The book traces the story of how a song recorded in 1981 by a young punk rock band from a cultural backwater on the English-Welsh border, and released on a tiny independent record label, became famous in a Yugoslavia formed in the image of Marshall Tito? Why was it 30 years before the members of the band found out? How did this 'socialist' country have one of the most vibrant punk scenes in the world?Gloucester, England, 1981; multi-racial, teenage street-punk band, Demob, recorded and released what would become their best known and most enduring song, No Room For You. A rasping vocal told the story of the 1979 closure of a short-lived, punk rock venue at a disused motel on the edge of the provincial city. Depending on your mind-set, the lyrics were either a howl of rage at the injustice, a wail at the loss, or a love-song to an era. More than three decades later, the author - and Demob's bass player in 1981 - set out to follow the song across a country that no longer exists. On the road he heard the life stories of the heroes of Yugoslavian punk and the punks themselves; from the Tito era, through the disintegration and wars, forced displacements and permanent exiles, to today's turbulent 'reconstruction. Who were 'Tito's punks' and who are they now?An unvarnished but also affectionate portrait of Yugoslavia in the years before its demise through to the present, seen through the unlikely lens of punk and punk rockers. Part travelogue, part history the book is both, and neither, of those things. Rather, it is a mural and soundtrack of a journey through a time and place which no longer exists. The latest addition to the Global Punk series from Intellect.

Steeped in honey, Juventius, your golden eyes, and as sweet too when I press my lips to them - three hundred thousand kisses is not close to enoughFor centuries, evidence of queer love in the ancient world was ignored or suppressed. Even today, only a few, famous narratives are widely known - yet there's a rich literary tradition of Greek and Roman love that extends far beyond this handful of stories. Here, the poet Seán Hewitt and painter Luke Edward Hall collect together, for the first time, forty of the most exhilarating queer tales in the classical canon and bring them newly to life. A ground-breaking anthology that changes the way we see the ancient world - and invites us to reflect on the puritanism of our own - 300,000 Kisses is a riotous celebration of desire in all its forms.

This intriguing book describes the Romans' formidably warlike enemies in modern Romania and Bulgaria - their 'most illustrated' opponents, thanks to friezes on Trajan's Column and carvings on Trajan's Adamklissi monument.Formidable warriors, able to field tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry and led by a military aristocracy, the Dacians and Getae presented a real threat to Rome's north-eastern frontier. They inflicted several defeats on Rome, crossing the Danube to invade the province of Moesia, and later stubbornly resisting counter-invasions from their strong mountain fortresses. Historians believe that the Dacians and Getae were essentially the same group of tribes during successive periods, related to Thracian tribes from territory south of the Carpathian Mountains, but their exact relationship in place and time is a subject for debate. Those called the 'Getae' by ancient Greek sources were actively expanding by at least the 4th century BC; some enlisted as mercenaries in Roman armies during the 1st century BC, and others later clashed with the army of Augustus, fighting alongside the Sarmatians. The people whom the Romans called the 'Dacians' are best known from wars against the emperors Domitian in AD 85-89 and Trajan in 101-106. At their peak, the Dacians and Getae defeated neighbouring peoples stretching from modern Slovakia to southern Ukraine and it is believed that the effectiveness of their weapons caused modifications in Roman infantry armour. Although most direct ancient sources have been lost to us, enough references remain to reconstruct a picture of their society and culture. Using previously unseen photos of archaeological finds with colour illustrations showing the appearance and weaponry of their warrior kings, noblemen, infantry and cavalry, this detailed book draws upon the latest literary and archaeological research to provide a complete account of these fascinating fighters.

Fra det antikke Grækenland har vi overleveret en forestilling om at der findes fire gode personlige egenskaber som er særligt vigtige. Disse fire – retfærdighed, besindighed, visdom og mod – er kendt som de fire kardinaldyder, og Platon får ofte æren for at have opfundet eller samlet disse dyder. Det skyldes at de spiller en meget fremtrædende rolle i hans mest berømte værk, Staten, når den lykkelige sjæl og den velfungerende stat skal beskrives. Denne bog præsenterer en grundig analyse af de fire kardinaldyders tidligste historie. Undersøgelsen falder i to dele. I den første kortlægges kardinaldydernes tilstedeværelse i den græske litteratur frem til og med Platon. Denne undersøgelse er bl.a. baseret på computerassisterede analyser af den samlede græske litteratur frem til Platons egen samtid, hvilket gør det muligt at skitsere og identificere forbindelser mellem de fire berømte termer. Korpuslingvistiske metoder og statistisk analyse anvendes for at give behandlingen et mere systematisk grundlag og tilstræbe så høj en objektivitet som fortolkningen af denne litteratur tillader. Anden del beskæftiger sig med en række centrale og berømte dialoger i Platons forfatterskab som underkastes en kritisk analyse med sigte på de fire kardinaldyder og deres mulige interne forbindelser. Undervejs sættes der spørgsmålstegn ved om de udgør en fast og veletableret filosofisk enhed, og om de repræsenterer den samlede dyd i de undersøgte dialoger. Samlet præsenterer bogens to dele et forslag til at genoverveje vores forståelse af begyndelse til de firekardinaldyders lange og prominente historie.

