Book Synopsis Kabir and the Inky Indigo Seas by : Vinita Srimal Garg
Download or read book Kabir and the Inky Indigo Seas written by Vinita Srimal Garg and published by Ukiyoto Publishing. This book was released on 2022-11-23 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kabir in his possession has a magical emerald green prism. It was gifted to him by Mighty Maya, King of Tataal. Kabir gathers that the prism is no ordinary stone. Once white light enters the prism the light breaks in to seven distinctive colours. Each colour represents a different land. The Inky Indigo gatekeeper, Neel tells Kabir that he (Kabir) has been chosen as the current prism keeper and the seven worlds shall be his to explore. Each world shall throw open a quest for him and he must rise to the challenge. For now the Inky Indigo seas need his urgent help. Their princess Matsya has been captured by the evil sea monster Kapatraja. He beseeches Kabir to help rescue her. Soon Kabir and his friends, Nimki and Latooriya embark on a journey of a lifetime – their visit to the Inky Indigo seas is nothing short of spectacular. On their mission they encounter creatures they had only heard of – gigantic whales, benign sea turtles, vain starfish, haughty crocodiles and the rather whimsical sea Goddess Varuni. The children have to race against time and collect all that is needed to rescue the sea princess Matsya from the monster Kapatraja. Just as they are inching closer to their final destination the submaboat comes to a halt and they find themselves trapped in the ghost infested Strip of the Living Dead. Will the children succeed in rescuing Matsya? And will they prove to be any match for the avaricious sea-monster, Kapatraja?

Book Synopsis Clothing through American History by : Kathleen A. Staples
Download or read book Clothing through American History written by Kathleen A. Staples and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-06-25 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of clothing during British colonial America examines items worn by the well-to-do as well as the working poor, the enslaved, and Native Americans, reconstructing their wardrobes across social, economic, racial, and geographic boundaries. Clothing through American History: The British Colonial Era presents, in six chapters, a description of all aspects of dress in British colonial America, including the social and historical background of British America, and covering men's, women's, and children's garments. The book shows how dress reflected and evolved with life in British colonial America as primitive settlements gave way to the growth of towns, cities, and manufacturing of the pre-Industrial Revolution. Readers will discover that just as in the present day, what people wore in colonial times represented an immediate, visual form of communication that often conveyed information about the real or intended social, economic, legal, ethnic, and religious status of the wearer. The authors have gleaned invaluable information from a wide breadth of primary source materials for all of the colonies: court documents and colonial legislation; diaries, personal journals, and business ledgers; wills and probate inventories; newspaper advertisements; paintings, prints, and drawings; and surviving authentic clothing worn in the colonies.

Book Synopsis Culture and Customs of Israel by : Rebecca L. Torstrick
Download or read book Culture and Customs of Israel written by Rebecca L. Torstrick and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2004-06-30 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students and other readers looking to more fully understand and appreciate Israelis of all backgrounds and their ways of life and culture now have a solid source of engaging, balanced, and accurate information. Israel's brief, turbulent history and the Arab-Israeli conflict are always taken into account in the narrative; however, the emphasis here is nonpolitical and encompassing of the heterogenous culture of its citizens, including Jews, Arabs, Druze, and others. The predominant Jewish culture itself is multicultural, with immigrants from all over the world. Israel, a tiny state about the size of New Jersey, weighs on the consciousness of the world more than it might small land mass might seem to merit. Located at the junction of Europe, Asia, and Africa, Israel has been a natural trade and migration route since prehistoric times. The region is also the birthplace of monotheism and an important religious site for Jews, Christians, and Muslims worldwide. Culture and Customs of Israel is the first in-depth survey available and comes at a particularly crucial juncture in history, as the balanced perspective adds a needed cultural dimension. Narrative chapters provide a clear overview of the history and religious nexus and discuss the crucial roles of literature and media to the citizens, issues in Israeli art and identity, the diversity in cuisine, a surprisingly traditional view of gender roles, social customs for all ethnicities, and the role of music and dance in nation building. A volume map, photos, chronology, and glossary complement the text.
Book Synopsis Saffron and Brimstone by : Elizabeth Hand
Download or read book Saffron and Brimstone written by Elizabeth Hand and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These “superbly crafted tales” showcase the World Fantasy Award–winning author’s “beautifully nuanced, often disquieting style” (Booklist). America boasts no finer, more acclaimed or accomplished literary fantasist than Elizabeth Hand. Poetry, magic, and love intermingle as she tears down the walls that separate the mundane from faerie and fancy. In this stunning collection of eight “strange stories,” the multiple Nebula Award– and World Fantasy Award–winning author weaves spells that enrapture her readers, ranging freely from Greek mythology to the contemporary nightmares of AIDS and 9/11. The celebrated chiller “Cleopatra Brimstone” chronicles the aftermath of a brutal rape and the bizarre transformation of a young entomology student into a vengeful angel of death. An emotionally unmoored tattoo artist discovers an unusual deck of tarot cards that enables her to profoundly alter bare skin and her personal reality in the mind-expanding masterwork “The Least Trumps.” An artist attempts to capture her wayward modern-day Odysseus in oils and otherwise; a woman tragically in love isolates herself from a catastrophe-prone world; the death of a dear friend inspires profound personal reflections and strange pagan rituals; and in the brilliant concluding story, an artifact from a lost world reveals the inescapable vulnerability of our own. Odd and touching, provocative and disturbing, the selections in this magnificent collection showcase a master of the fantastic at the very peak of her storytelling powers.

The result is a valuable document of a traditional style of clothing, now fast disappearing.

Book Synopsis Longing and Other Stories by : Jun'ichirō. Tanizaki
Download or read book Longing and Other Stories written by Jun'ichirō. Tanizaki and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jun’ichirō Tanizaki is one of the most eminent Japanese writers of the twentieth century, renowned for his investigations of family dynamics, eroticism, and cultural identity. Most acclaimed for his postwar novels such as The Makioka Sisters and The Key, Tanizaki made his literary debut in 1910. This book presents three powerful stories of family life from the first decade of Tanizaki’s career that foreshadow the themes the great writer would go on to explore. “Longing” recounts the fantastic journey of a precocious young boy through an eerie nighttime landscape. Replete with striking natural images and uncanny human encounters, it ends with a striking revelation. “Sorrows of a Heretic” follows a university student and aspiring novelist who lives in degrading poverty in a Tokyo tenement. Ambitious and tormented, the young man rebels against his family against a backdrop of sickness and death. “The Story of an Unhappy Mother” describes a vivacious but self-centered woman’s drastic transformation after a freak accident involving her son and daughter-in-law. Written in different genres, the three stories are united by a focus on mothers and sons and a concern for Japan’s traditional culture in the face of Westernization. The longtime Tanizaki translators Anthony H. Chambers and Paul McCarthy masterfully bring these important works to an Anglophone audience.
