Synopsis
Showcasing a stunning selection of spectacular objects that have not been widely published or on regular display before, international scholars integrate Myanmar's material cultures with their histories from a Myanmar-centric point of view. From influential superpower to repressive regime, Myanmar - also known as Burma - has seen dramatic fluctuations in fortune over the past 1,500 years.Interconnected yet isolated, rich in natural resources such as jade, rubies and teak but with many of its peoples living below the poverty line, Myanmar is a country that defies categorization. Its cultures have been shaped by their engagements with religious networks, expansionist empires and global trade routes from India and China to Africa, the Middle East and Europe. It was once home to different kingdoms, principalities and chiefdoms that interacted with one another and further afield. The colonial period under British rule saw dramatic changes and upon independence in 1948, the various parts of the country were brought together, many for the first time, into a single nation state. Since then Myanmar has been engulfed by long running civil wars.This beautiful book explores Myanmar's complexities, focusing on the extraordinary and innovative arts of its diverse peoples to create a long history of the region. Featuring objects such as sparkling gems, sumptuous court dress, intricately carved furniture, elaborate silver vessels, satirical cartoons and contemporary art, from the 400s CE to the present day, this book is a testament to the creativity and variety of Myanmar's many peoples., Reveals the rich and complex histories and cultures of Burma/Myanmar from their early development and powerful imperial expansions to their positions as colonial subjects and then as a war-torn nation.

- 1***h (72)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe same visionary stigmatist and mystic: Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich, dictated her extraordinary ecstatic visions in the 1700 ´s , in Germany, to a friend. These visions of the biblical Passion of Jesus Christ, were used as the basis for the Producer Mel Gibson ´s film about the Passion of Christ, which starred : Jim Caviezel in 2004! These German writings were translated into english by a monastic monk in this relevant and fascinating book!
