The Golden Man: The Indigenous Story Behind the Legend of El Dorado
The Indigenous story that inspired the legend of El Dorado Before El Dorado became a tale of European conquest and lost treasure, it was an Indigenous story--rooted in ritual, reverence, and gold. The Golden Man introduces young readers to the true origin of this legendary myth.

Through rich storytelling and detailed, historically grounded artwork, this book honors the Muisca civilization--the master goldsmiths whose spiritual traditions gave rise to one of the most enduring legends of the Americas. Written by Colombian author Mar a Fernanda Paz-Castillo, whose acclaimed books have reached readers across the Spanish-speaking world, and illustrated by award-winning Venezuelan artist Ram n Par s.

Nearly destitute after abandoning her job in a small town where she was the subject of public scrutiny and gossip, Andreea takes refuge in her sister's unwelcoming apartment in Manhattan. Her only hope for a brilliant future is writing the next great American novel. But she has yet to write a line. For months now, she's been choking on words, deleting them. For months, she's been dealing with her sister's desperate pleas to find a job-perhaps she could waitress?-and her own empty mind in front of a blank screen. Desperate to write, desperate to escape, she blows the last of her savings on a one-way ticket on a slow train to California. She figures the isolation of the journey might force her to write, the changing landscape might inspire her, a new adventure might, perhaps, attract better luck. But what if drama unfolds in real life instead of on the page? Can she break her old patterns? Can writing about the past somehow exorcise it? And how exactly will a long detour to West Texas help her writerly cause?
Story of War

Story of War

Anna Maria Forssberg

Nordic Academic Press

The endless wars of the seventeenth century took their toll in the lives of millions of soldiers and crushing taxes. To legitimise war, Europes rulers turned to the Church: O God, we praise you, Te Deum Laudamus, was sung in the churches of France and Sweden to celebrate victory in battle. It was a way of thanking God, but also an opportunity for congregations to learn what had happened -- and an occasion for festivities. In this book, the historian Anna Maria Forssberg applies a narrative and ritual perspective to the Te Deum, looking at specific wars such as the Thirty Years War and at themes such as peace and enmity. This is a unique, comparative study of war propaganda in early modern times, and how it defined the roles of ruler and ruled alike. There were national differences, but ultimately all war stories were highly selective. Bloody defeat and uneventful everyday life were glossed over; what mattered were spectacular victories and royal glory. Yet in the end, the war stories peddled in both Sweden and France were profoundly challenged by the crisis of 1709.
