ARCHITECTURE seems to me to be the most wonderful of all the arts. We may not love it as much as others, when we are young perhaps we cannot do so, because it is so great and so grand; but at any time of life one can see that in Architecture some of the most marvellous achievements of men are displayed. The principal reason for saying this is that Architecture is not an imitative art, like Painting and Sculpture. The first picture that was ever painted was a portrait or an imitation of something that the painter had seen. So in Sculpture, the first statue or bas-relief was an attempt to reproduce some being or object that the sculptor had seen, or to make a work which combined portions of several things that he had observed; but in Architecture this was not true. No temples or tombs or palaces existed until they had first taken form in the mind and imagination of the builders, and were created out of space and nothingness, so to speak. Thus Painting and Sculpture are imitative arts, but Architecture is a constructive art; and while one may love pictures or statues more than the work of the architect, it seems to me that one must wonder most at the last. We do not know how long the earth has existed, and in studying the most ancient times of which we have any accurate knowledge, we come upon facts which prove that men must have lived and died long before the dates of which we can speak exactly. The earliest nations of whose Architecture we can give an account are called heathen nations, and their art is called Ancient or Heathen Art, and this comes down to the time when the Roman Emperor Constantine was converted to Christianity, and changed the Roman Capitol from Rome to Constantinople in the year of our Lord 328. The buildings and the ruins which still remain from these ancient times are in Egypt, Assyria, Persia, Judea, Asia Minor, Greece, Etruria, and Rome. Many of these have been excavated or uncovered, as, during the ages that have passed since their erection, they had been buried away from sight by the accumulation of earth about them. These excavations are always going on in various countries, and men are ever striving to learn more about the wonders of ancient days; and we may hope that in the future as marvellous things may be revealed to us as have been shown in the past. EGYPT: As we consider the Architecture of Egypt, the Great Pyramid first attracts attention on account of its antiquity and its importance. This was built by Cheops, who is also called Suphis, about 3000 years before Christ. At that distant day the Egyptians seem to have been a nation of pyramid-builders, for even now, after all the years that have rolled between them and us, we know of more than sixty of these mysterious monuments which have been opened and explored. Of all these the three pyramids at Ghizeh are best known, and that of Cheops is the most remarkable among them. Those of you who have studied the history of the wars of Napoleon I. will remember that it was near this spot that he fought the so-called Battle of the Pyramids, and that in addressing his soldiers he reminded them that here the ages looked down upon them, thus referring to the many years during which this great pyramid had stood on the border of the desert, as if watching the flight of Time and calmly waiting to see what would happen on the final day of all earthly things. There have been much speculation and many opinions as to the use for which these pyramids were made, but the most general belief is that they were intended for the tombs of the powerful kings who reigned in Egypt and caused them to be built.The pyramid of Cheops was four hundred and eighty feet and nine inches high, and its base was seven hundred and sixty-four feet square. It is so difficult to understand.

This book, re-edited and illustrated by e-kitap projesi and published again in ebook format. In this book, telling that Boyhood stories of the Most famous persons in the world, and so These 21 famous persons lay out from Christopher Colombus –The pre-founder of the America- to Otto von Bismarc. For example: “When he was sixteen Napoleon and his best friend, a boy named Desmazis, were ordered to join the regiment of La Fère which was then quartered in the south of France. Napoleon was glad of this change which brought him nearer to his island home, and he also felt that he would now learn something of actual warfare. The two boys were taken to their regiment in charge of an officer who stayed with them from the time they left Paris until the carriage set them down at the garrison town. The regiment of La Fère was one of the best in the French army, and the boy immediately took a great liking to everything connected with it. He found the officers well educated and anxious to help him. He declared the blue uniform with red facings to be the most beautiful uniform in the world. He had to work hard, still studying mathematics, chemistry, and the laws of fortification, mounting guard with the other subalterns, and looking after his own company of men. He seemed very young to be put in charge of grown soldiers, but his great ability had brought about this extraordinarily rapid promotion. He had a room in a boarding-house kept by an old maid, but took his meals at the Inn of the Three Pigeons. Now that he was an officer he began to be more interested in making a good appearance before people. He took dancing lessons and suddenly blossomed out into much popularity among the garrison. Older people could not help but see his great strength of character, and time and again it was predicted that he would rise high in the army.”

