Описание: The traditional stories of Ireland, Scotland, Brittany, and Wales transport us to the fantastical world of Celtic folklore. Translated and transcribed by folklorists in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the 16 stories in this compilation conjure forgotten realms and rare magical creatures in vivid prose. These timeless tales brim with wit and magic, and each one is brought to life with elegant silhouette art by Kate Forrester in this special illustrated edition.

"Divided into four categories-'Tricksters, ' 'The Sea, ' 'Quests, ' and 'Romance'-the 16 tales that make up this handsomely designed collection are adapted from sources originally published between 1888 and 1929, now in the public domain. Full-page silhouette-style images from British illustrator Forrester open each tale, framed within intricate borders featuring fish, gravestones, dragons, and other thematic imagery entwined with Celtic knots. Witches, selkies, fairies, and other creatures make appearances in the brisk tales, which tend toward light humor and happy resolutions. It's an absorbing introduction to the lore of Albion, but readers will also enjoy teasing out similarities between these tales and more familiar ones-the Scottish tale of 'The Black Bull of Norroway' carries echoes of 'Beauty and the Beast, ' while a clumsy girl named Ursula features in the Rumpelstiltskin-like story that opens the collection."

Описание: War is over; the heroic French population reaffirms superiority. Love, Paris, and Flowers ... but London was black, white, and gray, the elegance, the style, all present in front of always changing fog. Then I met a man from Wales talking about the Miners and I had read How Green Was My Valley. This became my only try to make a 'Story.' -Robert Frank
This magnificent new edition of London/Wales, which features never-before-seen photographs, juxtaposes Frank's images of the elegant world of London money with the grimy working-class world of postwar Wales--bankers opposite coal miners. It brings together two distinct bodies of work, and reveals a significant documentary precedent for The Americans. It also offers an important view of Frank's development, demonstrating an early interest in social commentary, in the narrative potential of photographic sequencing, and innovative use of the expressionistic qualities of the medium.

Описание: This book offers insights into why engagement in commercial sex is prolific as sexual culture is transformed in late modernity. Drawing on original empirical data with men who buy sex, the book explores not only `why men buy sex`, but also the sociological and psychological processes that men encounter in order to enter an assumed `deviant` sexual behaviour as part of their everyday lives.

Описание: Dit boek wordt een methodische benadering geboden voor het gestandaardiseerd inrichten en aansturen van modern functioneel beheer. Functioneel beheer kan een mooie brug vormen tussen de business en IT-beheer. Het schijnbaar complexe vakgebied functioneel beheer krijgt nog maar relatief kort de aandacht die het verdient. Met de komst van ITIL is de laatste twee decennia de aandacht vooral gericht geweest op IT-beheer, dat dankzij die aandacht structureel is verbeterd. De tijd is nu rijp om op vergelijkbare wijze structureel te werken aan de verbetering van de brugfunctie die functioneel beheer moet en kan invullen. Om een eind te maken aan de enorme variatie in de praktijk van functioneel beheer is een methodische aanpak noodzakelijk. De FSM-methode (Functional Service Management) is ontwikkeld om invulling te geven aan die behoefte. Door de methodische structuur van FSM wordt een stapsgewijze verbeteraanpak mogelijk. De concrete verbeterdoelen in een FSM-invoering worden steeds bepaald door de lokale organisatie. Dit tekent het methodische karakter van FSM: een brede toepasbaarheid van beschikbare best practices, zoals gedocumenteerd in bijvoorbeeld BiSL, in een gestructureerde aanpak. Dat maakt de FSM-methode praktisch toepasbaar en begrijpelijk. De opzet van de FSM-methode is geheel analoog aan de ISM-methode voor IT-beheer. De methodes worden door tientallen leveranciers van producten en diensten gebruikt bij het ondersteunen van betere dienstverlening in de praktijk van de informatievoorziening. Jan van Bon is een internationaal erkende deskundige auteur, hoofdredacteur en spreker. Zijn brede kennis en analytisch vermogen gebruikt hij, top-down, om kritisch de erkende frameworks en standaarden te beschouwen en daaruit kennis te selecteren en toepasbaar te maken. Wim Hoving heeft ruim 20 jaar ervaring in het invoeren en toepassen van procesmatig werken. Kritisch en autodidactisch heeft hij, bottom-up, constant gewerkt aan het verbeteren van de dienstverlening door praktisch te innoveren en samenhang aan te brengen tussen alle hulpmiddelen.In het boek bieden de auteurs de lezer een degelijke basis voor de aanpak van functioneel beheer. Daarbij kunnen lokaal aanwezige middelen, tools, en werkwijzen in die aanpak een plaats krijgen, zonder dat een ingrijpende reorganisatie noodzakelijk is. Door vanuit een krachtige structuur een praktische toepassing te vinden voor de eigen problematiek, kan een organisatie rendement halen uit de methodische aanpak die met FSM is vastgelegd.

Описание: Research into the mechanisms and the morality of Athenian hegemony is now perhaps livelier than ever. Of particular importance are the methods by which Athens drew money from the Aegean world with which to fund a vast fleet, to facilitate her own demokratia and to create ambitious public buildings still visible today. This collection of new studies, through its emphasis on how Athens raised revenue for its hegemonic ambitions, sheds light on more familiar questions: How oppressive, or otherwise, was Athens to fellow- Greeks and how did her demands vary over time? Contributors here suggest that Athens may have exercised hegemonic ambitions for longer than usually thought, applying greater experience, and more sensitivity to individual communities.
