After The Dance delves into the intriguing life of South African artist Le Roux Smith Le Roux (19141963), a brilliant yet obsessive outsider who was appointed Deputy Keeper of the Tate Gallery in 1950 at the age of thirty-six. Renowned for his sharp intelligence and methodical approach, Le Roux boldly questions the price paid by Director Sir John Rothenstein for the Degas sculpture, Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen. While Le Roux excels in his professional life, his personal relationships are chaotic. The biography unveils the complexities of a talented man whose life was tumultuous as it was remarkable. The narrative describes the Great Tate Affair (19521954), offering a fresh perspective that challenges the accepted narrative shaped by Rothensteins flawed account. Through meticulous research and compelling storytelling, this book invites readers to reconsider one of art historys most controversial episodes.

The story of the making of the New Testament is one in which scrolls bumped across cobbled Roman roads and pitched through rolling Mediterranean seas, finally finding their destinations in stuffy, dimly lit Christian house churches in Corinth or Colossae. There they were read aloud and reread, handled and copied, forwarded and collected, studied and treasured. And eventually they were brought together to make up our New Testament.This revised and expanded edition of The Making of the New Testament is a textbook introduction to the origin, collection, copying and canonizing of the New Testament documents. Like shrewd detectives reading subtle whispers of evidence, biblical scholars have studied the trail of clues and pieced together the story of these books. Arthur Patzia tells the story, answering our many questions: How were books and documents produced in the first century? What motivated the early Christians to commit teaching and narrative and vision to papyrus? How were the stories and sayings of Jesus circulated, handed down and shaped into Gospels? What do we know about ancient letter writing, secretaries and "copy shops"? Why were four Gospels included instead of just one? How were Pauls letters, sent here and there, gathered into a single collection? Who decided--and by what criteria--which documents would be included in the New Testament? Explore these questions and more about these Scriptures whose everyday, gritty story rings true to their extraordinary message: the palpable mystery of the Word made flesh.

Shiatsu is relatively young compared to other traditional healing systems: less than 100 years old, Shiatsu has developed rapidly and spread just as quickly. From a conglomerate of different roots, a trunk with many branches and even more blossoms has emerged in a short period of time.But what is the essence of Shiatsu? What principles is it based on? What is the role of Ki? What is the role of the meridians? How central is the hara? And what distinguishes a good practitioner? This book project is dedicated to searching for answers: leading global Shiatsu experts with decades of experience have their say. Their perspectives on fundamental questions about Shiatsu will contribute to a deeper understanding of the essential aspects of our art.

Writers and poets, academics and art critics, mathematicians and experimental scientists, churchmen and politicians, women of strong opinions gather for a summer weekend in the 1870s. Is it real, or is it a fantasy? One things sure: their debates about lifes aims, rural and urban living, love and money, civilization and belief, the social framework, the past, the present and the future take us to the heart of the Victorian dream and its reality: the idea that their society exemplified Progress. What did Progress mean? Were things (and which things) getting better? What did better mean? And for whom? The history of the world before the Victorians, from Aberdeen to Africa, showed a particular form of equality for almost everyone: an equality of poverty and no prospects, with kindness often in short supply. Victorians wanted to change that world, thought they were changing it, did change it. They did it in a human way: a melange of muddle, vision, certainty, doubt, too slow for many, too fast for some. Yet their changes were decisive both for creating the modern world, but also for revealing the dilemmas attached to mass living in urban, technological societies, as well as the moral flaws in imposing one civilizations or one persons beliefs on another. Most remarkably of all, the upheaval in making major transitions in every area of life, which produced revolutions and violence across Europe, in the Americas and in Asia, was carried out at least in Britain itself almost entirely peacefully. The past will always be a foreign country for those unwilling to engage with its people. Whether viewing the lives of rulers or the ruled, Being Victorian corrects innumerable preconceptions.

