[American non-fiction, Ancient history, Archaeology, History of culture, Religion]. [`Древние религии`]. 1st published in 2004. `Religious beliefs and practices, which permeated all aspects of life in antiquity, traveled well-worn routes throughout the Mediterranean: itinerant charismatic practitioners journeying from place to place peddled their skills as healers, purifiers, cursers, and initiators, and vessels decorated with illustrations of myths traveled with them. New gods encountered in foreign lands by merchants and conquerors were sometimes taken home to be adapted and adopted. This collection of essays by a distinguished international group of scholars, drawn from the groundbreaking reference work `Religions of the Ancient World`, offers an expansive, comparative perspective on this complex spiritual world.` [Sarah Iles Johnston (1957-) is an American classicist and historian of religion. She is College of Arts and Sciences Distinguished Professor of Religion at Ohio State University and Professor of Classics, with affiliations in Comparative Studies and History. Her work examines ancient Greek myth and religion, with particular attention to divination, ghosts and the afterlife, and the ways narratives foster belief. Johnston`s scholarship focuses on Greek myths and ancient Mediterranean religions. She has written on the dead and their interactions with the living, on divination, and on how narrative structures sustain religious belief].

[`Кристиансен К., Ларссон Т.Б. `Возникновение (подъем) общества бронзового века: путешествия, передачи (переносы) и трансформации`]. 1st published in 2005, Winner of the 2006 `The Shakespeare Association of America`. `Beginning with state formation and urbanisation in the Near East c.3000 BC and ending in central and northern Europe c.1000-500 BC, the Bronze Age marks a heroic age of travels and transformations throughout Europe. In this book, the authors reconstruct the travel and transmission of knowledge that took place between the Near East, the Mediterranean and Europe. They explore how religious, political and social conceptions of Bronze Age people were informed by long-distance connections and alliances between local elites. The book integrates the hitherto separate research fields of European and Mediterranean (classical) archaeology and provides the reader with an alternative to the traditional approach of diffusionism. Examining data from across the region, the book presents an important new interpretation of social change in the Bronze Age, making it essential reading for students of archaeology, of anthropology and of the development of early European society.` [Kristian Kristiansen (1948-) is a Danish archaeologist known for his contributions to the study of Bronze Age Europe, heritage studies and archaeological theory.

[British non-fiction, Ancient History, Archaeology, Sociology, Mediterranean region, Celts]. [Коллис, Джон. `Европейский железный век`]. 1st published in 1984, the book is serving as a standard introductory textbook .`This ambitious study documents the underlying features which link the civilizations of the Mediterranean - Phoenician, Greek, Etruscan and Roman - and the Iron Age cultures of central Europe, traditionally associated with the Celts. It deals with the social, economic and cultural interaction in the 1st millennium BC which culminated in the Roman Empire. The book has three principle themes: -the spread of iron-working from its origins in Anatolia to its adoption over most of Europe, -the development of a trading system throughout the Mediterrean world after the collapse of Mycenaean Greece and its spread into temperate Europe, -and the rise of ever more complex societies, including states and cities, and eventually empires. The author takes a new look at such key concepts as population movement, diffusion, trade, social structure and spatial organization, with some challenging new views on the Celts in particular.` [John Collis (1944-) is a British archaeologist and prehistorian renowned for his expertise on the European Iron Age, including processes of urbanism, commerce, and the controversial interpretation of Celtic identity.

The highly mobile two-wheeled war chariot, carrying a driver and an archer armed with a short composite bow, revolutionized military tactics after 1700 BC.

With chapter bibliographies, distribution maps and illustrations, Dickinson`s detailed examination of material and archaeological evidence argues that many characteristics of Ancient Greece developed in the Dark Ages. He also includes up-to-date coverage of the `Homeric question`. This highly informative text focuses on: -the reasons for the Bronze Age collapse which brought about the Dark Ages, -the processes that enabled Greece to emerge from the Dark Ages, -the degree of continuity from the Dark Ages to later times. Dickinson has provided an invaluable survey of this period that will not only be useful to specialists and undergraduates in the field, but that will also prove highly popular with the interested general reader.` [Oliver T.P.K. Dickinson is a British archaeologist specializing in Aegean prehistory, particularly the Mycenaean civilization of the Greek Bronze Age and the transitions to subsequent periods. He earned his PhD from the University of Oxford in 1970. His scholarly work emphasizes the dynamic, multi-linear development of Mycenaean society as a process of progressive assimilation of mainland Greek cultures with earlier Aegean civilizations, influenced by but not wholly dependent on Cretan models, and rooted in indigenous Middle Helladic traditions].

[American non-fiction, Ancient history, Archaeolology, Sociology, Antropology]. [Коль, Филип Л. `Создание Евразии бронзового века.`]. 1st published in 2007. `This book provides an overview of Bronze Age societies of Western Eurasia through an investigation of the archaeological record. Philip L. Kohl outlines the long-term processes and patterns of interaction that link these groups together in a shared historical trajectory of development. Interactions took the form of the exchange of raw materials and finished goods, the spread and sharing of technologies, and the movements of peoples from one region to another. Kohl reconstructs economic activities from subsistence practices to the production and exchange of metals and other materials. He also examines long-term processes, such as the development of more mobile forms of animal husbandry, which were based on the introduction and large-scale utilization of oxen-driven wheeled wagons and, subsequently, the domestication and riding of horses, the spread of metalworking technologies and exploitation of new centers of metallurgical production, changes in systems of exchange from those dominated by the movement of luxury goods to those in which materials essential for maintaining and securing the reproduction of the societies participating in the exchange network accompanied and/or supplanted the trade in precious materials, and increasing evidence for militarism and political instabilities as reflected in shifts in settlement patterns, including increases in fortified sites and quantitative and qualitative advances in weaponry. Kohl also argues forcefully that the main task of the archaeologist should be to write culture-history on a spatially and temporally grand scale in an effort to detect large, macrohistorical processes of interaction and shared development.` [Philip L. Kohl (1946 -2022) was an American anthropologist. He was a professor at Wellesley College.

