New Turkish Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). Edition in Turkish. 304 p. [Abbasids] Abbâsîler. The Abbasids rose to power by bringing the Umayyad reign to an end with a revolution that has been described as a definitive turning point in the history of Islam. The Abbasids' accession to power, who reigned for over 500 years, bringing with them many changes in political, social, cultural and religious construct. This study, which aims to provide a historical account of the Abbasid period for those who are curious about the history of Islam, is designed to cover the political history of the Abbasid period, as well as topics related to culture&civilization. While analyzing the outlines of the Abbasid history, this book exhibits an approach that presents the period in a chronological stream and centers around the major events and facts that constitute the basic Dynamics of the era, rather than a caliph-centered narrative style.

DJ in mylar; Cleopatra was intimately involved in the critical years that saw the Roman Republic transformed into the Roman Empire. How this transition appeared to the Queen of Egypt - and the part she played in it - is the subject of Pat Southern's engrossing new biography. Descended from the first Ptolemy, one of the companions of Alexander the Great, Cleopatra was the last in a long line of Macedonian rulers of Egypt. It was Julius Caesar's involvement in an Alexandrian civil war that led to her being set up as Queen of Egypt. She also had an affair with Caesar, by whom she produced a son Ptolemy Caesar, better known as Caesarion. A good linguist, intelligent and shrewd, she soon proved herself an able administrator - and ruthless when necessary. For two years she was a guest of Caesar's in Rome, but on his assassination she returned to Alexandria - where in turn Mark Antony was to become her geust and lover. Over the years of their acquaintance they produced three children. However, Roman sensibilities were greatly disturbed by the Donations of Alexandria whereby Antony distributed vast areas of the east to Cleopatra and their children, and their behavior allowed Octavian (the future emperor Augustus) to brand the Egyptian Queen as the arch enemy, worse than Hannibal, nearer than the Parthians and powerful because she had access to Antony's legions. ; 160 pages

Light edgewear to wraps. Spine a bit creased. ; This lavishly illustrated catalogue coincides with a major international exhibition celebrating images of Cleopatra. It explores how she was depicted during her own era, in works ranging from coins to life-size sculpture. Exciting new discoveries are featured--including seven Egyptian-style statues believed to represent Cleopatra, and two portraits probably commissioned while she was living in Rome with Julius Caesar. The book also examines interpretations of Cleopatra from the Renaissance to modern times, as seen in paintings, ceramics, jewelry, plays, operas, and film. In addition, recent archaeological finds from Alexandria (Cleopatra's capital) and from Rome illustrate aspects of life in Cleopatra's day. ; 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall; 384 pages

ril. Davvero è Meghan Markle, la bellissima ex attrice americana, la causa della fuga di Harry dalla prigione dorata di Buckingham Palace, oppure è il seme dell'irrequietezza, di quell'ansia di libertà ereditata dalla madre che ha spinto il duca di Sussex oltreoceano? Poteva la sola influenza di una donna sbriciolare il rapporto fra due fratelli apparsi inseparabili per trent'anni? Il solido legame affettivo suscitato dalla dolcezza di Diana è evidente nelle tristissime immagini del settembre 1997, in cui i ragazzi seguono a capo chino il feretro della madre. Due orfani uniti dalla disperazione di una perdita immensa e dal ricordo di una felicità irrecuperabile, che entrambi manterranno vivo negli anni a seguire. Il talento di affascinare il mondo - lo stesso della principessa Diana - ha permesso a William e Harry di superare gli scivoloni e i passi falsi in cui sono incappati da giovani. E così sono arrivati a incarnare un diverso modello di monarchia, più popolare, calorosa e sensibile alle buone cause. Per questo, adesso, la loro inimicizia diventa storia e va a incidere sulle dinamiche del Palazzo e sul futuro di una Corona indebolita dal declino fisico della regina Elisabetta. In questo nuovo capitolo dell'inesauribile saga dei Windsor Antonio Caprarica ne ricostruisce le fasi più recenti, scandagliando il complicato vincolo di affetto e parentela che ha saldato le vite dei due principi, l'uno destinato al trono e l'altro al ruolo di «erede di scorta». Con l'acutezza e la ricchezza di dettagli che gli sono abituali, il più grande esperto italiano della Corte britannica mostra le radici e i significati nascosti di vicende che continuano a tenere la scena mondiale e a suscitare l'interesse e la curiosità di un pubblico vastissimo.
