【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Passage to America Celebrated European Visitors in Search of the American Adventure【電子書籍】[ Gloria De?k ]

＜p＞America was a source of fascination to Europeans arriving there during the course of the nineteenth century. At first glance, the New World was very similar to the societies they left behind in their native countries, but in many aspects of politics, culture and society, the American experience was vastly different - almost unrecognisably so - from Old World Europe. Europeans were astounded that America could survive without a monarch, a standing army and the hierarchical society which still dominated Europe. Some travellers, such as the actress Fanny Kemble, were truly convinced America would eventually revert to a monarchy; others, such as Frances Wright and even Oscar Wilde, took their opinions further, and attempted to fix aspects of America - described in 1827 by the young Scottish captain Basil Hall, as 'one of England's "occasional failures"'. Many prominent visitors to the United States recorded their responses to this emerging society in their diaries, letters and journals; and many of them, like the fulminating Frances Trollope, were brutally and offensively honest in their accounts of the New World.＜br /＞ They provide an insight into an America which is barely recognizable today whilst their writings set down a diverse and lively assortment of personal travel accounts. This book compares the impressions of a group of discerning and prominent Europeans from the cultural sphere - from the writers Charles Dickens, William Makepeace Thackeray and Oscar Wilde to luminaries of music and theatre such as Tchaikovsky and Fanny Kemble. Their reactions to the New World are as revealing of the European and American worlds as they are colourful and varied, providing a unique insight into the experiences of nineteenth century travelers to America.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Humphry Repton (1752?1818) ambitiously styled himself Capability Brown's successor: the century's next great improver of landed property. With his rare combinations of skills ? he was a talented topographical sketcher with an excellent knowledge of farming ? over thirty years Repton amassed an incredible four hundred commissions, ingratiating himself with the aristocracy and raising the status of his adopted profession. His famous Red Books, illustrated to help clients visualize the potential of their estates, also did their part to encourage the appreciation of landscape aesthetics. With colourful illustrations and detailed site investigations, this book traces Repton's landscape designs from Picturesque wildernesses like Blaise Castle to the progressive Gardenesque style of Wanstead House in Greater London. It is both a perfect visitor's guide to the gardens and an introduction to the theory of Repton's work.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

It is true that Oxford is a world to itself, a village where everyone stops in the Broad or the High to exchange local gossip...

But encounters in the street are as likely to grapplings with politics (local, national and international) as exchanges about a point of scholarly detail...

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Archaeology of Mediterranean Placemaking Butrint and the Global Heritage Industry【電子書籍】[ Dr Richard Hodges ]

＜p＞Butrint has been one of the largest archaeological projects in the Mediterranean over the last two decades. Major excavations and a multi-volume series of accompanying scientific publications have made this a key site for our developing understanding of the Roman and Medieval Mediterranean. Through this set of interwoven reflections about the archaeology and cultural heritage history of his twenty-year odyssey in south-west Albania, Richard Hodges considers how the Butrint Foundation protected and enhanced Butrint's spirit of place for future generations.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Hodges reviews Virgil's long influence on Butrint and how its topographic archaeology has now helped to invent a new narrative and identity. He then describes the struggle of placemaking in Albania during the early post-communist era, and finally asks, in the light of the Butrint Foundation's experience, who matters in the shaping of a place ? international regulations, the nation, the archaeologist, the visitor, the local community or some combination of all of these stakeholders? With appropriate maps and photographs, this book aims to offer an unusual but important new direction for archaeology in the Mediterranean. It should be essential reading for archaeologists, classical historians, medievalists, cultural heritage specialists, tourism specialists as well as those interested in the Mediterranean's past and future.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Architecture of the Universe and the Journey of Consciousness【電子書籍】[ JIN OH KWON ]