AS you open this book you will probably ask, "What is a golden deed?"?Let me tell you. It is the doing of something for somebody else doing it without thought of self, without thought of reward, fearlessly, heroically, and because it is a duty.??Such a deed is possible to you, to me, to everybody. It is frequently performed without forethought or definite intention. It is the spontaneous manifestation of nobility, somewhere, of mind or heart. It may consist merely in the doing of some kind and helpful service at home or at school. It may be an unexpected test of heroism a warning of danger, a saving of somebody's life. It may be an act of benevolence, or a series of such acts, world-wide in application and results.??This little volume is only a book of samples. Here are specimens of golden deeds of various kinds and of different degrees of merit, ranging from the unpremeditated saving of a railroad train to the great humanitarian movement which carries blessings to all mankind. To attempt to tell of every such deed, or of every one that is eminently worthy, would fill a multitude of books. ??The, examples which I have chosen are such only as have occurred on American soil, or have been performed by Americans, thus distinguishing the volume from Miss Charlotte Yonge's "Book of Golden Deeds," published for English readers fifty years ago. While some of these narratives may have the appearance of romance, yet they are all believed to be true, and in most cases the real name of the hero, or of the lover of humanity, is given.??Instances of doing and daring have always a fascination for young people, and when to these is added the idea of a noble underlying motive the lessons taught by them cannot fail to be beneficial. ?