A parliamentary by-election happens when a seat in the House of Commons becomes vacant between general elections, whether because the sitting MP dies, resigns, goes bankrupt, is convicted of a crime or is subject to a recall petition. By-elections can often appear to break the mould of British politics, signify the seemingly terminal decline of a particular political party or indicate the end of a premiership. Some take on iconic status or attract celebrity candidates and are remembered several decades after they take place. Others quickly disappear into the depths of our memories. As these pages will testify, however, theres rarely a dull contest.In this latest anthology, Iain Dale picks the most consequential by-elections of the modern era and presents a series of thoroughly researched and absorbing essays by some of our finest political writers, including Sir Vernon Bogdanor, Sir John Curtice, Simon Heffer, Julia Langdon, Lord Lexden, Andrew Marr, Tim Shipman and many others.This remarkable book uncovers unique stories of political tragedy, triumph, success and failure, set against the backdrop of some of the most dramatic moments in British parliamentary history.

When Jaguars XJ range arrived in 1968, it quickly established itself not only as a world-beater but also as the central model in the Jaguar range. Riding high throughout the 1970s, it was nevertheless losing some of its appeal by the time Ford bought the Jaguar company at the end of the next decade. These last three generations of the classic Jaguar XJ saloons closed an era in which Jaguar had symbolised the British approach to luxury motoring. That it no longer reflected what many buyers wanted by the end was a sad reflection of the changing times, but cannot take away from the excellence and desirability of the cars themselves. Today increasingly prized by enthusiast owners, these XJs in so many ways show the marque at its peak, and this book highlights why that is so.

"What indeed has Athens to do with Jerusalem? What concord is there between the Academy and the church?" Tertullian, 3rd century Such skepticism about the place of philosophy in the life of Christians persists down through the ages. As a student, author Steve Wilkens had deep reservations about studying the works of "pagans" or even "questionable Christians." Now a teacher at a Christian university, Wilkens has developed a deep appreciation for teaching and studying philosophy. In fact, he believes that the life of faith can be enriched by good philosophical reflection. In this book Wilkens helps you begin the same journey.Using generous quotations from the original sources, Wilkens provides an introduction to the study of philosophy by exploring a single key issue from each of the following philosophers: Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Augustine, Aquinas, Descartes, Kierkegaard, Marx, Nietzsche and Sartre. The questions considered include Why ask why? Is a just society possible? Is God responsible for evil? Can you be certain of anything? Is morality all about power? Do you really want to be free? Wilkens encourages you not to be a mere spectator but to actively and critically engage the questions and ideas these philosophers raise. Here is a book for beginning students, thoughtful Christians or anyone who wants to explore lifes deepest questions.

En El irresistible esplendor de lo inútil, el poeta, narrador, ensayista, traductor, editor y videoasta José Manuel Recillas expone por primera vez en nuestra tradición literaria una extensa y sistematica reflexion en torno al elusivo y complejo asunto del genio, central en la tradicion filosofica de Occidente desde Platon hasta Croce y Lukacs. Toma como punto de partida el analisis de cuatro grandes figuras artisticas sobre las cuales el epiteto de genio es indiscutible y explora las implicaciones esteticas, eticas, artisticas, filosoficas, sociales, historicas, hermeneuticas, en un complejo discurso analitico que no evade las cuestiones mas polemicas, como la relacion del genio y los asesinos en serie, los simbolismos del genio en la cultura pop de nuestros dias y el valor historico de un concepto tan complejo y venerado en la tradicion intelectual y artistica de Occidente. El peso especifico y la influencia de la obra de Johann Sebastian Bach, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ludwig van Beethoven y Johannes Brahms son abordadas en este volumen como un ejemplo de lo que, para el autor de este libro y poeta y traductor, significa el Ser del genio, vinculado necesariamente con la obra que nos han legado los artistas elegidos para ejemplificar la argumentacion expuesta en estas paginas, las cuales, en su conjunto, se suman a las muchas ya escritas por el autor a su ya extensa produccion literaria y poetica en torno a la musica y su valor en nuestra sociedad actual, y confirman su indeclinable vocacion reflexiva vinculada a la tradicion intelectual de Occidente, asi como su caracter unico en nuestra propia tradicion artistica.
