Epoka Wielkich Królów.Kleopatra: kochanka, uwodzicielka i największa królowa Egiptu.

Była ostatnią z siedmiu Kleopatr, które rządziły Egiptem, zanim kraj został włączony do Cesarstwa Rzymskiego. Owe siedem Kleopatr napędzało dynastię Ptolemeuszy, macedoński...

Last King in India: Wajid Ali Shah
ISBN: 9781849044080 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 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...

King and Court in Ancient Persia 559 to 331 BCE
ISBN: 9780748641260 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The first Persian Empire (559-331 BCE) was the biggest land empire the world had seen, and seated at the heart of its vast dominions, in the south of modern-day Iran, was the person of the Great King. Immortalized in Greek literature as despotic tyrants, a new vision of Persian monarchy is emerging from Iranian, and other, sources (literary, visual, and archaeological), which show the Kings in a very different light. Inscriptions of Cyrus, Darius, Xerxes, and their heirs present an image of Persian rulers as liberators, peace-makers, valiant warriors, righteous god-fearing judges, and...

Aphrodite's Tortoise: The Veiled Woman of Ancient Greece
ISBN: 9780954384531 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 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.

This pattern was repeated in WWII until Allied anti-submarine countermeasures had forced the Germans to modify their existing U-boats with the schnorkel. Countermeasures along also pushed the development of high-speed U-boats capable of continuously submerged operations. This study...
