In Praise of Shadows - Džuničiró Tanizaki
A fully illustrated, beautifully produced edition of Junichiro Tanizaki''s wise and evocative essay on Japanese culture. ‘We find beauty not in the thing itself but in the patterns of shadows, the light and the darkness, that one thing against another creates… Were it not for shadows, there would be no beauty.’ This book is in fact a portal. Reading it, you will be led by Junichiro Tanizaki’s light touch into a mysterious and tranquil world of darkness and shadows, where gold flashes in the gloom and a deep stillness reigns. If you are accustomed to equate light with clarity, the faded with the worthless and the dim with the dreary, prepare for a courteous but powerful realignment of your ideas. In Praise of Shadows is a poetic paean to traditional Japanese aesthetics – in a free-ranging style that moves from architecture to No theatre, and from cookery to lighting, Tanizaki teaches us to see the beauty in tarnished metal, the sombre dignity in unglazed pottery, the primacy of organic materials that bear witness to the regular touch of human hands. It is also astonishingly prescient, offering a gentle warning against the quest for airbrushed perfection, and reminding us that too much light can pollute and obscure our natural world. In this special edition, the text is accompanied by specially selected images to complement Tanizaki’s reflections and further illustrate the pattern and beauty of shadows.

From the exiled reformer who risked death to advocate for Mandarin as a national language to the imprisoned computer engineer who devised input codes for Chinese characters on the lid of a teacup, generations of scholars, missionaries, librarians, politicians, inventors, nationalists and revolutionaries alike understood the urgency of their task and its world-shaping consequences.With larger-than-life characters and a thrilling narrative, Kingdom of Characters offers an astonishingly original perspective on one of the twentieth century''s most dramatic transformations.

City of Light, City of Shadows - x Mike Rapport
Paris in the Belle Époque is remembered as a golden age of cultural flourishing and political progress. The period between the revolutionary 1870s and the outbreak of war in 1914 saw the modern French capital take shape: by day Parisians could admire the rising Eiffel Tower and Sacré-Coeur Basilica, while at night they roamed the Bohemian world of the Moulin Rouge. But as Mike Rapport reveals in this authoritative and beautifully written new history, City of Light, City of Shadows, beneath the elegant veneer Paris was at war with itself. For the Belle Époque was also an era of social and religious unrest, arguments over women''s emancipation and violent clashes over what it meant to be French.Paris pulsated with pleasure, anxieties and tension stemming from the giddying speed of modernity: blazing electric lights illuminating the night, the first cars speeding down the boulevards, as well as the first Métro trains and aeroplane flights. At the same time reactionary forces reasserted themselves through the new mass media-mostly dramatically in the infamous Dreyfus affair, which exposed the dark heart of French antisemitism. Told through the eyes of the greatest personalities of the age-novelist Émile Zola, feminist activist Marguerite Durand, Vietnamese diplomat Nguyá»…n Trá»ng Hợp and socialist politician Jean Jaurès-the book weaves together stories of splendour and suffering, delight and agony, offering a brilliant account of the shadows cast across the City of Light.

Kingdom of Football - Kristian Coates Ulrichsen
Kingdom of Football explores how and why Saudi Arabia burst onto the landscape of world football in 2023, and examines what the speed and scale of Saudi engagement—as investor, owner, sponsor, host and competitor—might mean for the Kingdom and for football.Writing as both a football fan and a Gulf specialist, Kristian Coates Ulrichsen offers historical and comparative contexts for Saudi Arabia’s startling emergence as a world football hub in the 2020s, exploring both previous Saudi investment in the game, in the 1970s, and national attempts elsewhere to kickstart the sport, as in the United States, Japan and China.Going beyond popular media labels such as ‘sportswashing’, this fascinating book examines what drives Saudi policymaking, connecting the move into football with domestic economic and social developments, as well as external and foreign policy considerations. It also examines how Riyadh’s foray into world football both builds upon and yet differs from the approaches taken by other Gulf States, such as Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Finally, Coates Ulrichsen assesses the sustainability and durability of the Kingdom’s engagement with the sport in the decade-long countdown to the 2034 FIFA World Cup, which Saudi Arabia is set to host.

The Kingdom of Cain - Andrew Klavan
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Andrew Klavan explores how artists'' imaginative engagement with the darkness can point the way to living beautifully in the midst of a tragic world."Andrew Klavan''s book illuminates even as it explores the deepest darkness, finding truth and beauty in art born of unflinching confrontations with evil."--Daniel McCarthy, editor-in-chief, Modern AgeIn his USA Today bestselling The Truth and Beauty, Andrew Klavan explored how the work of great poets helps illuminate the truth of the gospels. Now, the award-winning screenwriter and crime novelist turns his attention to the dark side of human nature to discover how we might find joy and beauty in the world while still being clear-eyed about the evil found in it.The Kingdom of Cain looks at three murders in history--including the first murder, Cain''s killing of his brother, Abel--and at the art created from imaginative engagement with those horrific events by artists ranging from Fyodor Dostoevsky to Alfred Hitchcock.To make beauty out of the world as it is--shot through with evil and injustice and suffering--is the task not just of the artist but, Klavan argues, of every life rightly lived. Examining how that transformation occurs in art grants us a vision for how it can happen in our lives.Klavan eloquently argues that it is possible to be clear-eyed about the evil in the world while remaining hope-filled about God''s ability to redeem it all.

The Kingdom of God - Asim Khan
This book, suitably titled ‘The Kingdom of God’ delves into the profound meanings and guidance found in Surah al-Mulk, the 67th chapter of the Qur’an. It contains key features that are unique for a book explaining a chapter of the Qur’Än, such as the diagrams and illustrations highlighting the beautiful meanings of the verses. It will take you on a captivating journey exploring diverse topics, including tenets of faith, political issues, spirituality, and social affairs, in a smooth and coherent manner. If you love the Qur’an you will love this book. The commentary is profound and inspiring, it masterfully highlights the nuances of the Qur''Än’s language and repeatedly draws the reader’s attention towards practical changes they can make in their lives.“Easy to read – the way the book is written is quite conversational (in a good way). Quran commentaries can be quite daunting if it’s not something you’ve read a lot of; coupled with overly complicated language, that can totally put some of us off. I get it. This book is clear, easy to read and a quick read (if that is a concern for you).â€-Independent review by Blogging Believer 2021
