Имате уникалната възможност да се срещнете с една наистина необичайна, зашеметяваща и завладяваща творба. Робърт Грейвс - вдъхновеният поет и неуморен търсач - ще ви поведе през лабиринта на средиземноморските (египетски, юдейски, елински и италийски) митове, за да ви покаже не само общите им корени с келтските сказания и германо-скандинавските саги, а оттам и с цялата западноевропейска литература, но и нещо далеч по-важно за него самия - начина, по който се е зародила истинската Поезия. Въпросните общи корени намират най-нагледно олицетворение в Бялата богиня на Раждането, Любовта и смъртта, чиито „ипостаси” съвпадат с ... |

Интересната криминална история се разиграва във време и място, които дават възможност да се разкрие пред читателите един изключително интересен свят: Войводина на прага на XX век с нейното пъстро многонационално население; съжителството и сблъсъка на постиженията на XX век с предразсъдъците и суеверията.

Криминалната история е измислена, но много от героите са действителни личности, живели и работили, респективно творили във Войводина. ... |

Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this piercing work distils three thousand years of the history of power into forty-eight well-explicated laws. As attention-grabbing in its design as it is in its content, this bold volume outlines the laws of power in their unvarnished essence, synthesizing the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun-tzu, Carl von Clausewitz, and other great thinkers. Some laws require prudence: Law 1: Never Outshine the Master, some stealth. Law 3: Conceal Your Intentions, and some the total absence of mercy. Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally, but like it or not, all have applications in real- ... |
