The Book of Lasts: The Stories Behind the Endings That Changed the World (buecher.de - (Teil1)) |  Produktbeschreibung (21357653): Do you know who was the last Roman Emperor? Billy the Kid´s last victim? Or the Beatles´ last No. 1 hit. At last! A definitive look at the endings that have left their mark on our world today. Everybody knows who was the first man on the moon; but who was the last? We know the dodo is extinct, but where was the last one seen - and how did it die? From the last of the Aztecs to the last days of the Berlin wall, The Book Of Lasts is a look at the triumphant conclusions and tragic endings of history - what ended with a bang and what sidled out with a whimper. People, animals, events and practices are all given their place as the final instances of something occurring, from those that changed the face of society to those that were hardly noticed until it was all over. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - (Teil1) ansehen oder für EUR 22.95 bestellen! |

The Sky Clears: Poetry of the American Indians (buecher.de - (Teil2)) | | Produktbeschreibung (22063973): From the totem-pole makers of the Northwest to the hunters of the eastern woodlands, from the horse nations of the plains to the desert dwellers of the Southwest and the Mayas and Aztecs of ancient Mexico--from some forty tribal groups--A. Grove Day has collected examples of traditional American Indian verse. ´´This is a book to be read for pleasure,´´ he writes; its purpose is ´´to show the variety and excellence of many kinds of authentic Indian poetry.´´ Set in their cultural context, the selections also illustrate the major role, practical as well as aesthetic, that poetry played in the lives of Native American peoples. The translations are those of professional students of Indian languages who were also endowed with poetic powers of their own: people such as Franz Boas, Natalie Curtis, Frances Densmore, Washington Matthews, Herbert J. Spinden. | | >>> Jetzt bei buecher.de - (Teil2) ansehen oder für EUR 18.95 bestellen! |
