Printed Images in Colonial Australia 1801-1901.
2007, xvii,294pp, Illustrated. Hardcover, with dust jacket. 2,3kg. In very good condition. Pakketzending.
"This book reveals some of the remarkable colonial works that form the cornerstones of the National Gallery of Australia’s collection of Australian prints. The earliest intaglio prints were produced in New South Wales by a free settler, John Lewin, whose exquisitely hand-colored etchings of moths and birds were published in 1805 and 1808–13. The first views of the colony to be printed locally were published in 1812–14 by an entrepreneurial emancipist and engraved by the convicts assigned to him. From a culture of “making do” in the early decades of the penal settlement, the extent, quality, and scope of print production increased exponentially and kept pace with developments overseas. The backgrounds of the printmakers whose work is discussed varied greatly, with professional trade workers and artists making equally important contributions. By the mid-nineteenth century, printmaking was firmly established in key areas of commercial enterprise, science, architecture, art, advertising, illustrated books, and newspapers. Through the second half of the century printmaking in Australia continued to match developments overseas. One particular high point for wood-engravers was the production of the lavish Picturesque Atlas of Australasia, published between 1886–88, to coincide with the centenary of European settlement. Printed Images in Colonial Australia concludes with the photogravure of Tom Roberts’s painting commissioned to celebrate the federation of the Australian states in 1901. The 377 images reproduced here, many of them exceedingly rare or long overlooked, are presented alongside Roger Butler’s original research and information not previously assembled to give full weight to the important role of the printed image in Australian art and culture."

German author Burkhard Spinnen revisits moments of bibliophilia mixed with anguish through a personal and historical journey of the books we encounter and the places we meet them. With anecdotes of serendipitously finding vintage copies of literary classics and bemoaning the loaned book you'll never get back, Spinnen reminds us that even if the eBook has made reading during a commute easier, it will never bring us as much pride as a well-stocked shelf. Or recover the smell of ink on paper, or the pleasure of good margins and letter-spaced capitals. For those wanting to keep their hard copies close and chat with friends about the joy books have brought into their lives, The Book offers up a kindred spirit.

The most lavish palaces, the bloodiest coups, the stupidest declarations. . . . Plus all the lists, charts, maps, and profiles that have made the Worst-Case Scenario Almanacs such a success. Which country had more governments in the past 175 years—Italy or Bolivia? What ever happened to all those people who ran for vice president of the United States of America—and lost? Illustrated, step-by-step scenarios describe how to respond when confronted with misfortune or challenge, including how to give a concession speech, kiss a drooling baby, escape a sex scandal, and evade the truth.

Stone Voices. The Search for Scotland. (HARDCOVER)
2003, 326pp. Hardcover, with dust jacket. In very good condition.
"Scotland has a new Parliament and it has North Sea oil, but is it yet an independent, self-sustaining democracy? Is it a true nation? In Stone Voices, Neal Ascherson launches what he calls an imaginative invasion of his native land, searching for the relationships, themes, and fantasies that make up ""Scotland."" Beginning with a breathtaking portrait of the country's landscape, and of the way humanity has indelibly marked even its rockiest contours, Ascherson takes us on a journey through Scotland's past, interweaving his historical accounts with a rollicking report on a back-country bus expedition he joined during the 1997 referendum campaign that led to Scotland's first modern Parliament. He asked voters then what kind of country they hoped for, what they feared, and what they expected—questions that animate his book as well. In his search for a nation, Acherson explores many themes the slow, hybrid formation of the Scottish people over centuries of successive immigrations; the way their most renowned intellectuals and writers came to hate the national church; the peculiar nature of their diaspora; the coexistence of their search for an ""authentic"" Scotland with the myths others create; and the Scots' proud sense of true independence. Stone Voices enlightens us about Scotland, about Europe, and about the conditions for freedom that we must all seek today."