Albanien 1943. De tyske tropper står foran byen Gjirokastra i det sydlige Albanien som første etape i en omhyggeligt planlagt invasion. Den nazistiske øverstbefalende viser sig at være en gammel ven af byens fremtrædende kirurg doktor Gurameto. Oberst von Schwabe er begejstret over gensynet og Gurameto inviterer ham til middag. Men tyskerne har taget gidsler blandt byens indbyggere og mens musikken og champagnen flyder forsøger Gurameto - velvidende at han nu anses for at være landsforræder - at overtale obersten til at frigive gidslerne. Det lykkes og Gurameto hyldes som byens helt. Mange år senere da krigen er slut og kommunismen for længst er indført dukker sagen imidlertid op igen. Stalins paranoia er på sit højeste og pludselig ser han den gådefulde middag som et klart bevis på at Gurameto ja hele byen Gjirokastra står bag et verdensomspændende komplot med det formål at udrydde socialismen og Stalin selv. Ismail Kadaré (f. 1936) er født og opvokset i Gjirokastra i det sydlige Albanien men deler nu sin tid mellem Albanien og Frankrig. Han har udgivet mere end 30 romaner som er blevet oversat til mere end 40 sprog. På dansk er udgivet flere romaner. Senest Agamemnons datter (2007). Kadaré modtog i 2005 Den Internationale Man Booker pris for romanen Efterfølgeren (på dansk 2006).

TUSINDER AF ÅR GAMMEL LIGGER EN SIMPEL STATUETTE, EN MARMORFIGUR, UNDER JORDEN PÅ EN LILLE Ø I DET ÆGÆISKE HAV. SÅDANNE SMUKKE OG GÅDEFULDE IKONER EFTERSPØRGES AF BÅDE SAMLERE OG GRAVRØVERE.Som barn tilbringer Helena McCloud somrene hos sine bedsteforældre i Athen. Det er i slutningen af 1960’erne. Grækenland er styret af et brutalt militærdiktatur, hvor hendes iltre og strenge bedstefar er general.En sommer mange år efter vender Helena drevet af kærlighed tilbage til landet, og hendes interesse for arkæologi vækkes, da hun som frivillig deltager i udgravningen på en lille græsk ø. Et forfærdeligt forræderi tænder dog også et ønske om hævn i hende. Hævn over forsmåelsen, hævn over sin bedstefars fornedrelser. Hævn for genoprejsning.Tilbage i Athen gennemgår Helena den forladte lejlighed, som hun har arvet, og opdager en skjult samling af uvurderlige antikviteter. Hun spørger sig selv, hvordan hendes bedstefar dog har opnået sådan en samling og beslutter sig for at returnere de dyrebare genstande til deres retmæssige ejere. Det fører hende ind i en kriminel underverden, hvor hun må tage en beslutning om, hvilke værdier der er værd at kæmpe for.

Politimanden David Flugt drømmer om at vende tilbage til en normal tilværelse, efter at han i selvforsvar har dræbt en seriemorder. Men da han pludselig bliver kontaktet af sin gamle chef fra Europol, tilspidses situationen yderligere: Den falske identitet, han bar, da han i sin tid infiltrerede en umenneskeligt kynisk rumænsk bande, er blevet afsløret, og der er sat en stor pris på hans hoved i Rumænien. Magtfulde folk på begge sider af loven vil se ham død.Selvom han vil være jaget vildt, så snart han sætter fod i hovedstaden Timisoara, må David nødvendigvis tilbage og gøre regnskabet op med bandelederen Volos. Hans plan er lige så enkel, som den er dumdristig: Ene mand vil han tage kampen op mod en af de farligste kriminelle organisationer i Østeuroma og tage Volos’ hoved, før han får taget sit eget.Men hvad David ikke ved, er at han får følgeskab af en hidtil ukendt fjende: ham selv."Stamina" er en selvstændig fortsættelse til "Manden i tre dele" og "Den nittende ø".

