Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. This is a parallel text collection of the best Latin translated into poetic English by one of Britains finest translators, Alistair Elliot whose version of Medea was performed so famously by Diana Rigg at The Almeida Theatre in London in 1992.All the major poets of Rome can be represented by something they wrote about food. They tell us how we taste it, where to get it, how to serve it, how and with whom to eat it, what and how much to drink with it, and how to get or avoid invitations to meals. Their subjects include vegetarianism, food-snobs and mythology. They also considered the idea of forbidden food. After all, the main preoccupations of human beings in any age can be brought in on the same trays as the food and drink. Sex, death, slavery, gardening, religion and the family are included, one way or another, in the verses printed and translated here. Alistair Elliot has chosen widely from Latin literature, from humble graffiti to the most famous and most memorable; from the oldest (Ennius) to those writing at the high-point of Empire (Juvenal).The lover of poetry will admire the vigorous translations; the student of Latin will welcome the many styles and means of expression contained within a short compass. This is a parallel text collection of the best Latin poems on food, translated into poetic English. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Gebundene Ausgabe, 4°. Condición: Gut. 1. 132 S. Das Buch ist in gutem, sauberen Zustand. Gebundenes Buch mit Original-Schutzumschlag. Dieser mit leichten Randläsuren und etw. berieben. Sonst sauberes und wohlerhaltenes Exemplar. -----Inhalt. Ola Kolehmainen's photographs are extraordinarily minimal and almost exclusively depict sections of building façades. They are organized according to strict principles of order, showing rows of repetitive basic patterns or symmetrical constructs. The Minimalist austerity of these images is occasionally broken by elements that circumvent this formalism: trees or houses mirrored in the façades. Kolehmainen's works are produced using the Diasec process, which means that the environment is reflected in the surface of the photos as well as in the images themselves-a calculated component of his work.This volume presents many new, previously unpublished photographs, including two monumental five- and eight-part works by the artist. Ola Kohlemainen (*1964 inHelsinki) is a noted member of the Helsinki School, and he primarily regards his works not as photographs of specific objects, but as objets d'art.Exhibition schedule: Kiasma, Museum of Contemporary Art, Helsinki, February 26-April 26,2009 lThe National Museum of Photography, Copenhagen, May 29-August 29, 2009 l New Art Gallery Walsall, November 13, 2009-January 24, 2010 l Kuntsi Museum of Modern Art, Vaasa, March 4-May 16, 2010.

This is his now classic and irresistibly readable 'personal history' of America, guiding us through centuries of changing life in the US. Beginning with his own arrival in America as a graduate in the 1930s, Alistair Cooke goes on to write about the explorers who put their new-found land on the map, the pioneers who tamed the Wild West, the soldiers who fought for independence and the tycoons who built fortunes. From the Mayflower to the gold rush, the jazz age to Pearl Harbour, with portraits of figures as varied as Buffalo Bill, John D. Rockefeller and Martin Luther King, here is the American story in all its triumphs and failures, grandeurs and tragedies.
