Liverpool in Old Photographs (Britain in Old Photographs)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Liverpool in Old Photographs brings to life the history of a famous port and city over the past century. Concentrating on its varied shipping and unparalleled waterfront, its historic streets and buildings of outstanding architectural interest, together with the lives of ordinary citizens, this well-illustrated book affords an opportunity to look back on what has now become a `city of change and challenge.` Driven by poverty, cholera, and unemployment, thousands flocked to the city in the 19th century, hoping to either settle there or to use it as a springboard to a better life through the cheap means of escape offered by the shipping companies. Jobs in the New World and wealth in the Australian gold fields beckoned, but overcrowding resulted in slums developing alongside some of the finest buildings in Europe. Pride in achievement and strength in adversity, coupled with grit and humor, characterize this `Scouse` port, imbuing it with a phoenix-like quality of survival. [detailed...]

Suetonius
Lives of the Caesars

2000 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: Suetonius` graphic account of the death of Julius Caesar is only one of many extraordinary scenes in Lives of the Caesars, a series of twelve biographies of Roman emperors beginning with Julius Caesar and ending with Domitian. As a fund of fascinating, often outrageous anecdotes, Suetonius` work is unrivalled: Caligula`s plan to make his horse consul, Nero singing while Rome burns, tales of adultery, perversion, murder- every vice is exposed and recorded. Less celebrated but equally significant are the edifying descriptions of Augustus` splendid redevelopment of the city of Rome, and Titus` decision to put the state before his love for Berenice. Suetonius` accounts of the achievements and eccentricities of emperors, as well as being highly entertaining, give us valuable insights into the exercise of imperial power in ancient Rome. This new translation sets the Lives in the literary and political contexts in which they were written. Формат: 12,5 см x 19,5 см. [detailed...]

Lives of the Trees: An Uncommon History

Publisher: —
Description: Diana Wells, author of 100 Flowers and How They Got Their Names now turns her attention to something bigger—our deep-rooted relationship with trees. As she investigates the names and meanings of trees, telling their legends and lore, she reminds us of just how innately bound we are to these protectors of our planet. Since the human race began, we have depended on them for food, shade, shelter and fuel, not to mention furniture, musical instruments, medicine utensils and more. Wells has a remarkable ability to dig up the curious and the captivating: At one time, a worm found in a hazelnut prognosticated ill fortune. Rowan trees were planted in churchyards to prevent the dead from rising from their graves. Greek arrows were soaked in deadly yew, and Shakespeare’s witches in Macbeth used “Gall of goat and slips of Yew” to make their lethal brew. One bristlecone pine, at about 4,700 years old, is thought to be the oldest living plant on earth. All this and more can be found in the… [detailed...]
