estas civilizaciones, los aspectos únicos de su próspera cultura, y lo más importante de todo, las condiciones misteriosas en que desaparecieron. Los académicos han ofrecido teorías sobre como estas civilizaciones desaparecieron, y observaremos las mejores explicaciones de cómo una civilización avanzada, llena de metrópolis bulliciosas, vasta en redes mercantiles, flotas de barcos, y ejércitos en pie pueden desaparecer sin dejar nada atrás para tener algo que contar.By Joachim Neugrochel, Tony Kushner. 1997
Kushner's imaginative retelling of the classic mystical legend, The Dybbuk, by S. Ansky, the noted Russian and Yiddish-language folklorist, novelist…
and dramatist. Ansky formed an expedition which roamed throughout the Ukraine to preserve and collect Hasidic folktales. The Dybbuk was a product of that journey. Written before the outbreak of World War I, it wasn't produced until 1920, shortly after Ansky's death. It has been much-produced worldwide ever since.By Barbara Risoli, Yvonne Glasbergen. 2015
Boekbeschrijving Een Giftig Hart Een buitengewoon liefdespaar in het Frankrijk van 1788 Het verhaal speelt zich af in de zomer…
van 1788, in het de op de proef gestelde Frankrijk van voor de Franse Revolutie. Men is in afwachting van de dag waarop de Staten-Generaal bijeen zullen komen, voorafgaand aan de bestorming van de Bastille. Hoofdpersonen zijn Eufrasia, dochter van graaf Xavier des Fleuves - een trots lid van de fysiocratische aanhangers van de Verandering - en Venanzio, een huurmoordenaar met een twijfelachtig verleden. Na het mislukte huwelijk van het meisje ontmoeten de twee elkaar en ontstaat een hechte band tussen hen. Zij leggen hun zielen schaamteloos bloot en zijn tot alles bereid om op te komen voor zichzelf, over de ruggen van anderen. Eufrasia's verzoek om haar eigen moord te ensceneren om niet het klooster in te hoeven, en de uitvoering van deze dienst door de bandiet, geeft elk van een hen een nieuwe identiteit. Zij houden zich schuil tegen de duistere achtergrond van het roerige Frankrijk, dat gebukt gaat onder de onophoudelijke sneeuwval van de winter van 1788. Op dit punt speelt het verhaal zich af tussen Nanterre, een gehucht in de buurt van Versailles, en Bretagne, de geboortegrond van de hoofdpersonen. Eufrasia wordt de Weduwe, een vrouw die zich altijd schuilhoudt, strijdbaar tot het uiterste, een behendig gokster en smokkelaarster die de opkomende revolutie van wapens voorziet. Venanzio geeft zich uit voor graaf Stolfo Rues, uit een niet-bestaand geslacht. Een serie toevalligheden brengt hen opnieuw bij elkaar, waarbij de liefde tussen hen langzaam opbloeit in de wederzijdse angst om afgewezen te worden. Maar belofte maakt schuld en....By Barbara Risoli, L B. 2012
L'été 1788, dans une France pré-révolutionnaire mise à dure épreuve par un rude hiver et dans l'attente de l'assemblée des…
Etats Généraux qui précèderont la prise de la Bastille. Les protagonistes sont Euphrasie, fille du comte Xavier des Fleuves faisant partie des physiocrates partisans du changement, et Venance, un tueur à gages au passé trouble. Suite au mariage raté de la jeune femme, les deux se rencontrent et un solide lien se crée entre eux et connaitra d'inquiétantes péripéties qui révéleront leurs âmes sans scrupules et prêtes à tout au détriment des autres. La demande d'Euphrasie de mettre en scène son propre meurtre pour échapper au couvent et l'exécution de ce service par le bandit pousseront les deux protagonistes à changer d'identité et à se cacher dans cette France en ébullition, à genou et sous la neige incessante de l'hiver 1788. L'histoire s'articule entre Nanterre, petit bourg proche de Versailles et le Bretagne terrre d'origine des protagonistes. Euphrasie devient la Veuve, une femme toujours cachée derrière le deuil, habile joueuse de hasard et contrebandière d'arme pour la Révolution imminente. Venance se fait passer pour le duc Stolfo Rues d'une lignée inconnue. Une série de coïncidences les font se rencontrer de nouveau, tandis que leur amour se révèle lentement malgré une peur et un refus mutuels. Mais les promesses sont des promesses et...By Alfred Bram Zoer, Michael Rank. 2017