Indezirabilii, publicat sub egida Institutului de Istorie ?George Bari?iu“ al Academiei Rom?ne, scoate la lumin? informa?ii pu?in cunoscute despre exodul etnicilor evrei, rom?ni, ru?i ?i ucraineni din URSS ?n Rom?nia.Cauzele, mijloacele emigr?rii, reac?ia autorit??ilor, a popula?iei autohtone ?i a organiza?iilor interna?ionale, fenomenele conexe sunt relevate ?n contextul profundelor transform?ri sociale ?i politice din perioada 1919-1939. Prezentarea unor texte scrise de ?i despre emigran?i ofer? detalii asupra atrocit??ilor comise de regimul sovietic, a modului ?n care au fost percepu?i ?i a celui ?n care au perceput indezirabilii statul na?ional unitar rom?n.Fragment din subsec?iunea ?Trecerea Nistrului ?n ambele sensuri: motive ?i consecin?e“Unul din efectele masacrelor de la Nistru din lunile februarie-martie 1932 ?i ale noului val de refugia?i din RASS Moldoveneasc? asupra opiniei publice din Rom?nia a constat ?n exprimarea pozi?iei fa?? de evenimentele tragice ?n publica?ii. Jurnali?tii ?i cercet?torii nu s-au limitat la analiza evenimentelor, ci au publicat o serie ?ntreag? de materiale despre istoria regiunii transnistrene ?i a rom?nilor de acolo. De exemplu, potrivit lui Pamfil ?eicaru, amplificarea represiunilor din URSS reprezenta unul din aspectele luptei ?mpotriva tradi?iei (familia, p?m?ntul, religia), iar rom?nii transnistreni – un bastion de ?nd?r?tnic? rezisten?? a tradi?iei. ?n fapt, purificarea regiunii transnistrene, echivala cu desfiin?area pseudo-autonomiei moldovene?ti, iar dispari?ia entit??ii intra ?n linia necesit??ilor de via?? ale centraliz?rii Moscovei, trec?nd peste particularit??ile provinciale. Motivele extermin?rii sunt rezumate ?n finalul analizei: ?Moldovenii n-au fost buni, n-au slujit scopurilor pentru care li se d?duse chiar ?i titlul de Republic? Moldoveneasc?, dispari?ia lor a ap?rut ca o porunc? nivelatoare a standardului na?ional conceput de Stalin. ?i de pe p?m?nturile unde tr?iesc de veacuri, de pe malurile Nistrului, sunt porni?i ?n dep?rt?rile pustii ?i ?nghe?ate ale Siberiei. Drumul lung ?i greu, foamea, bolile, le va tot ?mpu?ina num?rul, p?n? ce nu va mai r?m?ne niciunul din neamul blestemat al moldovenilor, ace?ti ?nd?r?tnici adversari ai uniformiz?rii staliniste. De-a lungul Rusiei ro?ii (tot at?t de milostiv? ca ?i Rusia ?arist?) mormintele lor vor ?nsemna drumul crucific?rii moldave. ?i ieri ?i azi Pohod na Sibir! Numai imbecilii ??i ?nchipuie c? esen?a na?iilor se schimb? prin revolu?ii“. La 23 martie 1932, sub impresia cazurilor, individuale sau de grup, aproape zilnice, de ?mpu?care a ??ranilor rom?ni care ?ncercau s? p?trund? din Transnistria ?n Rom?nia, Pamfil ?eicaru dezvolta ideea de standardizare spiritual? prin represiune masiv?, exterminatorie, ?ntr-un articol cu accente directe antiminoritare ?i indirecte antiguvernamentale. Raportat la incapacitatea sau imposibilitatea opririi crimelor de la frontiera sovieto-rom?n?, directorul Curentului propunea efectuarea unui schimb de popula?ie cu URSS, mediat de Societatea Na?iunilor: ?[…] exact ?n propor?ia numeric? a moldovenilor de peste Nistru ce ni s-ar trimite, am expedia comuni?ti ruteni, oameni converti?i ce nu ar mai necesita at?ta trud? uciga?? c?te sunt constr?nse autorit??ile sovietice s? fac?“. O critic? explicit? viza rolul activ pe care ar fi trebuit s?-l joace Societatea Na?iunilor: ?Un mijloc foarte simplu de a curma un asasinat, un semn de prezen?? uman? a institu?iei de asisten?? a popoarelor, de activ? prezen?? a Societ??ii Na?iunilor“. Trebuie men?ionat ?ns? faptul c?, ?ntr-un articol ulterior, se consemna sprijinul acordat de A. ?ulghin, reprezentantul ucrainean la Geneva, delega?iei Rom?niei, care a cerut condamnarea masacrelor de la Nistru ?n format multilateral. Mai mult dec?t at?t, putem observa c? ucrainenii sunt men?iona?i pe l?ng? etnicii rom?ni ca victime ale atrocit??ilor: ?Masacrele s-au repetat, ??ranii au fost ?mpu?ca?i f?r? mil?, rom?ni ?i ucraineni laolalt?“.

n vara anului 1914, cea mai mare parte a Europei s-a prbuit ntr-un rzboi att de catastrofal nct a zdruncinat politica i nsui sistemul de credine al continentului ntr-un mod fundamental. Dezastrul i-a nspimntat pe supravieuitori i a ocat o civilizaie care i asumase total rolul de model pentru restul lumii. Totul s-a prbuit ntr-un haos de o slbticie aflat dincolo de orice termen de comparaie. n 1939, europenii aveau s nceap un al doilea conflict care a reuit s fie chiar i mai teribil – un rzboi n care uciderea civililor a ocupat scena central i care a culminat cu Holocaustul. Drumul spre iadne spune aceast poveste cu nelegere, fler i originalitate. Kershaw reia evenimentele ntr-o naraiune fascinant, dar abordeaz i problemele cele mai dificile pe care le ridic aceste ntmplri din trecut – ce au nsemnat ele pentru europenii care le-au declanat i care le-au trit i ce nseamn pentru noi.

