Paperback. Condizione: Good. Published to accompany a major exhibition of his work, in Liverpool and St Petersburg, this study presents Salvador Dali's engagement with myth, legend and belief. Focusing mainly on the 1930s and early 1940s, during his involvement with the surrealist movement, it explores his illustration and adaptation of clasical, popular and Catholic narratives, his fascination with stories in collective ownership and his determined appropriation of them for the self-consciously orchestrated story of his own life. The book is edited by the exhibition's selectors. It examines Dali's work with myth from various historical, theoretical and mythological perspectives, with essays by acknowledged scholars including David Lomas, Robert Lubar and Jennifer Mundy. Fully illustrated with paintings, drawings, objects and prints brought together from the collections of the Tate Gallery and the Salvador Dali Museum, and from other major collections (private and public).…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Ancient Egypt has gripped the popular imagination like no other country and the lure of its pyramids and the Nile are a magnet for visitors from all over the world. This book provides a concise and fascinating journey from the country's earliest beginnings right up to the present day. A Traveller's History of Egypt communicates the magic of the pharaohs alongside a level-headed discussion of Islam for the benefit of modern travellers. The book will span the entire history of Egypt, from the murkiest origins of prehistory right up to the latest developments - all in a style that is as entertaining as it is well-informed. There are few books on the country that attempt this feat, but to do so is perhaps more important today than it has ever been, at a time when an understanding of contemporary Egypt is not merely an advantage for travel there, but a necessity. It will make sense of the major controversies and guide the reader carefully where Egyptologists cannot agree - whether it is the dates of certain kings or the positioning of whole dynasties. A full chronology of major events, a cross-reference historical gazetteer, a list of pharaohs, rulers and presidents, a bibliography, index and historical maps, will add to its accessibility, and afford it the most useful elements of a reference book.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. In the 20th century, the availability and low cost of oil triggered the industrial growth and development of the world's leading economies. Today, cheap, accessible oil supplies are dwindling, and the true cost to the world's environment of our profligate use of black gold is becoming clearer. America is embroiled in warfare and diplomacy to retain its hold on the Persian Gulf, the world's richest petroleum-producing region. In this new entry in the popular Groundwood Guides series, James Laxer tells the story of the rise of the giant petroleum companies and how they seized control of oil fields and markets worldwide. Laxer explains the relationship between oil, geopolitics, and money, and he examines how different parts of the world -- both users and suppliers -- relate differently to this commodity. Finally, he describes the stark choices humanity faces as oil supplies decrease and climate change, intensified by the burning of petroleum and coal, threatens earth's future.…
