The epic conclusion to the intensely romantic and beautifully written story that started in Divine Rivals.Two weeks have passed since Iris Winnow returned home bruised and heartbroken from the front, but the war is far from over. Roman is missing, and the city of Oath continues to dwell in a state of disbelief and ignorance. When Iris and Attie are given another chance to report on Dacre's movements, they both take the opportunity and head westward once more despite the danger, knowing it's only a matter of time before the conflict reaches a city that's unprepared and fracturing beneath the chancellor's reign.Since waking below in Dacre's realm, Roman cannot remember his past. But given the reassurance that his memories will return in time, Roman begins to write articles for Dacre, uncertain of his place in the greater scheme of the war. When a strange letter arrives by wardrobe door, Roman is first suspicious, then intrigued. As he strikes up a correspondence with his mysterious pen pal, Roman will soon have to make a decision: to stand with Dacre or betray the god who healed him. And as the days grow darker, inevitably drawing Roman and Iris closer together...the two of them will risk their very hearts and futures to change the tides of the war.

Bogen giver et overblik over Odsherreds bygningskultur og de udfordringer en fortsat udbygning med sommerhuse og servicebutikker giver for et af landets smukkeste landskaber. Det er en egn med lang arkitekturtradition, grundlagt på Vallekilde Højskole i 1880’erne med en ny æstetik, nationalromantikken, der udfordrede bjerget, Kunstakademiet. Ligesom Skagen tiltrak Rørvigs særlige lys kunstnere og efter dem fulgte velbeslåede landliggere, der med gode arkitekter bebyggede de første klitrækker. Det banede på godt og ondt vejen for kystnære bælter af sommerhuse. Næsten alle betydende danske arkitekter har bygget sommerhuse her. r

Hack Kampmann var 31 år, da han tegnede sit første hus, men allerede to år efter slog han sit navn fast blandt førende danske arkitekter. Det var med Provinsarkivet i Viborg (1889-1891), som gav ham det kongelige bygningsinspektorat over Nørrejylland. Han blev jydernes arkitekt med bygninger i hele det store distrikt med stribevis af hovedværker som Aarhus Toldbod, Aarhus Teater, Aalborg Posthus, Hornslet Ting- og Arresthus m.v. Ufattelige mængder af projekter, altid i høj kvalitet, udgik fra hans tegnestue. I København blev han husarkitekt for brygger Carl Jacobsen med udvidelsen af Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek som hovedværket. Kampmann var en ener. Hans enestående tegnetalent, de umådelige mængder af opmålinger og den flid, han i studieårene havde udvist betød, at han besad et formrepertoire, som uden videre kunne omsættes til konkret virkelighed. Hans sidste værk, Politigården i København, blev det mest omstridte. Kampmann døde midt i projekteringen i 1920, og en studerende, som undervejs i byggeprojektet fik sin afgang fra Kunstakademiet, Aage Rafn, stillede sig frem og tog æren af projektet. Dette forsøg på at tilrane sig en uretmæssig kunstnerisk ophavsret afvises i bogen.

Philip de Lange, en ung murermester, indvandrede til København fra Haag i 1729. Som en datidig gæstearbejder kom han for at deltage i genopbygningen af hovedstaden, der var blevet reduceret med en tredjedel efter den voldsomme brand i 1728. Der var brug for ham.Philip de Lange vendte aldrig tilbage til sit hjemland. Han blev i Danmark, hvor han hurtigt opbyggede en strålende karriere som en af tidens mest benyttede bygmestre. Det lykkedes ham at skabe gode forbindelser til især Søetaten og Admiralitetet, og det er da også hans bygninger på Holmen, som vi kender ham fra: Arsenalet, Hovedvagten, Mastekranen. Men Philip de Lange byggede også Asiatisk Kompagnis imposante hovedkvarter på Christianshavn foruden en stribe byhuse for borgerskabet og en enkelt herregård –Glorup på Fyn.Philip de Lange satte sit tydelige præg på den danske bygningskultur. Han bragte en international arkitektur til hovedstaden, som stadig står den dag i dag og minder os om, at vi er en del af verden.Vera Noldus, f. 1970 i Nederlandene, er uddannet cand.mag. og ph.d. i kulturarvsstudier og arkitekturhistorie fra universiteterne i Amsterdam og Utrecht, suppleret med en efteruddannelse i renovering fra Akademisk Arkitektforening.

Arkitekten M. G. Bindesbøll (1800-1856) er en af de vigtigste skikkelser i dansk arkitekturhistorie og i kraft af Thorvaldsens Museum den internationalt mest kendte danske arkitekt fra det 19. århundrede. Han er frontfigur i overgangen fra klassicisme til historicisme, men repræsenterer samtidig med byggerier som Landbohøjskolen og Lægeforeningens boliger en nøgtern tilgang, der foregriber det 20. århundredes mere pragmatiske arkitektursyn. Bindesbølls samlede værk, der spænder over en række stilarter, peger således i mange retninger. Fælles for projekterne er imidlertid en personlig og uortodoks omgang med historiske stilarter, der er karakteristisk for en romantisk kunstopfattelse, og som resulterer i en arkitektur med en symbolladet, undertiden overraskende moderne, karakter. Forfatter til monografien er lektor, ph.d., arkitekt maa Peter Thule Kristensen, der bl.a. har skrevet en ph.d.-afhandling om romantiske ledemotiver i arkitekturen, og som forsker og underviser i arkitekturhistorie på Kunstakademiets Arkitektskole. Bogen er rigt illustreret med nye fotografiske optagelser af den internationalt anerkendte arkitekt Jens Lindhe. Dertil kommer en lang række af Bindesbølls originaltegninger som ikke tidligere har været offentliggjort. Bogen findes også i en engelsksproget udgave.

