Blackwell Companions: Philosophy, Religion, History / "Введения" по философии, религии, истории, культуре, литературе экономике, 62 книги [2001-2009, PDF]
Год выпуска: 2001-2009 Жанр: научно-учебная литература Издательство: Wiley-Blackwell Формат: PDF Качество: eBook (изначально компьютерное) Язык: английский (доб. 27.05.2009) Описание: Серия Companion'ов - "товарищей", "необходимых" дополнений к тем или иным авторам, течениям или произведениеям - одна из тенденций книгоиздания последних 2-3-х десятилетий. По форме эти тома - сборники статей или "коллективные монографии", по цели создания (читателю-адресату) - учебники, "введения"; по своей информативности они близки к энциклопедиям и справочным изданиям. В этом жанре с Blackwell-ом соревнуются несколько издательств: Сambridge UP, Oxford UP, и Routledge. Вопрос, "кто лучше?" не стоит - каждое издтельство предлагает свою трактовку соответствующих областей знания. Что касается философии, серия Кембриджа пока все-таки более полна - не только по тому, что удалось выложить на трекере, но и по всем изданным ими книгами в этой области.Издательства, кроме того, ведут разные серии подобных общеобразовательных, учебных книг. Кроме "компаньонов" (Companions) как введений более общего плана имеются также "гиды" (Guides), издания, посвященные более частным темам (наиболее известной работе / проблеме у того или иного мыслителя). Возможно, описание основных серий со временем будет выделено в специальную рубрику. Пока же смотрите об этом здесь (в одном из сообщений форума).Особенностями "компаньонов" от Блаквелла можно считать несколько большую "смелость" в выборе тем для своих книг. Так, например, у более консервативно ориентированного Оксфорда и Кэмбриджа нет подобных учебно-справочных изданий по африканской и англо-африканской философии. Впрочем, скорее всего, к смелости это не имеет никакого отношения. Всего лишь маркетинговый ход. Есть свои особенности в трактовке "философии". Так, например, если Кэмбридж упорно относит к философии экономистов вроде Маркса, Кейнса и Хайека, то Блаквелл, судя по всему, больше ориентирован на естественные науки (компаньоны по биологии и генетике). Неплохим решением явяляется, на мой взгляд, объединение "истории" и "литературы" античности.

A Companion to Art Theory. 552 P. ISBN: 0631207627
This survey of art theory in the context of Western visual art consists of 41 original essays written by experts in the field. Following an extensive introduction on the formation of modern art theory, the Companion is organized chronologically so that readers can trace developments of visual art theory, from Classical and Medieval sources and modern conceptions of art as they have been theorized since the Renaissance, through to some current theoretical preoccupations. In addition to outlining and describing various theoretical positions, the book's chapters articulate some assumptions that underpin them and raise more general questions about the nature of theorizing about art. In this way the Companion provides both an introduction to main themes of Western art theory and a source for critical enquiry into the purposes, possibilities and limitations of theory in the context of artistic practice. The work can also be used alongside the three Art in Theory anthologies published by Blackwell, as a further art theory resource.
