Opis - Pierwsze na świecie świadectwo ofiary zbrodni honorowej. Miała siedemnaście lat i zakochała się: zhańbiła rodzinę. Więc rodzina wydała na nią wyrok śmierci... Pokochała go pierwszą miłością. Myślała, że się z nią ożeni. Ale ukochany zniknął, a ona odkryła, że jest w ciąży. A w jej świecie to najcięższa zbrodnia... W zapomnianej przez Boga wiosce w Cisjordanii kobiety są warte mniej niż zwierzęta domowe. Tu mężczyzna jest panem życia i śmierci żony, córki, siostry. Brat może bezkarnie zabić siostrę, matka - córkę, kolejną bezużyteczną dziewczynkę, jaka się urodzi. Tu kobiecie odbiera się godność, a nawet życie zgodnie z odwiecznym obyczajem i uświęconą tradycją. A śmierć jest karą dla dziewczyny, która zhańbi rodzinę. Tak jak Souad. Wyrok wydaje jej ojciec. Szwagier dokonuje egzekucji. Oblewa Souad benzyną i podpala... SOUAD przeżyła - cudem, ale rodzina usiłowała zabić ją nawet w szpitalu. Na zawsze jednak pozostanie straszliwie okaleczona - na ciele i duszy. I wciąż musi się ukrywać; dopóki żyje, jej rodzinę okrywa hańba. Spalona żywcem, opublikowana pod pseudonimem szokująca opowieść o piekle, jakim było jej dzieciństwo i młodość, stała się międzynarodowym bestsellerem. Wydana w 37 w krajach książka przerywa tabu milczenia wobec istniejącej nadal w krajach muzułmańskich barbarzyńskiej tradycji. Nieludzkiego obyczaju, prawa mężczyzn, na mocy którego co najmniej pięć tysięcy kobiet pada co roku ofiarą zbrodni honorowej. Nazwa - Spalona Żywcem Wyd.

Black Genesis Inner Traditions Bear and Company

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Relegated to the realm of archaeological heresy, despite a wealth of hard scientific evidence, the theory that an advanced civilization of black Africans settled in the Sahara long before Pharaonic Egypt existed has been dismissed and even condemned by conventional Egyptologists, archaeologists, and the Egyptian government. Uncovering compelling new evidence, Egyptologist Robert Bauval and astrophysicist Thomas Brophy present the anthropological, climatological, archaeological, geological, and genetic research supporting this hugely debated theory of the black African origin of Egyptian civilization. Revealing these "Star People" as the true founders of ancient Egyptian civilization, this book completely rewrites the history of world civilization, placing black Africa back in its rightful place at the center of mankind's origins.Building upon extensive studies from the past four decades and their own archaeoastronomical and hieroglyphic research, the authors show how the early black culture known as the Cattle People not only domesticated cattle but also had a sophisticated grasp of astronomy; created plentiful rock art at Gilf Kebir and Gebel Uwainat; had trade routes to the Mediterranean coast, central Africa, and the Sinai; held spiritual and occult ceremonies; and constructed a stone calendar circle and megaliths at the ceremonial site of Nabta Playa reminiscent of Stonehenge, yet much older. . Reveals black Africa to be at the genesis of ancient civilization and the human story . Examines extensive studies into the lost civilization of the "Star People" by renowned anthropologists, archaeologists, genetic scientists, and cultural historians as well as the authors' archaeoastronomy and hieroglyphics research . Deciphers the history behind the mysterious Nabta Playa ceremonial area and its stone calendar circle and megaliths

History of Babylon, 2200 BC - AD 75 John Wiley and Sons Ltd

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

The aim of this project is to write a narrative history of Babylon from the time of its First Dynasty (1880-1595) until the last centuries of the city's existence during the Hellenistic and Parthian periods (ca. 331-75 AD). During most of its history, Babylon was the capital of a kingdom that corresponded roughly to the southern and central parts of Iraq, an area commonly designated as 'Babylonia', although this term did not come into widespread use until Babylon had lost its independence and become a province of the Persian and Seleucid empires. At other times Babylon's rule extended well beyond Babylonia, for instance during the second half of the 6th century, when the city was the capital of a vast empire stretching from the Persian Gulf to Cilicia and from Jerusalem to the confines of Armenia. During the second millennium Babylon had received, synthesized and transformed the heritage of the old civilization of Sumer and Akkad to become the main expression of Mesopotamian civilization. Babylon even wielded decisive cultural influence over Assyria, although the latter was often more powerful politically and militarily.Babylonian became the international language of culture and diplomacy during the Late Bronze, and in almost every capital of the Near East including Egypt an elite of scribes copied and studies classics of Babylonian literature and wrote official correspondence to other courts in the Middle Babylonian dialect. Although the cosmopolitan reach of Babylonian receded in the first millennium, the development of Babylonian science and scholarship ensured the continued influence of that civilization even after the loss of independence. As late as the second century BC, Greek astronomers like Hipparchus borrowed entire sets of data and parameters from their Babylonian colleagues. At the same time, however, Jewish thinkers were spreading the view, inherited from the prophets of the Biblical period, of Babylon as the emblematic city of imperial hubris, idolatry and corruption. This view entirely dominated the imagination of the Western and Islamic worlds until the 19th century, when the rediscovery of cuneiform documentation allowed historians to redress the balance and separate history from myth.Therefore, to write a History of Babylon means not only to write a history of the most important phase in the development of Mesopotamian culture, but also to understand how an ancient and complex civilization became memorialized for posterity as a purely theological symbol.

Azazeel Atlantic Books

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Set in the 5th century AD, Azazeel is the exquisitely crafted tale of a Coptic monk's journey from Upper Egypt to Alexandria and then Syria during a time of massive upheaval in the early Church. Winner of the Arab Booker Prize, Azazeel highlights how the history of our civilization has been warped by greed and avarice since its very beginnings and how one man's beliefs are challenged not only by the malice of the devil, but by the corruption with the early Church. In sparse and often sparkling prose that reflects the arid beauty of the Syrian landscape, Azazeel is a novel that forces us to re-think many of our long-held beliefs and invites us to rediscover a lost history.
