Synopsis

Persian Arts explores the significant artistic contributions of Persia and their lasting influence on Middle Eastern culture. The book focuses on Persian literature, calligraphy, and architecture, revealing how these art forms fostered a shared cultural identity and facilitated intellectual exchange. For instance, Persian literature, with its epic poetry and mystical verse, shaped regional storytelling traditions. Similarly, Persian calligraphy became a revered art form, disseminating knowledge and culture through manuscript illumination and architectural decoration. The book contextualizes these artistic achievements within Iranian history, from the Achaemenid Empire onward, detailing the social, political, and religious factors that shaped artistic production. Persian Arts argues that Persian artistic endeavors were powerful tools for cultural cohesion. Persian architecture, known for its arches, domes, and intricate tilework, significantly impacted mosque design and public spaces across the Middle East. The book progresses by first introducing core concepts, then exploring literature, calligraphy, and architecture in separate sections, culminating in an analysis of how these elements shaped Middle Eastern culture.

Forest is a celebration of the diverse ways in which trees and forests are as magnificent, economically relevant and profoundly enchanting today as they ever have been.
Journeying across the continents, writer Matt Collins and photographer Roo Lewis tie together both the historical context and modern-day applications of some of the world's most fascinating and iconic trees. They explore the heritage of woodlands from around the world and meet those whose lives are inexplicably bound to them.

Each chapter provides the reader with a short introduction to the tree, followed by a journalistic account of its relevance to modern day-life (from gin making on Isle of Islay to a truffle farm in Spain), and concludes with an account of the tree in its native forest (from hornbeams in the Ironwoods of Ontario to firs on Vancouver Island).
Captured on medium-format film, Roo’s stunning, rich colour images are the perfect companion to Matt’s engaging storytelling and botanical knowledge. Forest crafts a captivating interpretation of the story of the forest through the trees.

Supraconscious - The Genius...

Maria Olon Tsaroucha

This book is the core textbook of a quantum science of acting on stage and in life. At a time when the arts and sciences converge more than ever, Perceptual Acting and Directing theory and method (PAD) speaks about a contemporary, tangible metaphysics, fusing theories of quantum physics with mindfulness and the famous Method of the Actors' Studio, in a new harmony. Konstantin Stanislavski had said that the actor of the future, a new actor in the new life, is the one for whom art springs from spiritual intuition. He used the word Supraconscious, indicating to the actor the levels of consciousness he needed to attain. He considered the art of theater as the spiritual path to wholeness. PAD is the new system of translating and decoding, frame by frame, the experience, bringing us in touch with the higher self, by reference to Nietzsche's superhuman and the transcendental Kazantzakis, creating a new transitional space where everything is in motion and evolves in the face of inertia, continuously actualizing that Alma-Quantum Leap of being.
