After the Second World War, divided Germany was saturated with spies. Among them were the first class comrades of the Stasi - the East German Ministry for State Security. The early Cold War saw the Stasi establish itself as one of the worlds most notorious spy and secret police agencies.Drawing on rarely seen files from the Stasi archives, First Class Comrades tells the Stasi story from a fresh perspective: how it helped to create a new European state, how its foreign intelligence service became one of the most successful ever, and how its spy-catchers tackled vigorous attempts by the West to infiltrate East Germany - attempts that influenced the decision to build the Berlin Wall.Full of new insights on Cold War espionage, and featuring newly discovered details of the Stasis operational methods, First Class Comrades shines a light on this lesser-known period of Stasi history, and why its stories and lessons still matter today.

Little Ireland tells the story of one family from County Monaghan in Ireland, who emigrated to Edinburgh in the early nineteenth century and settled in the Old Town, in the Irish ghetto of Little Ireland. It is also the story of the Irish diaspora who settled there, both before and after the Great Famine, whose lives revolved around the church of St. Patrick in the Cowgate and its charismatic priest, Canon Edward Hannan, who founded Hibernian Football Club. It tells of the exiled Irish communitys involvement in the politics of their homeland and their fight for Independence for Ireland through their achievement in having the Freedom of Edinburgh awarded to Charles Stewart Parnell. It also tells of the part played by Little Ireland born James Connolly, one of the executed leaders of the Easter Rising in Dublin, which led, in time, to the formation of the Irish Free State. But most of all, it tells of the joys and sorrows of one family who emigrated to Edinburgh seeking a new life, of their achievements, the tragedies that befell them and how some of them were forced into onward emigration to Canada and America.

Le récit du marin naufragé est la plus ancienne histoire connue dun marin naufragé et, en tant que tel, il est le précurseur de nombreux récits daventures nautiques rencontrant détranges créatures magiques, de lOdyssee dHomere a Sinbad le Marin. Dans un sens plus large, il est generalement considere comme la plus ancienne uvre de fiction egyptienne a avoir survecu jusqua aujourdhui. Un seul exemplaire a ete retrouve a ce jour, un manuscrit sur papyrus conserve au musee de lErmitage de Saint-Petersbourg, en Russie, et designe sous le nom de pHermitage 1115. Il a dabord ete designe sous le nom de pPetersburg 1115 a la fin de lere imperiale russe, puis pLeningrad 1115 pendant lere sovietique, et ces designations sont parfois encore utilisees dans la litterature moderne.Lorigine exacte du papyrus na pas ete correctement documentee a lepoque, ce qui etait courant chez les premiers egyptologues, mais il a probablement ete retrouve lors de lexpedition de Vladimir Golenishchev en 1884-85 dans le Ouadi Hammamat, qui etait la principale route commerciale entre le Nil dans le sud de lEgypte et le port dAl-Qusair sur la mer Rouge. Les vestiges archeologiques de loued Hammamat montrent quil a ete une voie de transbordement majeure pour les marchandises voyageant entre Koptos, sur le Nil, et Al-Qusair sur la mer Rouge depuis lepoque pre-dynastique, et quil a continue a etre utilise tout au long de lhistoire de lEgypte pour le transbordement entre le Nil du sud de lEgypte et la mer Rouge.Le papyrus utilise le dialecte egyptien du Moyen Empire, et bien que plusieurs egyptologues laient traduit, le manuscrit original na pas encore ete publie sous forme photographique. Cette traduction, comme toutes les traductions modernes, est donc basee sur une source secondaire, en particulier la transcription hieratique de Vladimir Golenishchev dans Les papyrus hieratiques, publiee en 1913 sous le nom de W. Golenischeff. W.K. Flinders Petrie estimait que le dialecte et la forme du hieratique utilise

Este volume faz parte de uma coleço de dezenas de livros na qual descrevo a terra santa na viso de um peregrino. Em maio de 2023 tive a oportunidade de ficar alguns dias na Galileia e o epicentro deste lugar extraordinario e o famoso Mar da Galileia, Jesus era chamado de O GALILEU. Quem ler os Evangelhos de Mateus, Marcos, Lucas e Joo, vera inumeras citaçes da vida de Jesus em que ele estava em um barco no mar da Galileia. Praticamente todos seus discipulos eram pescadores destas aguas. Neste singelo livro faço uma abordagem do mar da Galileia do ponto de vista turistico, religioso, geografico, historico, hidrico, sempre com minha marca pessoal que e inserço de fotos e ilustraçes. Procurei concentrar minhas descriçes no mar da Galileia e seu entorno, mesmo assim e so uma sintese da riqueza deste local. Eu confesso que tive que esconder o rosto inchado por um tempo, porque chorei muito aqui, parecia que eu estava to perto de Jesus...

A fresh, provocative history that renews our understanding of France in the world through short, incisive essays ranging from prehistoric frescoes to Coco Chanel to the terrorist attacks of 2015.Bringing together an impressive group of established and up-and-coming historians, this bestselling history conceives of France not as a fixed, rooted entity, but instead as a place and an idea in flux, moving beyond all borders and frontiers, shaped by exchanges and mixtures.

With a brand-new preface aimed at an international audience, this English-language edition will inspire Francophiles and scholars alike.

In 614 CE, the armies of Sasanid Persia shocked the Eastern Roman Empire when they besieged and captured Jerusalem, taking a large swath of its population into captivity along with the citys patriarch and the famed relic of the True Cross. This astounding Persian victory over Christian Jerusalem was a key episode in the last war between Rome and Persia in 602-628 CE and occurred at the high tide of Persian advances into the Roman territories in Asia Minor, the Levant, and Egypt. Among those taken captive was a certain Strategius, a monk of Mar Saba, who subsequently took it upon himself to compose a homily recounting the events leading up to the Persian siege of the Holy City and its aftermath. Strategius presents his pious and harrowing account as that of an eyewitness to many of the events he recounts. For events he did not himself witness, he purports to rely on contemporary informants who did, making his treatise a source with few parallels in late antiquity. Although Strategiuss original account in Greek is lost, it survives via later translations into Georgian and Christian Arabic, two languages that attained prominence in the monasteries of Palestine during the Islamic period. This volume provides, for the first time, a complete side-by-side English translation of both the Georgian and the Arabic recensions.
