"Hidden World of the Aztec" is the history of the Aztec people, which grew up around the city of Tenochtitlan, in what is now underneath modern day Mexico City. This culture thrived from 1325-1521. The author accompanies an archaeologist named Leonardo as he excavates the Aztec Great Temple, or Templo Mayor in Spanish, in the middle of downtown Mexico City. He also visits and discusses another ancient culture located at a city north of Mexico City called Teotihuacan, and its main structure called The Pyramid of the Moon. I picked this book because I have been fascinated with Pre-Columbian culture since I took an art history class my junior year of college. This book was a more in-depth study of the Aztecs than what I had studied, which was primarily the Olmecs, Teotihuacan and the Mayans in Mexico and Guatemala. Their culture was just so advanced considering they were Stone Age to Medieval people and had no metal tools. Plus their artwork, though sometimes a little gruesome, is so amazing with the colors they used and the subject matter. They try to explain the bloodletting ritual in the book and I think they did a decent job, though it is still bound to gross people out. They used to bloodlet pretty much any appendage and then illustrated it on wall paintings or codices. I liked how they talked about all the ongoing archaeological digs going in the city and I think it would be so cool to actually go to one and even help out. I also liked how the author got to go inside the Pyramid of the Moon and check out the skulls and objects they had found inside. I would love to one day go to the pyramid and check out the view from the top, as it is supposed to be amazing. This is of course despite the fact that the stairs are notoriously steep and angled, and difficult to get up.

I enjoyed the love scences, they are well written and D/S is well explained. I am not into BDSM and find them a bit extreme, but in this book, it is very erotic.

Lãnh Đạo Phong Cách Barack Obama Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Shel Leanne

the thing is, i hate james frey. and i read this before the whole scandal with oprah came out, which goes to show that i really do keep up with the crazy people memoirs. ANYWAY, i cried at the ending, and i hate him for that. the style annoys some people, but i like it - doesn't irritate me half as much as dave eggers. however, i am not keeping the book. even with the good writing.

Bé Làm Quen Với Thế Giới Xung Quanh Bằng Thơ - 100 Động Vật Thường Gặp Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Đặng Thiên Sơn

** spoiler alert ** First a bit of a disclaimer: I am merely someone who was fascinated enough with dance and ballet (as a spectator) to look up a book such as this as a way of perhaps becoming better acquainted with the art form. I rented the audiobook version originally to build up some background knowledge for a character in friend's RP that used to be a court dancer in the Renaissance period, but found that I became interested in the history for it's own sake. I have no direct experience as a ballet dancer, nor would I be able to (or want to) become a ballet dancer. I'm simply just someone who enjoys going to see live performance art (whether it's a circus performance, a ballet, a concert or a play). With that being said, the opinions expressed in this review are simply just that. I hope it's a somewhat more educated set of opinions after having read this impressively compiled history book, but if I make assumptions that you cannot accept, I will understand. I know I am not an expert on the subject of ballet, but I do appreciate it as an art form and I feel that the author's argument worth ruminating on. This is a very informative and comprehensive history of ballet from its earliest beginnings up until the present day. I found myself discussing the epilogue and what it might mean for ballet (as well as other performance art)'s future with my family after finishing it. It's clear that ballet cannot (and should not in my opinion, whatever that's worth as someone who has next to no experience with ballet directly) return to its roots, as it's near impossible to do so. The contexts and the crowd that sustained those older forms of the dance are all but gone (as is discussed in the epilogue of the book). I find that in some ways this may be a good thing, as although it is always disheartening to lose the more beautiful works of art in any medium, it becomes necessary to move on and find new ways to express new works of art. Not very much comes of trying to ape the styles of the old ballets, which are themselves loosely adapted from still older forms of dance. It is completely understandable why, like oral storytelling for example, some want to make sure the old ways don't die out. It's a one-of-a-kind way to create and experience art. At the same time, if we concentrate too much on what may or may not be lost in any art form, we will miss opportunities to experiment and come up with new ways of expressing ourselves through dance. I find there's a parallel to this in film, as well as music. Many film buffs are currently unsure of what the future holds for films as an art form, understandably as there has been a rash of overly commercial and watered down films as of late that are either derived from older works, based on older works or adapted from other sources that are often superior to their film counterparts. I do not claim to have a definite answer for where film or ballet should go to find new inspiration and life for their respective art forms. I do know this though: neither is going to really "die." And to be honest, bringing it back to the book, I believe that ballet will transform again, not die. I think the only death ballet will see is of its oldest self, which again in my own opinion it may have needed to do a long time ago. There will always be echoes of the old ways of ballet that filter through to present choreographers and dancers productions. I think what ballet is doing right now is struggling to shed its old skin (to use a very tired phrase) without destroying what little remnants of itself it has to refer back to. There should always be a respect for what it has of it's classical past, but clinging so hard to the old ways may be what makes it that much harder to keep up. And now I feel a bit conflicted after writing all that. After all, since ballet's history is (to use the author's words) contained in the dancers' bodies themselves and the dancers are becoming much less connected to the roots of ballet perhaps ballet will cease to exist. I cannot quite say that though without still doubting that. After all, there are now many film recordings that have preserved these dances. These recordings together with ballet masters that still care enough to teach the older styles along with the more contemporary forms, I hope, will at least keep new dancers aware of where ballet came from. I think that, although to those more closely involved with ballet may despair of what the death of Balanchine and twentieth century advancements may mean for classical ballet, I think it's a blessing in disguise. I think what ballet needs right now is as much new blood as possible.

Không Gia Đình (Tái bản lần 14) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Hector Malot

Yawn. I am a bit disappointed. I picked up this book thinking my sister would love it--- she is a biologist and loves Africa. This does NOT take place in Africa and it is a bunch of disconnected short stories....that are not that interesting. Sigh. I shall continue my hunt for some entertainment.

Nơi Em Thuộc Về Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Johanna Lindsey

We read this book for our "Lunch Book Club" at the Library. I enjoyed the book but what made it even more interesting for me was the insight that the students brought to the story. The first 8 Chapters were hard for me to get through because the genre is not usually what interests me and I did not care for the narrator/protagonist. Overall, I would recommend it at the Middle School/High School levels because it did cause the reader to think about moral issues.
