Sinopse

A History of Art in Ancient Egypt (1&2) offers a comprehensive exploration into the wealth of artistic innovation and cultural expression found in ancient Egyptian civilization. Spanning two volumes, this anthology delves into architectural wonders, sculpture, painting, and decorative arts, showcasing the aesthetic splendor and symbolic nuance that define Egyptian contributions to art history. The included works not only detail the grandeur of monumental structures and intricate tomb decorations but also examine daily life artifacts, weaving a rich tapestry that highlights the unique artistic styles and themes that pervaded ancient Egyptian culture. Georges Perrot and Charles Chipiez bring together a cadre of scholarly insights that discuss the diverse influences and evolutions within Egyptian art. The collaboration aligns with movements of historical revivalism and scholarship that proliferated during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Their collective expertise shines through as they contextualize Egyptian artistry within broader historical narratives, drawing connections to contemporary understandings of art as both a historical and cultural phenomenon. Readers embarking on this scholarly journey are thus invited into a deep and nuanced study of ancient Egyptian art that encompasses multiple perspectives and stylistic approaches. This anthology stands as an indispensable resource, melding rich academic discourse with vivid artistic representations, making it essential for both students and enthusiasts keen on diving into the intricacies of Egyptian aesthetic practices. A History of Art in Ancient Egypt (1&2) is not just a collection but a dialogue, fostering profound insights into the ancient world and enriching present-day appreciation for its enduring artistic legacy.

    Irish Aran knitting is a living tradition with a worldwide reach. Arans communicate warmth, comfort and a sense of home, which people the world over continue to respond to, even though the connection to our rocky outcroppings in the Atlantic Ocean may be long forgotten. 
    Aran grew up in the harsh environment of the Aran Islands where everyday wear consisted of home-spun fabrics and knits. Today Aran survives as part of a rich craft heritage and as high and slow fashion on the catwalks of the world. 
    Vawn Corrigan explores the history, mythology and growth of this iconic design in this beautiful and informative hardback book.

    Stories I Love To Tell - that...

    Dick Foth can’t stop telling stories. He's been making sense of life through story since he first realized words could become sentences. Now, after eight decades, friends have finally convinced Foth to record the stories he loves to tell in the way he loves to tell them: to a live audience. Stories I Love to Tell became a reality one evening at the Capital Turnaround in Washington, D.C.—a setting for some of Foth’s greatest adventures. And now you are invited into the audience, to find reasons for hope, courage to face hard things, and stories that bring us back together. Our brains are wired for and by story. Memories live in stories; relationships flourish there; identity is shaped there. Values ripen, and belonging is found across generations—around campfires and dinner tables—when moments turn into stories.Why listen to someone else’s stories? If it’s true that every human being somehow reflects God—and Foth believes it is—then maybe stories are the mirrors between every family, tribe, and person on planet Earth. In other words, it’s our stories that give our relationships a chance.Foth especially loves childhood stories, “because when I tell a story from my childhood, it reveals who I am. It is the lens through which I see my world.” As you listen to Stories I Love to Tell, you will see your own world more clearly. You will find yourself thinking, dreaming, and even feeling like a child again. There will be greater heroes to follow, deeper joys to discover, and even more of yourself to see. Foth’s low, kind, and rumbling voice constantly reminds us of the people who care for us, cheer us on, and—almost without our knowing it—become the heroes of the stories we, too, will love to tell. Enjoy!

    TAXI DRIVER 
    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
      
    FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY MARTIN SCORSESE 
      
    CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
      
    ABOUT THE FILM 
    Taxi Driver (1976), directed by Martin Scorsese, follows Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro), a mentally troubled Vietnam War veteran who becomes a night-shift taxi driver in a decaying, crime-ridden New York City. Struggling with chronic insomnia and loneliness, Travis’s disillusionment with society grows as he witnesses the city's corruption and moral decay. Obsessed with saving a young prostitute, Iris (Jodie Foster), and seeking a sense of purpose, Travis begins to spiral into violent thoughts. The film explores themes of isolation, existentialism, and the psychological consequences of trauma, set against the gritty backdrop of 1970s urban America. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    “Steven Prince improvised the list of additional illegal things Easy Andy had for sale after Travis buys the guns.” 
      
    “Due to a garbage strike, much of the on-screen filth is real.” 
      
    “Paul Schrader originally envisioned the character of Travis with Jeff Bridges in mind.” 
      
    “Robert De Niro's on-and-off girlfriend in the 1970s, Diahnne Abbott, appears as the concession girl in the porno theater near the beginning of the film.” 
      
    “The girl who Martin Scorsese studied to prepare for the role of Iris (played by Jodie Foster) also appears in the film as Iris' friend on the street.”
