Beschreibung

Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840), a prominent German painter of the 19th century, was a vital figure in the Romantic movement. His artwork is characterised by its poetic and melancholic essence, displaying a profound sense of spirituality and transcendence. In his paintings, he masterfully blended external nature depictions with deep inner symbolism. His often desolate landscapes and grand architecture evoke a yearning for peace, solitude, and spiritual elevation. The skilful utilisation of light and shadow in his composition amplifies the emotional resonance of Friedrich's art, imbuing it with an almost mystical quality. The artistic legacy of Caspar David Friedrich continues to influence contemporary landscape painting. His unparalleled aptitude for capturing the infinite within the finite renders his work a timeless representation of humanity's quest for transcendence and spiritual connection. This biography delves into the life and creations of this remarkable artist, celebrating his invaluable contributions to the evolution of Romantic painting.

    Black men must understand that religion or their faith is instrumental in their lives, and it affects their decisions and encourages them in times of trouble. Although black men have made economic and educational improvements in the past, there are still problems that make black men today more depressed, stressed, and sad about their current conditions. The stereotypes that all black men are irresponsible, make babies, leave their families behind, and create impediments to success, love, and economic stability, are wrong. Black men have feelings, from the obdurate gang banger to the father who works two jobs to support his family, while the pressure of the world sits on their dreams like an anchor pulling them toward defeat. 
      However, black men are trying to change their lives, and what they do not need, is outside influences obstructing their desire to positively change. Yes, many black men are angry, and many black men are tired of negative and racist misinformation concerning them and their communities. This is the most beloved book on real black men's issues TRYING and DOING positive things to atone and avert from their past mistakes.

    Trump: Modern Shaman - An Unparalleled Analysis of America's Most Controversial Leader 
    Trump didn't just break America's political rules - he revealed them as illusions. This is an outsider's discovery of how an unlikely shaman transformed the world's most powerful nation. 
    Trump follows ancient patterns of leadership that modern politics has forgotten. Through raw charisma and intuitive genius, he tapped into psychological forces that reshaped America's soul. This analysis reveals why millions found his message irresistible—and why his critics still don't understand what hit them. 
    Written by a non-American observer free from Washington's tribal warfare, this work examines how the deeply flawed Trump could be the very hero America needs in its darkest hour. 
    Note: This book offers a clear-eyed view of both his strengths and limitations but is ultimately strangely pro-Trump.

    This beautifully illustrated overview of the wildlife of the British Isles showcases the diversity of our plant and animal life. 
    Wild Isles is a celebration of the wildlife found on a relatively modest collection of islands positioned at a latitude so northerly to be unattractive to many animals and plants. Despite these unpromising foundations, the islands of Britain and Ireland, together with more than 6,000 lesser islets that make up our archipelago, contain some of the most diverse, beautiful and wildlife-rich landscapes and seas on our planet. 
    This book will explore the fascinating relationships within and between species who make their home on our beautiful isles. 
    Each chapter focuses on a particular kind of wild space. Britain and Ireland are dominated by a wide variety of grasslands from lowland water meadows to upland moors, and we will see how these human-shaped, semi-natural landscapes thrum with insect, bird and mammal life. Life requires water to flourish, and streams and rivers carry freshwater through our landscape, creating unique ecosystems and interrelations within and beside these waters, which are revealed in a third section. While Britain and Ireland’s woodlands are comparatively thin on the ground compared with most of continental Europe, we will see some of the forests and trees that remain are unusually ancient and, great repositories of life. Finally, of course, we are surrounded by sea, and our position on the continental shelf before it plunges into the depths of the Atlantic Ocean gives rise to an often overlooked plenty of marine life. A glorious richness divided into five breathtaking sections. 
    In Wild Isles, the latest Sunday Times bestselling book by Patrick Barkham, the beauty and diversity of nature in the British Isles are brought to life. Through stunning photography and engaging narrative, Barkham explores the various habitats and the intricate ecology that defines them. 
    For fans of Martin Stevens (Sensory Ecology, Behaviour, and Evolution), Jonnie Hughes (Earthshot), Josh Young (Expedition Deep Ocean), Matt Kaplan (The Science of Monsters), and Nigel Henbest (Philip's Stargazing 2024 Month-by-Month Guide to the Night Sky Britain & Ireland).
