  Medieval Japan - Samurai and...

  The rise of feudal Japan marked a significant turning point in the nation's political and social history. Beginning in the late 8th to early 9th centuries, the centralized power of the imperial court in Kyoto began to wane. As emperors became more ceremonial figures, real power shifted into the hands of powerful landowning families and military clans in the provinces. These regional lords, or daimyo, started to assert control over their own territories, gradually weakening the authority of the imperial government. 
  This period of decentralization gave birth to a new system where local warlords governed through a network of vassals and military retainers. In return for loyalty and service, these retainers were granted land or a share in the profits from agricultural production. This land-based reward system laid the foundation for the feudal structure that would define medieval Japan for centuries to come. Unlike in Europe, where feudalism was based on strict legal contracts, Japan’s version emphasized personal loyalty and honor, often backed by military strength. 
  The emergence of powerful clans such as the Minamoto and Taira further accelerated the move toward feudal governance. Their rivalry culminated in the Genpei War (1180–1185), a brutal conflict that ultimately led to the downfall of the Taira clan and the rise of the Minamoto. In 1192, Minamoto no Yoritomo was appointed Seii Taishogun, or Shogun, by the emperor, establishing the first shogunate in Kamakura. This event marked the formal beginning of military rule in Japan and the creation of a dual-government system, where the emperor remained as a symbolic figure while the shogun held actual power.

  Kingdom of Mapungubwe - The...

  The discovery of Mapungubwe in the early 20th century marked a turning point in the understanding of Southern Africa’s ancient civilizations. Hidden for centuries, this once-thriving kingdom remained unknown to the modern world until 1933, when a group of researchers stumbled upon its ruins on Mapungubwe Hill in present-day South Africa. What they uncovered would challenge colonial-era narratives and reshape the history of African state formation. 
  Archaeological excavations at the site revealed an advanced society that flourished between the 11th and 13th centuries. The remains of elaborate stone structures, pottery, and intricate gold artifacts painted a picture of a powerful kingdom with a sophisticated political and economic system. Among the most significant discoveries was the famous Golden Rhino, a small yet exquisitely crafted artifact that symbolized the wealth and status of Mapungubwe’s elite. Made from delicate sheets of gold carefully shaped around a wooden core, the rhino became an enduring emblem of the kingdom’s prosperity. 
  The site also yielded evidence of a complex social hierarchy. The ruling class resided atop Mapungubwe Hill, separated from the common people who lived in the surrounding lowlands. This physical division suggested a structured society where power was centralized, a departure from earlier African settlements where leadership was more communal. The arrangement of dwellings, burial sites, and ceremonial areas further confirmed that Mapungubwe had developed into a true kingdom with a distinct ruling elite.

  The speeches of film legend Sidney Poitier—given at commencement addresses, awards shows, memorials, and more, on topics ranging from entertainment history to filmmaking, civil rights, and parenthood—come to vibrant life in this inspirational and stunningly packaged volume from the Poitier estate that sheds new light on the trailblazing artist's life and culture of the past century. Sidney Poitier represented strength, good looks, and above all dignity at a time when Black representation on the screen was so often relegated to servile parts. He broke ground as the top box-office draw in Hollywood at the peak of his career, and was the first Black actor to win the Best Actor Oscar, for his performance in Lillies of the Field (1963). Poitier—who narrowly escaped illiteracy after rising up from an impoverished childhood and the massive obstacles he faced as a Black man in mid-twentieth century America—was also one of the most articulate and sought-after speakers of his day. This book is a one-of-a-kind collection showcasing the wise, witty, and deeply personal speeches Poitier gave at awards ceremonies, family events, memorials, and more. His salutes to artists such as Dorothy Dandridge, Spencer Tracy, Stanley Kramer, and Denzel Washington offer fresh insight on icons of our time. Poitier's unforgettable cadence and voice are clear as day on the page, sometimes with careful edits and additions written in his own hand. Compiled by his wife, Joanna Poitier, and illustrated by dozens of professional and family photos, this collection stunningly captures all that was remarkable about the man through his own words; archives moments in the history of entertainment, culture, and civil rights; and offers a uniquely inspirational perspective on career, family, art, and life.
