Sinossi

Temple Architecture explores the profound connection between religious buildings and the spiritual experiences they foster. Delving into diverse architectural styles across faiths, the book uncovers how specific designs communicate religious beliefs and values. Temples, beyond being mere structures, serve as communal spaces, fostering spiritual connections and collective identity.

 
Did you know that architectural choices, like layout and ornamentation, contribute to the overall sacred atmosphere? Or that understanding the historical context of religious architecture is vital for appreciating its nuances? 

 
This book takes a systematic approach to understanding temple architecture, blending architecture, religious studies, and cultural history. It moves beyond aesthetics to reveal deeper meanings within sacred spaces. The analysis incorporates historical records, architectural plans, and on-site observations, enhanced by visual aids.

 
The book progresses through three parts: introducing core concepts and styles, analyzing designs from different periods and religions, and examining the practical implications for architects.

 
This exploration demonstrates how temple design is not just functional but actively shapes religious experiences, reinforcing the bond between worshippers and the divine.

The Point!

Nasser Hussain

Missing everything but the point: visual poetry celebrating excitement! 
The exclamation point is much maligned. It’s bad style. It’s like laughing at your own joke. It screams, it yells, it’s hysterical, it’s maybe even embarrassingly obsequious. 
Nasser Hussain disagrees! What’s so bad about expressing enthusiasm? What if you really need to scream? The prescriptions of ‘style’ can feel like an artificial limit placed on our language, insisting we produce a bland monotone that trades on its appearance as rational, subdued, civilized discourse. Against this, The Point!, where poetry bangs its head against this veneer of rationality. Poetry, it insists, is exciting! Is, maybe, excitement itself! 
The Point! is composed using only exclamation marks, seeking to reclaim the dignity of the bang’s and explore its expressive possibilities. Against the well-known derision of F. Scott Fitzgerald, Elmore Leonard, and Gertrude Stein, Hussain uses the exclamation point to make a point: let’s celebrate the possibility of enthusiasm!

Mystics of the Empire - Magic...

Davis Truman

In Mystics of the Empire, this groundbreaking study delves into the often-overlooked relationship between Roman emperors and magic, offering a fresh perspective on how sorcery and power intersected in the ancient world. While the lives and reigns of emperors have long captivated scholars, the fascinating role of magic in their rule remains a largely unexplored area of historical inquiry. This book examines how emperors were depicted as patrons of magical practices and as victims and persecutors of sorcery, revealing the complex political, social, and religious ramifications of magic in the Roman Empire. 
From the mystical associations of the early emperors to the later, more controversial reigns of figures like Elagabalus, Mystics of the Empire analyzes the twofold nature of magic’s role — whether it was used as a tool for imperial authority or as a threat to Roman stability. The book explores how emperors employed magicians for their own purposes and how their engagement with magic could be a source of political intrigue and downfall. Drawing on ancient sources and case studies, the narrative illuminates how these magical associations shaped the representation of emperors while also addressing the motivations behind these portrayals. 
By offering a detailed examination of the magical context from the establishment of the Principate to the end of the Severan dynasty, Mystics of the Empire reveals the intricate interplay between the mystical and the political in ancient Rome. This work challenges traditional understandings of Roman governance, providing readers with a deeper appreciation of how magic was used as a tool of power, control, and subversion in one of history’s most enduring empires.
