In October 2011 when he presented his passport at immigration in Germany, Kapoor was unceremoniously whisked away into Interpol custody.

We tend to think of sixteenth-century European artistic theory as separate from the artworks displayed in the non-European sections of museums. Alessandra Russo argues otherwise. Instead of considering the European experience of “New World” artifacts and materials through the lenses of “curiosity” and “exoticism,” Russo asks a different question: What impact have these works had on the way we currently think about—and theorize—the arts? Centering her study on a vast corpus of early modern textual and visual sources, Russo contends that the subtlety and inventiveness of the myriad of American, Asian, and African creations that were pillaged, exchanged, and often eventually destroyed in the context of Iberian colonization—including sculpture, painting, metalwork, mosaic, carving, architecture, and masonry—actually challenged and revolutionized sixteenth-century European definitions of what art is and what it means to be human. In this way, artifacts coming from outside Europe between 1400 and 1600 played a definitive role in what are considered distinctively European transformations: the redefinition of the frontier between the “mechanical” and the “liberal” arts and a new conception of the figure of the artist. Original and convincing, A New Antiquity is a pathbreaking study that disrupts existing conceptions of Renaissance art and early modern humanity. It will be required reading for art historians specializing in the Renaissance,scholars of Iberian and Latin American cultures and global studies, and anyone interested in anthropology and aesthetics.

They've both sworn off romance, but love is written in the stars. Naomi Insta-love isn't a thing. Even if fans of my podcast think differently. But I can't deny the insta-sparks with the cute boy Hunter on my family camping trip. My fans think I've got it all figured out, so maybe it's time to follow my own advice and listen to my heart. Hunter's scowly attitude almost makes me hit rewind, but our interfering siblings convince me to give him another chance. Just when he starts to open up, I get an offer that could change everything I had planned for the future-and ruin my shot at happily ever after. Hunter My friends say I have a one-track mind, but it's not what you're thinking. If I'm going to finish college in three years and be a book editor in New York, I don't have time for distractions-not even by girls as charming as Naomi. Despite my attempts, it's impossible to ignore this love interest who's fallen into my orbit. I finally have the opportunity to be the hero in my own story, but I have a secret that puts more than just my future at stake, and if I make the wrong decision, it could alter my plotline forever. Book two in the Campfire Series, Chasing the Stars, is filled with stolen kisses, tipping canoes, and stars so bright you can see into the next galaxy.

Read and apply this book and build a strong marriage. Real stories. Real couples. We see it allsuccess, heartbreak, evil, flaws, love. There is no shortage of good marriage books. Most are topical studies of marital issues and how to resolve them. They are great resources. This book goes right to the core of a biblical marriage. It is less of mans opinions and more on what God said about marriage. The Bible gives us short accounts of couples, but not a complete account of any one couple. It supplies us with rich stories and insights of how they lived and loved. We know these people. In many ways, their lives are our lives. They are real people who fell in love, raised a family, argued, and grew old together (well, some of them did). God pulls back the curtain, and we see these couples warts and all. There is no sugar-coating, no spin job. We see people and couples in their best behavior and worst behavior. However, this is helpful to us as we can learn from both the good and the bad, and even the downright evil. Enjoy this book. Apply the biblical truths. I pray that this book may be the catalyst to save or strengthen your marriage. May you enjoy a lifetime of love!
