Fatima was among the first few to hear the explosions. The window panes shook with them. "One, two, three...," she started to count but the explosions kept on coming. Soon, she gave up. "What is it, Ismail? Is the sky falling on us?" she screamed, taking the weeping boy from his father's arms. "I think the war has arrived," said her husband calmly.

The Land Between Two Seas: Art on the Move in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea 1300-1700 focuses on the strong riverine ties that connect the seas of the Mediterranean system (from the Western Mediterranean through the Sea of Marmara, the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov) and their hinterland. Addressing the mediating role of the Balkans between East and West all the way to Poland and Lithuania, as well as this region’s contribution to the larger Mediterranean artistic and cultural melting pot, this innovative volume explores ideas, artworks and stories that moved through these territories linking the cultures of Central Asia with those of western Europe.

Italy is the top tourist destination in Europe. But while the pleasures of Tuscany, Milan, Venice, Florence, and Rome are well known and well documented, Puglia remains relatively undiscovered. Venturing in Italy collects 30 true stories that explore every aspect of this fascinating region. The book’s 19 writers, including Linda Watanabe McFerrin, Joanna Biggar, and Laurie King, find stories everywhere they look, greatly helped by Puglia's rich history: everything from Neolithic cave paintings to ancient Greek cities and temples, from houses built in caves to medieval castles and fortresses. Seen here, Puglia is vibrantly alive with unique local wines and cuisine, thermal spas in Santa Ceasaria, and mussel farming in Taranto. Maps and sketches show Puglia and the surrounding areas at their most enchanting.

Book Synopsis Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea by : Jules Verne
Download or read book Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea written by Jules Verne and published by . This book was released on 1887 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt:
18th October 1940, as dusk falls over the island of Rhodes in the Mediterranean Sea, four air crafts of the Italian Royal Air Force take to the sky. Loaded with one and a half tons of incendiary and explosive bombs, each, and their fuel tanks brimming with 1300 gallons of gasoline, the four Savoia Marcheti bombers head eastward on an unprecedented mission. 2400 miles away, people on a tiny island in the Arabian Gulf are preparing to offer their Maghrib (evening) prayers and end their daylong fasting during the holy month of Ramadan. The intended target of the aircrafts' deadly arsenal is blissfully unaware of the threat looming over its head. Ten hours later, the island is jolted out of its sleep by a series of explosions. "Unidentified aircrafts flying by.....unidentified aircrafts flying by..." the frantic calls of the sentinel, over the telephone at the American oil refinery, are lost in the thunder of bombs that keep raining incessantly from the sky. During that brief period, the world seems to come to an end for the residents. Italy's first major air raid in World War 2 had seen light of day. Before long, evidence of collaboration in the bombing from within the island becomes evident. With Italy already on the rampage in East Africa, having conquered British Somaliland and threatening Kenya and Sudan, Britain's Middle East Command in Cairo is worried of a sinister Italian move to take over Arabia. And not unduly so! From the British Protectorate of Aden and Bedouin strongholds in the deserts of Oman, evidence of Italian penetration into the subcontinent begins to pour in. General Archibald Wavell, the Commander-In-Chief of British Forces in the Middle East, plants his most efficient man under the circumstances to uncover the mysterious enemy collaborator on the island. As the war between the two covert agents intensifies, the scene shifts from Ethiopian Highlands to the deserts of Arabia and colonial India. Only a few realize, though, that the island is sitting on a ticking time-bomb. Beyond the Arabian Gulf, the island of Bahrain is a mystery. Most readers would have read about it because of its pearls and oil, but not much more. Having lived here for fifteen years, I have experienced the country, explored its momentous history, and known what had turned it into the epicenter of a conflict that rocked the tiny nation. Those lessons and knowledge have led to the birth of my book, "Land of Two Seas." Although a work of fiction, it has been woven around facts. Facts, that in all likelihood, you have never read about.

Drawing together philosophical, empirical and academic thinking, this book focuses on generating awareness of the relationship forged between self and surroundings. It details research undertaken at two coastal sites, the South Wall in Dublin city and the Maharees peninsula in Co. Kerry, Ireland. Sixty-two participants were engaged in photography and drawing to enable this exploration of spatial experience. The participants' photographs and drawings present how spatial sensibilities can be revealed by becoming more attentive to the immediacy of bodily knowledge: our more-than-cognitive experience. Their communications resonate with the philosophers and theorists considered, including Merleau-Ponty, Edward Casey, Gilles Deleuze, Dalibor Vesely, and contemporary cultural geographers. From exploring the experienced spatiality of the meeting of land and sea, this book begins to suggest an alternative politics of the coast.

'Travel to Skagen and find him. Give him my letter. Seek a better life, Marianne! Promise!' Bound by a vow made to her dying mother, Marianne sells her few belongings and leaves Grimsby. Her destination? Denmark, where she will search for her father, Lars Christensen-the golden-haired fisherman her mother fell in love with many years before. The journey will be long-and dangerous for a young girl travelling alone. As Marianne boards the fishing boat that will carry her across the North Sea, she wonders: will Denmark be the fairy-tale land she has dreamt of? Will she find happiness there? Will the father she has never met welcome the arrival of his illegitimate child? And why didn't he return for her mother, as he promised he would?
