We Are Children Just The Same - Vedem, The Secret Magazine By The Boys of Terezin
8071511099
2000
Aventinum Fourth Edition Hardcover Fine in Very Good dust jacket
From 1942 to 1944, a group of 13 to 15 year old Jewish boys secretly produced a weekly magazine called "Vedem" (In the Land) at model concentration camp, Theresienstadt ("Terezin" in Czech). The writers, artists, and editors put together the issues and copied them by hand behind the blackout shades of their cellblock, which they affectionately called the "Republic of Shkid". The material was saved by one of the handful of boys who survived the Holocaust, but it was suppressed for fifty years in Czechoslovakia. Now, for the first time, these works are being published simultaneously in English, Czech, and German. This book is a poignant glimpse at the world of boys torn from their comfortable childhoods, separated from their families, ultimately to perish in the Nazi death machine. This copy is in fine condition with an unblemished hardcover having sharp edges and corners. The binding is tight and the pages are clean, crisp, unmarked and uncreased. The dust jacket exhibits a very good appearance with onlya bit of shelf or edge wear. This is a remarkable book and is in fine condition. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 199 pages

Philadelphia Museum of Art Hardcover As New in As New dust jacket
This book was published to accompany an exhibition of sculptures and drawings by two of history's greatest artists and examines the pivotal career of Auguste Rodin (1840 - 1917) and his acknowledged debt to Michelangelo (1475 - 1564). Essays by prominent scholars in italy and the United States discuss Rodin's early departures from idealized figures of traditional academic sculpture as well as his revelational 1876 trip to Italy, which was still alive with celebrations honoring the four hundredth anniversary of Michelangelo's birth. In Florence, Rodin visited the newly opened Casa Buonarroti and the Medici Chapel, where for the first time he was confronted with the full force of Michelangelo's work. Discussions of idividual works are accompanied by full-color illustrations. ; 1.05 x 8.67 x 6.17 Inches; 235 pages

The pages are clean, crisp, unmarked and uncreased with no underlining, highlighting, or notes. We package all books in custom cardboard book boxes for shipment and ship daily with tracking numbers.; "Beginning with Plato, philosophers have theorized about art, asking What is art? and How does art evoke emotion? Their answers, evolving from Plato's Idealism, have led to Nihilism. Art cannot be defined is the current answer to the first question, and the second has not been dealt with in any significant way since Langer's Feeling and Form in 1953. How art affects our emotions is considered not from a philosophical viewpoint but from an evolutionary standpoint. How are emotions aroused? is a biological question, and, as Aiken clarifies, it has been answered by neuroscientists. Art is usually thought of as pleasurable, but it can be ugly, disgusting, or fearsome. Aiken argues that fear, for example, can be elicited by simple shapes, lines, colors, or sound. Rather than just a source of pleasure, Aiken shows how art becomes a powerful tool of social and political manipulation. Through art, people can be conditioned to fear leaders, nations, gods, and ideas. A provocative work of interest to scholars and researchers as well as all people interested in art and human behavior."

This is a remarkable book and is in like new condition. ; THE NEXT CHAPTER IN THE EXTRAORDINARY HISTORY OF THE STAR WARS GALAXY BEGINS HERE. . . .
After a violent civil war and the devastation wrought by the now-fallen Darth Caedus, the Galactic Alliance is in crisis–and in need. From all corners, politicians, power brokers, and military leaders converge on Coruscant for a crucial summit to restore order, negotiate differences, and determine the future of their unified worlds. But even more critical, and far more uncertain, is the future of the Jedi.
In a shocking move, Chief of State Natasi Daala orders the arrest of Luke Skywalker for failing to prevent Jacen Solo’s turn to the dark side and his subsequent reign of terror as a Sith Lord. But it’s only the first blow in an anti-Jedi backlash fueled by a hostile government and suspicious public. When Jedi Knight Valin Horn, scion of a politically influential family, suffers a mysterious psychotic break and becomes a dangerous fugitive, the Jedi become the target of a media-driven witch hunt. Facing conviction on the damning charges, Luke must strike a bargain with the calculating Daala: his freedom in exchange for his exile from Coruscant and from the Jedi Order.
Though forbidden to intervene in Jedi affairs, Luke is determined to keep history from being repeated. With his son, Ben, at his side, Luke sets out to unravel the shocking truth behind Jacen Solo’s corruption and downfall. But the secrets he uncovers among the enigmatic Force mystics of the distant world Dorin may bring his quest–and life as he knows it–to a sudden end. And all the while, another Jedi Knight, consumed by the same madness as Valin Horn, is headed for Coruscant on a fearsome mission that could doom the Jedi Order . . . and devastate the entire galaxy.; 1.3 x 9.4 x 6.6 Inches; 318 pages

Healing and Transformation in Sandplay - Creative Processes Made Visible

The dust jacket is in very good condition with a bit of cover or edge wear. We package all books in custom cardboard book boxes and ship daily with tracking numbers.; "Sandplay is a powerful method of psychotherapy, based on practical, creative modelling - literally a "hands-on" approach to healing the whole person. Sandplay has both diagnostic and therapeutic value, and is efficacious for adults and children. Since there are no preconceived ideas about "art" in sand, there is a wonderful freedom and flow in using sand creatively. This book focuses on the process of sandplay and how it works. Ammann's account draws upon her wide knowledge of myth and folk tale, but remains a practical work, dealing systematically with the "how-to" details, the necessary role of sand pictures in enhancing the self-regulation of the psyche, the two routes from psyche to sand pictures, and the symbolic interpretation of spatial phenomena. Ammann illustrates these principles in several case histories. "Healing and Transformation in Sandplay" contains a plea to therapists to make greater use of sandplay, alongside classical dream analysis. As a means to liberate the forces of the brain's right hemisphere - the intuitive and bodily rather than logical or rational - sandplay activates deep layers of the unconscious in the service of healing and development, layers hard to reach with more verbal methods of therapy."; 9.50 X 6.50 X 0.75 inches; 140 pages
