Описание: In this engaging narrative, Larry Witham transports us to Piero's tumultuous age, a world of princes and popes, soldiers and schisms. Piero's Light also reveals how he was part of the philosophical revival of Platonism, an ancient worldview that would shape art, religion, and science's transition toward modernity. Just sixteen of Piero's paintings survive, but these images and his writings would fuel some of the greatest art historical debates of all time Through Witham's wide research, Piero emerges as a figure who marks a turning point in Western culture. Our past understanding of faith, beauty, and knowledge has been radically altered by a secular age, and the story of Piero helps us understand how this has taken place. The search for Piero has continued among both intrepid scholars and art lovers of all kinds, and it is no wonder: few artists in history take us as deeply into the intellectual excitement of the Renaissance as Piero della Francesca.

Описание: Anytime is a tough time to be a young person, but this time in history is a real sh%t show. Young people are coming of age in a time of open racism, hate, and xenophobia in the streets and from our leaders. Meanwhile, they are trying to navigate sex, their parents, their connection to their culture, and a world that just doesn't seem to take them seriously. "22 Under 22" is an anthology of fiction, essay, and poetry by 22 people under the age of 22 speaking up about what they believe, what they want, and what keeps them going. In other words, what's on their minds?
