Summary

Vine Pruning Work explores the time-honored traditions of grapevine cultivation, focusing on the intricate art of vine pruning and the crucial role of family labor in vineyards. It argues that these practices, often more attuned to the land's needs than industrial approaches, are vital for maintaining biodiversity and cultural heritage. The book reveals how traditional pruning methods, fine-tuned over generations, directly impact the vine's health, productivity, and longevity, while family-based operations form the backbone of many vineyards, especially where tradition remains strong.

 
The book examines the evolution of pruning techniques across different eras and regions, while exploring the social dynamics within families dedicated to vineyard work. Structured in three parts, it first introduces the principles of grapevine pruning, then examines the role of family labor through case studies, and finally analyzes the sustainability of traditional viticulture.

 
By blending horticultural knowledge with social and historical analysis, Vine Pruning Work offers a unique perspective, treating pruning as a cultural practice deeply embedded in family traditions and local ecosystems, making it valuable for viticulture students, wine enthusiasts, and anyone interested in sustainable agriculture.

    Named one of the most anticipated books of 2024 by the BBC, the Observer, Irish Times, the Guardian, and The Millions. 
 
 
 
In 2020, Olivia Laing began to restore an eighteenth century walled garden in Suffolk, an overgrown Eden of unusual plants. The work brought to light a crucial question for our age: Who gets to live in paradise, and how can we share it while there's still time? Moving between real and imagined gardens, from Milton's Paradise Lost to John Clare's enclosure elegies, from a wartime sanctuary in Italy to a grotesque aristocratic pleasure ground funded by slavery, Laing interrogates the sometimes shocking cost of making paradise on earth. 
 
 
 
But the story of the garden doesn't always enact larger patterns of privilege and exclusion. It's also a place of rebel outposts and communal dreams. From the improbable queer utopia conjured by Derek Jarman on the beach at Dungeness to the fertile vision of a common Eden propagated by William Morris, new modes of living can and have been attempted amidst the flower beds, experiments that could prove vital in the coming era of climate change. The result is a humming, glowing tapestry, a beautiful and exacting account of the abundant pleasures and possibilities of gardens: not as a place to hide from the world but as a site of encounter and discovery, bee-loud and pollen-laden.

    Don't just see the sights—get to know the people. 
Set in Africa, but not wholly African; an isolated nation, yet receptive to the outside world; hierarchical and conservative, yet innovative and desirous of modernity; conformist as a people, and fiercely independent as individuals? The Ethiopian identity defies definition. Ethiopia exists simultaneously in different time periods. Its people, when they see something new that might work to their advantage, will embrace it and find ways to improve on it. Modern democracy, however, has understandably been slower to bloom given the strong historical antecedents of its monarchy. 
Culture Smart! Ethiopia unpacks the values, attitudes, and traditions of this culturally rich nation. Etiquette in daily life, socializing, and communicating are all helpfully described, and advice is given on how to make the most of a visit. Above all, it provides the tools to do so in a considerate and sensitive manner. 
Have a richer and more meaningful experience abroad through a better understanding of the local culture. Chapters on history, values, attitudes, and traditions will help you to better understand your hosts, while tips on etiquette and communicating will help you to navigate unfamiliar situations and avoid faux pas.
