Beschreibung

Alhambra Facts explores the captivating history and stunning architecture of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain, revealing its significance as a symbol of cultural exchange and artistic brilliance. Delving into Moorish Spain, the book illustrates how the Alhambra embodies the complex interplay between Islamic and Christian cultures during the Reconquista. 

 
The book uniquely highlights the Nasrid dynasty's influence and architectural design, showcasing intricate geometric patterns, calligraphic inscriptions, and innovative water features that reflect both artistic preferences and theological beliefs. 

 
The book progresses chronologically, beginning with the historical context of Granada and the arrival of the Moors. It then moves through the construction phases under the Nasrid dynasty, detailed analyses of architectural elements, the palace's transformation after the Christian Reconquest, and finally, the Alhambra's enduring legacy on architectural movements and Spanish national identity. It uses a multidisciplinary approach, drawing upon historical chronicles, architectural surveys, and archaeological findings to offer a detailed, evidence-based analysis, appealing to those seeking a deeper appreciation of the palace's historical and architectural significance.

    The L where a tabletop meets the legs, the T between double doors, the D of an armchair's oval backrest—all around us is an alphabet in things. But how did these shapes make it onto the page, never mind form complex structures such as this sentence? In The Greatest Invention, Silvia Ferrara takes a profound look at how—and how many times—human beings have managed to produce the miracle of written language, traveling back and forth in time and all across the globe to Mesopotamia, Crete, China, Egypt, Central America, Easter Island, and beyond. 
     
     
     
    With Ferrara as our guide, we examine the enigmas of undeciphered scripts, including famous cases like the Phaistos Disk and the Voynich Manuscript; we touch the knotted, colored strings of the Inca quipu; we study the turtle shells and ox scapulae that bear the earliest Chinese inscriptions; we watch in awe as Sequoyah single-handedly invents a script for the Cherokee language; and we venture to the cutting edge of decipherment, in which high-powered laser scanners bring tears to an engineer's eye. 
     
     
     
    A code-cracking tour around the globe, The Greatest Invention chronicles a previously uncharted journey, one filled with past flashes of brilliance, present-day scientific research, and a faint, fleeting glimpse of writing's future.

    The First Book of Kings is the eleventh book: The Book of Kings is a book in the Hebrew Bible, found as two books (1-2 Kings) in the Christian Old Testament. It concludes the Deuteronomistic history, a history of Israel also including the books of Joshua and Judges and the Books of Samuel. Biblical commentators believe the Books of Kings were written to provide a theological explanation for the destruction of the Kingdom of Judah by Babylon in c. 586 BCE and to provide a foundation for a return from Babylonian exile. The two books of Kings present a history of ancient Israel and Judah, from the death of King David to the release of Jehoiachin from imprisonment in Babylon-a period of some 400 years (c._960 - c._560 BCE). Scholars tend to treat the books as consisting of a first edition from the late 7th century BCE and of a second and final edition from the mid-6th century BCE.