Van de # 1 bestseller auteur van History's Greatest Generals is nu een spannend nieuw boek verschenen over de invloedrijkste…
samenlevingen in de geschiedenis die spoorloos zijn verdwenen en waarom hun verdwijning ons vandaag nog steeds achtervolgt. Of het nu Plato's verloren stad Atlantis is, een technologisch geavanceerde utopie die in de oceaan zonk "in één onfortuinlijk etmaal", de kolonie van Roanoke, waarvan de vroege Amerikaanse kolonisten werden verzwolgen door de ruige boslanden van het onontdekte continent, of de oude Amerikaanse ontdekkingsreizigers, die 2000 jaar voor Columbus naar de Nieuwe Wereld kwamen, de verdwijning van deze samenlevingen is net zo raadselachtig als onaannemelijk. Dit boek zal culturen behandelen van de 10 grootste verloren beschavingen in de geschiedenis. Sommigen waren millennia voor op hun buren, zoals de Indus Vallei Beschaving, die in 3000 voor Christus een betere stadsplanning had dan alle Europese hoofdsteden in de 18e eeuw. Anderen lieten verbluffende mysteries achter, zoals de oude Pueblo-volken (vroeger bekend als de Anasazi), wier rotswoningen zo ontoegankelijk waren, dat elk lid van de samenleving een expert in bergbeklimmen heeft moeten zijn. Het zal ook uitleg geven over hoe enorme samenlevingen, die eeuwenlang bestonden, spoorloos konden verdwijnen. Zijn de bouwers van de piramides, bekwame ambachtslieden wier methode om massale stenen te transporteren nog steeds onverklaarbaar is, gewoon verdwenen of waren ze onderdeel van een geavanceerd buitenaards ras, zoals de samenzweringstheoretici beweren? Was het Koninkrijk Aksum echt de bewaarder van de Ark van het Verbond, en leidde dit tot hun ondergang? Wat de aard van hun verdwijning ook was, wij kunnen vandaag de dag lering trekken uit deze verloren beschavingen: zelfs de grootste samenlevingen kunnen verdwijnen, en wijzelf zijn daarbij niet uitgesloten.By Michael Rank, Sara Oliveira. 2015
O autor do bestseller History's Greatest Generals lança agora um excitante novo livro sobre as maiores sociedades da história que…
desapareceram sem deixar rasto, e porque é que o seu desaparecimento ainda nos assombra. Quer seja a cidade perdida da Atântida de Platão, uma utopia tecnologicamente avançada que se afundou no oceano "num dia e noite de azar"; a colónia de Roanoke, cujos primeiros colonos americanos foram engolidos pela floresta selvagem do continente por explorar, ou os antigos exploradores da América, que conseguiram chegar ao Novo Mundo 2000 anos antes de Colombo, o desaparecimento das colónias é tão críptico como implausível. Este livro explora as culturas de 10 das maiores civilizações na história. Alguns estavam milénios à frente dos seus vizinhos, tais como a Civilização do Vale do Indo, que tinha um melhor planeamento urbano em 3000 A.C. do que qualquer capital Europeia do século XVIII. Outros deixaram para trás mistérios desconcertantes, como os antigos povos Pueblo (conhecidos anteriormente como os Anasazi), cujas casas nas falésias eram tão inacessíveis que todos os membros da sociedade teria que ser um alpinista experiente. Também tentará explicar como é que sociedades tão massivas que duraram séculos puderam desaparecer sem deixar rasto. Será que os hábeis construtores de pirâmides, cujo método de transporte das massivas pedras ainda está por explicar, simplesmente desapareceram ou eram parte de uma raça avançada de extraterrestres, como dizem os teóricos da conspiração? Foi o Reino de Aksum o guardião da Arca da Aliança, e será que isto levou ao seu declínio? Qualquer que seja a natureza do seu desaparecimento, estas civilizações perdidas dão-nos muitas lições ainda hoje - até a maior das sociedades podem desaparecer, e isto inclui-nos a nós.By Michael Rank, Barbara Griem. 2015
