A gripping story of sibling loyalty in the last days of medieval Japan. The first novel in a trilogy from the iconic Assassin’s Creed universe.Japan, 1868. The Boshin War is about to begin.The Templars have infiltrated the Emperor’s closest advisors and pushed the sovereign to launch an attack against the Shogun Tokugawa, who draws secret support from the Brotherhood of Assassins.

Sixteen-year-old Atsuko grew up in the city of Aizu under the shadow of her older brother, Ibuka. Though destined for an arranged marriage, she stokes a secret passion for combat and can wield weaponry just as well as her brother, whose renowned skill with the blade conceals a mortal fear of battle. When war breaks out, duty calls Ibuka to the front lines alongside his father, and defying ancient tradition that forbids women from fighting, Atsuko joins the war effort in disguise. However, Atsuko soon becomes entangled in political machinations that reach far beyond her and must fight to prove her skills and protect her family--armed only with her blade, her courage, and the strength of her sibling bond. But will it be enough?

Hver opførelse af et stykke er unik i sig selv og vil altid adskille sig lidt fra de øvrige opførelser. Men som i alle andre kunstgrene betjener også teatret sig af sine egne greb, som gør netop teatret til noget særligt. Scenekunsten flytter sig hele tiden. Nye udtryk opstår i mødet mellem scene og sal. Teater kan noget helt særligt og noget meget forskelligt. Det har sin egen historie, og det er den historie, bogserien ISCENESAT gerne vil formidle.

"Written by Disney legend Andreas Deja and lavishly illustrated, Walt Disney's The Jungle Book gathers original animation celluloids, animation drawings, and concept art--many of which have never been shown to the public--from the popular exhibition at the Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco. Considered one of the most influential Disney movies, The Jungle Book (1967) is the last animated film that Walt Disney personally produced with his signature vision and footprint. This curated collection explores the nuanced complexities and challenges that were overcome throughout the film's development and production, such as the unique characters and their voice-actor counterparts, the application of cutting-edge animation techniques of the time, and the timeless, original songs by the Sherman Brothers and Terry Gilkyson. Dive into the impact of Walt's passing on the Disney Studios and the everlasting legacy of the film throughout the world."--Book jacket.
Often hailed as the 'best' James Bond film, From Russia With Love (1963) is celebrated for its direction by Terence Young, memorable performances from Sean Connery in his second outing as 007, Pedro Armendáriz as Kerim, Lotte Lenya as the lesbian villain Colonel Rosa Klebb, and Robert Shaw as Red Grant, the sexually ambiguous SPECTRE assassin. And regardless of its place within the longest-running continuous film series in cinema history, it is also an outstanding example of the British spy thriller in its own right.Llewella Chapman's study of the iconic film pinpoints its place within the James Bond film franchise, and its significant cultural value to critics and fans as well as this film's important place within British cinema history more widely. Drawing on a broad range of archival sources, Chapman traces the film's development and production history, including its adaptation from Ian Fleming's source novel, as well as its reception and lasting impact. Chapman also considers the film's portrayal of gender politics, with its queer villains counterpoised with the heterosexual couple Bond and his Russian counterpart Tatiana Romanova, the context of Cold War politics, and the influence of Alfred Hitchcock's North by Northwest (1959).
