White Stripes - Complete John Peel Sessions CD
The White Stripes bola americká rocková dvojica založená v roku 1997 v meste Detroit. Jej členmi boli Jack White a Meg White. Potom, ako vydali niekoľko albumov a singlov sa v roku 2002 dostali do väčšieho povedomia verejnosti ako súčasť garage rock revival scény.
Vôbec prvé oficiálne vydanie The White Stripes Peel Sessions. Zachytenie Jacka a Meg na priepasti medzinárodného renomé v rozruchu „White Blood Cells“, ich dve živé relácie so známym DJ-om BBC Johnom Peelom sú pravdepodobne najlepším dokumentom White Stripes tej doby. Keďže boli tieto nahrávky od prvého vysielania v roku 2001 značne pašované, tešia sa ich prvému autorizovanému vydaniu na oslavu ich 15. výročia.

Muž, který pozoroval nebe
Na nároží jedné z nejznámějších ulic v Antofagastě se každé ráno postaví muž a jen zírá do nebe. S ním všechno začíná.
Mladý pouliční kreslíř a půvabná kejklířka se snaží odhalit tajemství tohoto podivného muže, a proto ho doprovodí na jeho cestě do San Pedra de Atacama. Chci zemřít blahořečený tamními nebesy, svěří se jim. Společně se vydají do pouště, kde se střetnou s tragickou minulostí a odhalí skutečný a neodvolatelný motiv starcovy pouti na sever.
Rivera Letelier dokázal napsat prózu stejně tak průzračnou, jako je jeden z ústředních protagonistů celého příběhu: nebe chilského severu.
The Complete Tutankhamun
A fully updated and revised edition of a classic bestseller: the definitive guide to Tutankhamun and his tomb - what it contained, why, and what it means today.
On 4 November 1922, Lord Carnarvon and Howard Carter's long search in Egypt's Valley of the Kings drew to a triumphant close: Tutankhamun's tomb had been found. As news of the discovery spread, and as images of the breathtaking treasures began to circulate, this once-obscure pharaoh would capture the imagination of the entire world.
A hundred years on, and both the fascination and the drama continue. Scientific research has pushed forward, and the results have been impressive: the tomb's ground-plan and setting are now fully remapped; CT-scanning and aDNA have begun to shed their unique light on Tutankhamun in life and in death; super-accurate recordings have been secured of the Burial Chamber's decorated walls; and we possess at last high-quality photography of Pharaoh's possessions. Our access to Carnarvon and Carter's extraordinary find is greater today than it has ever been, and from this fuller evidence comes one new realization among many - that both the tomb and its treasures had been intended for someone else.
In this new edition of his landmark book Egyptologist Nicholas Reeves revisits Tutankhamun in the context of his time, the excavators in the context of theirs, and every aspect, old and new, of the tomb's discovery, archaeology, architecture and art. If what was discovered in 1922 had the ability to amaze, then what has been discovered since will simply astonish.

Bruegel. The Complete Works
The life and times of Pieter Bruegel the Elder (c. 1526/30–1569) were marked by stark cultural conflict. He witnessed religious wars, the Duke of Alba’s brutal rule as governor of the Netherlands, and the palpable effects of the Inquisition. To this day, the Flemish artist remains shrouded in mystery. We know neither where nor exactly when he was born. But while early scholarship emphasized the vernacular character of his painting and graphic work, modern research has attached greater importance to its humanistic content.
Starting out as a print designer for publisher Hieronymus Cock, Bruegel produced numerous print series that were distributed throughout Europe. These depicted vices and virtues alongside jolly peasant festivals and sweeping landscape panoramas. He would eventually increasingly turn to painting, working for the cultural elite of Antwerp and Brussels.
This monograph is a testament to Bruegel’s evolution as an artist, one who bravely confronted the issues of his day all the while proposing new inventions and solutions. Rather than idealizing reality, he addressed the horrors of religious warfare and took a critical stand against the institution of the Church. To this end, he developed his own pictorial language of dissidence, lacing innocuous everyday scenes with subliminal statements in order to escape repercussions.
This collection captures all the breadth and splendid detail of Bruegel’s oeuvre like never before, and gathers all 40 paintings, 65 drawings, and 89 engravings in pristine reproductions?each piece a unique witness to both the religious mores and the close-knit folk culture of Bruegel’s time.
