A fascinating look into the life of the famous Czech architect who fused Baroque and Gothic styles. At the turn of the eighteenth century, Jan Blažej Santini Aichel (1677–1723), commonly recognized as Santini, began his career as an architect in Prague and became world-renowned for his mystical Baroque Gothic architecture. In Jan Blažej Santini and His Architectural World, a new generation of scholars draws up a portrait of Santini and his gems of Czech Baroque architecture. From detailing the particulars of the everyday life of a genius architect growing up in Prague and studying under Italian architects to engaging with previous interpretations of Santini’s work, this book interrogates the true value of Santini’s influence on European architecture.

In the bitter cold, black, predawn of Christmas Eve 1972, the commercial fishing vessel LADY-FAME was struck and capsized by a forty-foot rogue wave while crossing the Humboldt Bay bar.Contemporary artist Peter Santino, her first mate, wrote fifty thousand words during the months immediately following while drifting through the Amazonian jungle on a river boat, describing every thought and action that occurred during that sinking near-death experience. Steering clear of embellishment and trickery, constraining himself in an attempt to create a record of absolute Truth.Now, forty years later and after revisiting Melville's Moby-Dick, Captain Ahab's declaration - "Truth hath no confines" - guides the rebirth of the original manuscript, now with full-bore embellishment and clever tricks of the author's trade Worry over Sicilian curses; fear the Klabautermann; laugh with Groovy Daddy, Charles Motherthanker III and all the other prankster, outsider artists who lived with Santino in a raw Eureka warehouse. Slip through pungent, dirty dock life and salty sex scenes; thrill at mountaineering feats and high seas puking. Illuminated by rants on the failures of Politics, LSD and Art, during that most critical moment of the 20th Century - the death of The 60s and the birth of... The Whatever.And then there's the soundtrack...LADY-FAME; or, The Fluke.

Reagan Versus The Sandinistas

Reagan Versus The Sandinistas

Thomas W Walker; Harvey Williams; Peter Kornbluh; Eva Gold

Routledge
2020
sidottu
The product of research and investigation by a team of sixteen authors, Reagan versus the Sandinistas is the most comprehensive and current study to date of the Reagan administration's mounting campaign to reverse the Sandinista revolution. The authors thoroughly examine all major aspects of Reagan's "low-intensity war," from the U.S. government's attempts at economic destabilization to direct CIA sabotage and the sponsorship of the contras or freedom fighters. They also explore less-public tactics such as electronic penetration, behind-the-scenes manipulation of religious and ethnic tensions, and harassment of U.S. Nicaraguan specialists and "fellow travelers." The book concludes with a consideration of the impact of these activities and their implications for international law, U.S. interests, U.S. polity, and Nicaragua itself. Reagan versus the Sandinistas is designed not only for courses on Latin America, U.S. foreign policy, and international relations, but also for students, scholars, and others interested in understanding one of the most massive, complex efforts—short of direct intervention—organized by the United States to overthrow the government of another country.

Petar's Rose

Petar's Rose

Emil Zivadinovic

Austin Macauley Publishers
2024
pokkari
Set in the little-known backdrop of Serbia in the year 2000, Petar's Rose unfolds in a world seemingly insulated from external influences, offering a glimpse into a setting exotic to Western readers. It's a time marked by the aftermath of wars and isolation, where the young protagonist, immersed in a dreamlike state, grapples with the harsh reality of loss. Refusing to accept the passing of a girl he loves, he embarks on a quest to reconnect with his lost love, delving into ancient beliefs and forgotten lore, daring to cross into unknown realms. Despite its themes of loss and longing, the story radiates with joy and humour, painting a vivid portrait of life in a unique and extraordinary society. The narrative offers a perspective seldom encountered by Anglo-American audiences: a protagonist who, despite his education, finds himself helplessly caught between the contrasting worlds of the West and the East, the present and the past. This tale is a genuine testament to the resilience and spirit of an individual living on the fringes of Europe, navigating the complexities of love, tradition, and identity.

Petar & Liza

Petar & Liza

FANTAGRAPHICS

When Petar returns home to civilian life after his two-year conscription in the ex-Yugoslavian army, he finds himself adrift. Even amidst the most raucous, late-night parties, he feels detached from it all, like a ghost haunting the living. But a serendipitous encounter with Liza, a dancer with a joie de vivre about her, brings a flood of vibrant color into his gray life. Their lyrical romance forms an oasis in a bleak world, until his inner demons start to reveal themselves. A heartfelt character study, this graphic novel paints the portrait of a complex protagonist often at odds with himself. At times, Petar writes soulful, life-affirming poetry, while at others he falls into spells of depression and self-destruction. Petar & Liza is a work of meticulous expressionism that reflects Miroslav Sekulic-Struja's vivid artistic vision. In dazzling gouache, Sekulic-Struja conjures an earthy, street-level view of humanity, bringing to life bohemian environs of dive bars, back rooms, and crowded cityscapes. He paints a world in darkness and turmoil, in which rays of sunshine occasionally peek through.