[American non-fiction, Antropology, Ancient civilizations, History, Human evolution, Prehistoric peoples]. [Риствет, Лорен. `В начале: всемирная история от эволюции человека до первых государств`]. `This is a book about `firsts.` Here are the stories of human evolution, of the enormously long Paleolithic era of `gathering and hunting` societies, of the several distinct breakthroughs to agriculture, and of the emergence of the earliest cities, states, and civilizations. While drawing on the most recent historical and archeological scholarship, the author tells these stories in highly engaging language wholly accessible to beginning college students and other nonspecialists. Reflecting the central concerns of World History, this book sketches these landmark developments on a global canvas. Comparative case studies illustrate variations within themes such as the difference between Paleolithic communities in Australia and Central Europe, between the Agricultural Revolutions of the Middle East and Meso-America, or between the role of the state in ancient Mesopotamia and India. Highlighting both the separate paths and the intersecting journeys of diverse human communities, the book provides the essential but often neglected foundation on which all subsequent historical development was constructed.` [Lauren Ristvet received her B.A. from Yale in 1999 and her M.Phil. and Ph.D. from Cambridge in 2005. She specializes in Ancient Mediterranean and Near Eastern history and archaeology, with an emphasis on the formation and collapse of archaic states, landscape archaeology, human response to environmental disaster, and ancient imperialism].

[American non-fiction, Antropology, Ancient civilizations, History, Sociology]. [Тейнтер, Джозеф Э. `Крах сложных обществ`]. Tainter`s best-known work 1st published in 1988. It examines the collapse of Maya and Chacoan civilizations, and of the Western Roman Empire, in terms of network theory, energy economics and complexity theory. Tainter argues that sustainability or collapse of societies follow from the success or failure of problem-solving institutions and that societies collapse when their investments in social complexity and their energy subsidies reach a point of diminishing marginal returns. He recognizes collapse when a society involuntarily sheds a significant portion of its complexity.` [Joseph Anthony Tainter (1949-) is an American anthropologist and historian.

The author makes us see the astonishing sophistication and power of the paintings and tells us what is known about their creators, the Cro-Magnon people of some 40,000 years ago. He takes us through various theories - that the art was part of fertility or hunting rituals, or used for religious purposes, or was clan mythology - examining the ways interpretations have changed over time. Rich in detail, personalities, and history, the book is above all permeated with awe for those distant humans who developed - perhaps for the first time - both the ability for abstract thought and a profound and beautiful way to express it.` [Gregory Curtis (1944-) is an American editor and author, a graduate of Rice University and San Francisco State College].

[English non-fiction, Linguistics, Near East]. [`Древние языки Малой Азии`]. `This book, derived from the acclaimed `Cambridge Encyclopedia of the World`s Ancient Languages`, describes the ancient languages of Asia Minor, for the convenience of students and specialists working in that area. Each chapter of the work focuses on an individual language or, in some instances, a set of closely related varieties of a language. Providing a full descriptive presentation, each of these chapters examines the writing system(s), phonology, morphology, syntax and lexicon of that language, and places the language within its proper linguistic and historical context. The volume brings together an international array of scholars, each a leading specialist in ancient language study. While designed primarily for scholars and students of linguistics, this work will prove invaluable to all whose studies take them into the realm of ancient language.` [Roger Dillard Woodard (1951-) is a Professor of the Classics at the University of Buffalo. He received his Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. His research interests include Greek literature, Roman, Greek, and Indo-European religion and myth, anthropology of Greece and Rome, Greek alphabet and other writing systems, Indo-European linguistics, the interaction between the Near East and Greece`].

[English non-fiction, Ancient history, Prehistoric peoples, Archaeology, Sociology]. [Дьюринг, Бледа С. `Доисторическая эпоха Малой Азии: от сообществ охотников-собирателей до раннегородских обществ`]. `In this book, the author offers an archaeological analysis of Asia Minor, the area equated with much of modern-day Turkey, from 20,000 to 2,000 BC. During this period human societies moved from small-scale hunter-gatherer groups to complex and hierarchical communities with economies based on agriculture and industry. The author traces the spread of the Neolithic way of life, which ultimately reached across Eurasia, and the emergence of key human developments, including the domestication of animals, metallurgy, fortified towns and long-distance trading networks. Situated at the junction between Europe and Asia, Asia Minor has often been perceived as a bridge for the movement of technologies and ideas. By contrast, this book argues that cultural developments followed a distinctive trajectory in Asia Minor from as early as 9,000 BC.` [Bleda During is a Dutch archaeologist. He is a Professor (since 2022) at the Faculty of Archaeology at Leiden University.