Experience the #1 New York Times bestselling Star Wars Legends trilogy that introduced the menacing Grand Admiral Thrawn—now in a complete three-book set. Following the events of Return of the Jedi: Star Wars: Episode VI, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Princess Leia find themselves once again at the center of rebellion. Five years after the Death Star was destroyed and Darth Vader and the Emperor were defeated, the galaxy is struggling to heal the wounds of war, Leia and Han are married and expecting twins, and Luke has become the first in a long-awaited line of new Jedi Knights. But thousands of light-years away, the last of the Emperor’s warlords—the brilliant and deadly Grand Admiral Thrawn—has taken command of the shattered Imperial fleet, readied it for war, and pointed it at the fragile heart of the New Republic. Meanwhile, Han and Lando Calrissian race against time to find proof of treason inside the highest Republic Council—only to discover instead a ghostly fleet of warships that could bring doom to their friends and victory to their enemies. Yet most dangerous of all is a new Dark Jedi, risen from the ashes of a shrouded past, consumed by bitterness, and scheming to corrupt Luke to the dark side.

I 1850’erne blev kurvemøbler fast interiør på det velhavende borgerskabs kursteder og badehoteller. I løbet af 1900-tallet fandt møblerne vej til danske hjem som arkitekttegnede møbler og indskrev sig i historien om ’Danish Modern’. Og for mange danskere rimer kurvemøbler på de klassiske danske sommerhuse, siden møblerne i 1950’erne blev fast interiør i sommerlandets sorte træhuse. I 1970’erne blev kurvemøbler fortrængt af nye måder at indrette sig på. Stål og plastik fandt vej til danske hjem, og kurvemøblerne rykkede igen ud i havestuen og i de sommerhuse, som i mellemtiden var blevet populære i takt med, at danskerne fik bil og mere fritid. Som denne bog viser, har kurvemøbler i dag fået en renæssance som vintagemøbler og som nyproducerede møbler fra Østen.Birgit Lyngbye Pedersen, født 1961, er designhistoriker, billedredaktør og medforfatter til flere bøger, bl.a. om møbelarkitekten Finn Juhl.

Engang var husene på Mors rødkalkede, på Østbornholm var de gule, mens fugerne på Vestfyen var blå, og bindingsværket på Sjælland var kalket over med hvidt. Hver dansk egn sine farver. Generation efter generation. I dag skeler de færreste til vores kulturhistorie, når de skal male nye eller renovere gamle huse. Men der er mange fordele ved at kende til de klassiske pigmenter og den historiske brug af dem i både land og by. Dels har de klassiske pigmenter gennem 200 år vist sig mere bæredygtige og langtidsholdbare som overfladebehandling på murværk, puds og træ end de fleste moderne malingtyper. Dels stammer de klassiske pigmenter fra naturen. De harmonerer smukt med omgivelsernes farver, med hinanden indbyrdes, og ikke mindst ældes de med ynde. Æstetiske kvaliteter som har stor betydning for husenes og også landskabets fremtræden. Med denne bog i hånden bliver du klædt på til at forholde dig til farven på dit hus ud fra dets alder, arkitektur, materialer og ikke mindst geografiske placering. Men du vil også blive i stand til at arbejde med de klassiske pigmenter i praksis og genetablere den immaterielle kulturhistorie ved netop dit hus. For hvad enten den oprindelige maling er bevaret, ligger skjult under nyere farvelag eller helt er forsvundet, indeholder arbejdet med de klassiske pigmenter et yderst interessant historisk og bæredygtigt potentiale, og et håb om flere huse i farver.

Henrik Wivel er en af Danmarks førende kunstkritikere og kulturskribenter. Hans viden om billedkunst, film og litteratur er uovertruffen – hans pen altid elegant og præcis. I 2014 udgav forfatteren den anmelderroste "Skyggeliv". Også "Tidslys" kredser om natur, kristendom og længslen efter det evige eller overskridende, som det udtrykkes i 12 kunstværker. Hvert kapitel åbnes af et værk fra kunsthistorien – kendt eller mindre kendt – fra byzantinske ikoner over tysk højromantik og danske guldalderklassikere til det formsprængende moderne samt naturscener fra forfatterens eget arkiv. Først som sidst åbner Wivel med meget personlige erindringsessays.

»Findes der træhuse i København?« Det spørgsmål har Peter Olesen fået mange gange, når han har fortalt om hovedstadens bygninger i træ. De fleste tror, at byen kun består af beton, asfalt og mursten. Men træhusene findes, og i bogen her har Peter Olesen fundet over 30 af de allersmukkeste og enkelte af dem, der kunne bruge en kærlig hånd.For det vrimler med træhuse i København og på Frederiksberg. Det er blandt andet kolonnaden på Amalienborg, Pantomimeteatret i Tivoli, Dansepavillonen i Sydhavnen, Navernes hus på Christiania, tårnet i Zoologisk Have, Nordisk Film og tennishallen på Rygårds Allé i Gentofte.Fotograf Henrik Bjerregravs mange dejlige fotos understreger, at træhuse – dem har vi sandelig mange af. Tag med på en lystvandring gennem hovedstaden – denne gang med fokus på træhuse.