Doamna Marusia CIRSTEA, doctor in stiinte istorice, a investigat, in baza cercetarii unei extrem de bogate bibliografii si a unor studii intense in arhivele diplomatice si militare interne (Arhiva Ministerului de Externe al Romaniei - Bucuresti, Arhivele Militare Nationale – Bucuresti si Pitesti, Arhivele Nationale ale Romaniei - Bucuresti, Biblioteca Nationala si Biblioteca Academiei Romane, ambele din Bucuresti), o problema de mare interes, abordata pana acum de numerosi istorici romani si straini (Paul D. Quinlan, Elisabeth Barker, V. F. Dobrinescu, Gh. Pascalau, Ion Patroiu s.a.). Tocmai de aceea, meritul autoarei este cu totul deosebit, intrucat, bazandu-se pe rezultatele cercetarilor anterioare, dar, aprofundandu-le si completandu-le substantial cu documente inedite, este in masura sa realizeze o contributie stiintifica de reala valoare pe marginea evolutiei raporturilor politico-diplomatice intre Romania si Marea Britanie intr-una din perioadele cele mai captivante si mai dificile ale epocii contemporane – ajunul conflagratiei mondiale din 1939-1945. Asa dupa cum se subliniaza in ampla Introducere, problema cercetata ?constituie o tema de studiu si de reflectie importanta, interesanta si plina de invataminte, nu numai pentru istoricul de astazi, dar si pentru omul simplu, pasionat de istorie si, indeosebi, pentru politicianul si diplomatul care trebuie sa gaseasca solutii practice unor aspecte interesand raporturile internationale“ (p. 3). Astfel, dupa o pertinenta si documentata Introducere, care elucideaza si aspectele istoriografice ale cercetarii, autoarea realizeaza o consistenta monografie privind relatiile dintre Bucuresti si Londra intre 1936 si 1939, in cuprinsul a patru capitole judicios repartizate pentru a se asigura tratarea globala si unitara a materiei. De un mare interes si cu o importanta pondere in economia lucrarii se dovedesc, nu mai putin, Concluziile (pp. 200-213), Bibliografia (pp. 214-232) si cele 25 de Anexe (pp. 233-350).Ultimele luni de pace si inceputul celui de-al doilea razboi mondial, evolutia raporturilor anglo-romane in context fac obiectul celui de-al IV-lea capitol. Principalele evenimente tratate sunt, in ordine cronologica, faimosul caz Tilea; garantiile franceze si britanice acordate Poloniei, Greciei si Romaniei; rostul pactului sovieto-german din 23 august 1939 in politica europeana; declansarea razboiului si atitudinea Romaniei si, in sfarsit, proclamarea neutralitatii Romaniei in razboi vizavi de implicarea Marii Britanii in ostilitati. Temeinicia cercetarii este atestata de o bogata si sistematica Bibliografíe, care, fara indoiala, intregeste, in chip fericit, textul lucrarii. In acelasi timp, Anexele ingaduie specialistului si cititorului interesat sa aprecieze amploarea si seriozitatea investigatiilor arhivistice.

"Do not act as if you had ten thousand years to throw away. Death stands at your elbow. Be good for something while you live, and it is in your power." —Marcus Aurelius. "Every line, every road, every gable, every tower, has some story of the past present in it. Every tocsin that sounds is a chronicle; every bridge that unites the two banks of the river, unites also the crowds of the living with the heroism of the dead."The beauty of the past goes with you at every step in Florence. Buy eggs in the market, and you buy them where Donatello bought those which fell down in a broken heap before the wonder of the crucifix. Pause in a narrow by-street in a crowd, and it shall be that Borgo Allegri, which the people so baptized for love of the old painter and the new-born art. Stray into a great dark church at evening time, where peasants tell their beads in the vast marble silence, and you are where the whole city flocked, weeping, at midnight, to look their last upon the dead face of their Michael Angelo. Buy a knot of March anemones or April arum lilies, and you may bear them with you through the same city ward in which the child Ghirlandaio once played amidst the gold and silver garlands that his father fashioned for the young heads of the Renaissance. Ask for a shoemaker, and you shall find the cobbler sitting with his board in the same old twisting, shadowy street-way where the old man Toscanelli drew his charts that served a fair-haired sailor of Genoa, called Columbus." Florence, Shelley's "Smokeless City," was the ardently loved home of Michael Angelo. He was born March 6, 1475, or, according to some authorities, 1474, the Florentines reckoning time from the incarnation of Christ, instead of his birth. Lodovico Buonarotti, the father of Michael Angelo, had been appointed governor of Caprese and Chiusi, and had moved from Florence to the Castle of Caprese, where this boy, his second child, was born. The mother, Francesca, was, like her husband, of noble family, and but little more than half his age, being nineteen and he thirty-one. After two years they returned to Florence, leaving the child at Settignano, three miles from the city, on an estate of the Buonarottis'. He was intrusted to the care of a stone-mason's wife, as nurse. Living among the quarrymen and sculptors of this picturesque region, he began to draw as soon as he could use his hands. He took delight in the work of the masons, and they in turn loved the bright, active child. On the walls of the stone-mason's house he made charcoal sketches, which were doubtless praised by the foster-parents.

