Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Universidad de La Rioja organiza el Congreso Internacional 'Imagines. La Antigüedad en las artes escénicas y visuales' que tendrá lugar del 22 al 24 de octubre. Este encuentro científico reunirá a expertos académicos de diversos campus de España, Italia, Alemania, Inglaterra y Francia en torno al legado artístico y cultural del mundo antiguo. Desde el siglo XVII, la Antigüedad se convirtió en un modelo a seguir, en una escuela de virtud pública y privada, tesoro de preceptos morales y personajes ejemplares. Esta circunstancia ha abierto una línea de investigación, todavía minoritaria, como es la 'Recepción' de la Antigüedad en ámbitos tan variados como la política, el derecho, el arte, la literatura. El Congreso Internacional 'Imagines. La Antigüedad en las artes escénicas y visuales' se entronca en esta línea de investigación. A lo largo de tres jornadas, del 22 al 24 de octubre, el programa académico se desarrollará en torno a tres ejes principales: el legado de la Antigüedad en las Artes Escénicas (Teatro, Cine y Opera); en las Artes Visuales (Arquitectura, Escultura, Pintura y Artes Decorativas); y el uso didáctico en los niveles de enseñanza secundaria y superior para mostrar la actualidad de "lo antiguo."

Book excerpt: Cleopatra, la última reina de Egipto, es una de las mujeres más misteriosas de la historia: pese a que todos reconocemos su nombre, apenas sabemos nada de ella. La leyenda la retrata como una sirena seductora, olvidando que, por encima de todo, Cleopatra fue una astuta estratega y una negociadora ingeniosa, una gobernanta capaz de dirigir una flota, de suprimir una revuelta popular, de controlar las oscilaciones de la moneda y de combatir la hambruna de su pueblo. Stacy Schiff ha recuperado las fuentes clásicas y ha separado los hechos de la ficción para rescatar a la carismática reina cuya muerte instauró un nuevo orden mundial una generación antes del nacimientode Cristo. Rica en detalle, de alcance épico, la obra de Schiff es una luminosa y original reconstrucción de una vida deslumbrante.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pocas personalidades de la Antigüedad son más famosas y, sin embargo, peor comprendidas y más vilipendiadas que Cleopatra. Para el gran público, su nombre evoca a una diva enjoyada y a los destellos del brillo de Hollywood, no a una eminencia regia capaz de conducir ejércitos. Los más apenas recuerdan una nebulosa fama de bella y malvada seductora. Cleopatra hoy es más una fábula, el Oriente encarnado, que alguien que vivió en su propio espacio y tiempo, con una imagen construida a partir de maledicencias, tergiversaciones y bulos, desde Augusto hasta nuestros días, y que dice más de los miedos romanos –a la mujer poderosa, al extranjero, al otro, en definitiva–, que de la vida de quien fue la última reina de Egipto. En el libro Cleopatra. Biografía de una reina , Duane Roller atraviesa ese espejo deformado para reconstruir la vida de una líder erudita y visionaria cuyo objetivo fue siempre la preservación de su dinastía y de su reino, navegando en las turbulentas aguas de un mundo mediterráneo donde la contestación a una Roma omnímoda parecía imposible –y con mucha más inteligencia, elegancia y tacto que la mayoría de sus aliados y enemigos masculinos–. Su convincente biografía de Cleopatra VII la muestra como administradora de un Estado que llegó a abarcar desde Asia Menor hasta las fronteras egipcias con Nubia, como comandante naval que dirigió su propia flota en la malhadada batalla de Accio y como erudita y defensora de las artes, digno miembro de una estirpe, los Tolomeos, que había convertido su capital, Alejandría, en el faro cultural del mundo helenístico. Incluso sus relaciones con Julio César y Marco Antonio –origen de su reputación de pérfida seductora– fueron políticas de Estado destinadas a asegurar la preservación dinástica. Una biografía soberbia y esclarecedora de una mujer única, Cleopatra.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling and legendary author of Helen of Troy and Elizabeth I now turns her gaze on Emperor Nero, one of the most notorious and misunderstood figures in history. Built on the backs of those who fell before it, Julius Caesar’s imperial dynasty is only as strong as the next person who seeks to control it. In the Roman Empire no one is safe from the sting of betrayal: man, woman—or child. As a boy, Nero’s royal heritage becomes a threat to his very life, first when the mad emperor Caligula tries to drown him, then when his great aunt attempts to secure her own son’s inheritance. Faced with shocking acts of treachery, young Nero is dealt a harsh lesson: it is better to be cruel than dead. While Nero idealizes the artistic and athletic principles of Greece, his very survival rests on his ability to navigate the sea of vipers that is Rome. The most lethal of all is his own mother, a cold-blooded woman whose singular goal is to control the empire. With cunning and poison, the obstacles fall one by one. But as Agrippina’s machinations earn her son a title he is both tempted and terrified to assume, Nero’s determination to escape her thrall will shape him into the man he was fated to become—an Emperor who became legendary. With impeccable research and captivating prose, The Confessions of Young Nero is the story of a boy’s ruthless ascension to the throne. Detailing his journey from innocent youth to infamous ruler, it is an epic tale of the lengths to which man will go in the ultimate quest for power and survival.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young woman encounters strange events in her Mexican hometown in this novel by an author who “immerses us...in her wickedly funny and imaginative world” (Latina). Leaving Tabasco tells of the coming of age of Delmira Ulloa, raised in an all-female home in Agustini, in the Mexican province of Tabasco. In Agustini it is not unusual to see your grandmother float above the bed when she sleeps, or to purchase torrential rains at a traveling fair, or to watch your family’s elderly serving woman develop stigmata, then disappear completely, to be canonized as a local saint. But as Delmira becomes a woman, she will set out on a search for her missing father, and must make a choice that could mean leaving her home forever, in a tale filled with both depth and delightful mystery that poses questions about just how real the real world is. “To flee Agustini is to leave not just a town but the viscerally primal dreamscape it represents.”— The New York Times Book Review “Vibrant...Each chapter is an adventure.”—The Boston Globe “We happily share with [Delmira] her life, including the infinitely charming town she inhabits [and] her grandmother’s fantastic imagination.”—The Washington Post Book World

