Perspective as Symbolic Form
Erwin Panofsky's Perspective as Symbolic Form is one of the great works of modern intellectual history, the legendary text that has dominated all art historical and philosophical discussions on the topic of perspective in this century. Finally available in English, it is an unrivaled example of Panofsky's early method that placed him within broader developments in theories of knowledge and cultural change. Here, drawing on a massive body of learning that ranges over Antique philosophy, theology, science, and optics as well as the history of art, Panofsky produces a type of 'archaeology' of Western representation that far surpasses the usual scope of art historical studies. Perspective in Panofsky's hands becomes a central component of a Western 'will to form,' the expression of a schema linking the social, cognitive, psychological, and especially technical practices of a given culture into harmonious and integrated wholes. Yet the perceptual schema of each historical culture or epoch

Slutplädering - Inblick I Rättssalen
Jag har aldrig ångrat att jag blev advokat. Det är särskilt stunderna i rättssalarna som blivit höjdpunkter. Rättssalen är tillvarons mest fascinerande rum. Här kan varje ord, en pausering, nära nog varje rörelse ha betydelse. Hösten 2026 har Peter Danowsky arbetat på advokatbyrå i 50 år. Uppdragen har varierat. Mycket har handlat om att vara ombud i tvister. Det mesta av advokatens arbete sker i det fördolda. Så har det varit också för Peter Danowsky, men här lättar han något på förlåten. Flera av hans mål har fått stor uppmärksamhet. Girjas-målet gällde samebyns rätt att bestämma över jakt- och fiske i området i stället för att staten skulle göra det, Spelmålet där Justitiekanslern hävdade att tidningen Expressens uppgifter om läggmatcher kränkte vissa ishockey- och bandyspelare, The Pirate Bay, som utmanade musik- och filmindustrin och HQ, som gällde intrikata aspekter på värdepappers redovisning. Ett särskilt intresse har varit yttrandefrihet och andra medierättsliga frågor. En vidsträckt yttrandefrihet behöver alltid försvaras, anser Peter Danowsky, som har haft många tillfällen till detta, bland annat som Expressens advokat.I boken ges inblickar i rättssalen och möten med personligheter som bland andra Bo Strömstedt, Ilon Wikland, Björn Borg, Mikael Persbrandt, Leif Silbersky och Henning Sjöström skildras. Intressant, lättsamt, eftertänksamt och med självdistans och glimten i ögat. Boken är mycket läsvärd och bör både välkomnas och läsas av jurister och andra. Därför önskar jag att hans trevliga och lättsamma bok läses av många, både jurister och samhällsengagerade.Torulf Arwidson i Magasinet Paragraf

A Mannequin for Christmas
A Christmas romance for Barbie fans who wished Ken and Allan got their own love story. Henry Aster swears he is unlucky when it comes to love. He thought he'd finally found The One, but a sudden break-up has left him hopeless right before the holiday season. Facing another family Christmas alone, Henry makes a wish for 'The Perfect Man.' The next morning, when he arrives at the Jersey Shore vintage shop he manages, he finds one of the male display mannequins has sprung to life and entirely wrecked the place. The magicked man is gorgeous, of course, but he comes with a Cinderella-style caveat: If he doesn't experience true, human love before the midnight chime on New Year's Eve, he will turn back into a mannequin for good. Now Henry doesn't have to show up to family Christmas alone. The catch? This new man--self-named Aidan Smith--knows nothing about being a human. Henry has one month to teach Aidan how to be a functioning person in the modern world and the swoony boyfriend that will