Buchbeschreibung: Vom Autor des die Bestseller Liste anführenden Buches "Hystory's Greatest Generals", kommt hier ein neues und aufregendes Buch über…
die größten Zivilisationen, die spurlos verschwanden und warum sie uns heute noch beschäftigen. Ob es nun Platons verschollene Stadt Atlantis ist, ein technologisch fortschrittliches Utopia welches im Ozean versank, "an einem einzigen Tag und einer einzigen Nacht des Unglücks", die Kolonie Roanoke, deren frühe amerikanischen Siedler von den wilden Wäldern des unerforschten Kontinents verschluckt worden zu sein scheinen oder die ursprünglichen Entdecker Amerikas, welche 2.000 Jahre vor Kolumbus die Neue Welt erreichten - das Verschwinden all dieser Gesellschaften ist ebenso mysteriös wie fragwürdig. Dieses Buch wird sich den Kulturen der zehn größten, untergegangenen Zivilisationen der Geschichte widmen. Manche waren ihren Nachbarn um Jahrhunderte voraus, wie etwa die Indus-Kultur, welches 3000 vor Chr. eine bessere Stadtplanung vorzuweisen hatte als manche europäische Stadt im 18. Jahrhundert. Andere hinterließen verwirrende Rätsel wie etwas die Ur-Pueblo-Indianer (früher bekannt als Anasazi), deren Felswohnungen in den Klippen so unerreichbar waren, dass jedes Mitglied ihrer Gesellschaft ein erfahrener Experte im Hangklettern hätte sein müssen. Das Buch wird auch versuchen zu erklären, wie riesige Gesellschaftssysteme, die für Jahrhunderte bestanden, spurlos verschwinden können. Sind die fähigen Baumeister der Pyramiden, deren Methoden zum Transport der riesigen Steine immer noch unklar sind, einfach verschwunden oder waren sie Mitglieder einer fortschrittlichen Rasse von Außerirdischen, wie einige Verschwörungstheoretiker behaupten? War das Königreich der Aksumer wirklich der Bewahrer der Bundeslade und führte das letztendlich zu ihrem Niedergang? Was auch immer die Gründe für ihr Verschwinden war, diese vergangenen Zivilisationen haben auBy Michael Rank, Simeon Leyzerzon. 2015
Автор известного бестселлера "Великие Генералы Истории" представляет свою новую работу о бесследно исчезнувших великих культурах древности, и о том как…
они преследуют нас и сегодня. От погибшей Атлантиды Платона, высокотехнологической утопии, поглощённой океаном всего за один скорбный день и американской колонии Роанок, чьих жителей поглотили дикие леса неосвоенного континента, до древних исследователей Америки, прибывших на континент за две тысячи лет до Колумба - исчезновение этих обществ загадочны и неправдоподобны. В книге описаны десять цивилизаций, когда то существовавших, а сейчас полностью исчезнувших. Некоторые из них на века опередили соседей в развитии, другие оставили для нас неразрешимые тайны. Книга предлагает версии различных гипотез о том, как культуры, длившиеся веками, могут бесследно изчезнуть, а также и полезные уроки, которые мы, современные жители планеты земля, можем из этих исчезновений для себя извлечь.By Michael Rank, Ivano Conte. 2014
Dall'autore best-seller num. 1 di History's Greatest Generals arriva un libro nuovo emozionante sulle più grandi società nella storia che…
