Download or read book Dragon Territory written by Wayang Kulit and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinese coolies dug for gold and built Darwin: they were rewarded with racism and exiled under the White Australia Policy. But some stayed and persevered. Their homes were looted and burned during World War 2. Again they rebuilt and became stronger. Today they are resurgent, this time with the support of the Celestial Kingdom; sovereign funds with Australia's richest miners have become the biggest landowners, buying the ports and subverting the politicians. The economy is in decline and business has no answers other than to increase exports of gas. The novice Government can't make a decision, calling for more reviews, more plans and further inquiries. The only solution is in the hands of the Vietnamese and the Chinese. But at what cost? The police are riven by scandal, the public service incompetent and the Government resembles a bunch of wallabies frozen in a spotlight. The neighbourhood remains the only bulwark against terrorism: can they save the Territory from the Dragon?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Farmers, Indigenous organisations, government and private-sector intermediaries from remote Northern Australia often negotiate with private finance capital to gain funds for agricultural development.The concept of financialisation is used to explore the drivers and effects of agrifood restructuring in the area, while assemblage theory is applied to position local actors as potential sites of power in negotiating connections between local spaces and global finance. This book demonstrates that while financialisation is a useful signifier of patterns of global change, it is assembled by a diverse range of often contradictory work.

Fearless."It's pretty safe to say that Spy was the most influential magazine of the 1980s. It might have remade New York's cultural landscape; it definitely changed the whole tone of magazine journalism.

There's no magazine I know of that's so continually referenced, held up as a benchmark, and whose demise is so lamented" --Dave Eggers. "It's a piece of garbage" --Donald Trump.

Download or read book Fantasticism written by Fanfan Chen and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 2007 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by a universal, cross-cultural vision, this book provides a comparative analysis of the rhetorical and stylistic features in fantastic literature effortlessly crossing the boundaries of cultures, languages and epochs to explore their literary manifestations of the unknown. According to the author, fantastic literature conveys a form of storytelling whose poeticization bridges the known and the unknown realms (in Gilbert Durand's mythocritical, transcendental sense). The author's scope ranges from ancient myths to contemporary literature and addresses developments in Chinese literature and the Greco-Roman fantastic tradition as well as English, French, German and Hispanic literatures. The encyclopaedic breadth and depth of her work responds to the long-felt need for a comparative approach to fantastic literature, bridging Eastern and Western traditions.

Devin competes to become the best artificer in the empire . . . but he's secretly a mage. Devin, a young skilled apprentice, dreams of becoming the master of his craft if he can only resist the sinuous allure of magic. His secret grows heavier as he claws his way to the top of his competitive, cutthroat guild. Friends and rivals start taking notice when Devin glorifies in the persona of the dragon and builds mechanical armor to match.

How long can Devin be satisfied with fake dragon armor when the promise of true arcane power whispers in his ear? Embark on Devin's dark, epic journey in Book One of The Artifice Mage Saga. Join the fantasy steampunk brawl of metal vs. magic where sorcery is bloody, science is greasy, and nobody's hands are clean.

Download or read book Naive Art written by Nathalia Brodskaya and published by Parkstone International. This book was released on 2012-01-05 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Naive art first became popular at the end of the 19th century. Until that time, this form of expression, created by untrained artists and characterised by spontaneity and simplicity, enjoyed little recognition from professional artists and art critics. Influenced by primitive arts, naive painting is distinguished by the fluidity of its lines, vivacity, and joyful colours, as well as by its rather clean-cut, simple shapes. Naive art counts among it artists: Henri Rousseau, Séraphine de Senlis, André Bauchant, and Camille Bombois. This movement has also found adherents abroad, including such prominent artists as Joan Miró, Guido Vedovato, Niko Pirosmani, and Ivan Generalic.

But now a Storm approaches, one that could sweep away everything that humans have built. Only one person has any chance of uniting enough of the world behind to stop the Storm. Mari is a brilliant young Mechanic, just out of the Guild Halls, where she has spent most of her life learning how to run the steam locomotives and other devices of her Guild. Alain is the youngest Mage ever to learn how to change the world he sees with the power of his mind. Each has been taught that the works of the other's Guild are frauds. But when their caravan is destroyed, they must join forces. Their union could save the world from the approaching Storm, but it could also upend the Great Guilds who will stop at nothing to preserve their power. Mari and Alain will have to choose between protecting their lives and their Guilds, or risking everything to protect Dematr from the coming Storm.
