Very minor shelfwear to book and DJ.; Decadence investigates the perception of Pompeii as a site of impending and well-deserved doom due to the excesses of the ancient Romans, such as paganism, licentiousness, greed, gluttony, and violence. The catastrophic demise of the Vesuvian sites has become inexorably linked with the understanding of antiquity, turning Pompeii into a fundamental allegory for Apocalypse, to which all subsequent disasters (natural or man-made) are related, from the San Francisco earthquake of 1906 to Hiroshima, Nagasaki, 9/11, and Hurricane Katrina. Resurrection examines how Pompeii and the Vesuvian cities have been reincarnated in modern guise through both scientific archaeology and fantasy, as each successive cultural reality superimposed its values and ideas on the distant past.; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 256 pages; Oversized. …

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - On October 7, 2023, Israel was ambushed by the Palestinian terrorist organization, Hamas. The attack, underwritten by the Islamic Republic of Iran, unleashed unspeakable terrors on the Israeli population. Most of the world reacted with horror to Hamas's actions. But many commentators labeled the Jewish people, and Israel as a nation, as oppressors. The Palestinians, according to their Marxist calculus, were the oppressed.A legion of figures in academia, the media, and the United States then declared support for Palestine, the perpetrator of the atrocities. Many American institutions have been indoctrinated and transformed into puppets who propagate the hateful antisemitism that has returned to the West.Why does Israel exist Why is it worthy of remaining a critical ally of the United States Why have critical race theorists identified Israel and the US as the most pernicious examples of 'settler colonialism' Answers to these questions were developing during the first term of President Trump. But they were promptly abandoned by the Biden-Harris Administration, imperiling both Israel and the United States. In The Battle for the Jewish State, Victoria Coates shows how the current conflict in Israel is not a regional issue to be resolved through an interminable diplomatic peace process. Rather, it is a broader military and cultural war that must be won for the sake not only of Israel, but also of the United States.…

Zustand: Sehr gut. 264 Seiten, zahlr. Abb. Very good, almost perfect copy. - / The Last Days of Pompeii: Decadence, Apocalypse, Resurrection explores the modern reception of Pompeii and the other ancient sites destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Rather than windows to the daily lives of ancient Romans, these sites have served as mirrors of a shifting present. Through cultural appropriation and projection, artists have made the ancient catastrophe their own expressing contemporary concerns in diverse media-from paintings, prints, and sculpture, to theatrical performances, photography, and film. This lavishly illustrated volume examines the legacy of Pompeii the modern imagination featuring the works of artists such as Piranesi, Fragonard. Kaufmann Chasseriau, and Alma-Tadema, as well as Duchamp, Dali, Rothko, Rauschenberg, and Warhol. / Contents: Foreword -- DAVID FRANKLIN TIMOTHY POTTS -- Acknowledgments Lenders to the Exhibition -- Decadence, Apocalypse, Resurrection -- JON L.
