In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: Very Good. Our Daily Bread charmingly weaves together the customs, rituals, anecdotes, legends and sayings that tell the story of bread, from Mesopotamia, through Egypt, to the Far East, ancient Greece, ancient Rome, and the New World. Matvejevic shows how bread is depicted in literature and art (with beautiful illustrations) and examines especially closely the role of bread in the major world religions, drawing from the Bible, Talmud and Quran, but also at various apocryphal texts. In his seventh and last chapter, his narrative moves to the personal, explaining what motivated him to write this book; the lean years of his childhood during World War II and his fathers detention in a German concentration camp. Warning about the pending threat of hunger in the developed world, the book fittingly ends with a quote from the Russian anarchist Pyotr Kropotkin: The question of bread must take precedence over all other questions. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: Very Good. To know a city is to become intimately intertwined with its nooks, crevices, secret passageways and dark places where its lifeblood flows - and what city has more of those than Venice? In The Other Venice, Predrag Matvejevic ventures past the infamous canals and cobblestone streets of the tourist's Venice to find the heart of the historic Italian city. A lyrical re-imagining of the City of Romance, The Other Venice utterly reconfigures the Venetian landscape, as Matvejevic follows both real and imaginary maps, contemporary and historical, to trace out the details of this sensuous city. He probes into what the ancient metropolis means to its people, the nation and global culture. But he also finds hints of life in the smallest and most mundane details - bridges, rust-flecked boats, wall sculptures, rivers and piazzas scattered throughout the city. Each has a little-known story and with Matvejevic as our guide, he reveals the stories behind them all. The book carries readers to a Venice that has escaped the eyes of writers, artists and photographers through the centuries, and Matvejevic by turns plays a historian, cartographer, anthropologist and philologist as he unravels elusive artifacts of time past. Arresting black-and-white photographs by Sarah Quill accompany the text, offering a silent testament to Matvejevics pilgrimage. A fascinating and beautifully written guide, The Other Venice reminds us that there is always another mystery to uncover in the city of water and stone. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Zustand: Muy bueno. : En 'L'altra Venècia', Predrag Matvejevi? nos invita a apreciar las sutiles tonalidades del óxido sobre el hierro, la madera y la piedra más humilde. Explora los antiguos planos anónimos de la ciudad, revelando la magnificencia de los crepúsculos y capturando la melodía de los pasos sobre los puentes. A través de detalles meticulosos, reconstruye la imagen completa de Venecia y las transformaciones que ha experimentado a lo largo del tiempo y la historia. Este libro ofrece una perspectiva única de una ciudad de la que ya se ha cantado cada rincón, invitándonos a deslizarnos por sus grietas como las brisas de hierba entre los ladrillos.Esta edición incluye un prólogo de Raffaele La Capria, una conversación entre Giacomo Scotti, traductor italiano del libro, y el autor, así como una nota del traductor al catalán, Pau Sanchis, que detalla las vicisitudes del texto. Además, se recupera la mejor calidad de las imágenes escaneadas en el Museo Correr de Venecia: planos, xilografías, estándares y cuadros.

Zustand: Nuevo. «Nació entre cenizas, sobre piedra. El pan es más antiguo que la escritura. Sus primeros nombres están grabados en tablillas de arcilla en lenguas extintas. Parte de su pasado ha quedado entre ruinas. Su historia está repartida entre países y pueblos». Predrag Matvejevi? nos propone recorrer un camino que aúna poesía, filosofía, historia y ciencia, y en el que se hará visible tanto el fruto del esfuerzo humano como su valor simbólico. Porque, en efecto, el pan acerca Dios a los hombres, es el negador del hambre, la aspiración del miserable, la comida que le sobra al rey. Se reclama en los hospitales y los orfanatos, y es finalmente un símbolo de justicia.
