Book excerpt: The Equator has no tangible existence beyond maps, but yet it lives, a hugely significant symbol in the minds and hearts of navigators, travellers, poets, madmen and dreamers of all eras. It is the world's girdle, its 24,000 miles or 38,640 kilometres passing through the Ecuadorian Andes and the mist-shrouded Ruwenzori Mountains, running along the courses of both the Amazon and the Congo rivers, and cutting through Africa's vast Lake Victoria, and the coral atolls and volcanic hulk of Krakatoa, in the Indian Ocean. The eminent Italian historian Gianni Guadalupi, and writer Antony Shugaar, have put together this inspirational collection of amazing equatorial adventures. Many have responded to the challenge of the Line, setting out to discover the mysterious source of the Nile, the perils of the Doldrums ('the living death in life' Coleridge called it') or the powerful force of El Niño, the quest for a lost Eden and for El Dorado. Others have sought a new life, like Elisa the 'nude Baroness' of the Galapagos, or Robert Louis Stevenson, for whom the fearsome King Tembinok built at Latitude Zero in the Gilbert Islands, an enclave named Equator City. So many grand expeditions and projects, so many great explorers and eccentrics, make this anthology a joyous voyage of discovery.

Book excerpt: Widely considered a jewel of contemporary travel literature, Equator is Thurston Clarke’s magnificent, witty account of his solo journey along the earth’s torrid midsection—a grueling twenty-five-thousand-mile odyssey that spanned three years and as many continents. His was a perilous trek across an almost surreal landscape—where a first-class hotel appeared smack in the middle of a leper colony and a one-time Pacific island paradise stood as a hideous, bomb-blasted testament to nuclear folly. Along the way Clarke encountered the world’s heaviest rat, the earth’s highest volcano, and the king of a Micronesian island, wearing flip-flops and a novelty T-shirt. Throughout, Clarke’s unflagging sense of humor and wonder make Equator a classic of its kind.

Book excerpt: Decades ago, the AIDS pandemic witnessed how HIV ravaged the body of men. In this narrative, the author addresses the fundamental differences highlighted by the artist in advertising. Set against a backdrop of rapid travel on a train traveling through various countries. After the author departs the AIDS conference, she weaves in and out of a time. The brief span of seconds to minutes wondering whether she too would die from HIV or what would happen to her body, as the mirror was men dying and wasting of a rapid loss or gain of weight; At the same time, its impact of HIV/AIDS has on the body took decades of public reckoning that the body of women and its perils did not come before as few magazines looked this way. It is not until she finds an up-close view of the work of the creative fashion photography Toscani. The same one demonized by the public for his photography embedded in the print world of fashion. When she decides to interview him and other journalists, the twist is a sparkle of mysticism that takes place while south of Europe; short literary prose addresses the biopic non-fiction moments interconnected with the minutiae of critique. Here, readers get a glimpse into the truth of the 1990s that was also called a lie. The impact HIV/AIDS has on the body didn't realize itself until decades later. The work also sheds light by raising intellectual specter of AIDS, the same one that impacted the bodies captured by Toscani: we find, after all, they may not exist as only white bodies, but perhaps, hues in between the moral compass of Colors we see black, brown, yellow and red, as evidence, such facts may one day come true and questions of fact is how to do you gain weight after decades of HIV/AIDS wasting? How do you survive a pandemic that new medications helped to sustain lives, but if the body witnesses wreckage of the past what references are there in the present within the art world advancing fact in fiction in an image?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to 1735, South America was terra incognita to many Europeans. But that year, the Paris Academy of Sciences sent a mission to the Spanish American province of Quito (in present-day Ecuador) to study the curvature of the earth at the Equator. Equipped with quadrants and telescopes, the mission’s participants referred to the transfer of scientific knowledge from Europe to the Andes as a “sacred fire” passing mysteriously through European astronomical instruments to observers in South America.By taking an innovative interdisciplinary look at the traces of this expedition, Measuring the New World examines the transatlantic flow of knowledge from West to East. Through ephemeral monuments and geographical maps, this book explores how the social and cultural worlds of South America contributed to the production of European scientific knowledge during the Enlightenment. Neil Safier uses the notebooks of traveling philosophers, as well as specimens from the expedition, to place this particular scientific endeavor in the larger context of early modern print culture and the emerging intellectual category of scientist as author.
