage. It explores the recurring patterns of Irish mythological narratives that influence literature produced for children in Ireland between the nineteenth and the twenty-first centuries. A selection of children's books published between 1892, when there was an escalation of the cultural pursuit of Irish independence and 2016, which marked the centenary of the Easter 1916 rebellion against English rule, are discussed with the aim of demonstrating the development of a pattern of retrieving, re-telling, remembering and re-imagining myths in Irish children's literature. In doing so, it examines the reciprocity that exists between imagination, memory, and childhood experiences in this body of work.

Hardbound. This volume has its core aspects of the chemistry of pyrrole and pyridine, plus their benzo derivatives and reduced forms. It begins with surveys of the natural occurrence, characterization and synthesis of pyrrolidine and pyrrolizidine alkaloids and progresses on to consider the structures of the new indole alkaloids identified since 1985. Alkaloids of the tropane type and those from plants of the Amaryllidacea family are surveyed next, and a skillfully crafted review of recent work in the porphyrin series is also featured.In the last two chapters the emphasis changes slightly and a significant contribution is a discussion of chemistry of the cyanine dyestuffs and that of their allies.

Hardbound. The publication of this volume covers current work on the syntheses and reactions of pyridines, quinolines and isoquinolines. Also included are chapters (chapters 28, 30, 31 and 32) which review recent progress in the chemistry of the pyridine, quinoline and isoquinoline alkaloids. The theoretical aspects of pyridine chemistry, which were covered in a separate chapter (chapter 23) in the 2nd Edition, are now incorporated into a separate single chapter (chapter 24), without division.Recent developments in the chemistry of six-membered heterocycles containing a single phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, or bismuth atom are also surveyed. Once again, the reader of Rodd will find this volume extremely valuable since it provides a concise, yet complete, survey of a major subject area of heterocyclic chemistry.
