6/25/2023 0 Comments I claudius gravesRobert Graves served in combat in World War I and was gravely wounded at the Battle of the Somme. Graves is best known for his historical novels, which include I, Claudius, Claudius, the God, The Golden Fleece, King Jesus, and Count Belisarius. In addition to novels and poetry, he published groundbreaking analysis of Greek mythology, as well as memoir. He was an extremely prolific writer, who published more than 140 novels and collections of poetry. Robert Graves (1895-1985) was an English novelist, poet, and translator of Classical Greek and Roman literature, and one of the most prominent English writers of the 20th century. A best-selling novel and one of Graves’ most successful, I, Claudius has been adapted to television, film, theatre, and audio. Weaving important themes throughout about the nature of freedom and safety possible in a safety and a monarchy, Graves’ Claudius is both more effective and more tragic than history typically remembers him. Yet, on the death of Caligula, Claudius finds himself next in line for the throne, and must stay alive as well as keep control.ĭrawing on the histories of Plutarch, Suetonius, and Gaius Cornelius Tacitus, noted historian and classicist Robert Graves tells the story of the much-maligned Emperor Claudius with both skill and compassion. Once a rather bookish young man with a limp and a stammer, a man who spent most of his time trying to stay away from the danger and risk of the line of ascension, Claudius seemed an unlikely candidate for Emperor. During twelve years of continuous campaigns, Alexander conquered an empire that stretched from the shores of the Adriati. Enriched by the series' trademark comprehensive maps, illustrations, and annotations, and with contributions from the preeminent classical scholars of today, The Landmark Arrian: The Campaigns of Alexander is the definitive edition of this essential work of ancient history. The Landmark Arrian: The Campaigns of Alexander the Great (Landmark (Anchor Books)) Annotated 9781400079674. This vivid and engaging new translation of Arrian will fascinate readers who are interested in classical studies, the history of warfare, and the origins of East-West tensions still swirling in Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan today. Arrian, himself a military commander, combines his firsthand experience of battle with material from Ptolemy's memoirs and other ancient sources to compose a singular portrait of Alexander. After twelve years of hard-fought campaigns, Alexander the Great controlled a vast empire that was bordered by the Adriatic sea to the west and modern-day India to the east. Arrian's Campaigns of Alexander, widely considered the most authoritative history of the brilliant leader's great conquests, is the latest addition to the acclaimed Landmark series. 6/24/2023 0 Comments Nudes by Sarah RobinsonHowever, their relationship crashes because of one scandal: A leaked photo of Aria’s naked body.

Whatever it is, SCORE for another hit by Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy!! Contains hot but hilarious hockey players, puppy cuddling and a snarky pair of underwear.īAM! Another slam dunk… home run… touchdown. Do not read in a public place where loud laughter is inappropriate. Such as: Will the ceremony start on time, even though someone got grandma drunk?

The children come up with the most amusing and exciting games when she’s there with them. The neighbours, young and old, quickly grow fond of her because of this. Despite her unique circumstances, Momo would be just like any other child, except for the effect that her presence seems to have on others: the way she listens brings out the best of anyone she listens to. She quickly finds her new “home” inside the ruins of an old amphitheatre, and that’s how the story begins. Momo is a little girl with no past, no parents, no age, and no home, who ends up settling in a poor neighbourhood in the outskirts of an unnamed city. I say this because I’ve noticed Ende’s books tend to be seen as just “children’s books”, when most of them have many levels -there’s one level for children, and then there’s also one for each of the different levels of understanding from an adult point of view. Editor’s note: Nieve is an avid reader, writer and artist who will be selecting interesting books to review and discuss monthly.įor those who haven’t read Momo, by the author of The Neverending Story, I would strongly recommend it, either as a summer book, or for any time of year… or any time of life. 6/24/2023 0 Comments War storm bookfor all will be tested, but not all will survive.