[Australian English non-fiction, Ancient history, War History, Near East]. [Брайс, Тревор. `Хеттский воин`]. 1st published in 2007. `Written by one of the world`s leading experts on the Hittites, this book charts the rise and fall of a warrior people famed for their ferocity, who built an empire which stretched from Mesopotamia to Syria and Palestine. Regarded as barbarians by the Egyptians, for a hundred years the Hittites fought a draining war against the Egyptians - the climax of which saw the Hittites defeated and their 400-year-old empire destroyed at the Battle of Qadesh (1274 BC). Thought to have invented iron, used to forge their weapons, and known for pioneering a revolutionary three-man chariot system, Bryce details the day-to-day lives of Hittite warriors. He examines their training, equipment, tactics, and motivations, as well as their unique attitude to religion which saw them adopt the gods of the people they conquered. The inclusion of a Hittite manual which describes, in detail, the training of horses and the warriors that rode them in battle, as well as original full color illustrations make this book a fascinating and enlightening addition to an often ignored subject.` [Trevor Robert Bryce (1940-) is an Australian historian, author, lecturer, professor and Hittitologist specializing in ancient and classical Near-eastern history.

[English, Russian non-fiction, Ancient history, War History, Near East]. [Носов, Константин Сергеевич. `Хеттские укрепления 1650-700 до н.э.`]. `In the 2nd half of the 3rd millennium BC the Indo-European tribe known as the Hittites migrated and settled in Central Anatolia, at that time a land of small city-states whose rulers lived in fortresses. These fortifications enabled the Hittites to transform themselves into a Bronze Age super-power, defeating the Egyptians at Kadesh in c.1274 BC. The author examines the fortifications constructed by the Hittites in their efforts to sustain and then halt the decline of their once flourishing empire. Providing an in-depth anatomy of the fortresses, focusing on the major sites of the principal city Hattusha as well as sites at Alacahoyuk and Karatepe with full-colour reconstructions, this is an intriguing glimpse into the history of an empire which at its height rivalled the Egyptians and Assyrians. It concludes with an examination of these sites as they survive today, information that will appeal both to history enthusiasts and tourists visiting the area.` [Konstantin Nossov (1972-) is a researcher in and advisor on ancient and medieval arms, armour and warfare, as well as the author of numerous books and articles on the subject.

[Маккуин Дж.Г. `Хетты и их современники в Малой Азии`]. 1st published in 1975 (revised 1986). `A scholarly historical and archaeological study that examines the ancient Hittite civilization in Anatolia, focusing on its origins, rise to power, and eventual collapse. This revised and enlarged edition to incorporate new excavations and research findings. The work describes the Hittites as an Indo-European-speaking people who established a kingdom nearly 4,000 years ago, achieving dominance in the ancient Middle East by conquering Babylon and challenging Egyptian forces under Pharaoh Ramses II at the Battle of Qadesh, before their empire fell around 1180 BC amid invasions by the enigmatic Sea Peoples. The author investigates critical elements of Hittite success, including the sourcing of essential metals such as tin and copper, their diplomatic and military interactions with Aegean contemporaries including the Trojans and Mycenaean Greeks, and archaeological evidence from major sites, particularly the temples and defensive ramparts of the Hittite capital at Hattusas (Bogazkoy). The book features numerous illustrations to support its analysis of Hittite material culture and political history. The study remains a key resource for understanding the Hittites` role as a major power in the Late Bronze Age Near East and their connections to neighboring cultures.` [J.G.

[British non-fiction, Ancient History, Archaeology, Civilization of Hittites]. [Берни, Чарльз. `Хетты от А до Я`]. 1st published as `Historical Dictionary of the Hittites` (2004). `The Hittites created one of the great civilizations of the ancient world, although it remained almost unknown until excavations in the early 20th century revealed the extent and importance of its culture. For nearly five centuries the Hittites controlled vast areas of Anatolia, by direct or indirect rule, engaging in almost incessant warfare, and, at the same time, making significant contributions to culture and religion of the region. The book covers Hittite civilization from its origins through hundreds of entries on important persons, places, essential institutions, and the significant aspects of the society, Kingship, government, economy, material culture, and warfare of this ancient people. A 16-page photospread, introductory essay, chronology, and bibliography complement the dictionary entries. Scholars, students, and general readers who are interested in ancient history will find this a valuable reference work about the Hittites and about the rediscovery of the Hittites by modern archaeology.` [Charles Allen Burney (1930-2024) was a British archaeologist.

[Гимбутас, Мария. `Живые богини`]. 1st published in 1989. `In this study, archaeologist and prehistorian Marija Gimbutas brings prepatriarchal civilization to vibrant life. Pioneering in archaeomythology - the interdisciplinary field based on archaeology, comparative mythology, and folklore - Gimbutas unequivocally establishes the existence of a Goddess religion in Neolithic Europe with its roots in the Paleolithic. Through the interpretation of images and symbols, she reveals the basic worldview of these ancient European matriarchal cultures and decodes the symbolic language that has remained embedded in our civilization. This most complete rendering of our nature-embracing ancestral culture resurrects a lost world that is the authentic genesis of our Western heritage. Here is a `pictorial script` of the prehistoric Goddess religion that clearly demonstrates how our ancestors lived a life united with nature. Illustrated with nearly 2000 symbolic artifacts-sculptures, figurines, temple models. frescos, vases, sacrificial containers, the book forges a framework that supports the recovery of a long-suppressed portion of our European heritage.` [Marija Gimbutas (1921-1994) was a Lithuanian archaeologist and anthropologist known for her research into the Neolithic and Bronze Age cultures of `Old Europe` and for her Kurgan hypothesis, which located the Proto-Indo-European homeland in the Pontic Steppe.

Mainstream archaeology dismissed Gimbutas`s later works for being `not very good in critical analysis. ... She amasses all the data and then leaps from it to conclusions without any intervening argument`].

