Book Synopsis The Glory of Water by : Karl Lagerfeld
Download or read book The Glory of Water written by Karl Lagerfeld and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rome would be unthinkable without its fountains. They play a fundamental role in this ancient city's history and to date have largely contributed to its beauty. The Fontana di Trevi acts like a magnet to the Roman tourist, often being their first destination of their visit. Rome has many famous fountains but also many that are almost secret and hardly known at all but are just as beautiful and interesting. With his camera, Karl Lagerfeld has embarked on a dialogue between the past and the future, the result being a series of 50 daguerreotypes. The daguerreotype process - an almost forgotten technique mastered by only a few specialized artists nowadays - was the first photographic process to permanently fix an image onto a medium. The surface of a daguerreotype is similar to that of a mirror, with the image made directly on the silvered surface. Depending on the angle viewed, the image can change from a positive to a negative and adapt an almost three-dimensional appearance. Karl Lagerfeld's photobook is a modern and colorful interpretation of the traditional monochromatic Daguerreotypeplates masterfully rendered on paper by Steidl.

Download or read book Water written by Alice Outwater and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2008-08-06 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An environmental engineer turned ecology writer relates the history of our waterways and her own growing understanding of what needs to be done to save this essential natural resource. Water: A Natural History takes us back to the diaries of the first Western explorers; it moves from the reservoir to the modern toilet, from the grasslands of the Midwest to the Everglades of Florida, through the guts of a wastewater treatment plant and out to the waterways again. It shows how human-engineered dams, canals and farms replaced nature's beaver dams, prairie dog tunnels, and buffalo wallows. Step by step, Outwater makes clear what should have always been obvious: while engineering can de-pollute water, only ecologically interacting systems can create healthy waterways. Important reading for students of environmental studies, the heart of this history is a vision of our land and waterways as they once were, and a plan that can restore them to their former glory: a land of living streams, public lands with hundreds of millions of beaver-built wetlands, prairie dog towns that increase the amount of rainfall that percolates to the groundwater, and forests that feed their fallen trees to the sea.

Download or read book Living Water written by Ronald E. Ramsey and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-05 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, Christians have gathered to hear messages of forgiveness and redemption, hope and abundant life. They have come from far and near to drink from the waters of everlasting life. Living Water is a collection of sermons conceived to reveal the love of God poured out in Jesus Christ as the true living water. These sermons address those particular ideas and beliefs necessary to sustain faith in the rough and tumble world of 21st Century living. Preached first at St. John's Episcopal Church, Arlington, MA, they originate out of the author's concerns as pastor and prophet for the spiritual well-being of a particular people in a particular place. Nevertheless, the themes contained in each sermon are universal, having relevance for all spiritual seekers throughout the world and across denominational and interfaith boundaries. Ronald Ramsey shows how the gift of faith, animated by the grace of God, can transform and enliven the human soul. Living Water is a treasure of pastoral insights and unique biblical perspectives which explores the challenges of human living and offers hope for spiritual seekers and prophetic light for the spiritual journey.