＜p＞＜strong＞A Description of the Text＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞This work is an expansive and luminous inquiry into the fundamental nature of reality, consciousness, and our place within the cosmos. It is not merely a book, but an experiential journeyーa meticulously woven tapestry that threads together the precise language of theoretical physics, the profound insights of Eastern and Western philosophy, and the raw, intimate truths of human existence.＜/p＞ ＜p＞At its heart, it proposes a radical yet serene paradigm: that the universe is not a place we inhabit, but a conscious process that ＜em＞inhabits us＜/em＞. We are not isolated souls navigating a foreign cosmos, but temporary, localized expressions of the cosmos itselfー"windows" through which reality observes and understands its own boundless depths. Through the elegant lens of "dimensions" redefined as stages of expressive freedom, the text reframes a human life from a linear story of success and failure into a multidimensional experiment in conscious observation.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It guides the reader from the solid world of form and achievement, through the shimmering forests of untaken paths and quantum possibility, to the silent, integrating frontier where the observer and the observed become one. Here, death is reimagined not as a terrifying annihilation, but as a gentle release of focusーthe soft expansion of a single breath back into the infinite atmosphere of being. The concept of God is distilled from a distant deity into the very architecture of existence: the logical, beautiful, and necessary structure that allows anything to be.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This is philosophy that breathes, science that wonders, and spirituality grounded in the immediacy of perception. It is a profound guide for anyone who has ever questioned the meaning of their struggles, the finality of death, or the nature of their own awareness. Ultimately, it offers a transformative and deeply comforting realization: that you are already home. You are not a visitor to the universe. You are the universe, momentarily and wonderfully, knowing itself.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Roads Less Travelled【電子書籍】[ Max Nabati ]

＜p＞Embark on an extraordinary solo odyssey through the heart of Iran with "Roads Less Travelled: A 15000 km Adventure in Camping and Exploration" by Max (Shahrooz) Nabati. Published in 2018, this captivating travelogue shatters common misconceptions about Iran, inviting readers to discover a land of profound history, warm hospitality, and breathtaking landscapes often overlooked by mainstream tourism. Nabati, a seasoned traveler who has clocked over 100,000 km across the country without incident, passionately argues that Iran is not only safe but also an untapped gem waiting to be explored before the crowds arrive. Drawing from his personal experiences, he highlights the nation's ancient heritage, stunning architecture, diverse handicrafts, delectable home-made cuisine, and authentic cultural encounters that set it apart from more commercialized destinations.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Nabati emphasizes the friendliness of locals, the richness of Persian history spanning millennia, and the visual splendor of sites that blend natural beauty with human ingenuity. He urges travelers to venture beyond the headlines, promising an experience filled with genuine interactions and sensory delights, from savoring traditional dishes to acquiring unique souvenirs.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Preparation forms a key pillar of Nabati's narrative, offering practical insights into his resourceful approach to budget-friendly adventuring. Unable to access caravans or motorhomes in Iran, he ingeniously transforms a humble SAIPA Pride sedanーthe country's cheapest carーinto a semi-camper. By removing seats and installing reinforced fiberboards topped with an inflatable mattress, he creates a mobile home complete with storage for dry food, tools, water reserves, and essentials like a laptop hidden for security. The trunk houses a polystyrene fridge, tent, gas burner, barbecue gear, clothing, and spare tires, ensuring self-sufficiency on long hauls. His photography setup is equally innovative: armed with a GoPro and a Samsung, Nabati aims to capture Iran's archaeological wonders in a fresh, action-camera perspectiveー a first-of-its-kind collection, as his research confirmed no prior comprehensive GoPro series existed for these sites.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The journey kicks off on May 1st, 2016, from Karaj, heading south toward Qom and beyond on a sunny day. Nabati's route in Circle 1 traces Tehran to Bam via the desert, with a return through Birjand and Tabas, weaving through freeways and oases. Early stops reveal Iran's infrastructural quirks, like the proliferation of "tourist complexes" that are essentially glorified gas stations with mosques and restaurants, lacking true visitor support.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Nabati's visit to Fin Garden exemplifies the book's blend of history and personal anecdote. This UNESCO-listed paradise, fed by the crystal-clear Soleimaniyeh spring from the Karkas mountains, showcases Safavid-era design rebuilt after earthquakes. He delves into its storied past: from Shah Abbas I's 17th-century pavilion with four-porch views and a watchtower for royal protection, to the tragic end of Shah Safi from excess, the Afghan invasion's devastation in 1722, Karim Khan Zand's additions, and Fath Ali Shah's Qajar renovations. The garden's architecture harmonizes water flow with human senses, symbolizing a logical bond between nature and perceptionーa theme echoing Nabati's own quest for immersive exploration.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Throughout, the narrative pulses with the thrill of the road.. Nabati's style is conversational and insightful, peppered with footnotes on historical figures and sites, making it accessible for armchair travelers and inspiring for adventurers. While detailing preparations and early legs, the book promises a tapestry of deserts, mountains, ruins, and encounters that reveal Iran's soulーsafe, affordable, and profoundly enriching. It's a call to action: pack your bags, modify your ride if needed, and hit Iran's vast expanses for an adventure that redefines wanderlust.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
