Название: Art of Gary Gianni for George R. R. Martin`s Seven Kingdoms ISBN: 1640410228 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781640410220 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 45930.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book contains all of Gary Gianni's artwork for George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series. Over 300 pages of beautifully illustrated scenes from the five novels in the series--A Game of Thrones, A Clash of Kings, A Storm of Swords, A Feast For Crows and A Dance With Dragons--are featured alongside passages from the books themselves. Also included are illustrations from the two prequels of the series, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and Fire and Blood. All together, the paintings and hundreds of drawings in pencil and pen-and-ink provide a unique view of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros as seen through the eyes of the award-winning illustrator. Describing Gianni's artwork, George R.R. Martin says it's "as if I am looking through a window into Westeros, that I am there with Tyrion and Daenerys, with Ned and Arya, with Dunk and Egg."
All of Gary Gianni's previously shown pencil sketches and paintings have been tightened up and polished for this collection, making them appear as new works. In addition, over 35 pencil drawings appear for the first time. The artist draws on his longtime experience in comics and illustration to offer a unique perspective into Martin's universe.
The book also includes an introduction by Cullen Murphy, who discusses the art of illustration and adds context to the pictures by providing an overview of Gianni's career. Notes from the artist reveal insight concerning his methods and the creative process of working with Martin, a relationship that has spanned five years to date.

Описание: Un monello che fa piangere chi gli strappa i capelli e un principe acido, cattivo e poco furbo sono i due antagonisti di questo memorabile romanzo nato nei primi anni '50. La posta in gioco dello scontro fra Cipollino e Limone è niente meno che la libertà di un popolo intero, composto di pomodori, ciliegie, fagiolini e vecchie talpe. La trama è lineare: i buoni, vessati dal tiranno e oppressi da regole insensate, guidati dal giovane Cipollino riusciranno a sconfiggere i cattivi a colpi di scherzi, beffe e piani geniali, senza mai ricorrere alla violenza. Ma l'intento di Gianni Rodari non è mettere in scena una lotta tra il male e il bene: è quello di dimostrare che una società giusta è possibile, auspicabile e anche più divertente per tutti. Età di lettura: da 7 anni.

Описание: The basis for the FX true crime series American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace, from creator Ryan Murphy and starring Edgar Ramirez, Penelope Cruz, Darren Criss, and Ricky Martin Two months before Gianni Versace was murdered on the steps of his Miami Beach mansion by Andrew Cunanan, award-winning journalist Maureen Orth was investigating a major story on the serial killer for Vanity Fair. Culled from interviews with more than four hundred people and insights from thousands of pages of police reports, Orth tells the complete story of Cunanan, his unwitting victims, and the moneyed, hedonistic world in which they lived . . . and died. In fascinating detail, she reveals how Cunanan met his superstar victim, why police and the FBI repeatedly failed to catch Cunanan, and why other victims' families stonewalled the investigation, as well as the controversial findings of the Versace autopsy report. Here is a gripping odyssey that races across America--from California's wealthy gay underworld to modest Midwestern homes of families mourning the loss of their sons to South Beach and its unapologetic decadence. Vulgar Favors is at once a masterwork of investigative journalism and a riveting account of a sociopath, his crimes, and the mysteries he left along the way. Praise for Vulgar Favors " An] exhaustive deconstruction of Andrew Cunanan's five murders . . . The breadth and thoroughness of Orth's research are often staggering."--The New York Times "Fascinating . . . ripe with chilling detail . . . paints a disturbing picture."--Entertainment Weekly "A fascinatingly detailed account."--USA Today "It will hook you from the first page and never let you go."--San Francisco Chronicle "Vulgar Favors by Maureen Orth might be called the complete Cunanan. . . . She has] an indefatigable hunger to know everything."--Chicago Tribune "A detailed page-turner."--St. Paul Pioneer Press "An exceptionally good account of suspected serial killer Andrew Cunanan's spree in 1997 . . . Orth tells this twisted story with grace and courage."--Fort Worth Star-Telegram "Orth has an inviting, readable style."--Oakland Tribune "The definitive book on the July 15, 1997 murder of Versace."--Sun-Sentinel "An exhilarating journalistic chronicle of Cunanan's crime and flight . . . The book is charged with adrenaline and the pages just seem to turn themselves."--Lesbian and Gay New York

A major, new, and comprehensive look at six decades of macroeconomic policies across the region
What went wrong with the economic development of Latin America over the past half-century? Along with periods of poor economic performance, the region’s countries have been plagued by a wide variety of economic crises. This major new work brings together dozens of leading economists to explore the economic performance of the ten largest countries in South America and of Mexico. Together they advance the fundamental hypothesis that, despite different manifestations, these crises all have been the result of poorly designed or poorly implemented fiscal and monetary policies.
Each country is treated in its own section of the book, with a lead chapter presenting a comprehensive database of the country’s fiscal, monetary, and economic data from 1960 to 2017. The chapters are drawn from one-day academic conferences—hosted in all but one case, in the focus country—with participants including noted economists and former leading policy makers. Cowritten with Nobel Prize winner Thomas J. Sargent, the editors’ introduction provides a conceptual framework for analyzing fiscal and monetary policy in countries around the world, particularly those less developed. A final chapter draws conclusions and suggests directions for further research.
A vital resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students of economics and for economic researchers and policy makers, A Monetary and Fiscal History of Latin America, 1960–2017 goes further than any book in stressing both the singularities and the similarities of the economic histories of Latin America’s largest countries.

Описание: The book contains the first annotated English translation of the Correct Explanation of the Tang “Stele Eulogy on the Luminous Teaching” (1644) by the Jesuit Manuel Dias Jr. and other late Ming Chinese Christian sources interpreting the “venerable ancestor” of the Jesuit mission, namely, the mission of the Church of the East in Tang China. Based on this documentation, the book reconstructs the process of “appropriation” by Jesuit missionaries and their Chinese converts of ancient traces of Christianity that were discovered in China in the first half of the seventeenth century, such as the Xi’an stele (781) and other Christian relics