In höchster Not entkommen Marceli Reich und seine Frau Teofila; sie tauchen unter und können ein neues Leben beginnen. Er arbeitet ab Oktober 1944 für den polnischen Geheimdienst in Kattowitz, Berlin, London, Warschau. 1958 verlässt er seine erste Heimat Polen in Richtung Bundesrepublik, wo ihm eine unvergleichliche Karriere als Literaturkritiker gelingt. Seither nennt er sich Marcel Reich-Ranicki. Mit ""Wolke und Weide"" ist dem Warschauer Journalisten Gerhard Gnauck ein einfühlsames Porträt geglückt Facettenreich skizziert er eine Jahrhundertgestalt und erzählt von Polen in der Mitte des vergangenen Jahrhunderts, einem Land, in dem sich die europäische Geschichte wie kaum an einem anderen Ort kristallisiert. Auf Anregung Gerhard Gnaucks hin erhielt die Familie Gawin, bei denen Marcel Reich-Ranicki und seine Frau untertauchen konnten, die Auszeichnung ""Gerechte unter den Völkern"" und eine Rente der Bundesrepublik."

"''Vanaf de stad Mandalay wachtte mij een reis de Middeleeuwen in. [...] Algauw waren er meer gaten te zien dan asfalt. Daarna ging de weg over in een zandgrindweg. Er was geen gemotoriseerd verkeer meer te bekennen. Wel af en toe een ossenkar. Dat ging niet vlug. Maar onder de omstandigheden was dit wel het meest betrouwbare vervoersmiddel dat je krijgen kon''. (Birma 1983) Deze passage neemt U mee naar een leven dat zich grotendeels afspeelde in een keur van ontwikkelingslanden rond de wereld in een tijdsbestek dat zich uitstrekte van 1941 tot begin deze eeuw. In de Wolken bevat de observaties en ervaringen van een globetrotter, die zich vanwege zijn geboorte in Iran aangetrokken voelde tot reizen rond de wereld. Het boek laat zien hoe onze wereld veranderd is in een tijdspanne van zo'n zestig jaar. De waarnemingen van de schrijver zijn vaak humoristisch, ironisch en enige zelfspot wordt niet uit de weg gegaan. Een aanrader voor iedereen met een voorliefde voor verre reizen en andere culturen."

Monumenten zijn een soort van collectieve grafsteen, vooral als er namen van slachtoffers op zijn aangebracht. Door de oorlogsmonumenten te inventariseren wordt er een bijdrage geleverd aan het zichtbaar maken van de ramp die onze joodse medeburgers tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog heeft getroffen. De holocaust heeft in Nederland een grote leegte achtergelaten.

Joodse kinderen overleefden de oorlog Vele tientallen joodse kinderen overleefden de Tweede Wereldoorlog als onderduikertjes in de Friese Zuidwesthoek. Ze vonden onderdak in boerderijen, grote huizen en kleine arbeiderswoningen, bij alle soorten mensen. Bij de overwegend blondharige en blauwogige Friezen werden bij voorkeur blonde Joodse kinderen geplaatst, in code aangeduid als ‘theesurrogaat’. De donkere ‘koffiesurrogaat’ ging zoveel mogelijk naar het Zuiden des lands. Omdat die in de meerderheid waren, kwamen ze ook wel in het Noorden terecht, dan bleekte men eerst hun haren. De indrukken die ze als kinderen met een nieuwe identiteit opdeden, bleken onuitwisbaar. Hartverscheurend was soms het afscheid toen ze na de oorlog weer van hun pleegouders werden gescheiden. De schrijfster heeft een aantal van hun verhalen opgetekend. Dit met warmte en zorg geschreven menselijk document werpt in menig opzicht een nieuw licht op het georganiseerde verzet tegen de jodenvervolging in de Tweede Wereldoorlog, en op de houding van vaak anoniem gebleven jodenhelpers. Zo geeft dit boek op boeiende wijze ‘vlees en bloed’ aan feiten en cijfers uit de zwartste jaren van onze geschiedenis.
