Opening Kailasanatha The Temple in Kanchipuram Revealed in Time and Space
Padma Kaimal, "Opening Kailasanatha: The Temple in Kanchipuram Revealed in Time and Space"
English | ISBN: 0295747773 | 2021 | 288 pages | PDF | 34 MB
Stone figures hardened by ascetic discipline and heroic effort face north in deep shadow. There they meet the gazes of the same gods and goddesses but with gentler bodies enacting grace, warmth, seduction, and marriage, drenched in sunlight, facing south. These figures adorn the eighth-century Kailasanatha temple complex in southeastern India, built by rulers who were both warriors and ascetics, engaged in the work of this world and in spiritual quests. They designed their temple as an exuberant visual feast to sustain both modes of being.

Open Standards and the Digital Age History, Ideology, and Networks
Andrew L. Russell, "Open Standards and the Digital Age: History, Ideology, and Networks "
English | ISBN: 1107039193 | 2014 | 326 pages | PDF | 3 MB
How did openness become a foundational value for the networks of the twenty-first century? Open Standards and the Digital Age answers this question through an interdisciplinary history of information networks that pays close attention to the politics of standardization. For much of the twentieth century, information networks such as the monopoly Bell System and the American military's Arpanet were closed systems subject to centralized control. In the 1970s and 1980s, however, engineers in the United States and Europe experimented with design strategies to create new digital networks. In the process, they embraced discourses of "openness" to describe their ideological commitments to entrepreneurship, technological innovation, and participatory democracy. The rhetoric of openness has flourished - for example, in movements for open government, open source software, and open access publishing - but such rhetoric also obscures the ways the Internet and other "open" systems still depend heavily on hierarchical forms of control.

Open Minds
Carolyn Evans, "Open Minds"
English | ISBN: 1760641634 | 2021 | 224 pages | EPUB | 849 KB
Recently the alarm has been raised - basic freedoms are under attack in our universities. A generation of 'snowflake' students are shutting out ideas that challenge their views. Ideologically motivated academics are promoting propaganda at the expense of rigorous research and balanced teaching. Universities are caving in and denying platforms to 'problematic' public speakers. Is this true, or is it panic and exaggeration?

On Cosmopolitanism and Forgiveness
Jacques Derrida, "On Cosmopolitanism and Forgiveness "
English | ISBN: 0415227119 | 2001 | 74 pages | PDF | 257 KB
One of the world's most famous philosophers, Jacques Derrida, explores difficult questions in this important and engaging book. Is it still possible to uphold international hospitality and justice in the face of increasing nationalism and civil strife in so many countries? Drawing on examples of treatment of minority groups in Europe, he skilfully and accessibly probes the thinking that underlies much of the practice, and rhetoric, that informs cosmopolitanism. What have duties and rights to do with hospitality? Should hospitality be grounded on a private or public ethic, or even a religious one? This fascinating book will be illuminating reading for all.

Antón M. Pazos, "Nineteenth-Century European Pilgrimages: A New Golden Age"
English | ISBN: 0367188627 | 2020 | 276 pages | PDF | 7 MB
During the Nineteenth-Century a major revival in religious pilgrimage took place across Europe. This phenomenon was largely started by the rediscovery of several holy burial places such as Assisi, Milano, Venice, Rome and Santiago de Compostela, and subsequently developed into the formation of new holy sites that could be visited and interacted with in a wholly Modern way. This uniquely wide-ranging collection sets out the historic context of the formation of contemporary European pilgrimage in order to better understand its role in religious expression today.
