En momentos de sobre estimulación, exceso de información y consumismo, el minimalismo es una vía para la calma. No solo como corriente estética, sino además un estilo de vida que invita al desapego, el orden, a centrarse en lo importante, y a reducir al maximo lo innecesario. De la misma manera, las construcciones minimalistas inducen a dejar fuera el ruido de las ciudades y crear un espacio de meditacion, serenidad y calma. Asi, la tendencia estetica se vuelve menos dogmatica y abraza nuevas formas inspiradas por la naturaleza y el entorno.

In 250 glorious photographs "Wide Angle: National Geographic Greatest Places" documents the beauty and depth of every part of the world. Delving deeply into a picture archive that houses over ten million images, with many photographs being published for the first time, this new book-the third and final in the "greatest photographs" series-presents the world''s amazingly diverse places with epic grandeur, unparalleled intimacy, romantic beauty, and gritty realism. The photographs are landscapes, cityscapes, famous landmarks, and unfamiliar spots that reveal special qualities of geography or culture one might otherwise never see. Spanning more than eleven decades, the images in "Wide Angle" are divided into twelve chapters, each depicting a unique geography--including East and Southeast Asia, the Middle East, North Africa, and the Polar Regions. Each chapter is introduced by award-winning cultural writer and critic Ferdinand Protzman, whose essays accent the stunning photographs by renowned National Geographic photographers. Both essays and photographs carefully examine a region''s special qualities, creating unique character and its own special and unforgettable sense of place. In "Wide Angle," National Geographic photographers have recorded the world''s places close up, in sweeping breadth, in depth, and over time.

A GUARDIAN AND INDEPENDENT BEST MUSIC BOOK OF THE YEAR `At last an expert classicist gets to grips with Bob Dylan' Mary Beard `Thomas's elegant, charming book offers something for everyone - not just the super-fans' Independent When the Nobel Prize for Literature was awarded to Bob Dylan, the literary world was up in arms. How could the world's most prestigious book prize be awarded to a famously cantankerous singer-songwriter in his Seventies, who wouldn't even deign to make an acceptance speech? In Why Dylan Matters, Harvard Professor Richard F. Thomas answers that question with magisterial erudition. A world expert on Classical poetry, Thomas was initially ridiculed by his colleagues for teaching a course on Bob Dylan alongside his traditional seminars on Homer, Virgil and Ovid. Dylan's Nobel prize win brought him vindication. This witty, personal volume is a distillation of Thomas's famous course, and makes a compelling case for moving Dylan out of the rock n' roll Hall of Fame and into the pantheon of Classical poets. You'll never think about Bob Dylan in the same way again.
