Описание: The first biography of Alaric to appear in English tells the history of the fourth-and fifth-century Roman Empire through the life of the Goth who attacked it.
The Outsider's Edge reveals the one common denominator the world's richest self-made people share. Studying the lives of 17 world-famous billionaires, author and researcher Brent Taylor discovered that their one shared experience is that of the outsider. From Bill Gates to Richard Branson to Warren Buffett, being different from their peers, and proud of it, has served as prime motivation for many of the world's most spectacularly successful people. Turning the conventional wisdom about wealth on its head, The Outsider's Edge reveals the true value and importance of being different.
Brent Taylor (Australia) is a professional researcher who has worked for more than 20 years as a market researcher to government and corporations.

Описание:
"There is great tension that so many of us feel within our private, inner spaces. I am deeply worried by our tendency to repress our emotional struggles and then unleash them into the environment with our behaviour, affecting the lives of those around us. I have committed my childhood, my education and my study to what I care about most: the behaviours and the fallout that come from our tendency to want a better life for ourselves, to want a better world to live in, yet be unable to let go of our pain to make it possible.
For eleven years I lived and studied the phenomenon that is the construction of self-loathing. I have learnt that we humans are inordinately powerful. Everything we are filled with-in our heads and our hearts-drives our actions, and all that we do in the world helps to shape a world we all share. Your mind is strong, resourceful, astonishing and magnificent. It is, in part, who you are, and it does matter what you decide to do with it." Krista Fuller.
The Outsider's Inn calls us to break out of the socially constructed myth that we are not powerful enough to influence or impact upon our world. It is a mental health and suicide prevention early intervention effort that can build resilience, promote good mental health, create public awareness, provide information, encourage help-seeking, increase identification of people at risk and improve community strength and capacity around self-love and self-worth. This is a resource for young adults to explore deeply important and often taboo subjects. It is an insight of great value for parents into the psychology and structure of the mind, and of the societies these minds create. It is a resource for general practitioners and counsellors to better understand and help their patients in emotional and psychological pain.
"Krista is a brave and insightful writer who draws on her own personal story that makes her book a powerful resource for her reader. I believe her heartfelt words will help many individuals, couples, families and those working in the field of emotional health and wellbeing look at these complex life issues from a refreshingly new perspective. Congratulations Krista, your book is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the wonderful resilience of the human spirit, even in the most seemingly dire of consequences." - Cynthia Morton, Author, Australian of the Year, Prime Minister's Award for Excellence, Pride of Australia Medal

Inside Priory awaits a lot more than meets the eye.
The people might seem friendly, but only because their enigmatic leader Charles Erich accepts nothing less. The cottages within this gated community seem simple enough, and even though what lurks beneath them is more ancient than mankind itself, can anything be more evil than the people worshipping it?
If you dare follow this UK invasion of five prime authors as they each tell their own story of the people living behind Priory's steel gates and high walls, you'll quickly find yourself an outsider, as well. Stories by Stephen Bacon, James Everington, Gary Fry, V.H. Leslie, and Rosanne Rabinowitz.
The Priory. A community of one mind and purpose. A place of order, commitment, peace, and service. A perfect world, building on mind shattering secrets from beyond the pale. Enter...if you dare.
"The Outsiders is an anthology of themed short stories that are centered on the Priory. Priory is a gated community that seems to be an idyllic neighborhood for the rich and pampered but there is much more to the community than meets the eye. Under the leadership of the enigmatic Charles Erich, the community is a conglomeration of simple cottages that speak to a people seeking to live a simple life outside of the complicated world. Underneath the community, however, lurks an ancient monster pulled straight from legend and who is pure evil. The only thing worse than the monster are the people who have dedicated their lives to worshiping it. Welcome to Priory. Only a select few can join the community but no one can get out alive." - Examiner.com

Описание: Giants are a ubiquitous feature of medieval romance. As remnants of a British prehistory prior to the civilization established, according to the Historium regum Britannie, by Brutus and his Trojan followers, giants are permanently at odds with the chivalric culture of the romance world. Whether they are portrayed as brute savages or as tyrannical pagan lords, giants serve as a limit against which the chivalric hero can measure himself. In Outsiders: The Humanity and Inhumanity of Giants in Medieval French Prose Romance, Sylvia Huot argues that the presence of giants allows for fantasies of ethnic and cultural conflict and conquest, and for the presentation--and suppression--of alternative narrative and historical trajectories that might have made Arthurian Britain a very different place. Focusing on medieval French prose romance and drawing on aspects of postcolonial theory, Huot examines the role of giants in constructions of race, class, gender, and human subjectivity. She selects for study the well-known prose Lancelot and the prose Tristan, as well as the lesser known Perceforest, Le Conte du papegau, Guiron le Courtois, and Des Grantz Geants. By asking to what extent views of giants in Arthurian romance respond to questions that concern twenty-first-century readers, Huot demonstrates the usefulness of current theoretical concepts and the issues they raise for rethinking medieval literature from a modern perspective. "In her beautifully written Outsiders: The Humanity and Inhumanity of Giants in Medieval French Prose Romance, Sylvia Huot organizes a wealth of material into a taxonomy of giants and their complex role in medieval French literature. Huot imaginatively uses that mapping to demonstrate the many ways in which the figure of the giant is a cultural fantasy through which medieval writers imagined the limits of personhood. Tracing that fantasy through medieval concepts of race and ethnicity, Huot makes an original and important claim not just about what giants do for medieval writers or their audiences, but also about the vulnerable boundaries of the human that are both put into question and reaffirmed by representations of giant outsiders." --Peggy McCracken, University of Michigan