An enjoyable, accessible exploration of the legacy of ancient Greece today, across our daily lives and all forms of popular culture Our contemporary world is inescapably Greek. Whether in a word like "pandemic," a Freudian state of mind like the "Oedipus complex," or a replica of the Parthenon in a Chinese theme park, ancient Greek culture shapes the contours of our lives. Ever since the first Roman imitators, we have been continually falling under the Greeks' spell. But how did ancient Greece spread its influence so far and wide? And how has this influence changed us? Tony Spawforth explores our classical heritage, wherever it's to be found. He reveals its legacy in everything from religion to popular culture, and unearths the darker side of Greek influence--from the Nazis' obsession with Spartan "racial purity" to the elitism of classical education. Paying attention to the huge breadth and variety of Hellenic influence, this book paints an essential portrait of the ancient world's living legacy--considering to whom it matters, and why.

Aus Anlaß des 80. Geburtstags von Johannes Koder (*1942) bringen Freunde, Wegbegleiter, Schüler und Kollegen diese Festschrift dar, deren Beiträge sich inhaltlich auf jene Forschungsinteressen des Jubilars beziehen, die er als Professor für Byzantinistik an der Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz (1978-1985) und ordentlicher Professor der Byzantinistik an der Universität Wien (1985-2010) stets mit großem Eifer, Enthusiasmus und Originalität in Lehre und Forschung vertreten hat. Dazu zählen im wesentlichen Aspekte der historischen Geographie, Wirtschaftsgeschichte, Archäologie, Gräzistik und Philologie sowie Hymnologie des Byzantinischen Reiches, womit er die Beitragenden aus dem In- und Ausland während seiner aktiven Laufbahn auf verschiedene Art und Weise inspirierte.Aus diesem Grunde finden sich in diesem Band archäologische, toponomastische, historische, philologische, historisch-geographische und kunsthistorische Themen. Vom wachen schöpferischen Geist Johannes Koders zeugt auch seine Beschäftigung mit vermeintlichen "Randthemen" der Byzantinistik und Balkanforschung, wie zum Beispiel dem Kordax - dem "Tanz der Slawen", der für die Festschrift namensgebend ist.

In this dissertation, we analyze Cândido de Figueiredo's linguistic thinking, which was often rigorous and normative in its descriptive approach to different grammatical phenomena. The first, between Cândido de Figueiredo and Paulino de Brito, deals with the placement of clitic pronouns, from a comparative perspective between Brazilian Portuguese and European Portuguese; the second, between Cândido de Figueiredo and Heráclito Graça, covers issues of morphology and syntax, again within a normative framework, which points to certain innovative uses in the literary writing of Brazilian authors as errors. Our aim is to examine Cândido de Figueiredo's speeches and place them in the historical, social and cultural context of his time, so as to enable a more accurate assessment of his conservative ideas.

A riveting biography of Alexander the Great's final years, when the leader's insatiable desire to conquer the world set him off on an exhilarating, harrowing journey that would define his legacy. By 330 B.C.E., Alexander the Great had reached the pinnacle of success. Or so it seemed. He had defeated the Persian ruler Darius III and seized the capital city of Persepolis. His exhausted and traumatized soldiers were ready to return home to Macedonia. Yet Alexander had other plans. He was determined to continue heading east to Afghanistan in search of his ultimate goal: to reach the end of the world. Alexander's unrelenting desire to press on resulted in a perilous seven-year journey through the unknown eastern borderlands of the Persian empire that would test the great conqueror's physical and mental limits. He faced challenges from the natural world, moving through deadly monsoons and extreme temperatures; from a rotating cast of well-matched adversaries, who conspired against him at every turn; and even from his own men, who questioned his motives and distrusted the very beliefs on which Alexander built his empire. This incredible sweep of time, culminating with his death in 323 BC at the age of 32, would come to determine Alexander's legacy and shape the empire he left behind. In Alexander at the End of the World, renowned classicist and art history professor Rachel Kousser vividly brings to life Alexander's labyrinthine, treacherous final years, weaving together a brilliant series of epic battles, stunning landscapes, and nearly insurmountable obstacles. Meticulously researched and grippingly written, Kousser's narrative is an unforgettable tale of daring and adventure, an inspiring portrait of grit and ambition, and a powerful meditation on the ability to learn from failure.

This book is a torn page from the History of World War II. It cost the author 20 years of research. It cost the Greek National Resistance thousands of dead and wounded in battles and acts of sabotage that have remained unsung. The inspiration and the leader of the unorthodox and harsh war without prisoners against the invaders was Aris; a charismatic 36-year-old man with an iron will. He created ELAS, the largest volunteer army in the history of Greece, and a "Free Greece" within enslaved Europe. But when the invaders left, Aris clashed with the political leadership of both the right and the left and he took to the mountains again, where he committed suicide on June 15, 1945, hounded by all of them.
