Paperback. Condición: Good. The limerick, one of the oldest and most challenging of verse forms, has traditionally been the plaything of Oxford dons, American academicians, and a sprinkling of men of wit. Historian Ray Allen Billington worked on his own collection for fifty years. Here is the cream of that collection--original and classical limericks, irreverent, spicy, funny, and, of course, suggestive.…

Hardback. Condición: Good. When the Soviet communist empire was overthrown by the Russians themselves in August 1991, the change was more clearly anticipated by humanistic students of creativity than by economic and political scientists surrounded by statistics and information. Does the Russian pattern of creativity provide any hints as to how the Russians might solve problems today? Having borrowed the democratic political model of their erstwhile American enemy, will they be able to create a distinctive Russian variant that can endure? Or will they end up destroying their own experiment at accountable, constitutional government and returning to their long tradition of authoritarianism? The Face of Russia--a companion book to the corresponding PBS series--addresses these questions. This is a dazzling and forward-looking history of the Russian people as told through their art--from one of the world's great experts on Russian culture. The story covers eight hundred years of Russian creativity, and introduces us to the new art forms that burst onto the Russian scene and became the vehicles for expressing the creative aspirations of an age as well as the enduring Russian quest to find salvation and entertainment in art. James H. Billington has served since 1987 as the thirteenth Librarian of Congress of the United States. A Rhodes Scholar at Oxford, he taught modern history with a special focus on Russian culture at Harvard and Princeton Universities from 1957 to 1973. He was Director of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington, DC, from 1973 to 1987. Dr. Billington is the author of the classic The Icon and the Ax: An Interpretive History of Russian Culture; Fire in the Minds of Men: Origins of the Revolutionary Faith; and Russia Transformed: Breakthrough to Hope, an eyewitness account of the failed Communist coup in 1991 and the emergence of Russia as a democratic nation. He is one of the world's leading experts on Russia and has been a policy advisor to presidents and congressmen as well as leaders in the academic, ecclesiastical, and private sectors.…

Hardback. Condición: Very Good. A social and cultural history of the United States, told in the words of ordinary Americans, from the planting of the first settlements in Jamestown and Plymouth to the turn of the 20th century. Extracts form letters, diaries, memoirs, travel books, newspaper accounts, posters, advertisements, broadsides, and official documents combine to form a patchwork quilt of life in the United States. The book focuses on the specific and the personal rather than the abstract and the general - going to church on a cold winter day to hear a hellfire sermon, on what people elected to wear rather than who they elected to office, on going to school, living in a log or sod house, giving birth and dying.…
