        Spices, Scents and Silk

        Catalysts of World Trade

        by James Hancock

        Spices, scents and silks were at the centre of world trade for millennia. Through their international trade, humans were pushed to explore and then travel to the far corners of the earth. Almost from their inception, the earliest great civilizations - Egypt, Sumer and Harappa - became addicted to the luxury products of far-off lands and established long-reaching trade networks. Over time, great powers fought mightily for the kingdoms where silk, spices and scents were produced. The New World was accidentally discovered by Columbus in his quest for spices. What made trade in these products so remarkable was that the plants producing them grew in very restricted areas of the world, distant from the wealthy civilizations of northern Africa, Greece and Europe. These luxuries could be carried from mysterious locations on the backs of camels or in the holds of ships for months on end, and arrived at their final destination in nearly perfect condition. Once the western world discovered the intoxicating properties of these products, their procurement became a dominant force in the world economy. Nothing else compared with their possible profit returns. In this book, eminent horticulturist and author James Hancock examines the origins and early domestication and culture of spices, scents and silks and the central role these exotic luxuries played in the lives of the ancients. The book also traces the development of the great international trade networks and explores how struggles for trade dominance and demand for such luxuries shaped the world. Recommended for academics, students and general readers with an interest in crop and agricultural development, world trade, economic botany, history of food, and global economics and public policy, Spices, Scents and Silk offers a fascinating and insightful history.

        Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre

        by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Sveta Dorosheva, Svenja Becker

        Anne Frank wurde in Deutschland geboren und wuchs in einer liebevollen Familie auf. Als der Zweite Weltkrieg ausbrach, musste sich Anne mit ihrer Familie in einem Unterschlupf in Amsterdam verstecken. Dort schrieb Anne ihr berühmtes Tagebuch, in dem sie von ihrem Glauben an das Gute im Menschen und ihrer Hoffnung auf Frieden berichtet. Nach dem Krieg eroberten ihre Aufzeichnungen die Herzen der Menschen und wurden zu einem der bedeutendsten Tagebüchern des 20. Jahrhunderts. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Persönlichkeiten: Jede dieser Frauen, ob Künstlerin, Pilotin oder Wissenschaftlerin, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen. Für welches Alter sind diese Bücher gedacht? Für Babys das perfekte Geschenk zur Begrüßung in eine Welt voller Träume! Und Eltern werden in schlaflosen Nächten von diesen Büchern dazu ermutigt, das Vorlesen zu einem selbstverständlichen Teil des Lebens zu machen. Kleinkinder werden von den Illustrationen verzaubert sein – sie werden zahlreiche Dinge entdecken. Auch sind die Bücher großartige „Vokabeltrainer“! 3- bis 5-Jährige werden alles, Illustrationen und Texte, geradezu in sich aufsaugen! 6-, 8- und 10-Jährige haben ein ausgeprägteres Verständnis für die Illustrationen und die Bedeutung der Geschichte – es geht nicht nur darum, sich selbst zu akzeptieren und die eigenen Zukunftsträume zu verwirklichen, sondern auch darum, andere so zu akzeptieren, wie sie sind. Später: Die Bücher sind gute Geschenke zu jedem Anlass, denn die Träume der Kindheit können das ganze Leben lang Wirklichkeit werden.

        David, Donne and Thirsty Deer

        Selected Essays of Anne Lake Prescott

        by Anne Lake Prescott, Roger Kuin, William A. Oram

        For nearly half a century Anne Lake Prescott has been a force and an inspiration in Renaissance studies. A force, because of her unique blend of learning and wit and an inspiration through her tireless encouragement of younger scholars and students. Her passion has always been the invisible bridge across the Channel: the complex of relations, literary and political, between Britain and France. The essays in this long-awaited collection range from Edmund Spenser to John Donne, from Clément Marot to Pierre de Ronsard. Prescott has a particular fondness for King David, who appears several times; and the reader will encounter chessmen, bishops, male lesbian voices and Roman whores. Always Prescott's immense erudition is accompanied by a sly and gentle wit that invites readers to share her amusement. Reading her is a joyful education.