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Autobiography of Henry VIII is the magnificent historical novel that established Margaret George's career. Evocatively written in the first person as Henry VIII's private journals, the novel was the product of fifteen years of meticulous research and five handwritten drafts. Much has been written about the mighty, egotistical Henry VIII: the man who dismantled the Church because it would not grant him the divorce he wanted; who married six women and beheaded two of them; who executed his friend Thomas More; who sacked the monasteries; who longed for a son and neglected his daughters, Mary and Elizabeth; who finally grew fat, disease-ridden, dissolute. Now, in her magnificent work of storytelling and imagination Margaret George bring us Henry VIII's story as he himself might have told it, in memoirs interspersed with irreverent comments from his jester and confident, Will Somers. Brilliantly combining history, wit, dramatic narrative, and an extraordinary grasp of the pleasures and perils of power, this monumental novel shows us Henry the man more vividly than he has ever been seen before.

Book excerpt: Para los egipcios, fue una diosa viviente. Para los macedonios, una reina. Los romanos la consideraban un “ser monstruoso”. Pascal escribió que la forma de su nariz cambió la historia del mundo. Shakespeare la retrató como un icono del amor trágico. Pero, ¿quién fue Cleopatra en realidad? Fue la última soberana de la dinastía Ptolemaica macedonia, que había gobernado Egipto durante tres siglos desde la esplendorosa y multicultural Alejandría, la mayor ciudad del Mediterráneo. Despiadada en el trato con sus enemigos, incluso con los de su propia familia, Cleopatra supo gobernar su reino en medio de grandes dificultades y casi triunfó en su intento de crear un imperio oriental capaz de rivalizar con el creciente poder de Roma. Extraordinariamente inteligente, sus mitificadas relaciones con Julio César y Marco Antonio tuvieron una vertiente más política que amorosa. ¿Dónde acaba el mito y empieza la realidad? Desmontando tópicos y fabulaciones románticas, esta deslumbrante biografía nos presenta el verdadero rostro de la más legendaria reina egipcia.

Book excerpt: Famously described as the 'Apostle to the Apostles', after her discovery of Jesus' resurrection, Mary has sparked curiosity, controversy and veneration since her name first appeared in the Gospel of Mark. But who was Mary Magdalene? Was she a prostitute, a goddess, a feminist icon, a church leader or all of these things? Using testaments, letters and narrative Margaret George brings to life one of the most mysterious and controversial characters in the bible, creating an epic that is both immediate and moving. 'Margaret George proves herself to be the very best when it comes to historical fiction. Her new novel is a gripping and moving story' Barbara Taylor Bradford
