Hughes Bettany: There Was a Roman in
Your Garden / B

There Was a Roman in Your Garden

A history of the Romans in 20 buried treasures

How I Met My Soulmate

From the creator of Waiting for Spring comes a college romance that meditates on just what destiny means, and whether "the one" is really out there. A fresh and stylish spin on shojo manga! Yuuki and Iori have come up with a plan to help the distant lovers, Ibuki and Airi, to at least talk with each other! And what better place to do it than in the great outdoors--or rather, the comfort of glamping for these city folks. Sanae and Kaji are in for the ride, but Seno and Hiro also unexpectedly appear. With this large gathering, what kind of thoughts about love and destiny are going to be revealed?

Arkship Trilogy Book I

A Hole in The Sky

FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF EMPEROR OF ROME AND SPQR 'EastEnders for the 1st century AD... Beard's enthusiastic sense of wonder remains undimmed' THE TIMES 'The rock star scholar of Ancient Rome' FINANCIAL TIMES 'The reigning Queen of Classics' SPECTATOR What's exciting about a piece of bread 4,000 years old? Or some pots of paint abandoned in the eruption at Pompeii? Why should we be bothered with the distant past anyway? What's the point? The life, art and literature of ancient Greece and Rome have something to offer everyone. They are not the property of wealthy white men only. They make us wonder how to make sense of people who lived long ago (from angry landlords to giggling senators) - and to think harder about our own world, to look at it differently. In Talking Classics, Mary Beard points to the surprising connections between antiquity and the present. From revolutionaries to dictators, Bob Dylan to Beyoncé, she joins forces with the varied modern characters who have been transfixed by the ancient world. It's not compulsory, she argues, to be excited by antiquity, but it's a shame not to be. After half a century teaching and studying classics, she fills the book with lively stories, curious facts and some good gossip. Talking Classics explains why the deep past does really affect us all.

With newly told tales and a new introduction, this is a delightful collection of legendary stories from the distant, ancient worlds of Sumer and Babylon. Tales from a crucible of civilization – the pocket between the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers where language, astronomy, religion and mythology grew from some of the earliest cultures known to humankind. Undiscovered until 200 years ago, the stories, hymns and ancient king lists of Sumer and Babylon reveal a rich culture of city states, each with their own gods and tales of floods, adventures, the heavens and the netherworld. From myths of creation and love, and tales of Nisaba (Goddess of Writing) and Inana (or Ishtar), to stories of Everyday Folk and the famous Epic of Gilgamesh, this brand new collection offers lively and evocative tales retold by contemporary storytellers Fiona Collins and June Peters, and introduced by expert Professor Martin Worthington.

The Wonder of Life on Earth

How contemporary artist Glenn Ligon’s expansive body of work mines American history and literature to ask critical questions about modern culture. OCTOBER Files: Glenn Ligon presents the first compilation of critical discourse on the multimedia work of one of the most influential American artists of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Often citing or annotating past literary (e.g., James Baldwin), artistic (e.g., Andy Warhol), and musical (e.g., Steve Reich) interventions, Ligon’s practice imaginatively explores the contradictions of speech, vision, authorship, identity, blackness, and belonging in works that are at once historically resonant and materially sensuous. Spanning Ligon’s emergence in the postmodern multicultural milieu of New York in the late 1980s and early ‘90s, his starring turns at Documenta, the Venice Biennale, and other international exhibitions of the 2000–2010s, and his formative impact on both new and canonical art histories, this volume provides a comprehensive accounting of the questions central to his work in painting, sculpture, video, installation, and print. With texts by writers from Wayne Koestenbaum to Rizvana Bradley, this File not only plumbs the depths of Ligon’s oeuvre but also models the various approaches to critical writing that have defined art and culture of the past 30 years.

In the stillness of the cosmos exists a force both boundless and paradoxical - Shiva. More than a god, he is the formless essence that both creates and consumes the universe. His realms transcend time, his actions defy logic, yet within them lies a cosmic rhythm governing all beings. Shiva: God of Gods is a journey into the heart of Shaivism. With poetic depth and philosophical clarity, it traverses sacred terrain, from the thunderous stillness of Mount Kailash to Rudra's cosmic dance. The book is both a spiritual exploration and scholarly reflection, delving into the many faces of the Divine - the cultural significance of the linga, the meaning behind Shiva's images, his fierce yet loving relationship with Parvati, the symbolism of the third eye, and the wisdom found in texts such as the Shiva Sutras and the Puranas. Shiva invites readers to sit in the shadow of the ultimate yogi, who holds the cosmos within his breath. Embrace the paradox, touch the infinite, and enter a world where destruction births creation, and every end gives rise to a new beginning.