1944. május k?zepét?l sz?k két hónap leforgása alatt a magyar csend?r?k, rend?r?k és hivatalnokok hatékony k?zrem?k?désével t?bb mint 430 ezer, zsidónak min?sített magyar állampolgárt deportáltak. Túlnyomó t?bbségüket Auschwitz-Birkenauba vitték és meg?lték. Vajon az események milyen láncolata vezetett ehhez a holokauszt t?rténetében is példátlan méret? és gyorsaságú akcióhoz? Hol határoztak a magyarországi ?végs? megoldásról”? Berlinben vagy Budapesten? Kik, mikor és milyen k?rülmények k?z?tt hoztak végs? d?ntést a magyar zsidók deportálásáról? K?D?R G?BOR és V?GI ZOLT?N az etnikai tisztogatásokat és népirtásokat, valamint a világháborús német és magyar d?ntéshozatali mechanizmust elemezve keres válaszokat a kérdésekre. ?gy vélik, hogy a tragédia hátterében két er?, két szándék találkozása állt. Az egyik a német népirtási program volt, amelynek gy?kerei Hitler és a nácik radikális antiszemitizmusában, fajhigiéniai és etnopolitikai elképzeléseiben lelhet?k fel. A másik pedig az a mára szinte elfelejtett magyar t?rténeti attit?d, amely évszázadok óta az ?idegennek” tekintett népcsoportok beolvasztására, kiszorítására és el?zésére t?rekedett, és amely rabul ejtette a hazai fajvéd?k és a politikai elit gondolkodását. A t?rténészpáros szerint 1944-ben e két t?rekvést leginkább megszemélyesít? szerepl?k, a német Adolf Eichmann és a magyar Endre László végzetes találkozása radikalizálta tovább azt a folyamatot, amely az európai zsidóüld?zés egyik leggyilkosabb d?ntéséhez vezetett.

Németh Miklós és Pozsgay Imre egy k?tetben! Mellettük pedig Mayer Péter, Markovics Ferenc, Arató István, Kajli Béla, Kerezsi István és még sokan mások. Ismert, k?zismert és kevésbé ismert nevek egy beszélget?k?nyvben, amely a munkás?rség t?rténetét ?leli fel. A szerz?k megfogalmazásában: t?bb szempontból sem hagyományos interjúk?tetet készítettünk, vállalva ennek el?nyeit és hátrányait egyaránt. K?sz?nhet? volt ez annak is, hogy a k?nyv megírását megel?zte egy, a testület teljes t?rténetét feldolgozó kétrészes, ?sszesen k?zel egyórás dokumentumfilm elkészítése a Munkás?rség - Egy párthadsereg t?rténete címmel. A munkás?r?k nehéz ládát cipelnek. Amikor letették, hogy megpihenjenek, épp arra j?n János bácsi, a téesz juhásza és megkérdi: Mit cipelnek fiaim? Hadititok!, feleli az egyik munkás?r. ?s nagyon nehéz a láda? Már hogyne lenne nehéz, mikor tele van kézigránáttal?, válaszol az egyik munkás?r. A korabeli viccben és t?bbek emlékezetében is úgy él a Munkás?rség, mint egy kissé esetlen, sokszor id?s embereknek a gy?jt?helye vagy klubja. De a valóságban ez egyáltalán nem így volt. Az '56-os forradalom leverését k?vet?en létrehozott szervezet feladata sokáig kizárólag a rend(szer) védelmének a biztosítása volt. A kádári állam kiépülését k?vet?en kidolgozták háborús, határ?rizeti és polgári védelmi feladataikat is. A kezdetben harminc-, majd hatvanezer f?s párthadsereg létszámát tekintve a korabeli Magyar Néphadseregéhez képest is jelent?s volt! A rendszerváltás során a hatalom részér?l felmerült a testület átmentése is, de erre végül nem került sor. A Munkás?rség felszámolását 1989-ben a teljes ellenzék k?vetelte, leszerelésük jelent?s izgalommal t?lt?tte el a magyar társadalmat. De hogy látták mindezt a korabeli vezet? politikusok, katonák, és nem utolsó sorban maguk a munkás?r?k? Az interjúk?tet erre próbál választ találni.

