Описание: This fascinating illustrated history delves into the chivalric orders originally founded during the Crusades--revealing the truth behind some of Europe's most misunderstood organizations. The Templars, the Knights Hospitallers, the Teutonic Knights: the chivalric orders founded during the Crusades evoke romantic images of warrior monks who were fierce but spiritual, pious yet battle ready. But what were they really like? How did their organizations form, rise, and decline? And how much of what we believe about them is myth? The Knights Templar tells the stories of the major and minor military orders from the eleventh century to--in the case of the surviving orders--the present day. Organized chronologically, it follows the fates of orders, from the foundation of the Knights of St Peter in 1053 to the major crusading era in the Holy Land in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, from the Teutonic Knights in the Baltic to the Reconquista in Iberia and on to the Hospitallers' later ventures in the Mediterranean and even in the Caribbean. Full of surprising details, the book not only explores how the military and religious aspects of the orders were reconciled, but also looks more broadly at the orders' work, from the Templars' role in the development of modern banking to hospital, castle, and cathedral building, to the Teutonic Knights' treatment of nonbelievers, to the Hospitallers' battles against Barbary pirates.

Описание:
Set on the rugged island of Newfoundland, OF SEA AND SEED takes the reader on a tragic journey through the 1920s as one family strives to hold onto life in the face of secrets, betrayal, and tsunami. Chronicling this journey is the family matriarch, Kathleen Kerrigan, who is condemned to an afterlife of atonement for the depth of her crimes in life. But what possible mortal sin could cause heaven to banish this loving mother, grandmother, and storyteller?
A poetic, literary masterpiece, this first book of The Kerrigan Chronicles illuminates the depths of the human heart as it follows three generations suffering from toxic family secrets, shocking betrayals, and the harsh everyday reality that accompanies a life entangled with the sea. This suspenseful account of life in early twentieth century Newfoundland is as stunningly lovely as it is devastatingly heartbreaking.
OF SEA AND SEED is a gripping family saga-an unforgettable must read.

Описание:
Virgil's Georgics depicts the world and its peoples in great detail, but this geographical interest has received little detailed scholarly attention. Hundreds of years later, readers in the British empire used the poem to reflect upon their travels in acts of imagination no less political than Virgil's own. Virgil's Map combines a comprehensive survey of the literary, economic, and political geography of the Georgics with a case study of its British imperial reception c. 1840-1930.
Part One charts the poem's geographical interests in relation to Roman power in and beyond the Mediterranean; shifting readers' attention away from Rome, it explores how the Georgics can draw attention to alternative, non-Roman histories. Part Two examines how British travellers quoted directly from the poem to describe peoples and places across the world, at times equating the colonial subjects of European empires to the 'happy farmers' of Virgil's poem, perceived to be unaware, and in need, of the blessings of colonial rule. Drawing attention to the depoliticization of the poem in scholarly discourse, and using newly discovered archival material, this interdisciplinary work seeks to re-politicize both the poem and its history in service of a decolonizing pedagogy. Its unique dual focus allows for an extended exploration, not just of geography and empire, but of Europe's long relationship with the wider world.
