From this the author has brought back to life again this magnificent set of images. - Coloured reproductions of each image, which were intended to help us contemplate the significance of the zodiac energies, are reproduced here in nearly A4 size - An insightful commentary on these images, which reveal how the significance of the zodiac for the soul today, comes from its influence in ancient times or in future Ages - All the images from his three other zodiac designs are also included here, with an explanation - Rudolf Steiner's profound verses, the Twelve Moods, are presented in a new translation with a commentary, revealing they are meditations on what our zodiac sign or 'sun-sign' means to us. Included are several essays on related astrological themes: - What kind of zodiac underlies the Zodiac Ages, each lasting 2,160 years, the basis of the anthroposophical view of history? - Examples of how Rudolf Steiner used and validated the so-called Tropical Zodiac, used in drawing up horoscopes. 148 pages in near A4 size, with 51 pages of graphics.

From an entomologist comes a buzz-worthy exploration of the many ways insects have affected human society, history and culture. Illustrations. From entomologist Barrett Klein comes a buzz-worthy exploration of the many ways insects have affected human society, history, and culture Insects surround us. They fuel life on Earth through their roles as pollinators, predators, and prey, but rarely do we consider the outsize influence they have had on our culture and civilization. Their anatomy and habits inform how we live, work, create art, and innovate. Featuring nearly 250 color imagesfrom ancient etchings to avant-garde art, from bug-based meals to haute coutureThe Insect Epiphany proves that our world would look very different without insects, not just because they are crucial to our ecosystems, but because they have shaped and inspired so many aspects of what makes us human.

'This eye-opening and frequently jaw-dropping history of the phenomenon opens up a set of fascinating peepholes on to a now vanished world' Spectator Cartomania was a photographic phenomenon that seized the public imagination at the beginning of the 1860s. Small portraits, dubbed cartes de visite, were avidly exchanged with friends and family, quickly earning a reputation as 'the paper currency of social intercourse'. Compiled into albums and prominently displayed in the home to peruse, assess and discuss, this first explosion of commercial portraiture proved a wildly popular craze, particularly once celebrities embraced the new format. Paul Frecker's lavishly illustrated book brings fresh insight into the careers of the enterprising men and women who established studios and into the lives of those who passed before their cameras. With unparalleled depth of research and evocative prose, he vividly brings to life the photographers and many of their subjects. From reigning queens and visiting sultans to grieving mothers and nefarious criminals, all life lies within. Whether dressed in their best or in fancy dress, cartomania's devotees and their often extraordinary stories are laid bare in this fascinating view of mid-Victorian society. Autorid: Paul Frecker