[Гимбутас, Мария. `Живые богини`]. 1st published in 1999. `This study crowns a lifetime of innovative, influential work by one of the XXth-century`s most remarkable scholars. Marija Gimbutas wrote and taught with rare clarity in her original - and originally shocking - interpretation of prehistoric European civilization. Gimbutas flew in the face of contemporary archaeology when she reconstructed goddess-centered cultures that predated historic patriarchal cultures by many thousands of years. This volume, which was close to completion at the time of her death, contains the distillation of her studies, combined with new discoveries, insights, and analysis. Editor Miriam Robbins Dexter has added introductory and concluding remarks, summaries, and annotations. The 1st part of the book is an accessible, beautifully illustrated summation of all Gimbutas`s earlier work on `Old European` religion, together with her ideas on the roles of males and females in ancient matrilineal cultures. The 2nd part of the book brings her knowledge to bear on what we know of the goddesses today - those who, in many places and in many forms, live on.` [Marija Gimbutas (1921-1994) was a Lithuanian archaeologist and anthropologist known for her research into the Neolithic and Bronze Age cultures of `Old Europe` and for her Kurgan hypothesis, which located the Proto-Indo-European homeland in the Pontic Steppe.

[Брэдли, Ричард. `Наскальное искусство и доисторическая эпоха Атлантической Европы: подписывание земель (местностей)`]. `Taking Atlantic Europe as its area of focus, the book deals with Neolithic and Bronze Age rock art in the British Isles and in Galicia. Along the Atlantic seaboard, from Scotland to Spain, are numerous rock carvings made four to five thousand years ago, whose interpretation poses a major challenge to the archaeologist. In the first full-length treatment of the subject, based largely on new fieldwork, the author argues that these carvings should be interpreted as a series of symbolic messages that are shared between monuments, artefacts and natural places in the landscape. He discusses the cultural setting of the rock carvings and the ways in which they can be interpreted in relation to ancient land use, the creation of ritual monuments and the burial of the dead. Integrating this fascinating yet little-known material into the mainstream of prehistoric studies, the author demonstrates that these carvings played a fundamental role in the organization of the prehistoric landscape.` [Richard John Bradley (1946-) is a British archaeologist and academic specialising in European prehistory, particularly Prehistoric Britain. From 1987 to 2013, he was Professor of Archaeology at the University of Reading, where he is now emeritus professor. Bradley has published extensively on European prehistory and prehistoric Britain. By 1996, `British Archaeology` magazine described Bradley as one of the most respected archaeologists in his field].

[American non-fiction, History, Linguistics, Archaeology, Anthropology, Genetics, Ethnology]. [`Миграции человечества в древнем мире. Мультидисциплинарный подход`]. 1st published in 2009. `This collection originated from a working conference at the Santa Fe Institute of outstanding papers from internationally renowned scholars, worldwide in scope, is to clarify the need for multidisciplinary approaches to the topic of human migration. The very original analyses and discussions presented here return the concept of migration to its rightful place among the known processes of human evolutionary change and variation. The study of human migration is integral to the understanding of essential features of human experience. Many ancient civilizations were created and modified through migrations, and migrations of later periods gave rise to the modern ethnic map of the world, affecting ideology, economy and politics. Historically, most human migration studies have taken a more specialized approach, often focusing on archaeology or linguistics. Admixture is a common outcome of migration, and human populations are all amalgams of ancestors, neighbors, and others. As a result, the volume argues, no `pure` races, cultures, or languages can exist.` [Peter N. Peregrine is professor and chair of anthropology at Lawrence University, Appleton, Wisconsin. He is coeditor of the `Encyclopedia of Prehistory` | Ilia Peiros is a historical and comparative linguist, and a research associate at the Santa Fe Institute and an affiliate of the Department of Linguistics and Applied Linguistics at the University of Melbourne, Australia | Marcus W.

Moreover, Bernal asserted that this knowledge had been deliberately obscured by the rampant racism of XIXth-century Europeans who could not abide the notion that Greek society - for centuries recognized as the originating culture of Europe - had its origins in Africa and Southwest Asia. In `Black Athena Writes Back` Bernal provides additional documentation to back up his thesis, as well as offering persuasive explanations of why traditional scholarship on the subject remains inaccurate and why specific arguments lobbed against his theories are themselves faulty.

By 15,000 BC, humans had migrated from northeastern Asia across the frozen Bering land bridge to the Americas. When the last Ice Age came to an end, the Bering Strait refilled with water, dividing America from Eurasia. This division continued until Christopher Columbus voyaged to the New World in the XVth century. The author compares the development of humankind in the Old World and the New between 15,000 BC and AD 1,500. Combining the most up-to-date knowledge in archaeology, anthropology, geology, meteorology, cosmology, and mythology, this study offers uniquely revealing insight into what it means to be human.` [Peter Frank Patrick Watson (1943-) is a British intellectual historian and former journalist, now perhaps best known for his work in the history of ideas.

Дейл. `Природа искусства палеолита`]. `With more than 3,000 images, this landmark study offers the most comprehensive representation of Paleolithic art ever published and a radical (and controversial) new way of interpreting it. The variety and content of these images - most of which have never been available or easily accessible to nonspecialists or even researchers - will astonish you. This wonderfully written work of natural history, of observation and evidence, tells the great story of our deepest past. R.

He employs a mix of ethology, evolutionary biology, and human universals to access these distant cultures and their art and artifacts. Guthrie uses innovative forensic techniques to reveal new information: estimating, for example, the ages and sexes of some of the artists, he establishes that Paleolithic art was not just the creation of male shamans.` [Guthrie, R.

