Dancing With the Virgins - Stephen Booth
COMING SOON TO TV: COOPER AND FRY, starring Robert James-Collier (Downton Abbey) and Mandip Gill (Doctor Who)The second in the series set in the Derbyshire Peak District, Dancing with the Virgins is a tense psychological follow-up to Stephen Booth’s acclaimed debut Black Dog.''The body of the woman sprawled obscenely among the stones… She looked like a dead woman, dancing.''The ring of cairns known as the Nine Virgins has stood on the windswept moors of Derbyshire for centuries. Now, as winter closes in, a tenth figure is added – a body – and a modern tragedy is added to the dark legend that surrounds the stones.There''s no shortage of suspects, each with their own guilty secret, but what DS Fry and DC Cooper lack is any kind of motive. As they search separately for answers, it seems the reasons for the strange behaviour of the moor''s inhabitants may lie somewhere in the past, in a terrible crime yet to be discovered…

Dancing With The Gods - Monidipa Mukherjee, Sutapa Sengupta
This book is an ode to the mythological heritage of Bharatanatyam. The visual narrative captures the rich heritage of this temple dance and its original exponents, the Devadasis or ‘handmaidens of the deity’. Its repertoire of movements and moods bring alive the fascinating stories of Hindu gods and goddesses and their kaleidoscopic lives. In the following pages, the authors have traced the myths and legends that are cherished in our performing arts, to delight the culture-curious reader. And what is interesting is that in these stories, the reader will discover the inter-connectedness of ancient mythologies around the world. Perhaps such discoveries go a long way in validating the role that art plays in connecting civilizations. The book is designed to engage the reader without pedagogy or scholastic strictures, but with a lightness of touch, that entertains while it informs. Because the vision here is to weave information, anecdotes and trivia, together in the spirit of a popular cultural ranconteur. Replete with rare photographs curated from the Sohinimoksha World Dance and Communications archives, complemented by a lucid narrative that wraps facts in the language of romance and adventure, this book promises to be a collector’s item for those who value the ...

There is clearly something about the octopus’s weird beauty that fires the imaginations of explorers, scientists, writers' Daily Mail In 2011 Sy Montgomery wrote a feature for Orion magazine entitled 'Deep Intellect' about her friendship with a sensitive, sweet-natured octopus named Athena and the grief she felt at her death. It went viral, indicating the widespread fascination with these mysterious, almost alien-like creatures. Since then, Sy has practised true immersion journalism, from New England aquarium tanks to the reefs of French Polynesia and the Gulf of Mexico, pursuing these wild, solitary shape-shifters. Octopuses have varied personalities and intelligence they show in myriad ways: endless trickery to escape enclosures and get food; jetting water playfully to bounce objects like balls; and evading caretakers by using a scoop net as a trampoline and running around the floor on eight arms. But with a beak like a parrot, venom like a snake, and a tongue covered with teeth, how can such a being know anything? And what sort of ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Dancing with Goddesses - Agnieszka Drabek-Prime
A unique and practical guide to support women through the complexities of the menstrual cycle and the journey of womanhoodDrawing from the ancient wisdom of the Great Goddesses, Agnieszka Drabek-Prime reclaims the cycle of menstruation and the journey of womanhood as a sacred spiral of life, death and rebirth, encouraging women to understand their cycle as a vehicle for wisdom and strength.For centuries within Western society, the menstrual cycle has been connoted with feelings of shame and dirtiness, rarely acknowledged outside of medical circumstances. Women across the world move through life without a proper understanding of the monthly cycles of their bodies, hating themselves for feelings of irritability, tiredness and depression.Dancing with Goddesses reveals the archetypes of the great Goddesses and provides a guide for women to work with them in unravelling and strengthening the energy and feelings of their own cycles. Drabek-Prime also includes information vital to all women, explaining the workings of a healthy menstrual cycle and information cycle tracking.Offering a range of practical methods to work with – from meditations and rituals to seasonal journeys or moon guides – Dancing with Goddesses will appeal to all women, both old and young.In this unique exploration of mythology and ...

Dancing in the Streets - Barbara Ehrenreich
From the bestselling social commentator and cultural historian comes Barbara Ehrenreich''s fascinating exploration of one of humanity''s oldest traditions: the celebration of communal joyIn the acclaimed Blood Rites, Barbara Ehrenreich delved into the origins of our species'' attraction to war. Here, she explores the opposite impulse, one that has been so effectively suppressed that we lack even a term for it: the desire for collective joy, historically expressed in ecstatic revels of feasting, costuming, and dancing.Ehrenreich uncovers the origins of communal celebration in human biology and culture. Although sixteenth-century Europeans viewed mass festivities as foreign and "savage," Ehrenreich shows that they were indigenous to the West, from the ancient Greeks'' worship of Dionysus to the medieval practice of Christianity as a "danced religion." Ultimately, church officials drove the festivities into the streets, the prelude to widespread reformation: Protestants criminalized carnival, Wahhabist Muslims battled ecstatic Sufism, European colonizers wiped out native dance rites. The elites'' fear that such gatherings would undermine social hierarchies was justified: the festive tradition inspired French revolutionary crowds and uprisings from the Caribbean to the American plains. Yet outbreaks of group revelry persist, as Ehrenreich shows, pointing to the 1960s rock-and-roll rebellion and the more recent "carnivalization" ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Since then she has gone on to challenge almost every stereotype of people with dementia by campaigning for self-advocacy, writing articles and speaking at national conferences.This book is a vivid account of the author''s experiences of living with dementia, exploring the effects of memory problems, loss of independence, difficulties in communication and the exhaustion of coping with simple tasks.
