Описание: "The most entertaining yet substantial historical novel since Joseph O'Connor's Star of the Sea". (Irish Times). The Herbalist is the electrifying first novel from Niamh Boyce, winner of the 2012 Hennesssy XO Award for New Irish Writing.
It is a devastating and emotional story of yearning and obsession in 1930s rural Ireland. "A vividly imagined tale of love, lust and longing...It is also an important book, which adds a rich fictional version of Irish history to a stark period of Irish life ...a compelling read with a cathartic ending that deserves a wide readership. It remains authentic and moving to the end".
(Sunday Business Post). "Niamh Boyce's compelling female characters push against the rigid social parameters of 1930s Ireland, yearning for the light of the outside world, which comes in the shape of a stranger trading in herbs, cures, complications and danger". (Dermot Bolger).
"Boyce's subject matter may be dark, and she treats it with the seriousness it deserves, but she writes with a lightness of touch not often seen in the genre ...just as the readers of The Herbalist share the women's fear as we read, we share their wonder and excitement as well. This is a hugely impressive and wonderfully assured debut novel". (Irish Times).
"An elegant morality tale about the inescapable strictures of women's lives...Her publisher describes her as "a dazzling new voice". I cannot disagree". (Sunday Times).
"It reminds me of a whole raft of great Irish writers...There's a lot going on that is slowly revealed and the writing is beautiful...A serious new literary talent". (TV3). "I read The Herbalist with great pleasure.
The characters jump alive from the page and I had to read fast to find out what happened, totally gripped". (Patricia Ferguson, author of The Midwife's Daughter). "Builds to a thematically satisfying, even exciting, conclusion".
(Irish Independent). "Comparisons to Edna O'Brien and Pat McCabe are more than justified. That said, Boyce has a unique voice and sensibility, one that's entirely her own".
(Image). "A fascinating and revealing snapshot of life in 1930's Ireland and in particular a woman's lot in life. I suffered, raged and celebrated with the exceptionally well developed characters and cancelled all engagements in order to finish the book".
(Goodreads.com). "A riveting story that electrifies and dazzles with wonderful imagery, exposing the shadowy side of Irish life". (Writing).
"The book is packed with emotion. I wasn't far in on the night I found myself an emotional wreck, sobbing my heart out and needing to put the book away. It didn't stay away for long, I was hooked and I needed more".
(Afterthefinalchapters.com). Niamh Boyce trained as a painter and started writing just four years ago. She lives in the Irish midlands with her family.

Описание: This collection of essays brings together contributions from judges, legal scholars and practitioners in order to provide a comprehensive assessment of the law and practice of exceptions from the principle of free movement. It aims: – to conceptualise how justification arguments relating to exceptions to free movement operate in the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union and national courts; – to develop a comprehensive and original account of empirical problems on the application of proportionality; – to explore the legal and policy issues which shape the interactions between the EU and national authorities, including national courts, in the context of the efforts made by Member States to protect national differences. The book analyses economic, social, cultural, political, environmental and consumer protection justifications. These are examined in the light of the rebalancing of the EU constitutional order introduced by the Lisbon Treaty and the implications of the financial crisis in the Union.

Описание:
Revolution and Rebellion in Mexican Film examines Mexican films of political conflict from the early studio Revolutionary films of the 1930-50s up to the campaigning Zapatista films of the 2000s. Mapping this evolution out for the first time, the author takes three key events under consideration: the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920); the student movement and massacre in 1968; and, finally, the more recent Zapatista Rebellion (1994-present).
Analyzing films such as Vamanos con Pancho Villa (1936), El Grito (1968), and Corazon del Tiempo (2008), the author uses the term 'political conflict' to refer to those violent disturbances, dramatic periods of confrontation, injury and death, which characterize particular historical events involving state and non-state actors that may have a finite duration, but have a long-lasting legacy on the nation. These conflicts have been an important component of Mexican film since its inception and include studio productions, documentaries, and independent films.

Описание: Since its establishment in 2011, the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has become a pivotal actor in EU financial market regulation and supervision. Its burgeoning influence extends from the rule-making process to supervisory convergence/coordination to direct supervision. Reflecting the now critical importance of ESMA to how the EU regulates and supervises financial markets, and with ESMA at an inflection point in its evolution, particularly in light of the Commission's 2017 proposals to reform ESMA and the UK's withdrawal from the EU, The Age of ESMA maps, contextualises, and examines ESMA's role and the implications for EU financial market governance.

Описание: The scale of the Great Irish Famine, and the horror of it, were unprecedented. It permeated everything, the traces of which remain to this day. But the visual dimensions of the loss of life and the erosions of language and culture remained unaddressed until Quinnipiac University opened Ireland`s Great Hunger Museum in 2012, to considerable acclaim.
