Art of the Baltic States
A lavishly illustrated reference on a little-known chapter in art history - the art of the three Baltic States, covering a wide range of mediums, movements and styles.
The Baltic States - Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia - retain strong cultural identities that have survived despite centuries of colonization by powerful neighbouring lands. By the late 19th and early 20th centuries, artists and writers were starting to reclaim and promote their own artistic heritage as radically distinct from that of the invading nations, with pioneers such as M. K. Ciurlionis and Vilhelms Purvitis demonstrating rare originality in their work. In the wake of the First World War, the three Baltic countries regained their autonomy, and the 1920s and 30s became a rich period of openness and international artistic exchange. Modernism in all its forms flourished, not only in painting but in sculpture, printmaking, photomontage and the decorative arts, ranging from the elegant abstraction of Arnold Akberg to the provocative figuration of Karlis Padegs and the experimental photography of Domicele Tarabildiene.
Art of the Baltic States is organized into three main chapters, documenting the history of art in each country. Enriched with illustrations from important museum collections, Fauchereau covers key art movements as well as their complex historical background, from time under the Czars and the German crown to the invasion by the Soviet Union and beyond. With each country showcased in its own lavishly illustrated section, this is a wonderful guide to a vibrant field in European art history that is often overlooked but deserves rediscovery and a place on the global stage.

The kocsma
Egy falu kiissza magát a szegénységből.
Ennyi tudható a szerzőről:
Régen - amikor még egy svábhegyi villában lakott, és kétszer is felterjesztették a Kossuth-díjra - valószínűtlenül jóképű volt. Viszont, nem hibátlan jellem: nem tud ellenállni a Szépségnek (a feszes, körte alakú melleknek). Gyakran nősül.
Szakmájában fiatalon nevet szerzett: egyetemen tanított, rendszeresen publikál. Néhány szót - a szerinte szent főneveket - csak nagy kezdőbetűvel ír le. Egyszer azt nyilatkozta, ha majd megértik ezek igazi jelentését, megtudják sikere titkát.
Bukása után egy isten háta mögötti faluba költözött. Tengődik, csak árnyéka egykori önmagának. Egy jónak mondható tulajdonsága maradt - a többit kilúgozta belőle a Pálinka - részegen nem hazudik.
The Earl of Morrey
Letty Fordyce knows three things about her future husband:
Lord Morrey is a dangerous man.
He frightens her.
She desires him.
Adam Beaumont, the Earl of Morrey, is full of dark secrets. His brooding and mysterious allure draw women to him like moths to a flame. But he fears he can never marry, not when his secret life is full of constant danger.
Letty doesn't want to be like other women, she wants a life for herself and a happy marriage to a respectable man, not someone with secrets like Lord Morrey. Yet from the moment she meets the charming rogue and he steals a kiss, she can't think of anyone else.
When a night of terror sends her into Adam's arms, she'll be forced to choose between the life she thought she wanted and the man she's falling in love with.

Diablo: Tales from the Horadric Library
While the Eternal Conflict rages forever on, horror and superstition of a purely Sanctuary variety still prey on the hearts of its people. The Horadric Order has been tasked with recording any knowledge that could prove useful, whether it’s a local legend, a cautionary tale, or a story of the darkest horror. Now, the vaults are open. Direct from the Diablo development team and horror’s preeminent minds comes Tales from the Horadric Library, a short story collection exploring the deepest, darkest corners of Sanctuary.
The Woodlanders
The story takes place in a small woodland village called Little Hintock, and concerns the efforts of an honest woodsman, Giles Winterborne, to marry his childhood sweetheart, Grace Melbury. Although they have been informally betrothed for some time, her father has made financial sacrifices to give his adored only child a superior education and no longer considers Giles good enough for her. When the new doctor – a well-born and handsome young man named Edred Fitzpiers – takes an interest in Grace, her father does all he can to make Grace forget Giles, and to encourage what he sees as a brilliant match.

The Penguin Book of Spiritual Verse
An inspiring new selection of poems exploring faith and the divine, featuring poets from across the world, from antiquity to the present
Poets have always looked to the skies for inspiration, and have written as a way of getting closer to the power and beauty they sense in nature, in each other and in the cosmos. This anthology is a holistic and global survey of a lyric conversation about the divine, one which has been ongoing for millennia.
Beginning with the earliest attributable author in all of human literature, the twenty-third century BC Sumerian High Priestess Enheduanna, and taking in a constellation of voices - from King David to Lao Tzu, from the Epic of Gilgamesh to the Malian Epic of Sundiata - this selection presents a number of canonical voices like Blake, Dickinson and Tagore, alongside lesser-anthologized diverse voices going up to the present day, that showcase the breathtaking multiplicity of ways humanity has responded to the divine across place and time.
These poets' voices commune between millenia, offering readers a chance to experience for themselves the vast and powerful interconnectedness of these incantations orbiting the most elemental of all subjects - our spirit.

The Government of No One
'The standard book on anarchism for the twenty-first century. Written with brio, quiet insight and clarity' Carl Levy
A magisterial study of the history and theory of one of the most controversial political movements
Anarchism routinely gets a bad press. It's usually seen as meaning chaos and disorder -- or even nothing at all. And yet, from Occupy Wall Street to Pussy Riot, Noam Chomsky to David Graeber, this philosophical and political movement is as relevant as ever. Contrary to popular perception, different strands of anarchism -- from individualism to collectivism -- do follow certain structures and a shared sense of purpose: a belief in freedom and working towards collective good without the interference of the state.
In this masterful, sympathetic account, political theorist Ruth Kinna traces the tumultuous history of anarchism, starting with thinkers and activists such as Peter Kropotkin and Emma Goldman and through key events like the Paris Commune and the Haymarket affair. Skilfully introducing us to the nuanced theories of anarchist groups from Russia to Japan to the United States, The Government of No One reveals what makes a supposedly chaotic movement particularly adaptable and effective over centuries -- and what we can learn from it.

Dance Of The Forest
Dance Of The Forest is the third in a trilogy of poetry collections – If The Sky Weeps, There’s No More Sky To Eat and Dance Of The Forest – in which the poet addresses issues concerning the environment.
While the first two collections deal with how man has been provoking the earth and her environment and how the earth has been reacting to this provocation, this third collection is built on hope – the hope of a future regenerated earth that can be actualized only when man retraces his steps from the onslaught against Nature.