scomparirono senza lasciare traccia, e perché la loro scomparsa ci perseguita ancora oggi.Che sia la perduta città di Atlantide di Platone, un'utopia tecnologica avanzata che affondò nell'oceano "in un solo giorno e notte di disgrazia"; la colonia di Roanoke, i cui primi coloni americani che sono stati inghiottiti nelle terre delle foreste selvagge del continente inesplorato, o gli antichi esploratori americani, che sono riusciti ad arrivare al nuovo mondo 2000 anni prima di Colombo, la scomparsa di queste società è criptica quanto non plausibile.Questo libro esaminerà le culture delle 10 civiltà più grandi perdute della storia. Alcune erano millenni avanti i loro vicini, come la civiltà della valle dell'Indo, che nel 3000 a.C. aveva una pianificazione urbana migliore di qualsiasi capitale europea nel XVIII secolo. Altri misteri sconcertanti, come ad esempio i Pueblo antichi (precedentemente noti come gli Anasazi), le cui abitazioni su pareti a strapiombo erano così inaccessibili che ogni membro della società avrebbe dovuto essere un esperto scalatore.Vi saranno anche delle spiegazioni su come delle società di massa che durarono per secoli possono sparire senza lasciare traccia. Che i costruttori delle piramidi il cui metodo di trasporto di pietre massicce è ancora inspiegabile semplicemente scomparirono o erano parte di una razza aliena avanzata, come affermano i teorici della cospirazione? Il regno di Axum era davvero il custode dell'Arca dell'Alleanza, e fu davvero questo che li portò alla rovina?Qualunque sia la natura della loro scomparsa, queste civiltà perdute oggi ci offrono molte lezioni: anche la più grande delle società può scomparire, noi compresi.By Nicholas Levis, Ulrike Klausman, Gabriel Kuhn, Marion Meinzerin. 1997
There have always been women among pirates and sea robbers. Metaphors of mysterious and destructive femininity may have perennially been…
assigned to the sea and its dangers, but the real women who sailed on ships steered them, sank with them, commanded them, even commandeered them have been ignored by a history written by and for patriarchal men.Ample evidence of women pirates and even feminine piracy nonetheless abounds: beginning with ancient legends of Amazon sailors in several cultural traditions, and continuing uninterrupted through a wealth of confirmed historical figures, down to the present.Women Pirates and the Politics of the Jolly Roger is an account of piracy through three millennia, in histories of women and men sailing on four seas: the Chinese Straits, the Mediterranean, the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean. Writing with passion and humour, but without romanticizing, or ignoring the unsavoury side of some of their heroines, the authors turn history on its head. Nor do they forget the practical details, even including genuine recipes for shark and other delights.The volume is introduced by Gabriel Kuhn's essay on anarchism and piracy, "Under the Death's Head." Considering the history of Caribbean piracy and drawing on Stirner and Foucault among others, Kuhn describes a breaking out of structured obedience, an escape from perpetual supervision, a plunge into unpredictability, danger, "everything that makes strong, free action.""The stories are lively and exciting. You'll definately be able to taste the sensation of piracy, as the authors have included a number of actual recipes prepared on the high seas. This book is a hearty read which I would recommend to the saltiest of seadogs as well as your average landlubber."--Feminist Bookstore News"Carefully researched and vividly told."--In These Times"For those who like thier history marinated in oral tradition and spiced with socialist-feminist analysis the language is blunt, sly, poetic, and innocent of academic jargon. Also includes regional recipes; readers will want to try the Piquant Shark Schnitzel from the Caribbean."--Rain Taxi"A fascinating book...the offbeat subjBy Daniela Sacerdoti. 2018