Kijárat az Adriára cím? nagysiker? munkája után Lovas Ildikó újabb regénye a mai divatos n?irodalommal száll szembe, a test, az érzékiség nyelvét nem radikalizálja tovább, hanem ?visszavesz” bel?le, mivel rendkívüli tudatossággal újra és újra az ártatlanság nyelvén akar szólni. A Spanyol menyasszony az erotikus krimi és a klasszikus lányregény mesteri ?tv?zete. A regény két síkon játszódik, az egyik az én-elbeszél? kiskamaszkoráig vezet vissza, míg a másik a neves orvos-író Csáth Géza feleségének, Jónás Olgának az utolsó napját beszéli el, abból próbálja megfejteni az író és felesége kegyetlenül túlf?t?tt, és tragédiába torkolló kapcsolatát.

1974-ben az Emmanuelle meghódította a francia mozikat, és r?vid id?n belül az egész világon hatalmas sikert aratott. A korabeli plakátokról egy húsz év k?rüli, r?vid hajú, félmeztelen szépség nézett kihívóan egy fonott karosszékéb?l. Ekkor még senki sem sejtette, hogy SYLVIA KRISTEL, ez az akkor még ismeretlen holland lány hamarosan a szexuális forradalom egyik emblematikus alakjává válik. A hírnévt?l és a sikert?l megrészegült színészn? egy csapásra a nemzetk?zi filmvilág ünnepelt sztárja lett, azonban nem kapott elég id?t, hogy feldolgozza a hirtelen j?tt népszer?séget, sem pedig a gyermekkorában ?t ért sérelmeket. A sztárok fény?z? és gondtalan életét élte, udvarlók seregei hevertek a lába el?tt, bejáratos volt a legcsillogóbb hollywoodi fogadásokra. Magánéletében azonban már k?zel sem volt ilyen szerencsés. Házasságai zátonyra futottak, a sorozatos sorscsapások és a múlt démonai el?l az alkoholba és drogokba menekült. Kicsapongásainak végül egy súlyos betegség vetett véget. Visszaemlékezéseiben ?szintén tárja elénk egy olyan asszony felemel? és megrendít? t?rténetét, akinek nem csak meztelen teste érdemel figyelmet.

A rock and roll nem csupán egy zenei m?faj, ?nem egy tánc”: maga az ?r?k fiatalság. Alkotás és feloldódás, amit nem magányos farkasoknak találtak ki. Csapatmunka, melyben zenész és hallgatósága egyaránt részt vesz. ?Mindenki itt van?” – kiáltja a sztár a színpadról, a t?meg pedig harsogva feleli: ?Mindenki!” Mert ahhoz, hogy egy dal megszülessen, hogy ezernyi torok visszhangozza az énekes mágikus szavait, valóban mindenkire szükség van. Az Azok a régi csibészek a hazai pop és rock legendáinak arcképcsarnoka. Csatári Bence t?rténész és Poós Zoltán író faggatja a popkultúra olyan ikonikus alakjait és nagyágyúit, mint Bródy János, Nagy Feró, Sz?rényi Levente, T?r?k ?dám, Pataky Attila, Zalatnay Sarolta és még sokan mások. Az interjúkból kirajzolódik a magyarországi rock and roll els? negyedszázadának íve Nógrádver?cét?l Londonig. A megszólalók mesélnek és mesélnek – a legvidámabb barakk k?nny?zenei szcénájáról, ?rületes bulikról, rend?rpofonokról és persze a rock and roll iránti olthatatlan szerelemr?l...

