Last King in India: Wajid Ali Shah
ISBN: 9781849044080 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Last King in India is the story of an extraordinary man whose memory still divides opinion sharply today. Was he, as the British described him, a debauched ruler who spent his time with "fiddlers, eunuchs and women' instead of running the kingdom? Or, as most Indians believe, a gifted poet whose works are still quoted today, and who was robbed of his throne by the East India Company?
Somewhere in between the two extremes lies a complex character: a man who married over 350 women, directed theatrical events lasting a month, and built a fairytale palace in Lucknow. Wajid Ali Shah was... The Last King in India is the story of an extraordinary man whose memory still divides opinion sharply today. Was he, as the British described him, a ...

Wielcy Królowie Persji rządzili największym imperium starożytności, rozciągającym się od Libii po stepy Azji i od Sudanu po Pakistan. Sercem ich państwa było legendarne miasto-pałac Persepolis, gdzie achemenidzcy monarchowie utrzymywali pełen niezrównanego przepychu dwór. To stamtąd Cyrus Wielki, Dariusz, Kserkses oraz ich następcy ogłaszali prawa, wysyłali armie i władali swym wielokulturowym imperium. Achemenidzi byli jednak też jednym z wielkich dysfunkcyjnych rodów w dziejach. Bracia bezwzględnie...

Aphrodite's Tortoise: The Veiled Woman of Ancient Greece
ISBN: 9780954384531 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Greek women routinely wore the veil. That is the unexpected finding of this meticulous study, one with interesting implications for the origins of Western civilisation. The Greeks, popularly (and rightly) credited with the invention of civic openness, are revealed as also part of a more Eastern tradition of seclusion. Llewellyn-Jones' work proceeds from literary and, notably, from iconographic evidence. In sculpture and vase painting it demonstrates the presence of the veil, often covering the head, but also more unobtrusively folded back onto the shoulders. This discreet fashion not only...

An essential new account of how anti-submarine warfare is conducted, with a focus on both historic and present-day operations.
