Encountering Material Culture Through Archaeological Fiction
Investigating the representation of artefacts, objects and ‘things’ in a range of predominantly Western archaeological fiction from the late Victorian period to the modern day, this book examines the narratives through which humanity represents its own material heritage in relation to notions of enchantment, exhibition, estrangement, adventure, tourism and waste. Kerry Dodd asserts that comprehending the structures through which material culture is presented within archaeological media reveals the structures that transform an object from rubbish to relic. Calling upon such indicative literature, films, TV series and video games as Tomb Raider, Indiana Jones, Uncharted and Relic Hunter, this book explores the depiction of material culture through three principal areas – relics, exhibition and adventure.Outlining a critical framework of artefact representation, Dodd argues that such iconic moments as Howard Carter’s remark that he saw ‘wonderful things’ when he broke into the antechamber of Tutankhamun’s tomb remain recognisable through the evocation of a spectacular visual, despite little concrete definition of the objects witnessed. This book offers a unique exploration of how such figures as Indiana Jones, Lara Croft and Carter have cemented a cultural recognition of what an artefact constitutes as being dependent on how an object is encountered. It is through the very ‘wonder’ of things that Dodd breaks down the boundaries between popular and professional archaeology by pushing forward critical considerations of material culture.

Atlantis Aftermath: Investigating events and locations of post-eruption Bronze Age Minoan Civilization. Traveling archaeological sites, ex
Atlantis AftermathInvestigating events and locations of post-eruption Bronze Age Minoan Civilization. Traveling archaeological sites, examining ancient artifacts, and historical connections, with never revealed new Minoan discoveriesand insights from Santorini, Crete, Ireland and Spain. The newly revealed story of the real Atlantis, it's destruction, and ensuing aftermath. I complete the story, continuing the investigation with museums and archaeological sites in Ireland, Switzerland, and Spain, drawing fascinating conclusions from archaeological sites and overlooked evidence in central Spain, Switzerland, and Ireland. The Bronze Age Minoan civilization is much larger and richer than anyone has previously revealed The Atlantis story's essential elements are an advanced civilization, a large island empire, and a great natural catastrophe. A connection with the Atlantis story was immediately made by many with the archaeological discovery in the 1960's of an advanced Bronze Age civilization on the southern coast of Santorini called Ancient Akrotiri. It is also known as the 'Pompeii of the Aegean, ' as covered by the Thera eruption, and many investigators quickly began to posture Thera and Akrotiri were the basis for the story of Atlantis. Now my travels take me to Spain, investigating what occurred in the aftermath of the eruption, exploring the evidence and artifacts located in museums and archaeological sites in Spain as well as my investigation leading the to Switzerland and back to Ireland.

Kerry Katona: Too Much, Too Young

Kerry Katona: Too Much, Too Young

By the age of 11 Kerry Katona had lived in countless different homes and attended 8 different schools. By the age of 13 she could beat grown men at pool and knew how to look after her mother during a breakdown. By the age of 15 she had lived in women's refuges, the heart of London's East End gangster-land and several different foster homes. By the age of 18 she was a pop star ...Too Much, Too Young is the moving, gripping - yet often very funny - account of one child's unique upbringing, and a woman's journey through pop stardom, motherhood and marriage heartbreak. From the backstreets of Warrington to the smoky pubs of the East End, from the shelters where victims of domestic violence hide, to the exclusive hotels where international pop stars party, this is an extraordinary read. Better than fiction, more dramatic than the tabloids, more emotional than the soaps and funnier than a reality TV show ... welcome to Kerry's life.

KHA / Kerry Hill Architects: Works and Projects celebrates the buildings, resorts and spaces designed by the internationally renowned practice founded by the late Kerry Hill in Singapore in 1979. KHA has grown through the decades from a small studio in Singapore, known for redefining boutique hotels and resorts in Asia, to an architectural practice that embraces a distinguished global portfolio of public buildings and private residences, while continuing to pioneer innovation in resorts and hotels throughout the world. This comprehensive illustrated monograph captures KHA’s commitment to achieving authenticity and exactitude in its work. The buildings presented are highly sensitive to their settings, their relationship to the landscape and their cultural contexts. These values of place are also celebrated in their interior spaces, which are enriched by contemporary crafting and highly considered details. KHA / Kerry Hill Architects: Works and Projects brings together a corpus of more than fifty completed works from 1992 to the present, with an emphasis on KHA’s recent projects. These include the trio of newly completed and celebrated Aman hotels in Japan, Amanyangyun, near Shanghai, and the recently completed Walyalup Civic Centre in Fremantle, Western Australia. Added to this are a range of new commissions currently being developed by the practice’s two studios, including two wineries – one in Western Australia and the other in Tasmania – and a remarkable design for a desert resort in Saudi Arabia.