        Einfacher leben

        by Marie Bernhard, Frank Badur

        Ist es nicht vorstellbar, sich etwas einzuschränken? Kann man nicht mit weniger prestigeträchtigen »Erfahrungen« leichter das Gleichgewicht des Lebens halten? Könnte es nicht sogar sein, dass man, wenn man unnötigen Ballast abwirft, zwar Eitelkeiten verliert, aber elementare Dinge hinzugewinnt? Weniger Hektik, mehr Nachhaltigkeit, weniger Geschwätz, mehr Intensität, weniger artifizielle Vergnügungen, mehr Hinwendung zur Natur? Die Angebote dieser Anthologie reichen von Seneca bis Henry David Thoreau, von Anne Morrow Lindbergh bis Marlen Haushofer. Und begleitet wird das Lesebuch von der scheinbar einfachen, aber wirkungsmächtigen Farbfeldmalerei Frank Badurs. Für Texte und Bilder könnte gelten: »Man folge seiner inneren Stimme, und sie wird einem stündlich neue Aussichten eröffnen!«

        Anne Clifford's Great Books of Record

        by Jessica L. Malay

        In her Great Books of Record Anne Clifford places herself within the dynamic history of the ancient Clifford family, providing an unbroken view into medieval and early modern life for nearly six centuries. In this annotated edition, we glimpse the lives of simple widows, traders, farmers, and labourers juxtaposed with the adventures of soldiers, lords and ladies, princes and princesses. Throughout, Anne Clifford asserts the centrality of women to the success of noble families, including the monarchy. Her Great Books draws upon medieval traditions and early modern scholarship and builds upon these through biographies of the Clifford lords and ladies, along with an extended biography of her mother Margaret Russell and her own autobiographical 'Life of Mee'. Those interested in the lives of medieval and early modern women, changes in culture, the effect of the political upon individuals, and the inspiring life of Anne Clifford will find this a rich and rewarding book.

        Not Our Day to Die

        by Michael Sullivan

        It was work for Mike Sullivan–a flying job like the ones he'd done most of his life in many parts of the world–ferrying people, medicine, crops, supplies and almost anything else you can think of among the isolated jungle villages of Guatemala. Life in the farming co-ops there was simple, peaceful, and good, based on bedrocks of family, community, and faith.Then the repression began. A failed attempt at a coup had led to continued fighting between rebels and government, though in areas far from the almost-utopian Ixcan region. U.S. military and CIA intervention helped defeat the insurgency, but the social inequalities that had led to the movement remained, and the revolution went underground. The Guatemalan army, searching everywhere for those who opposed it, increased its control over the isolated jungle area. Co-op directors, teachers, catechists, and then anyone suspected of being one of or assisting the guerrillas was selectively "disappeared." The army turned to a scorched-earth policy, killing animals, burning crops, uprooting fruit trees, destroying towns, massacring their people. Throughout the Ixcan, those who survived fled. Some returned to their original mountain villages, others crossed the border into Mexico, and a third group survived for sixteen years hiding in the jungle–men, women, and children. Primeval growth took over the land as the war with the guerrilla movement raged on to encompass the entire nation.When finally peace accords were signed, the people of the Ixcan returned. Homes were rebuilt, land reclaimed, the area thrived again. But sixteen years were lost, along with countless lives. For Mike Sullivan, who had returned there when his help was needed, the story of those years–of how the people of the Ixcan survived, and of the many who didn't–was one that had to be told. In three visits, he conducted the interviews that form this book, talking with the villagers he'd known long before. At first, they spoke hesitantly, then with the flood force of vivid memory, telling of their first arrival at the Ixcan, the lives they'd made, and the years of the repression and worse. Their stories are gripping, fascinating, painful–but most of all, deeply human as we witness their struggle to survive and feel the force of the simple values that ultimately carried them through to a new and better life.

        Agnes Grey

        Roman

        by Anne Brontë, Elisabeth Arx

        Die Schwestern Charlotte, Emily und Anne Brontë gehören bis heute zu den meistgelesenen Autorinnen des 19. Jahrhunderts. Als Töchter eines englischen Pfarrers wuchsen sie in der Abgeschiedenheit eines abgelegenen Pfarrhauses in West Yorkshire auf, wo sie bis zu ihrem Lebensende blieben. Bereits als Kinder verfaßten die Schwestern gemeinsam mit ihrem Bruder Branwell (1817-1848) die Erzählungen aus Angria. Als der Bruder jedoch alkohol- und drogenkrank wurde, waren die Schwestern aufgrund des frühen Todes der Mutter und der mangelnden Unterstützung des Vaters auf sich alleine gestellt. Ihre Werke erschienen zeitlebens unter den männlichen Pseudonymen Currer Bell (Charlotte), Ellis Bell (Emily) und Acton Bell (Anne).    Anne Brontё (1820-1849) war die jüngste der drei Schwestern. Sie arbeitete wie ihre Schwester Charlotte als Gouvernante. Diese Erfahrungen flossen in ihre Werke Agnes Grey und Die Herrin von Wildfell Hall ein. Sie erlag mit 29 Jahren der Tuberkulose.
