It represents a peculiar text in Ge'ez historiography both because of its narrative structure and the underlying sources used by the chronicler. Numerous Arabisms appear in the text, which eventually suggest that the Chronicle was written by a person with an outstanding knowledge of Arabic, in 1561. The book presents a new critical edition based on all available manuscripts and provides some detailed introductory notes and an English translation. The new edition yields philological findings concerning the Chronicle of King Galawdewos in particular and new inputs that call for re-editing the Ethiopian royal chronicles in general. It also adds valuable by now not recorded items for Ge'ez lexicography and corrects historical distortions resulted from the previous edition. Above all, the work provides a text-critically established edition of the Chronicle of King Galawdewos accompanied by an up-to-date concisely annotated translation, which offer new insights into the late medieval history and historiography of Ethiopia and the Horn of Africa."--Provided by the publisher. "This monograph marks 30 years of Nordic by telling the stories of 11 key projects without fuss or fog, focusing on how functionality drives form: the force of the simple. Our design captures this simplicity through stripped-back black and white diagrams which, displayed as sequences, lay bare each project. This visual language also emphasises the commonality of approach to all works, whether at the scale of a village, an airport or a single home. We use paperstock with a contrasting matt[e] and gloss side to intersperse this diagrammatic black and white storytelling with colourful photography of completed architecture. This sets a rhythm for the pages of the collection as a whole while works are also introduced in the order of their distance from Nordic's home in the centre of Oslo. The book is Swiss-bound, revealing both the construction and the use of "aurora green" thread, an energetic flash of nordic colour. The black card and binding cloth cover celebrates powerful simplicity with embossed silhouettes of the signature forms from the 11 works contained and explained within."--Book designer's website "What is the task of architecture? In The Force of the Simple, eleven of the projects Nordic - Office of Architecture has been involved in over the past thirty years are presented. Via text and images, we become involved in each project's unique needs and see how the architects have solved them. The eleven projects are very different in scope and geographical location, but all illustrate Nordic's method and core values. 'We wanted to tell these stories about our projects without fuss or fog, focusing on their functionality to explain why they look the way that they do. Throughout, our intent has been to demonstrate the power - and the poetry - of the clear idea: the force of the simple'"--English translation of the publisher's website O presente livro ajuda-nos a encontrar em todas essas situaes uma soluo e um sentido. A orao que nos leva a um abandono amoroso nos braos de Deus torna-se para ns um verdadeiro blsamo: que paz nos d sentir que estamos no regao de um Pai que tudo sabe e tudo pode e nos ama mais que todos os pais e mes do mundo juntos podem amar a um nico filho...! A obra que agora se publica nos leva a introduzir-nos como um cateter no mais ntimo do nosso ser para, atravs de uma profunda endoscopia, dar ao Esprito Santo a oportunidade de nos curar de todas as doenas do corpo e da alma: a orao de cura um dos seus captulos mais significativos, e nele encontraremos esperana e alvio. Assim a nossa vida se converter num remanso de paz e serenidade. Deus e o sentido da vida aborda o que h de mais fundamental na existncia humana: o seu sentido. Uma vida sem sentido, diz o autor, como um navio fantasma que navega sem rumo e sem direo, fadado a ficar deriva, ao sabor de qualquer vento ou mar, e a ser engolido, no fim, pelas implacveis ondas do mar. Mas os seus passageiros, que desconhecem o sentido da sua vida e da sua morte - apesar de tentarem esquecer o destino fatal da sua viagem, vivendo superficialmente - sentem a angstia e a depresso de quem est condenado a um fim dramtico. Na leitura destas pginas, voc ir tomando conscincia de algo que j sabia: que viver sem sentido , simplesmente, enveredar-se para uma morte sem futuro. "This is the inside story of Street Art - a brutal and revealing account of what happens when fame, money and vandalism collide. It follows an eccentric Los Angeles based French shop-keeper turned amateur film-maker as he attempts to capture many of the world's most infamous vandals on camera, only to have British stencil artist Banksy turn the camcorder back on its owner with wildly unexpected results. This fascinating study of low-level criminality, comradeship, and incompetence is modern-day fairytale ... with bolt cutters." -- Back of container Edited and richly annotated by Lt Cdr Andrew David, this volume offers for the first time a complete transcript of the handwritten journal kept by William Broughton on his voyage to the North Pacific (1795-1798), together with letters and the journal of his journey across Mexico (1793). Aiming to complete the work left unfinished by Cook's third voyage, Broughton surveyed the coasts of Japan, the Kurile Islands, Sakhalin and Korea, despite being wrecked on an uncharted reef off the Ryukyu Islands in the middle of the mission How will AI evolve and what major innovations are on the horizon?
