След бестселъра SPQR, в който Мери Биърд разказва историята на Древен Рим, Императорът на Рим се фокусира върху владетелите, управлявали Римската империя: от предвестника на едноличната власт Юлий Цезар (убит през 44 г. пр. Хр.) до момчето император Александър Север (убит през 235 г.). За разлика от традиционния подход, който проследява хронологично живота и управлението на императорите, робувайки на клишета като побъркания Калигула, чудовището Нерон, философа Марк Аврелий..., Мери Биърд акцентира върху характера на властта и нейния публичен образ. Каква власт са имали императорите в действителност? Наистина ли в ... |

"The textbook The Lingua Franca of Diplomacy: English for International Relations’ is a result of a years-long quest of the author for compiling a teaching aid of English for specific purposes in the fields of IR and foreign policy. This effort was necessitated by a practical reason - the absence of a relevant handbook, which has presented a major setback in the process of language training of bachelor degree students in IR and European Studies. Therefore, they constitute the main target group of potential users. It can also be of interest for students, specialising in Political Science, International Security, and ... |

Third supplemented edition. ... The purpose I pursue with this book is to compare the information that has come down to us from old writers and to draw some conclusions about the people who spread the Bulgarian state to the Balkans, without resorting to the numerous contemporary books that I have read and that fill my library. I do this not out of disrespect for the tremendous work of contemporary Bulgarian writers and historians, but out of a desire to make an independent assessment of events and to draw my own conclusions about the relationship and sequence of events and their consequences by reading only older authors. ... |

These essays bring together ideas and modes of expression from Vico, Hegel, Cassirer, and James Joyce. This work approaches philosophy as a form of literature and approaches literature as containing insights and images that supply a basis for philosophical thought. Philosophy and literature are both products of the rational imagination. The rational imagination provides a guide to the conception of the good society. By looking back at Plato's Laws, it is possible to conceive society as based on friendship rather than ideology. Considering the interrelationships among philosophy, society, and literature offers a ... |
