The Untold Story of Waterloo
Most of the people living in Trinidad would agree that mystery shines throughout the island. But it might only be a small number who realizes that such mystery, to a large extent, owes its existence to Indian spirituality. In the Village of Waterloo, for example, there is the well-known Temple in the Sea. There is a Lingam (sacred stone) with a natural imprint of a cobra. The cobra is a form of Lord Shiva – a Hindu deity. And there is a strange fruit that puzzles people about its existence. What is behind it all? The answer is Indian Spirituality. In addition to showing how they are all connected; this book takes the reader on a journey to explore the spirituality embedded within the various places of interest in the village, as well; it explores the village’s 160-plus year history of sugar operation and some aspects of Indian immigration into the Caribbean during the colonial period.
Insect and Hydroponic Farming in Africa
Interestingly, some relief from today's woes may come from ancient human practices. While current agri-food production models rely on abundant supplies of water, energy, and arable land and generate significant greenhouse gas emissions in addition to forest and biodiversity loss, past practices point toward more affordable and sustainable paths. Different forms of insect farming and soilless crop farming, or hydroponics, have existed for centuries. In this report the authors make a persuasive case that frontier agriculture, particularly insect and hydroponic farming, can complement conventional agriculture. Both technologies reuse society's agricultural and organic industrial waste to produc...
Italia et Germania
Der vorliegende Band, den Freunde, Schüler, Kollegen aus vielen Ländern Arnold Esch, dem scheidenden Direktor des Deutschen Historischen Instituts in Rom zum 65. Geburtstag gewidmet haben, behandelt Themen, die ihm und der Forschung wichtig waren und sind: Der Historiker und die Gegenwart, Rom und die Päpste, Kunst und Künstler, Menschen und Schicksale, diesseits und jenseits der Alpen gezeigt an Überlieferungen und Texten. Arnold Eschs Blick reicht weit und deshalb wird auch hier weit geschaut: vom Frühmittelalter bis zur Gegenwart, auf Leben und Nachleben, Kunst und Geschichte, Wirtschaft und Archäologie. Stets aber geht es um Italien in Europa, konkret und anschaulich und nach dem Ganzen zielend, so wie er selber es liebt. Die Werke, in denen er dies gezeigt hat, nennt das beigegebene Schriftenverzeichnis.
Restoration of Coastal Marine Ecosystems
Human health and wellbeing cannot be sustained without proper ecosystem functioning and high biodiversity is essential to maintain such functioning. Worldwide, unsustainable exploitation of natural resources by a growing human population has imposed serious pressures on ecosystem integrity. To change the tide, the United Nations declared the current decade as the UN Decade of Ecosystem Restoration, with the aim of “supporting and scaling up efforts to prevent, halt and reverse the degradation of ecosystems worldwide”. Large-scale active ecosystem restoration actions will be needed to achieve these ambitious aims. Whereas methodologies for systemic restoration of terrestrial ecosystems ha...
Let the Dead in
Saida Agostini's first full-length poetry collection, let the dead, is an exploration of the mythologies that seek to subjugate Black bodies, and the counter-stories that reject such subjugation. Audacious, sensual, and grieving, this work explores how Black women harness the fantastic to craft their own road to freedom. A journey across Guyana, London, and the United States, it is a meditation on black womanhood, queerness, the legacy of colonization, and pleasure. These poems craft a creation story fat with love, queerness, mermaids, and blackness.
La Festa
Storia di una Festa. “Così come la vita, questa Festa contiene molte storie, alcune delle quali a dir poco strabilianti. Ma devo precisare che ogni cosa è realmente accaduta, e che, cazzo, io ero là. Ho visto ogni singola cosa, sentito ogni singola parola e posso affermare senza paura che non esiste libro più vero di questo.Perché quello che è scritto è quello che accadde.”
