Museum of Seraphs in Torment: An Egyptological Fantasy Thriller
ISBN: 9781481132497 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 332 str.

Scrawled writings from his cell hint at a lost treasure known as King Solomon's Wand-an artifact that Hammond claims somehow links the Egyptian prince Khaemwaset, son of pharaoh Ramses the Great, with otherworldly visitors called the Seraphs.

Story-Telling Techniques in the Arabian Nights
ISBN: 9789004095304 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

The study demonstrates that significantly different versions have survived of some of the most famous tales from the Nights. Pinault notes how individual manuscript redactors employed -- and sometimes modified -- formulaic phrases...

Notes from the Fortune-Telling Parrot: Islam and the Struggle for Religious Pluralism in Pakistan
ISBN: 9781845533465 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book explores the richness of Pakistans religious landscape, giving attention to a number of topics: Shia flagellation processions, Urdu-language pulp fiction, streetside rituals involving animals (pariah-kites and fortune-telling parrots), and the use of sorcery to contend with the jinns that are believed to infest cities such as Lahore.

The book looks at...
