And Finally...
And Finally... is the injection of cheer we all need in these rather depressing times. This heart-warming book takes a look at the very best '...and finally' segments of the news - those funny, silly and often eccentric stories the newsreaders save until the end of the programme, to leave on a high note."A marvellous little feel-good book that makes a charming gift" - Platinum MagazineAuthor and journalist Ryan Herman has selected the finest moments of serendipity, the astounding acts of kindness and generosity, the outrageous ideas come to life and the downright silly happenings and brought them together in this book.The tales range from the drunken mice causing havoc but ultimately endearing themselves to the workers at a sherry distillery in Spain; the bride-to-be and huge Swiftie who invited Taylor Swift to her wedding and got the surprise of her lifetime when Taylor flew to Ohio to attend her bridal shower; the owner of a riding school for disabled children who raised tens of thousands of pounds after Lucian Freud popped into one of her amateur horse-sketching classes and left his drawing behind, and Stephanie, the child refugee who founded a female-run software company in 1960s Britain, who was routinely faced with sexism when selling her products. When she posed as 'Steve' when writing to software companies her business suddenly took off and when she later sold her business, she made 70 of her employees millionaires.This is a feel-good book for dark times - packed with uplifting human interest stories, people (and a few animals) doing extraordinary things, idiosyncratic slices of life and simple fun tales. There is a quote in the book from filmmaker Ali Catterall that sums it up best of all. He says, "I think we need stories that shake us out of our complacency [...] You can find magic in a dustbin. It depends where and how you look."
The Sanctuary of Hermes and Aphrodite at Syme Viannou VII, Vol. 2
New insights from the archaeology and pottery of the sanctuary of Hermes and Aphrodite at Syme Viannou, Crete The Sanctuary of Hermes and Aphrodite at Syme Viannou VII: The Greek and Roman Pottery presents in two volumes the Greek and Roman pottery recovered from the excavation of the sanctuary of Syme Viannou, one of the most long-lived and important cult sites of ancient Crete and the Aegean. The site, which is known as the Cretan Delphi, was dedicated to Hermes and Aphrodite for much of its history. The present study analyzes and catalogs 865 pieces, dating from across the early first millennium BCE to the mid-first millennium CE. Kotsonas integrates traditional typological and chronological inquiries with contextual considerations, macroscopic and petrographic analyses of ceramic fabrics, and quantitative studies. The resulting work provides detailed documentation of the pottery from Syme Viannou and explores its ritual and other roles within the diachronic panorama of cultic and other activities at the site. It also supports a broader understanding of the role of ceramics in sanctuary contexts by introducing systematically comparative perspectives on the evidence of pottery from other Cretan and Greek sanctuaries. Volume 2 presents synthetic studies of the material, exploring the use of different ceramic fabrics, the relationship between the form and function of the vessels, and the place of ceramic items in the cultic practice and daily life at the sanctuary in Greek and Roman antiquity.
Of Indian Carpets and Carpetwallahs
Carpets adorn living spaces across the length and breadth of the country and are appreciated for many qualities-their design, their colours, their 'feel'-but rarely their history. Yet, each carpet has a story hidden within its intricate details, and the value of a carpet is not only determined by what it costs, or by its technical and aesthetic qualities, but also by the story it carries. Of Indian Carpets and Carpetwallahs: An Appreciation tells the stories of Indian carpets by delving into the histories of an assortment of unique carpets-that of delicate Kashmiri carpets, a Herati-inspired carpet made in Amritsar, and even one made in Rampur jail-collected by Norwegian diplomat Jon Westborg over his lifetime. Of Indian Carpets and Carpetwallahs: An Appreciation melds history, memory, and aesthetics beautifully to create a complete and detailed picture of the Indian carpet-making tradition.

Toy Soldiers
Toy soldiers have played a significant role in the history of toys since the days of ancient Egypt, reflecting real-world realities of the times in which they were produced. Written as a primer for toy soldier collectors, both new and experienced, as well as for those wishing to relive childhood memories, this highly illustrated volume conveys the reader from the early origins of toy soldiers to the so-called 'golden age' of the 1930s, then through the austerity of World War II and early post-war years to the plastic revolution of the 1960s. It moves on to look at the reintroduction of the traditional toy soldier in the 1980s and 90s and the emergence of the bespoke military miniature and commercial connoisseur ranges by the likes of King & Country, First Legion and similar makers, before ending with a brief examination of the future of the toy soldier. Brief histories of the major toy soldier makers both past and present are included, and most of their most prominent products are examined and evaluated in some detail. Useful hints on identifying and buying toy soldiers, as well as practical information on the storage and display of your toy soldier collection, how to start a collection and where to buy toy soldiers are also included in this meticulously researched work.

Covering the period 1390-1488, MacKay publishes the second portion of the Lord Stewartby Collection, the most important collection of Scottish coins ever put together by a private individual. Shortly before his death in March 2018, the collection was gifted to The Hunterian at the University of Glasgow.

He was a highly regarded numismatist and the foremost scholar of Scottish coins in his generation. This exceptional collection has a depth and range across all metals and denominations which make it an important academic resource for researchers, whether numismatists or historians, or as a reference point for collectors.

Mastering the Art of Performance
Performance art is a dynamic and captivating form of artistic expression that challenges traditional boundaries of visual arts, theater, and dance. In this subchapter, we will explore the definition and evolution of performance art, shedding light on its historical roots and its significance in contemporary society. Designed specifically for students in the field of Performance Studies, this chapter aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the art form and its multifaceted nature.First and foremost, it is crucial to establish a clear definition of performance art. Unlike traditional art forms, performance art is ephemeral, existing only in the moment of its creation. It combines elements of visual art, music, dance, theater, and other artistic disciplines to convey a concept or provoke an emotional response. Performance art often blurs the line between the artist and the audience, encouraging viewer participation and interaction.The evolution of performance art can be traced back to the early 20th century, where artists began experimenting with unconventional ways of expressing themselves. One of the pioneers of performance art was the Futurist movement, which emerged in Italy in the early 1900s. Futurists embraced technology and the industrial age, incorporating elements of movement, sound, and light into their performances.In the mid-20th century, performance art gained momentum with the emergence of the Fluxus movement. Fluxus artists rejected the notion of art as a commodity and sought to break down the boundaries between art and everyday life. Their performances often involved absurd and humorous actions, challenging the traditional notions of what constitutes art.Performance art reached its zenith in the 1960s and 1970s, with artists like Marina Abramovic, Yoko Ono, and Joseph Beuys pushing the boundaries of the art form. Abramovic, known for her endurance-based performances, explored the limits of the human body and the power of vulnerability. Ono's "Cut Piece" invited audience members to participate by cutting off pieces of her clothing, questioning the power dynamics between artist and spectator.In recent years, performance art has continued to evolve and adapt to the changing social and political landscape. Artists are increasingly using the medium to address issues such as gender, race, and identity, while also incorporating digital technologies into their performances.Studying performance art provides students with a unique perspective on the power of creativity and its ability to challenge societal norms. By examining the history and evolution of performance art, students gain a deeper understanding of the artistic process and the role of the audience in shaping the meaning of a performance
