ISBN: 9780198788690 / Angielski / Twarda / 560 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. On the accession of Louis XIII in 1610 following the assassination of his father, the Bourbon dynasty stood on unstable foundations. For all of Henri IV's undoubted achievements, he had left his son a realm that was still prey to the ambitions of an aristocracy that possessed independent military force and was prepared to resort to violence and vendetta in order to defend its interests and honour. To establish his personal authority, Louis XIII was forced to resort to conspiracy and murder, and even then his authority was constantly challenged. Yet a little over a century later, as the reign...

Sura
ISBN: 9788394198503 / Polski / Miękka / 207 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Po arabsku słowo sura, w zależności od tego, czy rozpoczniemy je od litery sad czy sin, brzmi trochę inaczej i znaczy kolejno: obraz oraz fragment. W Syrii prośbę sura, sura! słyszeliśmy tysiąc i jeden raz. O fotografię dopraszali się młodzi wojacy, rodzice rannych w bombardowaniach, rozśpiewane dzieci z twarzami wymalowanymi kolorami rebelii. Więc migawka spadała jak gilotyna i odcinała cieniutki plasterek tamtego świata - jeszcze przez chwilę jakimś zapachem, dźwiękiem, nicią spojrzenia związany z całą resztą. Tak naświetlało się zdjęcie. Ale ta zdjęta z...

A Revolution Undone: Egypt's Road Beyond Revolt
ISBN: 9780190659738 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Amid the turbulence of the 2011 Arab uprisings, the revolutionary uprising that played out in Cairo's Tahrir Square created high expectations before dashing the hopes of its participants. The upheaval led to a sequence of events in Egypt that scarcely anyone could have predicted, and precious few have understood: five years on, the status of Egypt's unfinished revolution remains shrouded in confusion. Power shifted hands rapidly, first from protesters to the army leadership, then to the politicians of the Muslim Brotherhood, and then back to the army. The politics of the street has given way...
