Sinopse

"Birth of Modern Sculpture" delves into the revolutionary period when artists redefined sculpture, breaking from classical traditions to embrace innovation. The book explores this transformation, highlighting how sculptors responded to societal shifts and technological advancements, leading to the birth of entirely new forms of artistic expression. Notably, the rise of steel production and welding provided unprecedented possibilities, and the decline of traditional patronage challenged established norms. The book examines the rejection of academic conventions, the embrace of new materials, and the exploration of abstraction. Beginning with 19th-century traditions, it progresses through the influence of early modern sculptors like Auguste Rodin and avant-garde movements such as Cubism and Futurism. Ultimately, the book analyzes the rise of constructivism and non-representational forms, revealing how sculptors moved beyond mere imitation. This exploration provides a comprehensive overview of a pivotal period in art history, offering new insights into the forces that shaped modern sculpture.

Why does your mind keep going back—even when you want to move forward? 
 
If you feel stuck in the past, replaying memories or overthinking what happened, this audiobook will help you understand why.
 
You’re not weak. And you’re not broken.
 
Your mind isn’t trying to hold you back—it’s trying to resolve something unfinished.
 
In this first book of the Stop Living in the Past series, you’ll uncover the deeper psychological patterns behind rumination, emotional attachment, and the feeling of being unable to let go. Instead of forcing yourself to “move on,” you’ll begin to understand what your mind is actually doing—and why.
 
Inside, you’ll discover:

 
Why you keep replaying past conversations and memories

 
The hidden emotional loops that keep you stuck in the past

 
The difference between reflection and overthinking

 
Why “just let it go” doesn’t work (and never has)

 
What your mind is trying to resolve beneath the surface


 
This is the understanding phase—the clarity that makes real change possible.
 
If you’ve ever felt trapped in your own thoughts, constantly pulled backward instead of moving forward, this audiobook will help you see your patterns clearly—and begin to loosen their grip.
 
This audiobook is part of a two-part series. Continue with Book 2 to learn how to apply these insights in real life.

Pomp and Circumstance - Why Britain's Traditions Matter - cover

Pomp and Circumstance - Why...

Chris Lewis, Penny Mordaunt

In this extraordinary new book, former Secretary of State Penny Mordaunt and co-author Chris Lewis build on the success of their Sunday Times-bestselling Greater: Britain After the Storm to celebrate the traditions and values that underpin British life.
Pomp & Circumstance explores Britain's traditions – both the ancient and the new. From coronations and national events to local customs, they provide stability, reinforce identity and foster resilience to help us steer a course through the uncertainties of tomorrow. Nations, organisations and communities that have them thrive. Where they are absent, it is harder to adapt to the fast-changing world.
At a time of great worry about our ability to adapt to an uncertain world, this book should give every Briton confidence and courage. It contains a unique perspective from someone who has had a ringside seat at many of our national events and crises over many years. Mordaunt, who in her ceremonial role as Lord President of the Council famously carried the Sword of State and presented the Jewelled Sword of Offering to King Charles III at his coronation, examines areas of traditional British culture – including the monarchy, Parliament, the law, sport and local traditions, as well as values such as sacrifice, courage and remembrance – to show how a country often thought of as old-fashioned actually uses its historical conventions to navigate the future.
Far from being a brake on progress, our traditions offer a predictable rhythm to life, promote values, encourage reflection and create a sense of continuity while allowing room for innovation and growth.
