Beschreibung

The cooperative work between Hiroshige and Kunisada (1854 -1855) is probably the most romantic of all the Tokaido editions.
Both Hiroshige and Kunisada did their own individual versions with the same type of theme - a combination of landscape and often unrelated portraits based in legend and other motifs.
But they did not rise to the level of elegance of the "Two Brush" Tokaido. 
The figures and the landscape are very well balanced and the colors are fresh and joyful.
The "Two Brush" Tokaido is both a tour through the landscape of Japan and a cultural introduction.
The reason for the combination of landscape and theater was to circumvent censorship of the popular kabuki theater prints.

    Embedded within military intelligence and communications, wartime cryptography was a man’s world filled with engineers, mathematicians, statisticians, military tacticians, political scientists, and linguists. But women working top-secret desk jobs played an integral role. They helped shorten the length of the war, saving countless lives in the process. 
    Bringing to light the quiet heroism of female code breakers of WWII, learn about these exceptional women who saved lives and changed the tide of the greatest war in human history. 
    Even as they applied themselves to complicated counterintelligence work and labored daily alongside their male colleagues, they fought an uphill battle on many different fronts, inside and outside the office. 
    Their stories and accomplishments have remained firmly under the radar—often missing from official documentation, history books, public lore, and public awareness. 
    The British feat of breaking the German Enigma code at Bletchley Park has been celebrated in popular culture in various books and movies, but the stories of many women who worked to break codes in the complex world of cryptography remain relatively untold. 
    Learn the true stories of female code breakers whose top-secret work helped win World War II, including: 
    ●      Elizebeth Friedman, Joan Clarke, Violet MacKenzie and other great minds working for the Allied forces from the US, UK and Australia—all trailblazers in the field of cryptography 
    ●      a simple rundown on cryptography as a science, the history of its use, and what it took to break wartime codes 
    ●      the legacy of these exceptional women, and the impact of their work. 
    Despite the constant need to prove themselves, these brilliant women never thought of themselves as heroes.

    The unforgettable true story of a girl born in the Kovno Ghetto, and the dangerous risk her parents faced in defying the barbarous Nazi law prohibiting childbirth. 
    Elida Friedman was not supposed to have been born. In the Kovno Ghetto in Lithuania, Nazi law forbade Jewish women from giving birth. Yet despite the fear of death, Dr. Jonah Friedman and his wife Tzila, choose to bring a daughter into the world, a little girl they name Elida—meaning non-birth in Hebrew. 
    To increase their child’s chance of survival, the Friedmans smuggle the baby out of the ghetto and into the arms of a non-Jewish farm family when Elida is only three months old. It is the beginning of a life marked by constant upheaval. When the Nazis raze the entire Kovno Ghetto, Jonah and Tzila are among those killed. Their only child is left orphaned and alone, dependent on the kindness of strangers. 
    Despite her circumstances, Elida grows up, changing families, countries, continents, and even names, countless times. Surviving the war and the Holocaust that stole her parents, the young woman never gives up hope. In her lifelong pursuit to find love and belonging, she works to rebuild her identity and triumph over her terrible circumstances. 
    A moving, powerful chronicle of overcoming impossible odds, The Forbidden Daughter is the true story of one unforgettable woman and her will to survive.

    Unlike people with carefree previous lives, I packed away my past. There are some memories labeled 'Look at', and others 'Leave well alone' . . . 
     
     
     
    Emily Smith was held in a prison of fear for ten years. When she was four, her father left and a new man was brought into her life. He loved her, he kept telling her so, but the emotional and physical abuse she suffered at his hands were a daily nightmare. Until one day, after he crept into her bedroom, her life became unbearable. 
     
     
     
    Emily found she was different in another way as her autism became more noticeable and punishments for her 'abnormal' behavior more severe. Astonishingly, she managed to escape her home of hell, where she was abused right in front of her mother. Emily determinedly gained a university place and emerged triumphant with a new life and family in Ireland, desperate to treat her daughter, so similar to her, to a different life. 
     
     
     
    Heartbreakingly true, Silent Child is a testament to Emily's strength as she sheds light on rampant abuse still happening today. Powerful and shocking, sharing her story means she finally has a voice to say: enough. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.
