Download or read book The Teleios Ring written by Adam Loxley and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2011 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a quiet corner in rural Kent, a 75 year old spinster is found dead at the bottom of her stairs, apparently killed while disturbing a burglary. Within days, two more people have been brutally murdered, triggering a race against time to catch a serial-killer before it is too late.Local Police Officer, John Garrick is on the case, closely followed by Journalist Neil Ashton, both of them out of their depth but both trying to unravel the mystery of something called Teleios, the word sprayed in bright, red letters at each of the murder scenes. And unknown to both of them, sinister, ex-government security agent, Craven, also wants to find out what Teleios means – but for very different reasons. What none of them realise is the magnitude of what they are dealing with; a chain of events that threatens the very heart of the establishment and which will change the fabric of society forever. An outcome so unimaginable that people are prepared to kill for it. Will any of them get there in time? And when they discover the true meaning of Teleios, will their lives ever be the same again?The plot combines the classic English murder mystery with the murky world of politics and international espionage. In an old fashion sense, the story is a mixture of Agatha Christie and John le Carré. In contemporary terms, the story is told from the perspective of three different protagonists, in a style reminiscent of Robert Goddard and Susan Hill.

Book Synopsis Roman Heavy Cavalry (2) by : Andrei Evgenevich Negin
Download or read book Roman Heavy Cavalry (2) written by Andrei Evgenevich Negin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-26 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the twilight of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th–6th centuries, the elite of the field armies was the heavy armoured cavalry – the cataphracts, clad in lamellar, scale, mail and padded fabric armour. After the fall of the West, the Greek-speaking Eastern or Byzantine Empire survived for nearly a thousand years, and cavalry remained predominant in its armies, with the heaviest armoured regiments continuing to provide the ultimate shock-force in battle. Accounts from Muslim chroniclers show that the ironclad cataphract on his armoured horse was an awe-inspiring enemy: '...they advanced against you, iron-covered – one would have said that they advanced on horses which seemed to have no legs'. This new study, replete with stunning full-colour illustrations of the various units, offers an engaging insight into the fearsome heavy cavalry units that battled against the enemies of Rome's Eastern Empire.

Book Synopsis The Hera of Zeus by : Vinciane Pirenne-Delforge
Download or read book The Hera of Zeus written by Vinciane Pirenne-Delforge and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goddess Hera is represented in mythology as an irascible wife and imperfect mother in the face of a frivolous Zeus. Beginning with the Iliad, many narrative traditions depict her wrath, the infidelities of her royal husband and the persecutions to which she subjects his illegitimate offspring. But how to relate this image to the cults of the sovereign goddess in her sanctuaries across Greece? This book uses the Hera of Zeus to open up new perspectives for understanding the society of the gods, the fate of heroes and the lives of men. As the intimate enemy of Zeus but also the fierce guardian of the legitimacy and integrity of the Olympian family, she takes shape in more subtle and complex ways that make it possible to rethink the configuration of power in ancient Greece, with the tensions that inhabited it, and thus how polytheism works.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Dixon applies rhetorical theory to The Faerie Queene, highlighting the importance of rhetoric and locating the inventio, or organizing principle, of Spenser's epic narrative in the conception of justice. He demonstrates how Spenser adapts classical rhetoric to the poetics of romance-epic and illustrates the usefulness of rhetorical analysis as a complement to allegorical studies and the New Critical and new historicist approaches that currently dichotomize Spenserian scholarship.

Download or read book Blessed Thessaly written by Emma Aston and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thessaly was a region of great importance in the ancient Greek world, possessing both agricultural abundance and a strategic position between north and south. It presents historians with the challenge of seeing beyond traditional stereotypes (wealth and witches, horses and hospitality) that have coloured perceptions of its people from antiquity to the present day. It also presents a complex and illuminating interaction between polis and ethnos identity. In daily life, most Thessalians primarily operated within, and identified with, their specific polis; at the same time, the regional dimension – being Thessalian – was rarely out of sight for long. It manifested itself in stories told, in deities worshipped, in modes of political co-operation, in language, rituals, sites and objects. Chapter by chapter, this book follows the emergence, development and adaptation of Thessalian regional identity from the Archaic period to the early second century BC. In so doing, rather than rejecting ancient stereotypes as a mere inconvenience for the historian, it considers the constant dialogue between Thessalian self-presentation and depictions of the Thessalian character by other Greeks. It also confronts some of the prejudices and assumptions still influencing modern approaches to studying the region. All in all, the reader is invited to see Thessaly not as a region of marginal significance in Greek history, but as occupying a central role in many aspects of ancient cultural and political discourse.
