Soft cover. Zustand: New. Everyone knows the epic story of the Devi killing Mahishaasura. Mahishaa's fault was that he was not prepared to fit into a conformist box. So, this cannot be a classic Good vs Evil tale. In the middle of the city, there was a dilapidated Kaali temple. Its condition was so because both the devotees and the priests were alien to love, although this was supposed to be the primary concept in places of worship. It was at such a time that a devotee decided to return the temple to its traditional practices of worship. This is accomplished in a pact with Kaali by the devotee becoming Mahishaasuramardini's Mahishaa. What happens next is a marvellous cascade, flowing from the pen of poet Lakshmi Bayi.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. The key figures in this book are the author's uncle and grandmother. They are Sree Padmanabha Dasa Maharaja Sree Chithira Thirunal Rama Varma and his mother Maharani Setu Parvathi Bayi. However, this saga is not only about them or the royal family. It highlights how, as rulers, they looked upon the millions of people of their kingdom as their own family and how, in turn, the people showered respect and devotion on them. This work strives to encompass a decisive period of Travancore's significant history, its rulers and royalty of the period under survey. It includes the cyclonic changes that swept across India, particularly affecting its hundreds of monarchies and the ancient identities of many domains, with focus on fair Travancore. It covers a formidable canvas of time, starting even before the births of the two royal cousins, Maharanies Setu Lakshmi Bayi (who later became the Regent) and Setu Parvathi Bayi (who became the mother of a Maharaja), to the time Sree Chithira Thirunal moves on to the feet of Sree Padmanabha Swamy, his adored God and Master. The attempt has been made to bring in the times of trial he and his mother's branch of the family underwent during the years he was the Maharaja in minority. It also reflects the years of pre and post-monarchy rule and thereafter. The triumph and trauma in the private and public lives of these illustrious personalities, and their own bouquets and brickbats, all find a place here. Personal memoirs of many family members, who can be considered as 'living records', command the space of the second section of this volume. The effort has been to focus on at least part of what has remained an untold storyto no longer sanction silence, to liberate a part of history which has been misrepresented at times, to put the record straight to some extent possible and intentionally avoid some highly sensitive areas. This effort has translated in words as History Liberated, as parchment of an era. Interesting, informative, intriguing and explosive a saga in royal hues unfolds.…

Seldom are efforts made to interpret culture in the context of history and give it a fresh perspective.

Until he robs Busta, a major kingpin, thus dragging his midwestern family into his war.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - La crise du logement est une réalité au Cameroun. En effet, depuis quelques années, les autorités publiques ont entrepris un vaste programme de construction de logements sociaux dans certaines métropoles du pays, ainsi que la réhabilitation et la construction de nouvelles infrastructures urbaines. À cela, l'existence d'une politique nationale urbaine et des mécanismes juridiques et institutionnels relatifs justifient l'assise du droit de l'urbanisme au Cameroun. La méconnaissance et les violations récurrentes de la législation, en matière d'urbanisme et de construction, révèlent l'urgence d'un rappel à l'ordre sur les normes et règles régissant l'urbanisme. Le présent ouvrage apporte des réponses à caractère didactique dans le domaine de l'habitat social et du développement urbain.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - En Afrique Centrale, le processus d'intégration sous-régionale est régulièrement perçu sous le prisme économique au détriment des enjeux du développement durable et de la réception du droit international de l'environnement dans l'espace communautaire. En portant un regard particulier sur l'intégration environnementale en Afrique Centrale, l'objectif est de redynamiser non seulement le rôle majeur des organisations sous-régionales, mais surtout l'efficience des politiques environnementales intégratives en suggérant un élargissement de l'approche sectorielle en matière de protection de l'environnement, une réelle volonté politique des Chefs d'État et gouvernements sur la disponibilité des ressources financières et humaines, et l'harmonisation des politiques environnementales. Une telle vision contribuerait à la visibilité et à la réussite de l'intégration environnementale en Afrique Centrale.…
