Sinopsis

Peter Lord, considered to be the greatest living scholar on Welsh visual art and culture, surveys the evolution of the visual culture of Wales from the Renaissance to the end of the twentieth century in this new, single-volume history. Written for everyone with an interest in the art and history of Wales, the volume illustrates some 400 landscapes and portrait paintings, prints and sculptures from artists such as Augustus John, Ceri Richards, Christopher Williams and many more. The author describes both how the work emerged from its Welsh historical context and was related to the art of other cultures. Revealing the many discoveries made since its first publication of the Visual Culture of Wales series in 1998, The Tradition is the only study now in print that encompasses the whole field of Welsh visual art. It is published with the support of the National Museum of Wales, The Paul Mellon Foundation, the National Library of Wales, the Marc Fitch Fund, Swansea University and the Welsh Book Council.
Includes new and expanded material not originally featured within Lord's Visual Culture of Wales series.

    The Global Vipassana Pagoda in Mumbai was built to mark the birth centenary year of Sayagyi U Ba Khin, the Burmese Dhamma teacher of S.N. Goenka. The monument is built in the Myanmar style of the Shwedagon pagoda, as a token of gratitude to that country where the essence of the Buddha’s teachings was maintained in its pristine purity, and from where it is now spreading throughout India, and via India to the rest of the world. Mr. S.N. Goenka became the vehicle to make this happen and was the inspiring guide for every important aspect of this building project. Tremendous volition and effort went into the building of this staggering monument, and it is interesting and educative to explore the journey. Mr. Bikram Dandiya has beautifully chronicled some of these experiences in this booklet, The Jewel in Mumbai, the story of the making of the crystal bud atop the Global Vipassana Pagoda.

    ABOUT THE FILM 
    Saving Private Ryan is a 1998 war film directed by Steven Spielberg, set during World War II. The story follows Captain John Miller and a small group of U.S. Army Rangers as they are tasked with finding and bringing home Private James Ryan, whose three brothers have been killed in action. The film is renowned for its realistic portrayal of the brutalities of war, particularly in its graphic depiction of the D-Day invasion of Normandy. It explores themes of sacrifice, camaraderie, and the emotional toll of war, focusing on the personal stories of soldiers amidst the chaos of battle. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    “In 2006, Tom Hanks was inducted into the U.S. Army's Ranger Hall of Fame as an honorary member, largely due to his portrayal of Captain John Miller.” 
      
    “Steven Spielberg stated that even if the film had been given an NC-17 rating, he would have released it uncut.” 
      
    “Cinemas were instructed to increase the volume when showing the film, as the sound effects played a crucial role in the overall impact.” 
      
    “In the German-dubbed version, a German veteran of the Normandy invasion had to be replaced because the film's emotional realism was too intense for him.” 
      
    “Saving Private Ryan was the last film edited using a non-digital editing system to win an Academy Award for editing.”
