This is a book of enormous detail about the places Chekhov visited and lived in, which is vital for a good understanding of the character of this unusual and complex man.

After goldsmiths work, tapestries and embroideries were among the costliest art forms of the Middle Ages, due to their precious materials and the countless hours required to produce them. Whether hung on the wall or worn about the person, textiles provided a potent display of their owners’ wealth and status. Their vivid decoration also provided the perfect backdrop for courtly pageants, royal ceremonies, and liturgical festivals. Even the quickest glance at late medieval paintings shows just how forcefully textiles shaped the visual texture\nof the occasions they depict. Though always the works of specialist craftsmen, in the later Middle Ages textiles were often made following designs supplied by the leading painters and designers of their age. Yet only a tiny fraction of what was made has survived. The fragility of the fabrics, light damage and insects, together with alterations of use, have made this material extremely rare.\n \nThis catalogue includes thirty-six late medieval and Renaissance textiles, many published for the first time, that together span a period of almost two hundred years. They are organised by country, starting with otherwise unrecorded examples of ‘opus anglicanum’ made in English workshops between around 1400 and the eve of the Reformation. They are followed by textiles from France, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Spain. Different materials and classes of textile are grouped together within each of these regional divisions. For\ninstance, liturgical vestments and altar hangings sit side by side with sumptuous velvets and delicately embroidered tablecloths. Together, they encapsulate the incredible breadth of Europe’s flourishing textile industries during this period. Rosamund Garrett and Matthew Reeves have carefully recorded the physical structure, processes of manufacture, and condition of these remarkable and sometimes complex works, and have situated them within the wider contexts of their production and the cultural climate in which they were made.

«Di bovini, come di persone, ce ne sono di tutti i tipi.»\r\n\r\n«Un libro che cambia il modo con cui guardiamo il mondo.» - Alan Bennett\r\n\r\nAlla fattoria di Kite’s Nest, nel cuore della campagna inglese, le mucche – ma anche le pecore, i maiali, le galline – vivono in piena libertà: possono scegliere autonomamente come muoversi, dove pascolare, chi frequentare, come trascorrere il loro tempo. E, lasciate libere, esprimono tutta la loro particolarissima identità: Chippy Minton, per esempio, non riesce a dormire con le zampe sporche di fango, e tutti i giorni fa ritorno al fienile per pulirsi. A Cicciotta gli uomini stanno più simpatici delle donne. Il toro Jake invece ha un vizio: sembra sia diventato dipendente dai fumi di scarico di un vecchio Land Rover. Gemima, la mucca più fiera e indipendente, saluta tutti quasi irritata, scrollando la testa. In questo ironico racconto capace di scaldare i cuori, Rosamund Young ci accompagna con grazia tra i campi della tenuta di famiglia, e ci svela come le mucche amano, giocano e si legano fino a formare amicizie in grado di durare per sempre, mostrandoci il mondo e la vita degli animali da una prospettiva totalmente nuova, e riportandoci a contatto con una natura affettuosa e materna, in una fattoria che non potremo fare a meno di sognare come casa.

In November 1910, Count Lev Tolstoy died at a remote Russian railway station attended by the world's media. He was eighty-two years old and had lived a remarkable and long life during one of the most turbulent periods of Russian history. \n\nBorn into a privileged aristocratic family, he seemed set to join the ranks of degenerate Russian noblemen, but fighting in the Crimean war alongside rank and file soldiers opened his eyes to Russia's social problems and he threw himself into teaching the peasantry to read and write. After his marriage he wrote War and Peace and Anna Karenina, both regarded as two of the greatest novels in world literature.\n\nRosamund Bartlett's exceptional biography of this brilliant, maddening and contrary man draws on key Russian sources, including the many fascinating new materials which have been published about Tolstoy and his legacy since the collapse of the Soviet Union.