[American non-fiction, Prehistory, General Anthropology, Shamanism, History of art, History of religion, Neuropsychology, Archeology]. [Уитли, Дэвид С. `Наскальная живопись и человеческий дух: истоки творчества и веры`]. `The prehistoric art discovered in caves throughout France and Spain raises many questions about early human culture. What do these paintings and symbols mean? How can we explain the sudden flourishing of artistic creativity at such a high level? And in what ways does this artwork reflect the underlying belief system, worldview, and life of the people who created it? In this discussion of ancient art and religion, the author - one of the world`s leading experts on cave paintings - guides the reader in an exploration of these questions, while sharing his firsthand experiences in visiting these sites. To grasp what drove these ancient artists to create these masterpieces, and to understand the origin of myth and religion, as Whitley explains, is to appreciate what makes us human. Moreover, he broadens our understanding of the genesis of creativity and myth by proposing a radically new and original theory that weds two seemingly warring camps from separate disciplines. On the one hand, archaeologists specializing in prehistoric cave paintings have argued that the visionary rituals of shamans led to the creation of this expressive art. They consider shamanism to be the earliest known form of religion. By contrast, evolutionary psychologists view the emergence of religious beliefs as a normal expression of the human mind. In their eyes, the wild and ecstatic trances of shamans were a form of aberrant behavior. Far from being typical representatives of ancient religion, shamans were exceptions to the normal rule of early religion. Whitley resolves the controversy by interweaving the archaeological evidence with the latest findings of cutting-edge neuroscience. He thereby rewrites the understanding of shamanism and its connection with artistic creativity, myth, and religion. The book combines a colorful narrative describing Whitley`s personal explorations at key archaeological sites with robust scientific research.` [David S. Whitley specializes in the prehistoric archaeology and ethnography of far western North America, with particular interests in sacred sites, rock art, chronometrics and cultural heritage management. He has also worked in southern Africa, the European Upper Paleolithic and Guatemala. In 2001 he received the Thomas King Award from the Society for California Archaeology for Excellence in Cultural Resource Management].

[South-African English non-fiction, Prehistory, General Anthropology, Neuropsychology, Shamanism, History of Art, Archeology]. [Льюис-Уильямс, Дэвид. `Разум в пещере: сознание и истоки искусства`]. 1st published in 2002, winner of the American Historical Association`s James Henry Breasted Prize (2003) for the best book in English in any field of history prior to CE 1000. `Since its discovery, cave art has provoked great curiosity about why it appeared when and where it did, how it was made, and what it meant to the communities that created it. David Lewis-Williams proposes that the explanation for this lies in the evolution of the human mind. Cro-Magnons, unlike the Neanderthals, possessed a more advanced neurological makeup that enabled them to experience shamanistic trances and vivid mental imagery. It became important for people to `fix,` or paint, these images on cave walls, which they perceived as the membrane between their world and the spirit world from which the visions came. Over time, new social distinctions developed as individuals exploited their hallucinations for personal advancement, and the first truly modern society emerged. Illuminating glimpses into the ancient mind are skillfully interwoven here with the still-evolving story of modern-day cave discoveries and research. This book is a superb piece of detective work, casting light on the darkest mysteries of our earliest ancestors while strengthening our wonder at their aesthetic achievements.` [James David Lewis-Williams (1934-) is a South African archaeologist. He is best known for his research on southern African San (Bushmen) rock art. He is the founder and previous director of the Rock Art Research Institute and is currently professor emeritus of cognitive archaeology at the University of the Witwatersrand (WITS). He revolutionized the understanding of cave paintings, proposing that they be viewed not as simple depictions of everyday life, but as reflections of spiritual experience and rituals. Lewis-Williams linked cave images with `altered states of consciousness.` According to his theory, many abstract patterns and scenes are visualizations of hallucinations experienced by shamans during trance. He applied his findings on San paintings to the European Paleolithic (for example, Lascaux Cave), suggesting the universality of shamanic practices among early humanity].

[British non-fiction, Alternative science, Ancient history, Anthropology, Cro-Magnons, Human evolution, Genetic psychology, Brain evolution]. [Гуч, Стэн. `Наследие неандертальцев: возрождение наших генетических и культурных истоков`]. `In this book, eminent psychologist and paranormal researcher Stan Gooch brings together the wide-ranging investigative strands of his life-time of study of the human brain. One of the world`s leading experts on the influence of the Neanderthals on the cultural and biological development of humanity, Gooch contends that the Neanderthals` enlarged cerebellum was a source of deep connection with the psychic and dream worlds, which remains extant in modern humans in paranormal phenomena that conventional science cannot explain. Gooch offers scientific evidence of the crossbreeding between Neanderthals and Cro-Magnons that is responsible for the dichotomous nature of our feelings, thoughts, impressions, beliefs, and even our cultural mores and politics. The hybrid vigor produced by this mating has gifted modern humans with abilities and sensibilities that the scientific establishment and conventional educational system entirely ignore. Gooch calls for recognition and acceptance of the dominance of our genetic makeup in determining all our behaviors and traits. Only by embracing this understanding of our essential nature will we be able to achieve any degree of peace and unity in the face of the diametrically opposed instincts of our genetic heritage.` Includes bibliographical references and index. [Stanley Albert Gooch (1932-2010) was a British psychologist and author who is probably best known as the proponent of a `hybrid-origin theory` of human evolution. He began his career as a highly regarded psychological researcher who studied the evolution and history of the brain. Gooch`s theories have generally been dismissed by academia. Thinker and novelist Colin Wilson, on the other hand, argues that Gooch`s work forms `one of the most impressive and exciting intellectual structures of the 2nd half of the XXth century`].

