Mitul felin ?n literatura universal? este o lucrare ?n care s-a ?ncercat sintetizarea ?ntr-o form? accesibil?, ?ns? f?r? a fi superficial?, a unei cantit??i impresionante de material, material g?sit at?t ?n publicistica rom?n? c?t ?i cea str?in?. Subiectul lucr?rii a fost o alegere subiectiv?, fiind aproapiat de sufletul autoarei. Fiecare capitol ?n parte trateaz? un aspect al temei dezv?luite ?n titlu, respect?nd ?n acela?i timp o linie cronologic?, acest lucru facilit?nd ?n mod semnificativ ?n?elegerea ?i asimilarea informa?iei. ?ns? ?ntreaga lucrare are ca punct comun permanenta oscilare ?ntre planul real ?i cel fantastic, fabulos, ?ntre documente oficiale (precum cronicile) ?i m?rturiile oferite de supersti?iile populare. ?n primul capitol observam ?ara de origine a pisicii, Egiptul, ?i modul ?n care aceasta era tratat? ca o zeitate cu atribu?ii contradictorii (uneori benefice, alteori sinistre). De?i exportul lor a fost interzis de catre egipteni din motive religioase, acest lucru nu a ?mpiedicat r?sp?ndirea lor ?n toate culturile lumii. Sunt analizate de asemenea ?i diversele legende legate de na?terea pisicii la diferite popoare. Al doilea capitol trateaz? ?n detaliu o tr?s?tur? principal? a mitului felin ?i anume aspectul s?u, parc? implicit, feminin. Feminitatea, tandre?ea, instinctele materne, capriciile, viclenia, elegan?a, independen?a sunt doar c?teva dintre calit??ile comune ale femeii ?i pisicii, calit??i ?nf??i?ate de nenum?ra?i scriitori ?i arti?ti din toate timpurile ?i culturile.Capitolul al treilea ne ?nf??i?eaz? eternele conflicte dintre pisici ?i c?ini (lupt?ndu-se pentru ?ncrederea ?i afec?iunea omului), dintre pisici ?i ?oareci (o ?lupt?“ milenar? ?ntre Bine ?i R?u, unde binele, reprezentat de pisic?, nu ??i poate p?stra mereu puritatea). Aceste ?lupte“ au avut ca rezultat obsesia multor popoare pentru pisici. Dar cu toate acestea, pisicile au fost ?i vor r?m?ne fiin?e independente, niciodat? accept?nd un ?st?p?n“. Nu sunt pu?ini scriitori care ?n operele lor au ?nf??i?at pisicile asemenea unor oameni, capabile de absolut orice: a scrie, a citi, a c?nta, a juca teatru ba chiar ?i a vorbi. Ele au ?i unele dintre calit??ile omului (compasiune, abilitatea de a iubi) dar ?i c?teva dintre defectele acestuia (egoism, violen??, indiferen??). De asemenea li se atribuie puteri supranaturale cum ar fi clarviziunea.

Stanley Spencer (Text Only)
￥115.56
Stanley Spencer (1891 – 1959) has recently been recognised by a wide general public, as well as by art historians, as probably the greatest English painter of the twentieth century. His strange and thrilling settings of biblical and semi-biblical scenes, his grippingly realist portraits, his intense English landscapes, hang in pride of place in our national collections and fetch ever-escalating prices at auction. Although there have been many books about Spencer, Pople's biography is the first to give a thoroughly convincing and coherent account of the life and psyche of the man who produced these extraordinary pictures. Pople has not only had the co-operation of Spencer's daughters and remaining friends' he has had unrestricted access to the artist's letters, diaries and other writings, and has spent ten years unravelling the familiar but so often impenetrable mysteries we see on the canvas. His analysis demonstrates that there never was as artist for whom life and art were so much of a piece, and that without understanding Spencer's doings and circumstances, we have no hope of understanding his paintings.

The Complete Quin and Satterthwaite
￥115.56
A brand new omnibus featuring Agatha Christie’s favourite characters: Messrs Quin and Satterthwaite. Harley Quin is an enigma. He appears and disappears unexpectedly – and usually by strange tricks of the light caused by stained-glass windows or flickering firelight. His background, family and friends are all a mystery – his almost supernatural powers of detection are, however, very real. Mr Satterthwaite is altogether more normal – fundamentally a snob, he lives the carefree lifestyle of a bachelor whilst indulging his hobbies. Yet, beneath this facade is a deep vein of loneliness that compels him to observe everyone and everything. Together they are an unstoppable, crime-fighting tour de force – Sattherthwaite’s skills of observation are honed by Quin’s subtle questioning, bringing to light the most pertinent clues in any crime. With each acting as a catalyst for the other, the criminal fraternity had best beware… This volume brings all the Quin and Satterthwaite novels and short stories together for the first time, and showcases the pair’s talents in a way that clearly explains why Agatha Christie herself was so fond of her creations: ‘The Love Detectives’. Contains: The Mysterious Mr Quin Three-Act Tragedy Dead Man’s Mirror The Love Detectives The Harlequin Tea Set

If your body is a city, the authors explain, it is up to you as mayor, resident and street cleaner to ensure it remains a vibrant city – after all, who wants to live in a run-down, one-horse town? We all have different genes that influence us in same the way as cities are affected by different geographies. However, it is the way in which a city is run and the residents treat it that have the most overwhelming influence. Posing as local inspectors, Roizen and Oz club together to tackle your city's education system (stem cells), power plants (mitochondria), electrical grids (brains), transportation routes (blood vessels), landfills (fat), and parks (skin). They then give you the tools to clean up your act and turn your city back into the cutting-edge, party destination everybody will want to see. Look after your body and it will look after YOU.

Bread Matters: The sorry state of modern bread and a definitive guide to baking
￥114.48
Andrew Whitley, organic baker and founder of The Village Bakery, reveals the deplorable state into which mass produced bread has fallen, and the secrets behind making good, nutritious bread at home. All is not well in British baking. Commercial bread is laced with additives to make it look good and stay soft. It uses varieties of wheat that have been bred for high yield and baking performance with little concern for human nutrition. To rush it through the bakery at the lowest possible cost, it's dosed with four times as much yeast as before. Described as 'fresh' when it may have been frozen and re-heated, it's sold as a loss-leader at knock-down prices which undermine what little respect it may once have commanded. Even before the Atkins diet frightened people off, there was evidence of a massive growth of intolerance – to gluten, wheat and yeast in particular. Call it coincidence. Dismiss it as hypochondria if you will. But things have come to a pretty pass when people avoid their staple food – the staff of life – in droves. ‘Bread Matters’ offers a solution. Revealing the madness behind this modern adulteration of our most basic food as only an insider can, organic baker Andrew Whitley, founder of The Village Bakery in Melmerby, shows why and how to make real bread at home. Unlike many bread book authors, he has baked for a living for over 25 years. His recipes are fool-proof because he explains what’s really going on, demystifying the science, sharing a practical baker’s craft. Using the skills he deploys on his popular courses, he guides and inspires beginners and seasoned bakers alike. And he brings good news to those who have had to abandon bread because of dietary sensitivity, showing how to bake tasty and nutritious food without yeast, wheat or gluten.
