For most of human history, we were rural folk. Our daily lives were bound up with working the land, living within the rhythm of the seasons. And yet rural life is oddly invisible our historical records. The daily routine of the peasant, the farmer or the craftsperson could never compete with the glamour of city life, war and royal drama. Lives went unrecorded, stories untold. There is, though, one way in which we can learn about our rural past. The things we have left behind provide a connection that no document can match; physical artefacts are touchstones that breathe life into its history.

Перфекционист, Самоотверженный помощник, Звезда на сцене, Чувствительный индивидуалист, Наблюдательный мыслитель, Преданный лояолист, Вечный ребенок, Могущественный бунтарь, Отстраненный миротворец.

Bronislaw Malinowski's seminal work, Sex and Repression in Savage Society, delves into the intricate dynamics of sexuality and societal control within primitive cultures. Published in 1927, this ethnographic study challenges prevailing Victorian notions of sexuality and sheds light on the nuanced ways in which indigenous societies navigate and regulate sexual behaviors. Malinowski's immersive fieldwork in the Trobriand Islands enables him to provide a rich anthropological account, exploring the role of rituals, customs, and taboos in shaping sexual practices.

Esistono luoghi in cui non sembra vivere nessuno. Strade solitarie su cui muovono i passi sparuti camminatori, case centenarie in cui i silenzi sono rotti solo dal ronzio di qualche televisione lontana, antichi muretti a secco su cui camminano gatti randagi e lucertole più di quanto vi si appoggino mani e schiene umane, vecchie stufe a gas a riscaldare ampie stanze semivuote.

Wouldn’t it be great to just feel proud to be human? Not because you are a certain nationality or race or sex or because you have achieved something amazing. Just proud because you possess an amazing design. This book is a reminder of how important you are as a human being regardless of anything else about you. It is for those who are fed up with looking to politics and religion to find answers to our problems. It is for those who are discouraged by the failure of technology and education to make our world better. It turns out, human beings are designed to be just what this world needs.

Esta historia también empieza en un lugar de La Mancha. Allí, hace miles de años, surgió la primera sociedad hidráulica de nuestro continente. Mucho tiempo después la sed llenó esas tierras de vides, olivos y cereales. Entre ellos nació Virginia Mendoza, cuya historia personal y familiar está ligada sutil pero irremediablemente a la falta de agua.

UM UNS HERUM TOBT DER WAHNSiNN. ›Unter Wahnsinnigen‹ ist eine Zustandsbeschreibung unserer Zeit. Wie gerne würden wir leicht in Freund und Feind trennen, liken oder bashen. Aber so einfach ist der Mensch nicht. Schroeder folgt seinem Drang und seiner Neugier, das Böse zu verstehen. Auf dem Pfad des Bösen trifft er einen Holocaust-Leugner im Gefängnis, begegnet einem Sexualstraftäter auf seinem Weg nach draußen, erlebt einen Mann, der ein Doppelleben geführt hat, ist mit der Letzten Generation unterwegs und besucht NATO-Soldaten in Litauen, die sich auf den Krieg vorbereiten.

Александр Никонов - известный журналист и писатель, автор знаменитых бестселлеров Конец феминизма и Кризисы в истории цивилизации. Мастерски дискутируя на острые и неоднозначные темы, автор выступает в своих произведениях апологетом здравого смысла. Талантливые провокации Никонова возмущают, вызывают желание найти опровержение, оспорить, но самое главное – заставляют думать. Почему мы такие, какие есть. Практическая антропология, вне сомнений, вызовет негативную реакцию у многих представителей нашего "человейника". Но что есть книга, как ни своевременный толчок к тому, чтобы задуматься?

Authoritative and immediate, this is the classic account of the most powerful of the American Indian tribes. T. R. Fehrenbach traces the Comanches' rise to power, from their prehistoric origins to their domination of the high plains for more than a century until their demise in the face of Anglo-American expansion.

A Medieval Life offers a biography of one woman, a portrait of her world, and an introduction to historical method. Written in a clear and accessible style, it reworks a well-loved book to provide an entirely new resource for students, teachers, and general listeners. Like Cecilia Penifader, most people in the Middle Ages were peasants, humble people living socially below the knights, bishops, and kings who figure so large in history books. Judith M. Bennett shows that peasants, too, made history.