In her debut collection, Rosamund Taylor dares us across thresholds and invites us to glimpse the world as we've never seen it before. She boldly charts a journey of survival and transformation with poems on history reimagined, astronomy, sorcery, wild landscapes, talismanic creatures, and queer love. Taylor explores what it means to live in a female body that is not defined by lack, or want, or perpetual suffering, but is possessed by a real and defined sense of erotic autonomy. These poems burn from the inside out with possibility, and there is magic, mystery and reclamation at every turn. In Her Jaws is a landmark debut that extends and deepens the Irish tradition of writing the female perspective, while also breaking new ground.\n\nPraise for In Her Jaws:\n\"A book of astonishments whose poems gaze towards the night sky and all that stirs in the dark below, swooping the reader through mysteries of desire and discovery. Taylor's voice is by turns tender, sharp, luminous; her poems are wondrous.\" - Doireann Ni Ghriofa\n\"In these haunting, simmering metamorphoses, Rosamund Taylor's imagination is both intrepid and tender. Spanning the erotic and the traumatic, these poems root through the fibrous dark of our psyche. In Her Jaws is a breath-taking debut.\" - Sean Hewitt\n\"Taylor's poems possess a talismanic quality. With lyric sorcery, she conjures encounters with a chorus of wild creatures: spectres and lovers, selves and others. Beneath the seductive gleam of her poetry lies an invitation to glimpse the fabulous. In Her Jaws will hold you in thrall.\" - Nidhi Zak/Aria Eipe\n\"Rosamund Taylor's stunning debut reignites the lyric tradition with poems that movingly and daringly explore pain and despair, desire and belonging while evoking the more-than-human world anew. Her voice is ever original and ever beautiful.\" - Jane Clarke\n\"In Her Jaws is an extraordinary achievement with poems gem-like in their intensity, clarity and precision - but make no mistake, there is wildness here too ... This is a debut that leaves bite marks in the most erotic and intoxicating sense ... In Her Jaws is here, finally, and it was certainly worth the wait.\" - Victoria Kennefick\n\"Taylor's language, form and imagery exhibit a remarkable freshness, resulting in work that manages to create a space between the uncanny and the familiar. Her sexuality and her feminism are carried candidly and address universals through the specifics of queer love and the experiences of women through history. This is the Irish lyric tradition queered in the manifold and finest meanings of that word. Taylor's is a poetry I do not want to be without. We are all the richer for it.\" - Paul Maddern\n\"In Her Jaws is by turns delicate and fierce; holding the reader gently in its muzzle, where we thrill to the awareness of teeth against our carotid. Taylor inhabits the natural world like no other writer working today; shapeshifting, questioning, and enthralling us with her curiosity. \" -...

Negli angoli più tipici della vecchia Inghilterra, nei pacifici villaggi delle contee, nei cottage circondati da giardini dalle mille fioriture la vita scorre tranquilla, ma non per questo povera di storie da narrare. È in questi luoghi che Rosamunde Pilcher ambienta i racconti di \"Fiori nella pioggia\": storie brevi ma intense, come intensi sono i sentimenti che le attraversano. Amori giovanili, amori consolidati dal tempo, amori che, forse, nasceranno.

Questo libro raccoglie alcune delle più memorabili fotografie subacquee scattate negli ultimi decenni. Le storie dietro agli scatti sono affascinanti quanto le immagini stesse\r\n\r\nUna rassegna di immagini subacquee, tra le più spettacolari della prestigiosa competizione Wildlife Photographer of the Year: fotografie mozzafiato che rivelano i segreti della vita sott’acqua. Dettagli bizzarri, colori sorprendenti, forme sinuose e incredibili: queste, di un mondo che spesso immaginiamo oscuro e silenzioso, ma che nella realtà è variopinto e vivace, popolato da creature straordinarie. Ciascuno scatto si accompagna alle parole del fotografo, che ne racconta la storia, ne rivela l’ispirazione e spiega le tecniche che hanno permesso di catturare il movimento, la luce, l’essenza di un preciso istante.
