Courting the Alhambra: Cross-Disciplinary Approaches to the Hall of Justice Ceilings
ISBN: 9789004173422 / Angielski / Miękka / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The ceiling paintings in the Hall of Justice of the Alhambra have not received serious scholarly attention for the past thirty years, perhaps due to their difficult incorporation into a discrete program of Christian vs. Islamic art, categories that until recently remained unchallenged themselves. The Alhambra itself continues to elicit the interest of many scholars, and several recent interpretations of the function of the Palace of the Lions, which houses the paintings, have been put forth. This collection brings together art historians, literary critics and historians who suggest new ways...

Creativitree: Design Ideas for Family Trees
ISBN: 9780806351186 / Angielski / Miękka / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In deciding which books and articles to include in this collection, the compiler's rule of thumb was to include family histories whose progenitors and early descendants, at least, could be documented as having Huguenot ancestry. About 700 titles are cited in all, and they are arranged in alphabetical order of the principal family of the genealogy. In each case the citation gives the full title of the work, the author, year and sometimes place of publication, and, in the case of articles from journals, the volume and issue of the periodical.

ISBN: 9789042027312 / Angielski / Miękka / 231 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The volume argues for a view of the long nineteenth century as a century of lively cultural dialogue and exchange...

Great Singers: An Endangered Species
ISBN: 9780761853916 / Angielski / Miękka / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book supplies detailed explanations for young singers, teachers, and professional singers with "troubled" voices. Striny's previous book, Head First, discussed this process but without specific instructions to accomplish the task. This completely original process was conceived by Striny to correct major problems in his voice that had been caused by two separate voice teachers. The content of the process and the suggested duration of time duplicate exactly what his self-study called for in both cases. Readers will feel in tune with a philosophy generated through this endeavor, which...