A obra encadeia associa??es entre os valores técnicos da língua e os valores estéticos da literatura. Realiza, ent?o, duas abordagens complementares, defi nida a unidade língua/literatura como uma díade com polos inseparáveis – a língua sustentando um código limitativo e prescritivo; a literatura alimentando a reprodu??o artística do sistema linguístico –, da fus?o de ambas resultando um efeito de sentido.

Egy t?kéletes férfi és egy kül?nleges lány. Vajon mit rejthet a hibátlan álca? William, a milliárdos üzletember Seattle-be utazik, hogy megtalálja elhunyt nevel?apja egyetlen vér szerinti gyermekét, akit ténylegesen megillet a férfira hagyott ?r?kség. Mik?zben piszkos módszereivel a valódi ?r?k?s után kutat, ?sszehozza a sors egy dacos, szemtelen, fiatal lánnyal, aki egyedi szépségével azonnal megbabonázza ?t. William felrúgva saját szabályait, enged Jessica csábításának. Ahogy egyre k?zelebb kerülnek egymáshoz, William ráj?n, hogy Jessica nem egy átlagos lány, a múltját s?tét titkok rejtik, ami után a férfi hiába nyomoz, folyton zsákutcába fut.Mer?ben eltér? személyiségük, életvitelük és a k?ztük lév? korkül?nbség nehéz d?ntés elé állítja ?ket. Megéri ennyit szenvedni egy boldog kapcsolat lehet?sége miatt? Ha fény derül minden titokra, képesek lesznek ugyanúgy nézni egymásra, mint azel?tt?Lilly Shade t?rténete nemcsak arra bizonyíték, hogy nincsenek véletlenek, de arra is, hogy a sors sem mindig kegyes. A t?kéletes nem valódi, és ami annak látszik, csupán álca. Az ilyen álcák pedig a legs?tétebb titkokat rejtegetik.

Ervin, ?va és Csaba t?rténete folytatódik. A F?pap és a praetoriánusok serege már nem fenyegetik ?ket, helyettük azonban egy gyilkos klán, egy természetimádó szekta és egy minden dimenziót uralni akaró entitás háborújának frontvonalában találják magukat. A tét pedig nem kevesebb, mint a F?ld j?v?je. Vajon az emberiség ki tud lépni a saját árnyékából, vagy végleg elenyészik? H?seink meg tudnak birkózni a rájuk váró akadályokkal? Bízhatnak-e az új sz?vetségeseikben? ?s egymásban??rmány, árulás, átalakulás és áldozathozatal. A világunk sorsa most d?l el!

Aganetha Smart, a 104 éves egykori olimpikon futón? elfeledve él egy nyugdíjasotthonban. Gy?zelmével annak idején mindenkit leny?g?z?tt: a kanadai versenyz? abban az évben nyert aranyat, amikor el?sz?r szerepelhettek n?i atléták az olimpián. Sorsát azonban legalább ennyire meghatározták az els? világháború komor évei, valamint vágya, hogy szembeszálljon korának konvencióival. Egy napon két idegen keresi fel, akik dokumentumfilmet készítenek a régi id?k n?i sportolóiról. A múlt eseményeit megismerve lassan megértjük, miként segített az aranyérem Aganethának megszabadulni a titkokkal terhelt családi ház béklyóitól. ?m a hajdani bajnokn?nek még egy kihívással szembe kell néznie: a filmesek talán nem is azok, mint akiknek mutatják magukat… Carrie Snydert valós t?rténelmi helyzetek inspirálták, hogy megírja fordulatokban gazdag regényét, a becsvágy és a n?i emancipáció t?rténetét, amelyb?l kiderül, hogyan képes határait átlépve a saját életét élni egy n?.