[British English non-fiction]. [Рескин, Джон. `Плата последним. Политэкономия искусства. Эссе по политической экономии`]. In `Unto This Last` (1860), Ruskin rejected the division of labour as dehumanising (separating the labourer from the product of his work), and argued that the false `science` of political economy failed to consider the social affections that bind communities together. He articulated an extended metaphor of household and family, drawing on Plato and Xenophon to demonstrate the communal and sometimes sacrificial nature of true economics. For Ruskin, all economies and societies are ideally founded on a politics of social justice. His ideas influenced the concept of the `social economy`, characterised by networks of charitable, co-operative and other non-governmental organisations. `Unto This Last` later proved highly influential. The essays were praised and paraphrased in `Gujarati` by Mohandas Gandhi, a wide range of autodidacts cited their positive impact, the economist John A. Hobson and many of the founders of the British Labour party credited them as an influence. [John Ruskin (1819-1900) was an English polymath - a writer, lecturer, art historian, art critic, draughtsman and philanthropist of the Victorian era. He wrote on subjects as varied as art, architecture, political economy, education, museology, geology, botany, ornithology, literature, history, and myth. Ruskin`s writing styles and literary forms were equally varied. He wrote essays and treatises, poetry and lectures, travel guides and manuals, letters and even a fairy tale. He also made detailed sketches and paintings of rocks, plants, birds, landscapes, architectural structures and ornamentation. The elaborate style that characterised his earliest writing on art gave way in time to plainer language designed to communicate his ideas more effectively. In all of his writing, he emphasised the connections between nature, art and society. From the 1850s, he championed the Pre-Raphaelites, who were influenced by his ideas. Today, his ideas and concerns are widely recognised as having anticipated interest in environmentalism, sustainability, ethical consumerism, and craft.].

[British non-fiction, 2nd World War History]. [Бивор, Энтони. `Берлин: Падение 1945`]. 1st published in 2002. The book revisits the events of the Battle of Berlin in 1945 and narrates how the Red Army defeated the Wehrmacht and brought an end to Hitler`s Third Reich as well as an end to the war in Europe.

Beevor received the first `Trustees` Award` of the `Longman-History Today` Awards in 2003. The book encountered criticism, especially in Russia, centering on the book`s discussion of atrocities committed by the Red Army against German civilians. In particular, the book describes widespread rape of German women and female Soviet forced labourers, both before and after the war. Beevor responded by stating that he used excerpts from the report of General Tsigankov, the chief of the political department of the 1st Ukrainian Front, as a source. He wrote: `...the bulk of the evidence on the subject came from Soviet sources, especially the NKVD reports in GARF (State Archive of the Russian Federation), and a wide range of reliable personal accounts`.` [Antony James Beevor (1946-) is a British military historian.

[British non-fiction, 2nd World War History]. [Кершоу, Иэн. `Удача дьявола: История операции `Валькирия``]. An adapted extract (2009) from 2-volume Hitler`s biography, vol. 2 `Hitler. 1936-1945. Nemesis`(2000). A film tie-in edition. `The July 1944 plot to kill Adolf Hitler was a desperate attempt by a group of senior officers to redeem Germany`s honour and end the Second World War. They were heroic because they knew their chances of success were slight and that the result of their failure would undoubtedly be a terrible death. They wanted to leave a message for later generations: that there were Germans who understood the evils of Nazism and were willing to act against it. A brilliant account of just what happened in those fateful days at Hitler`s `Wolf`s Lair` headquarters, when his opponents came so astonishingly close to assassinating what is one of the modern era`s most terrible figures. This extraordinary story is the basis for Bryan Singer`s major film `Valkyrie` (2009). ` [Ian Kershaw (1943-) is an English historian whose work has chiefly focused on the social history of 20th-century Germany. He is regarded by many as one of the world`s foremost experts on Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany, and is particularly noted for his biographies of Hitler. He is a follower of the German historian Martin Broszat, and lists as his major intellectual influences also Hans Mommsen, Alan Milward, Timothy Mason, Hans-Ulrich Wehler, William Carr, and Jeremy Noakes. Until his retirement, he was a professor at the University of Sheffield. Kershaw served as historical adviser on numerous BBC documentaries].

[British non-fiction, 2nd World War History, Biography]. [Кершоу, Иэн. `Гитлер`]. 1st published in 2011. An abridgment with the new Preface (2008) of 2 volumes Hitler`s biography: vol. 1 `Hitler. 1889-1936. Hubris` (1998) and vol. 2 `Hitler. 1936-1945. Nemesis`(2000). `Kershaw`s biography is informed by his `Working towards the Fuehrer` theory. He argues that radicalisation and atrocities in Nazi Germany were often driven by subordinates competing for advancement and aiming to follow Hitler`s broadly outlined wishes. In the introduction, Kershaw describes Hitler as an uninteresting character (`an unperson` whose life outside of politics was `a void`) and argues that Hitler is instead remarkable because of the power and reverence that he was able to obtain. He warns against using an approach that `personalizes history`, instead arguing that social, cultural and economic conditions were more important, while still agreeing that Hitler had a role and culpability in the events.` [Ian Kershaw (1943-) is an English historian whose work has chiefly focused on the social history of 20th-century Germany.

In almost every major war there comes a point where defeat looms for one side and its rulers cut a deal with the victors, if only in an attempt to save their own skins. In Hitlers Germany, nothing of this kind happened: in the end the regime had to be stamped out town by town with an almost unprecedented level of brutality. Just what made Germany keep on fighting? Why did its rulers not cut a deal to save their own skins? And why did ordinary people continue to obey the Fuhrers suicidal orders, with countless Germans executing their own countrymen for desertion or defeatism?` [Ian Kershaw (1943-) is an English historian whose work has chiefly focused on the social history of 20th-century Germany.

