Conceptualizing Corruption in Ancient Athens and Rome

Collins New Naturalist Library

A cormorant holding its wings out to dry makes an ominous silhouette. There's something reptilian about these birds - almost prehistoric.

Routledge Critical Thinkers

Students in literary studies frequently come across Plato, Aristotle and Longinus, either directly through their names and concepts or indirectly, in the work of writers and theorists responding to them. Eaglestone argues that while great thinkers of antiquity may seem far away, their ideas still shape how we think about literature and culture even today. Contemporary examples illustrate the meaning of the original texts and highlight their continuous relevance.

Classical Philosophers on Literature

The questions posed by disability studies scholarship are increasingly of interest to medieval studies scholars and there have been a wealth of books published on the intersection of these two fields of research over the past two decades. More recently, medieval scholars have developed a framework for considering more specifically medieval ways of thinking about disability, analyzing the medieval conception of the different or 'othered' body and thinking through 'medieval things': such as the responses to injury and resulting impairment in contemporary law, literature, and art; the impaired body as a site for miraculous transformation; the presence of physical and mental difference in different cultural modes than exist in the modern world; and the role of theosophical thought in characterizing difference. This is the first volume to survey this field as a whole, bringing together the most notable scholars in the field alongside up-and-coming academics, to analyse recent studies and to suggest directions for future research. Chapters are organized into four categories that treat broadly the current questions of the field as they apply to each contributor's area of expertise: Articulations of Difference; Critical Perspectives; Traditions of Medieval Thought; and Disability and Material Cultures. Each category is introduced by a leading figure in the field, and the volume is concluded with an Afterword.

PRE-ORDER THE HEARTFELT TALE OF ONE WOMAN'S JOURNEY TO UNCOVER A FAMILY HISTORY BURIED BY SECRETS OF WAR AND TRAGEDY IN PAPERBACK NOW---------------------------------I would learn that when families tell stories, what they leave out re-defines what they keep in. With my family, these were not secrets intentionally withheld. Just truths too painful to confront. In the last years of her life, Teresa Lim's mother, Violet Chang, had copies of a cherished family photograph made for those in the portrait who were still alive. The photo is mounted on cream card with the name of the studio stamped at the bottom in Chinese characters. The place and date on the back: Hong Kong, 1935. Teresa would often look at this photograph, enticed by the fierceness and beauty of her great-aunt Fanny looking back at her. But Fanny never seemed to feature in the told and retold family stories. Why? she wondered. This photograph set Teresa on a journey to uncover her family's remarkable history. Through detective work, serendipity, and the kindness of strangers, she was guided to the fascinating, ordinary, extraordinary life of her great-aunt and her world of sworn spinsters, ghost husbands and the working-class feminists of 19th century south China. But to recover her great-aunt's past, we first must get to know Fanny's family, the times and circumstances in which they lived, and the momentous yet forgotten conflicts that would lead to war in Singapore and, ultimately, a long-buried family tragedy. The Interpreter's Daughter is a beautifully moving record of an extraordinary family history. For fans of Wild Swans, The Hare With Amber Eyes, and Falling Leaves this is the next classic in the making.

Die Interaktion von Nomaden und Sesshaften ist eine der Kontinuitätslinien, die das römische mit dem vandalischen und byzantinischen Nordafrika verbindet. Die vorliegende Studie untersucht militärische Konflikte, politische Integration und wirtschaftliche Verflechtungen zwischen Nomaden und Sesshaften vom 3. bis 6. Jh. Dabei wird deutlich, dass die in Nordafrika präsenten Staaten die politischen Beziehungen zu den Nomaden wirkungsvoll kontrollierten, nicht zuletzt mittels eines seit der Kaiserzeit entwickelten administrativen Instrumentariums. Das Kräfteverhältnis zwischen Staaten und Nomaden erweist sich als Frage der politischen Stärke oder Schwäche, der Präsenz oder Abwesenheit der Staaten auf der nordafrikanischen Bühne. Die spätantiken Quellen geben Einblick in ein breites Spektrum nomadischer Wirtschaftsstrukturen, von mobiler Viehwirtschaft bis hin zu Formen der "Beuteökonomie". Nomadismus und Sesshaftigkeit im spätantiken Nordafrika erweisen sich als eng verflochten; die Subsistenzsicherung sozialer Gemeinschaften konnte sich in einem Spektrum mit den Polen Nomadismus und Sesshaftigkeit bewegen. Die nomadischen gentes treten als eigentliche kulturgeschichtliche Konstante im antiken Nordafrika entgegen.

Toksvig's Atlas

The war in the Far East from 1939 to 1945, as witnessed first-hand by Scottish soldier and celebrated documentarian Harry BirrellFrom the moment he received a cine-camera at age 10, Harry Birrell devoted his life to documenting the world around him, including his enlistment and his adventures serving in the Burma, Nepal and India. Not only did he capture the war as he saw it, but he kept copious diaries from 1939 to 1945 so that his family would know what he had experienced in the event of his death. These unique record of the campaign are compelling, insightful, funny, charming, moving - all in equal measure. As a soldier posted with the Gurkhas for most of the war, Harry Birrell worked as a surveyor, mapping out the country as the war with the Japanese ebbed and flowed around him. While this might seem like it was away from any action, the job of creating these references for the fighting part of the army was critical and required him to be at the front line in order that the troops and their commanders had the most up to date and accurate maps as the war evolved. As a result, he has an unusual insider overview of that brutal campaign as well as wonderful insight into the Gurkhas under his command.
