Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “It would be hard to imagine Russian poetry in the last half century without Lydia Grigorieva,” writes eminent Russian poet and critic Konstantin Kedrov. Grigorieva is a uniquely individual voice, bucking the trends of modernist poetry to create her own distinctive and beguiling body of poetry. Her work draws on her own remarkable life to create startlingly arresting images and metaphors, full of beauty and power, from her series that emerged from her Arctic childhood, to the troubles that beset Ukraine. Her range of influences is wide, and Beethoven, Freud, Sylvia Plath and Byron all appear in her poems as well as more familiar Russian images. At the heart of Grigorieva’s poetry is what she calls its ‘musicality’ – her firm belief in the power of rhyme and rhythm in creating a poetic experience. In this first major collection of her work in English, English poet John Farndon, working with Grigorieva and co-translator Olga Nakston, has recreated this musicality in English so that English readers might experience for the first time what makes her work so revered in her Russian homeland. Translated by John Farndon with Olga Nakston. Maxim Hodak - Максим Ходак (Publisher), Max Mendor - Макс Мендор (Director), Ksenia Papazova (Managing Editor).

Book excerpt: Scientists agree that by the end of this century the polar bear will be the first mammal threatened with extinction due to climate change. "The Last Polar Bear" is the first book to fully document that story.The continued survival of these magnificent white bears in their warming, and melting, Arctic world is uncertain, yet their fate is also a wake-up call compelling us to act now to stem global warming. Through Steven Kazlowski's unparalleled imagery, the most critical environmental issue of our time is brought to life."The Last Polar Bear" places the reality of climate change in our hands. We see the plight of the polar bear, an animal already feeling the detrimental effects of our reliance on fossil fuels, as its icy habitat melts.Over the course of the last six years, wildlife photographer Steven Kazlowski has photographed the polar bear in its wild habitat, from Hershel Island in Canada to Point Hope in Alaska. "The Last Polar Bear" pairs his intimate images with anecdotes about his Arctic adventures, as well as authoritative essays about the polar bear in the context of climate change.Alaska based writers Richard Nelson, Charles Wohlforth, Nick Jans, and leading USGS polar bear biologist Steven C. Amstrup draw on decades of experience in the Arctic to cover the biological, cultural, and anthropological aspects of climate change. Dan Glick, long-time correspondent for "Newsweek", addresses the history of climate change while Frances Beinecke, president of the Natural Resources Defence Council, and Theodore Roosevelt IV offer perspectives on activism and politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here's a brief summary of the story: Lily and Max are two curious siblings who like to try new things. They go on an Arctic trip to a small town surrounded by snow-capped mountains. Their interest leads them to do research and make plans for the trip of a lifetime. They set out with their packs full of goods and a map they knew they could trust. They were ready to face cold forests and ice rivers. As Lily and Max continue on their trip, they see beautiful reindeer, marvel at the Northern Lights, and meet playful seals. Selma, a seal, talks to them and gives them advice, which is a treat. With Selma as their guide, they learn about the delicate balance of the Arctic and how important it is. From sudden snowstorms to fishing on the ice with smart Arctic animals, their trip tests their courage and ability to make do with what they have. They finally hear about the famous Crystal Glacier, which is thought to hold the secrets to the power of the Arctic. After climbing up cold walls and crossing crevasses, they find the glacier and a crystal ball that gives off warmth and knowledge. With the touch of the ball, they fixed a split that was upsetting the balance of the Arctic. This causes the Northern Lights to shine brightly. The Arctic Guardians gave them the Crystal Compass as a thank you. This will help them find their way on future trips. When they get back to their hamlet, Lily and Max tell them their stories. This makes them want to protect the environment and value natural wonders. Years later, Lily and Max get a mysterious letter that tells them to go back to the Arctic. The Northern Lights lead them back to Selma and the Guardians. The Guardians talk about a dangerous force that is upsetting the balance of the Arctic. Lily and Max collect magical shards of ice to bring people together. In the process, they learn how important unity, respect, and peace are. After dealing with storms and raging rivers, they get the bits and head back to the Gateway of Ice. They fix the split by calling on the magic of the Arctic, so the Northern Lights shine brighter above. Guardians, who are happy for them, give them the Crystal Compass. Because of how much they care, their hamlet becomes a source of motivation. As time goes on, Lily and Max's legacy grows, and their stories inspire new generations to explore, defend, and appreciate nature. The Crystal Compass is a sign of their connection to the magic of the Arctic and a promise that they will keep going on their quest. Their stories are passed down from generation to generation and serve as a symbol of unity. In the end, they go back to the Arctic and meet up with the Guardians and the Crystal Glacier. Their story comes full circle when they realize that they will always be linked to the Arctic. As they look at the Northern Lights, they understand that their journey hasn't ended. It's an expedition, a discovery, and a link between people and the natural world. How the story started: Once upon a time, Lily, and Max, two brave brothers, lived in a small village between two snowy mountains. They were known for being very interested and always wanting to go somewhere new. What is their latest obsession? The Arctic Circle! A small town that looked like it came from a fairy tale stood in a lonely part of the world where the land and sky met in a beautiful show of snow-capped peaks and endless blue. It was a place where time moved at its own slow pace and the air smelled of pine trees and new experiences. The town, which was tucked between two tall mountains, gave off an air of peace and quiet. It was a refuge from the chaos of modern life. Two amazing brothers lived in this beautiful place. Soon, their names would be linked to daring adventures and endless curiosity. Lily and Max were not like any other kids in the town. Their names were like musical notes that floated on the breeze. They were curious people who wanted to know more about the world. Their eyes shone like polished gems, and their hearts beat to the beat of wanderlust. Lily and Max were young when their curiosity was sparked like a flame in the middle of winter. This made them interested in new places. Every morning was a chance to start a new adventure, and each road was a doorway to a new world. Their eager interest had no limits, whether it was following the paths of the stars or figuring out what the wind was saying. But it wasn't just curiosity that drove them forward. They had an insatiable desire to find out more, like a hidden spring that was ready to burst forth and set its own path. Their whole town was full of stories and secrets, but it was the faraway places that drew them in with their promises of magic and new things to find. The Arctic then drew them in like the lightest snowfall that covers the whole world in a magical silence. Its vast and mysterious ice landscapes called to them like the song of a mermaid. The idea of a place where icebergs and glaciers ruled, and the northern lights danced like ghostly dancers in the sky became an obsession and a shared goal that tied Lily and Max together in a tapestry of dreams. Lily and Max stuck to their new hobby even as the seasons changed, and the neighborhood changed around them. They read every book and story about travelers who braved the cold to find out what was hidden in the Arctic. Their walls were covered with maps that were crisscrossed with paths that told tales of danger and bravery.

Download or read book A Test of Time written by Sturt W. Manning and published by Oxbow Books Limited. This book was released on 1999 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The great mid-second millennium BC eruption of the Thera (Santorini) volcano in the Aegean Sea, has been the subject of intense popular and scholarly interest. The effects of the eruption have been linked with the destruction of the Minoan palace civilization of Crete, the legend of Atlantis and even the events described in the Biblical account of the Exodus. Scientists have studied the remains of the volcano, traced eruption products across the east Mediterranean, and sought evidence for a climatic impact in ice-cores and tree-rings. At Akrotiri, archaeologists have unearthed a major prehistoric town which was buried by the eruption, finding multi-storey houses decorated with wonderful frescoes, and full of ceramics and other finds linking this site with the contemporary civilisations of Crete, Greece, Anatolia, Cyprus, the Levant and Egypt.
