Synopsis

In "The Dance: Historic Illustrations of Dancing from 3300 B.C. to 1911 A.D," an anonymous Antiquary presents an extensive exploration of dance through the ages, meticulously documenting its evolution across diverse cultures and historical epochs. This scholarly work is enriched with vividly detailed illustrations that not only depict dance forms but also contextualize them within their corresponding societal frameworks. The blend of historical analysis and artistic representation makes for an engaging narrative style that appeals to both specialists and lay readers alike, offering insights into the integral role that dance has played as a cultural expression throughout history. The anonymity of the author, an Antiquary, serves to heighten the work's intrigue, suggesting a passionate individual steeped in historical research and the performing arts. The depth of historical knowledge and appreciation for cultural nuances reflects a lifetime of dedication to uncovering the threads that bind humanity through movement. It is likely that their own experiences in dance or a fascination with its cultural significance motivated the compilation of such an extensive record. This illuminating volume is highly recommended for scholars, dance enthusiasts, and cultural historians eager to understand dance as both an art form and a vital social practice. "The Dance" serves as a rich tapestry that weaves together the past and present, providing readers with a deeper appreciation for the complexities and beauty of this universal language.

    The story of these beloved bricks and the people who built an empire with them.   From its inception in the early 1930s right up until today, the LEGO Group’s history is as colorful as the toys it makes. Few other playthings share the LEGO brand’s creative spirit, educational benefits, resilience, quality, and universal appeal. This history charts the birth of the LEGO Group from the workshop of a Danish carpenter and its steady growth as a small, family-run toy manufacturer to its current position as a market-leading, award-winning brand. The company’s growing catalogue of products—including the earliest wooden toys, plastic bricks, play themes and other building systems such as DUPLO, Technic, and MINDSTORMS—are chronicled in detail, alongside the manufacturing process, LEGOLAND parks, licensed toys, and computer games.   Learn all about how LEGO pulled itself out of an economic crisis and embraced technology to make building blocks relevant to twenty-first century children, and discover the vibrant fan community of kids and adults whose conventions, websites, and artwork keep the LEGO spirit alive. Building a History will have you reminiscing about old Classic Space sets, rummaging through the attic for forgotten minifigure friends, and playing with whatever LEGO bricks you can get your hands on (even if it means sharing with your kids).

    A textile artist's guide to creating exquisite, intimate and nostalgic work inspired by the home.
    Ali Ferguson's work takes inspiration from domestic life and the objects that surround and comfort us in our homes. Vintage fabric and hand-embroidered text are beautifully paired to create evocative pieces that are imbued with the magic of everyday existence. In this wonderful book Ali reveals the secrets of her work and shares her ingenious methods for finding inspiration at home to create stunning work that uses embroidery, quilting, collage and found objects.
    Chapter One explains how to create 'threads of thought' that stem from the tiniest details within the rooms of your home, resulting in extensive mind maps you can use to inspire your finished work. Chapter Two shows how to translate these ideas into stitch and select the perfect materials for the mood you want to convey in your work. The rest of the chapters take you through the different rooms in a typical home, from kitchen to bedroom, giving a wealth of ideas for finding inspiration from each of these spaces in your own household, accessing memories, stories and emotions to help you create intensely personal and meaningful textile art pieces.
    Beautifully illustrated with the author's own work and that of other leading textile artists who draw inspiration from home life, this book revels in cloth and the joy that it brings to every textile artist. It is the ideal book for any artist or embroiderer who wants to explore new sources of inspiration on their very doorstep.

    By " assembling" some of the most fascinating figures in world history, Meeting of Minds provided a groundbreaking opportunity for audiences to be exposed to ideas by way of a medium not normally known for its intellectual vigor. Portrayed by actors, panelists engage in stimulating round-table discussions that were conducted like any other talk show but featured prominent influencers from bygone generations— not just philosophers and politicians, but poets, playwrights, and presidents. From activists and artists to international leaders— both famous and infamous— these conversations are unfailingly witty, thought-provoking, and genuinely entertaining.
    An innovative series, Meeting of Minds remains one of the most delightful ways of gaining historical perspective ever devised, and these original soundtrack recordings capture the intellectual and spirited debates of the episodes hosted by Steve Allen. The panelists featured in this volume are American social reformer Frederick Douglass, formidable Chinese Empress Tz'u-his, Italian criminologist Cesare Bonesana-Beccaria, and French libertine Marquis de Sade.
