The History of African Art - Suzanne Preston Blier

A concise, accessible and up-to-date overview of the arts of Africa from prehistoric times to the present day. This indispensable introductory guide explores the art of the African continent from its early origins over 150,000 years ago to the contemporary, set in the context of post-colonial debates, the restitution of cultural objects and artefacts, and the challenges of the present. This enormous and complex field of study, once under-appreciated by the Western art world, is now of global importance and an essential subject of education in art history.For ease of reference and analysis, this indispensable guide is structured chronologically into manageable and meaningful chapters covering ancient art, the Middle Ages, travel and trade, encounters with Europe in the age of exploration, the colonial era, the rebuilding of the continent in recent times, and contemporary art. It addresses core, continent-wide themes in African visual and cultural expression, from the life-cycle (motherhood, children, initiation, religion) to the body and representations of power dynamics. Important regional artistic expressions are also explored, such as the cultures of Mali (the Western Sudan), Nigeria (the lower Niger and Benue area), the Congo Basin and various nomadic populations across the continent.Written from an inclusive modern perspective, focusing not only on royal traditions but also the broader global history of the continent and its artistic practices, this is an excellent introduction for students, museum visitors and anyone with an interest in fine art, African history and cultural studies.

A festőművész - Öt érzék - Színek

Színes karakterek, ragyogó tájak és izgalmas kalandok: egy festőnő története a reneszánsz Firenzéből Bianca Gorini egyszerre mondhatja magát kivételesen szerencsés és szerencsétlen fiatal lánynak. Szerencsés, mivel Guliano de Medici törvénytelen lányaként és Lorenzo, a Magnifico unokahúgaként olyan tudáshoz juthat hozzá, amihez a kor ifjú hölgyei közül kevesen. Sőt, nagybátyja nagylelkűségének hála - aki korán felfedezi a lányban a tehetséges festőt -, a korszak legnagyobb mestereitől tanulhat. Természetesen titokban... De Bianca szerencsétlen is, mert a Pazzi-összeesküvés során nemcsak apját veszíti el, de a felfordulást kihasználva anyjával is végez annak régi szerelme, aki sosem heverte ki a visszautasítást, amiben része volt. Felserdülve pedig kénytelen végignézni, amint imádott városának lakóit - akik nem sokkal korábban még az öröm, a szépség és a művészetek iránti rajongásnak éltek - megbabonázza a különc szerzetes, Girolamo Savonarola, aki hadat üzen nemcsak a Medicieknek, de a művészeteknek és a művészeknek is. És így magának Gorini kisasszonynak is, akinek menekülnie kell a nemrég virágzó nagyvárosból. Budai Lotti nagy sikerű Öt érzék-sorozatának második kötete ismét az érzékek és érzékszervek világába csábít minket, a történelem egyik legmeghatározóbb időszakába. A színeken, a látáson és a festészeten keresztül a 15. századi Itália titkai tárulnak fel az olvasók lelki szemeit előtt.

Bűntény az internátusban

Egy norfolki magániskolában Charlie Cavendish végzős diák váratlan halála borzolja a kedélyeket: a gimnázium igazgatója pedig mindent megtesz, hogy véletlen balesetnek állítsa be az eseményeket. A helyszínre érkezik Jazz Hunter, a környéken új életet kezdő nyomozónő. Bár feltett szándéka, hogy otthagyja a rendőri pályát, egykori főnöke kérésére mégis elvállalja az ügyet. Ahogy társával, Alistair Miles őrmesterrel egyre mélyebbre ásnak a bentlakásos iskola ügyeiben, Charlie személyiségét megismerve rá kell jönniük, hogy a kisebb diákokat bántalmazó, arrogáns fiú halálát sokan kívánhatták. Az események újabb, váratlan fordulatot vesznek, és lassan fény derül az iskola történetének sötét titkára is. Jazz eddigi pályafutásának legizgalmasabb nyomozásában találja magát, miközben szembe kell néznie a saját múltjából visszatérő árnyakkal is... A hét nővér-sorozat sikerszerzője ezúttal a klasszikus krimi területére vezeti az olvasóit.

Mountain Men: A History of the Remarkable Climbers and Determined Eccentrics Who First Scaled the World's Most Famous Pe...

Traversing a century of climbing that begins with Victorian enthusiasts and ends with the conquerors of the Himalayan peaks, Mountain Men tells the stories of the extraordinary men who were the first to climb the world's best-known mountains: the Matterhorn, McKinley, Everest, and K2. Edward Whymper's relentless siege of the Matterhorn ended in controversy when four of his companions plunged to their deaths an hour after leaving the summit. In Alaska there have been many disputed claims to the first conquest of Mt. McKinley, and locals still insist that the honor belongs to three miners who climbed on a bet, armed with homemade climbing irons and bags of donuts. For a hundred years mountaineers have fallen victim to the fatal attraction of K2. An Italian aristocrat, an American millionaire, and an English Satanist were among the first to reach its slopes. They found a place of

Na konci októbra - Wright Lawrence

V zajateckom tábore v Indonézii zomrie štyridsaťsedem ľudí na hemoragickú horúčku. Spočiatku informácii málokto pripisuje význam, v podobných lokalitách sú epidémie časté. Zarážajúci je však vekový priemer obetí a vysoká smrtnosť. Mikrobiológovi a epidemiológovi Henrymu Parsonsovi sa zľahčovanie situácie nepozdáva, a tak sa vydá priamo do ohniska nákazy. To, čo tam nájde, bude mať zakrátko ničivé globálne následky. Prvoradé je teraz vystopovať nakazeného muža mieriaceho na každoročnú hadždž do Mekky medzi milióny pútnikov. Svet napriek snahe zachvacuje pandémia a ruská emigrantka, dnes už vysokopostavená osoba na ministerstve vnútornej bezpečnosti USA, radí prezidentovi, ako reagovať na možnú biologickú vojnu. Je pravda, že smrtiaci vírus vyvinuli v ruských laboratóriách v snahe rozpútať medzinárodný konflikt? A akú úlohu zohrávajú pri jeho šírení biologické zbrane? Pliaga sa šíri po celom svete, odstavuje inštitúcie – vedecké, náboženské, vládne – a hubí obyvateľstvo. Rozbehnutý vlak sa už nedá zastaviť. Lawrence Wright nám ponúka jedinečný, napínavý triler plný fascinujúcej histórie, ktorý v kontexte súčasnej pandemickej situácie vo svete naberá celkom nový rozmer.

On the Dangerous Edge: British and Canadian Trench Raiding on the Western Front 1914-1918 Radley Kenneth

This subject appeals not only because it is dramatic and controversial, but also because of the complexity, uncertainty and unpredictability of raiding. Leadership was critical since raiding posed many challenges including vicious hand-to-hand fighting most often at night in unfamiliar trenches. These are just some of the reasons why raids are high in "human interest."The book examines the nature, purposes, mechanics, execution and value of trench raiding. In this it succeeds admirably. It is also unique in three aspects. First, it shares the originality that features so strongly in all of Radley's books. This in itself is appealing given that all too many books today seem to be less original that they are reiterative. While there have been in the past two accounts of raiding, in this latest work originality shines through in Radley's choice and use of sources; in the imaginative
