![]() ![]() Since their discovery 150 years ago, Neanderthals have gone from the losers of the human family tree to A-list hominins. This book sheds new light on where they lived, what they ate, and the increasingly complex Neanderthal culture that researchers have discovered. ![]() "Kindred is important reading not just for anyone interested in these ancient cousins of ours, but also for anyone interested in humanity."- The New York Times Book Review " bold and magnificent attempt to resurrect our Neanderthal kin."- The Wall Street Journal In Kindred, Neanderthal expert Rebecca Wragg Sykes shoves aside the cliché of the shivering ragged figure in an icy wasteland, and reveals the Neanderthal you don't know, our ancestor who lived across vast and diverse tracts of Eurasia and survived through hundreds of thousands of years of massive climate change. ![]() ![]() ![]() Baxandall is certainly not the first to consider how an audience views a painting. The pioneer of this was Johann Joachim Winckelmann in his History of the Art of Antiquity (1764). As the history of art was emerging discipline Art came to be seen as the embodiment of a distinctive expression of particular societies and civilisations. In reality it is three books in one.īaxandall brings together many strands of previous art historical methodology and moves them forward in Painting and Experience. It may have been published as a book with three chapters. Since publication it has been described in such favourable terms as being ‘intelligent, persuasive, interesting, and lucidly argued’ to ‘concise and tightly written, and being found to ‘present new and important material’. Although relatively short it has subsequently been published in numerous languages, most recently Chinese, with a second edition published in 1988. Baxandall’s Painting and Experience in Fifteenth-Century Italy: A Primer in the Social History of Pictorial Style was first published in 1972. ![]() ![]()

Born in 1960, he grew up in Highgate, North London, and eventually went to University College where he dabbled in genetics and listened to Joy Division. ![]() But Roderick surprised himself by working on a book with help from an old university friend and, in 2005, he self-published it as The Highfield Mole, which caught the attention of Roderick Gordon is the author of the Tunnels series of books.

How can the two countries she loves hate each other so much? And will she ever get to visit her beautiful island again? When the hostility between Cuba and the United States erupts at the Bay of Pigs Invasion, Margarita's worlds collide in the worst way possible. Words and images are her constant companions, friendly and comforting when the children at school are not. But most of the time she lives in Los Angeles, lonely in the noisy city and dreaming of the summers when she can take a plane through the enchanted air to her beloved island. Her heart lies in Cuba, her mother's tropical island country, a place so lush with vibrant life that it seems like a fairy tale kingdom. ![]() ![]() In this poetic memoir, which won the Pura Belpr Author Award, was a YALSA Nonfiction Finalist, and was named a Walter Dean Myers Award Honoree, acclaimed author Margarita Engle tells of growing up as a child of two cultures during the Cold War. ![]() ![]() Single-volume popular histories of military operations and naval operations written by civilian writers were to be produced for the general public but Sir John Fortescue was dismissed for slow work on the military volume and his draft was not published. ![]() The History of the Great War Military Operations volumes were originally intended as a technical history for military staff. ![]() The first "army" publication, Military Operations: France and Belgium 1914 Part I and a separate map case were published in 1922 and the final volume, The Occupation of Constantinople were published in 2010. ![]() Work had begun on the series in 1915 and in 1920, the first volumes of Naval Operations and Seaborne Trade, were published. Edmonds wrote many of the army volumes and influenced the choice of historians for the navy, air force, medical and veterinary volumes. It was produced by the Historical Section of the Committee of Imperial Defence from 1915 to 1949 after 1919 Brigadier-General Sir James Edmonds was Director. The History of the Great War Based on Official Documents by Direction of the Committee of Imperial Defence (abbreviated to History of the Great War or British Official History) is a series of 109 volumes, concerning the war effort of the British state during the First World War. ![]() ![]() As I have found more than once, many preeminent Polish humanities scholars, researchers of the literature of bygone days, think of him as their esteemed colleague from England, a regular participant at international conferences and symposia, and the author of invaluable sources for researchers of the European Renaissance and the Baroque. And he has worked hard enough, producing an extremely diversified and rich oeuvre, to gain our highest appreciation. ![]() Let me put it this way: Gömöri’s merits are yet to be fully recognised in our country. ![]() Moreover, he occupies a very special place in the select company of the most distinguished foreign friends of our culture, including the greatest Polonists and the finest translators of Polish literature, although his input should have earned him an even loftier rank than he has been given to date. He has a place in the Pantheon of those foreigners who have made particularly vital contributions to Polish culture, especially literature. There is no doubt that George Gömöri is held in high esteem in Poland, in literary circles no less than in the upper echelons of scholarship. ![]() ![]() Pero, aún más importante, es una de esas novelas que las lectoras no se cansan de recomendar y que año tras año votan entre sus preferidas.
