"Kruscev ricorda è, oltre che un documento storico eccezionale, anche un libro particolarmente avvincente. Mai prima d'ora, in tutti gli anni trascorsi dalla grande Rivoluzione russa, avevamo avuto accesso alle intime memorie politiche di un leader sovietico, mai prima d'ora ci si era presentata la possibilità di penetrare all'interno del potere del Cremlino: e questo oggi avviene grazie ai ricordi spesso impressionanti, a vòlte bizzarri, di frequente ingenui, non di rado arguti ma sempre 'rivelatori dell'uomo che dal 1953 al 1964 fu a capo dell'Unione Sovietica e che suscitò nel mondo una impressione tanto vivida e sconvolgente." Complessivamente buon esemplare, comune brunitura ai tagli, e piccole fioritura alle sguardie e al recto della sovracoperta. Minime mende ai margini della sovracoperta. timbretto verde, Ex Libris RAVERA al frontespizio. [n44] Libro

Dance has been a medium for understanding the philosophy of and emotions behind a culture. This is especially true for a country with a vast and complex history like Korea. Korean dance is a tradition that includes every form of contemporary dance in the country, from shamanistic to folk, court to modern traditional dance, and even breakdancing. Over the past several centuries, each of these unique dance forms has attempted to convey the Korean psyche. This book aims to examine Korean dance from its primitive roots to the complex court rituals and on to the pop culture styles of today.146p. illus [col] index. Book

488 pages. Index. "One of the very rare accounts of Korea in the latter part of the nineteenth century. At that time Korea was virtually a forbidden land and had only been open to foreigners for abbout ten years. It was and had been under Chinese influence for centuries. The trip was very difficult but so fascinating that, true to character, Isabella adored it. She undertook many arduous journeys by land and river, observed the breathtakingly beautiful countryside, visited the Buddhist monasteries and had many audiences with the Korean king and his soon to be assassinated queen. While Isabella was on her journey the Japanese invaded Korea and she had to leave hastily, ending up in China, penniless.... Bird won fame in her own time as surely the most remarkable woman traveller of the nineteenth century." - from back cover. Average wear. Unmarked. Binding tight and square. Book

Fine Fine English Paperback. Dust wrapper. 4to. (26 x 20 cm). In English. [vii], [1], 141, [14] p., b/w plates. Korea 1952: Situation negative! An account of service with Turkish brigade. "Along with soldiers of many nationalities, I had the privilege of serving with the forces of the free world in Korea from September 1952 to September 1953. During this period I had the honour to serve alongside the Turkish Brigate. It was therefore with particular interest that I read this book. I can commend it as a factular account of the life and conditions encountered during the Korean War. Here is a story of the human element of war - the welding of men into a professional fighting machine, their trials and tribulations in and out of battle. Men not tactics or strategy, are the theme will come a time in every battle when the issue passes to the soldiers. Victory or defeat is in their hands and will depend at the crucial stage on their courage, discipline and determination to win. Men are the decisive weapon. Although this book tells the story of men - Turks whose reputation on the battlefield is to be envied - it is also the story of all soldiers irrespective of nationality As such it has universal appeal. Mr Danisman is o be congratulated on his straightforward acconut of soldiers on the battlefield.".
