Book Synopsis Les Romains et L'Eau by : Alain Malissard
Download or read book Les Romains et L'Eau written by Alain Malissard and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 1999-12 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [This book is written in French.] Vitale pour toute société humaine, l'eau est pour les Romains le symbole même de leur existence-depuis que Romulus, le fondateur, a été sauvé des eaux du Tibre-ainsi que de leur pouvoir sur les forces naturelles et sur les hommes. Ce livre montre comment ils ont répondu aux nécessités immédiates, mais aussi joint l'utile au plaisir, le futile à la grandeur. Avec une précision qui surprendra les ingénieurs et une suimplic-ité dont les profanes lui sauront gré, l'auteur retrace la quête obstinée de techniques souterraines et aériennes, qui permettent de capter les eaux dans les lointaines montagnes, de les conduire jusqu'aux villes, de les purifier, de les conserver et de les évacuer. On rencontre ici les Romains dans leur intimité, on entend leurs bavardages autour des fontaines, ou dans les latrines, on surprend leur admiration pour les empereurs évergètes qui leur offrent des thermes somptueux, mais on y trouve aussi les calculs des ingénieurs, leurs tâtonnements, leurs échecs et leurs réussites, et surtout la volonté de puissance d'un peuple qui, pour maîtriser la source de la vie, jetait à travers les plaines et par-dessus les val-lées profondes les arches puissantes et élégantes de ses aqueducs.

Enter Monsieur Black Fang Delacroix and his Legion of Madmen, Captain Heinrich Von Faust and the might of the German army, and a nefarious secret society known only asThe Cabal. Together they carry all the makings for armageddon. Unfortunately, "armageddon" in this case is literal. These dastardly villains have united with the sole purpose of destroying the world! But not if Brick Brannigan has anything to say about it! Working together with the lovely and brilliant scholar Dr. Liliana Halifax, the dapper pilot Archibald Nero, and a brave and loyal graduate assistant named Andrew, Hugo "Brick" Brannigan is all that stands between us and the end of existence as we know it. Can he, in fact, save the world? Written in the thrilling style of 1930s pulp icons Lester Dent and Norvell Page, Brick Brannigan is Knee-Deep in Peril! is filled with mad adventures, perilous desert crossings, exotic foreign cuisine, rare and lethal poisons, swing music, and evil subterfuge at every turn. Join our adventurers and return to a simpler yet infinitely stranger (and more unsettling!) time in our history. What are you waiting for?

Book Synopsis The Perils of Joy by : Samuli Schielke
Download or read book The Perils of Joy written by Samuli Schielke and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2012-12-13 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mulids, festivals in honor of Muslim "friends of God," have been part of Muslim religious and cultural life for close to a thousand years. While many Egyptians see mulids as an expression of joy and love for the Prophet Muhammad and his family, many others see them as opposed to Islam, a sign of a backward mentality, a piece of folklore at best. What is it about a mulid that makes it a threat to Islam and modernity in the eyes of some, and an indication of pious devotion in the eyes of others? What makes the celebration of a saint’s festival appear in such dramatically different contours? The Perils of Joy offers a rich investigation, both historical and ethnographic, of conflicting and transforming attitudes toward festivals in contemporary Egypt. Schielke argues that mulids are characterized by a utopian momentum of the extraordinary that troubles the grand schemes of order and perfection that have become hegemonic in Egypt since the twentieth century. Not an opposition between state and civil society, nor a division between Islamists and secularists, but rather the competition between different perceptions of what makes up a complete life forms the central line of conflict in the contestation of festive culture.

Book Synopsis Purity and Danger by : Professor Mary Douglas
Download or read book Purity and Danger written by Professor Mary Douglas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purity and Danger is acknowledged as a modern masterpiece of anthropology. It is widely cited in non-anthropological works and gave rise to a body of application, rebuttal and development within anthropology. In 1995 the book was included among the Times Literary Supplement's hundred most influential non-fiction works since WWII. Incorporating the philosophy of religion and science and a generally holistic approach to classification, Douglas demonstrates the relevance of anthropological enquiries to an audience outside her immediate academic circle. She offers an approach to understanding rules of purity by examining what is considered unclean in various cultures. She sheds light on the symbolism of what is considered clean and dirty in relation to order in secular and religious, modern and primitive life.