La grande histoire des croyances et des spiritualités des origines à nos jours : un voyage passionnant au cœur de ce que l’humanité a de plus sacré !

Who are we Indians? Where did we come from? To tell us the story of our ancestry, journalist Tony Joseph goes 65,000 years into the past–when a band of Homo sapiens first made their way from Africa into the Indian subcontinent. These were the First Indians. Citing recent DNA evidence, he traces the subsequent large migrations of modern humans into India–of a people related to early farmers of Iran who mixed with the First Indians at the latest between 5400 BCE and 3700 BCE and of the ‘Arya’ between 2000 BCE and 1500 BCE, among others.

Many of us know that the Moon pulls on our oceans, driving the tides, but did you know that it smells like gunpowder? Or that it was essential to the development of science and religion? Acclaimed journalist Rebecca Boyle takes listeners on a dazzling tour to reveal the intimate role that our 4.51-billion-year-old companion has played in our biological and cultural evolution.

La révolution néolithique qui a lieu entre -10 000 et – 5 000 avant notre ère en plusieurs endroits du globe, est le moment le plus décisif de l'histoire humaine. C'est le passage de la cueillette et de la chasse à l'invention de l'agriculture et de l'élevage. Jean-Paul Demoule présente ici les raisons climatiques, environnementales et culturelles de cette révolution. Des conséquences infinies. Ses conséquences sont multiples et nous les observons chaque jour : explosion démographique, migrations, sédentarisation, naissance des villes et de l'écriture, essor des violences entre communautés.

L'histoire de l'univers et de la vie - Un fascinant récit qui évoque l'histoire de l'univers, du monde, de la vie et de l'homme.

L'homme, la conscience et la culture. Les grandes étapes et les principes guidant cette longue évolution sont expliqués jusqu'à l'apparition de l'homme.

SIAMO INTRINSECAMENTE LEGATI. TUTTI. E NON È POSSIBILE TORNARE INDIETRO. Siamo più vicini o più lontani? La globalizzazione è agli sgoccioli o si è presa solo una pausa di riflessione e quel che accade in paesi all’apparenza distanti continua a ripercuotersi a cascata su tutti gli altri, in un effetto domino? Come si spiega altrimenti che la chiusura dei porti in Ucraina faccia aumentare il prezzo della carta in Italia e provochi sommosse in Sri Lanka. Che l’aumento della siccità in Sicilia modifichi la viticoltura in America.

Imagine you were transported back in time to Ancient Greece and you had to start a new life there. What would you see? How would the people around you think and believe? How would you fit in? Where would you live? What would you eat? What work would be available, and what help could you get if you got sick?

Deer have been an important part of the world that humans occupy for millennia. They're one of the only large animals that can thrive in our presence. In the twenty-first century, our relationship is full of contradictions: We hunt and protect them, we cull them from suburbs while making them an icon of wilderness, we see them both as victims and as pests. But there is no doubt that we have a connection to deer: in mythology and story, in ecosystems biological and digital, in cities and in forests.

Книга рассказывает о жизни людей в далекой середине XX века, о формировании увлекательной науки о мозге человека, о тех, кто в мимолетных встречах на научных форумах или в теснейших контактах повседневной работы обогатил своими мыслями и трудом изучение сложнейшего создания на нашей планете — мозга человека. В книге — о расшифровке законов активности здорового и больного мозга и о приложимости этих законов не только в медицине, но и к событиям социального порядка государственного масштаба.

È noto che il mondo sta cambiando. Molto, quasi tutto ci porta a prevedere la fine della vita per come ora la conosciamo sulla Terra. La catastrofe (dal greco katastrophé, ‘rovesciamento’) che il genere umano sperimenta e sperimenterà non è però la prima: tutto quel che conosciamo è nato da una catastrofe, si è andato modificando e assestando attraverso catastrofi, e con una catastrofe andrà a terminare – o a proseguire, ma in modo radicalmente diverso.
