The Roman Empire and the Wider World - Paul Chrystal
Much has been written about the great extent encompassed by the Roman Empire's borders, their armies’ attempts to expand and defend them, and about the extent to which ‘Romanization’ imposed a uniform culture within them. But far less attention has been lavished on Rome's relations with the wider world that lay beyond these porous borders. A citizen shopping in the jostling market of a Roman city could buy amber or fur from Scandinavia, ivory from sub-Saharan Africa, spice from India or Chinese silk, among a host of other exotic foods and luxuries. These goods did not just show up at the nearest port; they were the result of centuries of trade missions, trade deals and a general compulsion to explore the outside and largely unknown world. Paul Chrystal examines Rome’s relations with the world it never conquered, describing what the Romans knew of it, how trade relations were established and commerce conducted. He explores the major trade routes such as the fabled Silk Road to China and the sea routes to India, as well as many more. He details embassies and exploratory missions conducted across thousands of miles to open trade and diplomatic links, such as that of Chinese general ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Karen Cross explores digital meditations through an in-depth analysis of the Pixar Studios and the making of the Toy Story franchise.

The book is key reading for film and animation scholars as well as those who are interested in applications of psychoanalysis to popular culture and children''s media.

European Art and the Wider World 1350–1550
The Renaissance has been idealised as a high point in history, as a revival of classical antiquity which brought about technological advances and a flourishing of the arts. Yet recent literature on Renaissance globalism has revealed a very different picture of this era, one which is more complex and inter-connected. New scholarship has highlighted the contributions made by non-Western cultures to what is understood as a European ''Renaissance'', and exposed the less-than-heroic side of the beginnings of European expansion into the world during this era. Examining art and visual culture through a series of accessible and thought-provoking case studies, this book provides insights into Europe''s relationship with Latin America, Africa, Asia and the Middle East in the ''age of exploration''. Written with the student''s perspective in mind, it introduces theoretical topics in a clear and accessible way, foregrounding the close examination of compelling visual examples. Beginning with the Portuguese venture into Morocco in 1415, it looks at art history through the framework of the changes which occurred as Europe acquired new territory and trading advantages, as well as the long-term history of cultural exchange between Europe and the wider world in preceding centuries.

Psychiatry and the Spirit World - Alan Sanderson
A psychiatrist’s comprehensive examination of evidence for the survival of consciousness after death After a twenty-year break from practice, Alan Sanderson returned to clinical psychiatry at age fifty-nine and soon realized that many of his patients were plagued by troublesome earthbound spirits, some of whom had been attached across lifetimes to multiple incarnations as well as multiple hosts. By talking with these attached spirits and persuading them to leave their hosts, Dr. Sanderson found remarkable success in the treatment of his patients. Now, more than 30 years later, Dr. Sanderson shares his extensive research on the afterlife, the survival of consciousness after physical death, and paranormal phenomena related to the spirit world. He explains his practice of psychiatric spirit release, centered on the spiritual and psychic aspects of emotional disturbance, and shares case studies complete with full accounts of treatment sessions. He offers first-hand accounts of the survival of the spirit after death, from ancient times to the present day, and explores end-of-life experiences, including what is witnessed by the living people in the room, as well as profound accounts of near-death experiences, out-of-body experiences, and reincarnation.

Hitler and Stalin: The Tyrants and the Second World War (0241979692)
Kniha - autor Laurence Rees, 528 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Two tyrants. Each responsible for the death of millions. This compelling book on Hitler and Stalin - the culmination of thirty years' work - examines the two leaders during the Second World War, when Germany and the Soviet Union fought the biggest and bloodiest war in history. Hitler's charismatic leadership may contrast with Stalin's regimented rule by fear, and his intransigence later in the war may contrast with Stalin's change in behaviour in response to events. But as bestselling historian Laurence Rees shows, at a macro level, both were prepared to create undreamt-of suffering - in Hitler's case, most infamously the Holocaust - in order to build the utopias they wanted.