[British non-fiction, 2nd World War History]. [Джонс, Майкл. `Тотальная война: От Сталинграда до Берлина`]. `In February 1943, German forces surrendered to the Red Army at Stalingrad and the tide of war turned. By May 1945 Soviet soldiers had stormed Berlin and brought down Hitlers regime. Total War follows the fortunes of these fighters as they liberated Russia and the Ukraine from the Nazi invader and fought their way into the heart of the Reich. It reveals the horrors they experienced - the Holocaust, genocide and the mass murder of Soviet POWs - and shows the Red Army, brutalized by war, taking its terrible revenge on the German civilian population. For the first time Russian veterans are candid about the terrible atrocities their own army committed. But they also describe their struggle to raise themselves from the abyss of hatred. Their war against the Nazis - which in large part brought the Second World War in Europe to an end - is a tarnished but deeply moving story of sacrifice and redemption.` [Michael Christopher Emlyn Jones (born 5 December 1940) is a British historian. He studied history at Oxford, and taught in Exeter, then Nottingham from 1967 to 2002, specialising in French medieval history. He is also fascinated by timeless themes of military history: leadership, morale and motivation at moments of crisis - and how people respond to challenges against the odds. Among his history titles he has written on the battles of Agincourt, Bosworth, Stalingrad and Leningrad, and in `After Hitler`, provided an account of the last days of the Second World War in Europe. He is a member of several British and Breton historical societies].

[Collectible, Russian fiction, White emigre]. [Газданов, Гайто. `Призрак Александра Вольфа`]. A novel, written in 1939-46 and 1st published in 1947-48. 1st English translation, 1st Gazdanov`s book published in English. 4th and most famous novel, is set mostly in post WWII Paris, and features a journalist who thought he had shot and killed an assailant in Russia, only to find that man, who had haunted him, was alive and in Paris. The writer excels in creating characters and plots in which cynicism and despair remain in precarious yet convincing balance with a courageous acceptance of life and even a certain joie de vivre. [Gaito Gazdanov (1903-1971) was a Russian emigre writer of Ossetian descent, freemason, who lived in Paris. He took part in the Russian Civil War on the side of Wrangel`s White Army. In 1920, he left Russia and settled in Paris, where he was employed in the Renault factories. Later, he earned his living as a taxicab driver. His early short stories and novels dealt with this Russian experience. But by the mid-1930s, the years in Paris turned Gazdanov`s themes toward life, Russian or French, in France. Gazdanov`s prose is characterized by a tendency towards existentialism, sensual expressiveness, a sense of the breath of life, and the value of every moment. Gazdanov was a member of the French Resistance in occupied France. In 1953, he joined Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty as an editor. | Nicholas Wreden (Николай Романович Вреден, 1901-1955) was born in St. Petersburg into the famous family. The Bolshevik revolution broke out in 1917 while he was a midshipman at the Russian Imperial Naval Academy. He joined the underground opposing the revolutionaries, escaped to Finland and fought in the Baltic area. In 1920 he came to the United States. Since 1926, he had been associated with the book business as an author of an autobiographical account of the Russian revolution, editor, translator of several books by Russian authors, salesman and publishing executive. Having joined the staff of `E.P. Dutton & Co.` in 1944, he was placed in charge of the `Dutton` editorial department and was elected vice president and a member of the board of directors. While with `Dutton` he was appointed director of the `Chekhov Publishing House` organized here to issue books in Russian for Soviet exiles as a help in their adjustment to life in a free society. He moved to `Little Brown` as editor in chief in June, 1954, and became vice president and a director].

[British non-fiction, 2nd World War History]. [Холланд, Джеймс. `Битва за Британию: пять месяцев, изменивших историю (май-октябрь 1940)`]. 1st published in 2010. The book paints a stirring picture of an extraordinary summer when the fate of the world hung by a thread. Historian James Holland has written the definitive account of those months based on extensive new research from around the world, including thousands of new interviews with people on both sides of the battle. If Britain`s defenses collapsed, Hitler would have dominated all of Europe. With France facing defeat and British forces pressed back to the Channel, there were few who believed Britain could survive, but, thanks to a sophisticated defensive system and the combined efforts of the Royal Air Force, the Royal Navy, and the defiance of a new prime minister, Britain refused to give in. From clashes between coastal convoys and Schnellboote in the Channel to astonishing last stands in Flanders, slaughter by U-boats in an icy Atlantic, and dramatic aerial battles over England, the book tells this epic World War II story in a fresh and compelling voice. Holland prefers his history to be about people, and his dazzling cast of characters includes civilians and servicemen, men and women, young and old. It may take him more than 300 pages to get to the Battle of Britain proper, yet the pace never flags. [James Holland (1970-) is an English popular historian, author and broadcaster, who specialises in the history of the 2nd World War].

In this book published 60 years after World War II, the author argues that a number of misconceptions about the war are still common and then sets out to address them. Two of his main claims are that, contrary to popular belief in the West, the dominant part of the conflict took place in Eastern Europe between the two totalitarian systems of the century - communism and fascism - and that Stalin`s USSR was as bad as Hitler`s Germany. The subtitle `No Simple Victory` does therefore not just refer to the losses and suffering the Allies had to endure in order to defeat the enemy, but also the difficult moral choice the Western democracies had to make when allying themselves with one criminal regime in order to defeat another.` [Ivor Norman Richard Davies (1939-) is a British and Polish historian, known for his publications on the history of Europe, Poland and the United Kingdom.

[British non-fiction, expedition, Tibet].

