  From the Atelier Tovar -...

  Guy Maddin

  One of the Village Voice's Top 25 Books of 2003.
     
  Guy Maddin is one of Canada's most celebrated and original filmmakers, the director of such delirious films as Tales from the Gimli Hospital, Careful, Dracula: Pages from a Virgin's Diary and the forthcoming The Saddest Music in the World. Few know, however, that he is just as gifted a writer, and his resolutely purple prose, as eccentric and enchanting as his film work, is a true delight.
     
  From the Atelier Tovar gathers, in one volume, the best of Maddin's writing: his journalism (originally published in the Village Voice, Cinema Scope, Film Comment and points beyond), unpublished short stories and film treatments (including the riotous Child Without Qualities), and selections, both lurid and illuminating, from the filmmaker's personal journals. Here are Maddin's feverish musings on hockey, the Osmonds, divas of the Italian silent cinema, Bollywood, his own twisted biography, and much, much more. What emerges finally is both a fragrant potpourri and a treasure trove, a singular portrait of this very unique artist.

  Kakatiya Dynasty - Fortresses...

  Rolf Hedger

  The Kakatiya Dynasty emerged as a formidable power in the Deccan region of India, leaving behind a rich legacy of military strength, administrative brilliance, and cultural contributions. Their origins can be traced back to the 10th century, though historical records regarding their early rulers remain scarce. Initially, the Kakatiyas served as feudatories under the Rashtrakutas and later the Western Chalukyas, gradually expanding their influence over the Telugu-speaking region. 
  The name "Kakatiya" is believed to have originated from their association with the goddess Kakati, a form of Durga, who was worshipped as their family deity. The earliest known ruler, Venna or Beta I, established the dynasty’s foundation, but it was during the reign of Prola I that the Kakatiyas started asserting their independence. Prola II played a crucial role in strengthening their foothold by resisting Chalukyan dominance and expanding Kakatiya control over the eastern Deccan. 
  During this period, the Deccan was a contested space where multiple regional powers sought dominance. The Kakatiyas capitalized on the declining influence of the Western Chalukyas, strategically aligning themselves with or resisting various rulers to carve out an independent identity. Their stronghold was initially located in Hanamkonda, which later evolved into the grand city of Warangal, a center of Kakatiya power and cultural patronage.

  Sirius the Star of the Maltese...

  Sirius, the Star of the Maltese Temples invites the reader to look at the megalithic temples of Malta in an entirely new way. The discovery of the temples’ orientation to Sirius explains with mathematical precision the slight shift in the direction of their axes, caused by the movement of the stars called the Precession of the Equinoxes. The resultant astronomical dating of the temples to the Mesolithic, the period immediately after the last Ice Age, is far older than mainstream archaeology maintains and is on a par with other megalithic sites elsewhere, including Göbekli Tepe in Turkey. These findings turn on its head our conception of the accomplishments of ancient people. Instead of being just primitive cave-dwellers, they were primeval astronomers, whose interest in the sky has left us a legacy we never dreamt existed. 
  From the Foreword by Giovanni Bonello: “This is a disturbing book. The author defines its contents as controversial and its conclusions as surprising. I judge it to be far, but far, more than that. It is disruptive of accepted wisdom and unsettles all we believe we knew of the origin of man in Malta, of the sequences of early civilization and the histories of prehistory – not in Malta alone, but throughout the whole of Europe. I started reading it in awe, at first with a deliberate effort at disbelief. By the time I was approaching the climax of the exposition, I ended as mesmerized as I was perplexed.” 
  (Giovanni Bonello is a human rights lawyer and judge who served at the European Court of Human Rights for 12 years)
