Step into the mysterious world of ancient Egypt with Egyptian Magic, E. A. Wallis Budge’s classic exploration of the rituals, beliefs, and supernatural practices that shaped Egyptian life. Drawing on ancient texts and archaeological sources, Budge examines powerful divine names, magical words, amulets, spells, ceremonies, dreams, transformations, and the rites surrounding death and the afterlife.

Tra israeliani e palestinesi chi ha torto e chi ha ragione? Chi sono i "buoni" e chi i "cattivi"? Gli israeliani, che "da vittime si sono trasformati in carnefici"?

Era dai tempi di Atatürk che un uomo non dominava la Turchia così a lungo come Erdogan. Erdogan arrivò al potere nel 2002, un anno dopo la nascita del suo partito AKP, e fu Primo Ministro per undici anni, prima di diventare, ad agosto del 2014, il primo presidente a elezione diretta nella storia della nazione. In teoria, il suo sarebbe stato un ruolo prestigioso ma di cerimonia, con scarso potere politico concreto.