Central to this chilling tale is the complex and problematic character of Ernst Schafer, the expedition`s leader, a serious and extremely competent young zoologist. Though they had their own projects to pursue, Schafer`s team spent most of its time in Tibet doing Himmler`s bidding, which included sowing the seeds of rebellion, undermining Britain`s relationship with the Tibetan ruling class, and confirming Himmler`s grotesque theories about the origins of the Aryan race. It asks penetrating questions about the relationship between science and politics and sheds new light on the occult theories that obsessed Himmler and his fellow Nazis. Supplemented with dozens of photos taken during the expedition, this book provides deep insight into one of the strangest episodes in the tumultuous months just prior to the outbreak of World War II and tells the tale of one of the most perverse, eccentric, and frightening scientific expeditions in history.` [Christopher Hale is an award-winning non-fiction writer and documentary producer who has made films for the BBC, Channel and all the major broadcasters, including WGBH and the Discovery Channel. He has made numerous films about both science and the arts, many combining cutting-edge anthropology with high adventure.

Munro) stands alongside Anton Chekhov and O`Henry as a master of the short story. His extraordinary stories are a mixture of humorous satire, irony and the macabre, in which the stupidities and hypocrisy of conventional society are viciously pilloried.` [Hector Hugh Munro (1870-1916), popularly known by his pen name Saki and also frequently as H.H. Munro, was a British writer whose witty, mischievous and sometimes macabre stories satirise Edwardian society and culture. The pen name `Saki` is a reference to a figure in Edward Fitzgerald`s translation of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. The saq? is a symbolic and erotic figure in both Arabic and Persian wine poetry. Munro is considered to be a master of the short story and is often compared to O. Henry and Dorothy Parker. Influenced by Oscar Wilde, Lewis Carroll and Rudyard Kipling, Munro himself influenced A.A. Milne, Noel Coward and P.G. Wodehouse. Much of Saki`s work contrasts the conventions and hypocrisies of Edwardian England with the ruthless but straightforward life-and-death struggles of nature].

James`s scholarly work is still highly regarded, but he is best remembered for his ghost stories, which are considered by many critics and authors as the finest in the English language and widely influential on modern horror. James redefined the ghost story for the new century by abandoning many of the formal Gothic cliches of his predecessors, and is noted for his use of realism and dry humour to ground the stories and contrast with the supernatural elements.

[British English fiction, Historical fantasy, Norse mythology]. [Харрис, Джоанн М. `Евангелие от Локи` (`Руны`, [в 4-х кн.], кн. 3)]. A novel (2014), finalist of the `Mythopoeic Fantasy Award for Adult Literature`(2015). `With his notorious reputation for trickery and deception, and an ability to cause as many problems as he solves, Loki is a Norse god like no other. Demon-born, he is viewed with deepest suspicion by his fellow gods who will never accept him as one of their own and for this he vows to take his revenge. But while Loki is planning the downfall of Asgard and the humiliation of his tormentors, greater powers are conspiring against the gods and a battle is brewing that will change the fate of the Worlds. From his recruitment by Odin from the realm of Chaos, through his years as the go-to man of Asgard, to his fall from grace in the build-up to Ragnarok, this is the unofficial history of the world`s ultimate trickster.` [Joanne Michele Sylvie Harris (1964-) is a British author. She was a teacher of French for 15 years. Since then she has written over 30 books in a number of genres, including fantasy, psychological thriller, novellas, short stories and non-fiction. Harris` books often feature themes of women`s empowerment, folklore, motherhood, community, outsiders and outcasts, and food. Repeated themes in Harris` books include: food as a means of understanding character, the dynamic between feasting and fasting, motherhood and the patriarchy, tensions within communities, outsiders and outcasts, religious intolerance and `the magic of everyday things`. Many of Harris` books are about women who challenge the status quo and the way in which women are perceived in society. Harris also regularly uses folklore and myth in her novels, giving a modern, original spin to traditional stories. Her books have been praised for their multi-layered storytelling, use of culinary metaphors and arresting plot twists. Harris`s work has received multiple awards, including two Whitaker Gold Awards and one Whitaker Platinum Award, and is published in over 50 countries].

[British non-fiction, Journalism, Indonesia, Iraq, Australia]. [Пилджер, Джон. `Новые правители мира`]. `John Pilger is one of the worlds renowned investigative journalists and documentary filmmakers. In this classic book, with an updated introduction, he reveals the secrets and illusions of modern imperialism. Beginning with Indonesia, he shows how General Suhartos bloody seizure of power in the 1960s was part of a western design to impose a global economy on Asia. A million Indonesians died as the price for being the World Banks model pupil. In a shocking chapter on Iraq, he delineates the true nature of the Wests war against the people of that country. And he dissects, piece by piece, the propaganda of the war on terror to expose its Orwellian truth. Finally, he looks behind the picture-postcard image of his homeland, Australia, to illuminate an enduring legacy of imperialism: the subjugation of the First Australians.` [John Richard Pilger (1939-2023) was an Australian journalist, writer, scholar and documentary filmmaker. From 1962, he was based mainly in Britain. He was also a visiting professor at Cornell University in New York. Pilger was a critic of American, Australian, and British foreign policy, which he considered to be driven by an imperialist and colonialist agenda. He criticised his native country`s treatment of Indigenous Australians. In the British print media, Pilger worked at the `Daily Mirror` from 1963 to 1986, and wrote a regular column for the `New Statesman` magazine from 1991 to 2014. Pilger won Britain`s Journalist of the Year Award in 1967 and 1979. His documentaries have gained awards in Britain and abroad. He came 4th in a poll of 50 heroes of all time by the `New Statesman` in May 2006].
