Stocking English | August 31, 2022 | ISBN: 1350023965 | True PDF | 272 pages | 4.6 MB A Cultural History of Sport in Antiquity covers the period 800 BCE to 600 CE. From the founding of the Olympics and Rome's celebratory games, sport permeated the cultural life of Greco-Roman antiquity almost as it does our own. Gymnasiums, public baths, monumental arenas, and circuses for chariot racing were constructed, and athletic contests proliferated. Sports-themed household objects were very popular, whilst the exploits of individual athletes, gladiators, and charioteers were immortalized in poetry, monuments, and the mosaic floors of the wealthy. ![]() A Cultural History of Sport in Antiquity (The Cultural Histories) by Paul Christesen, Charles H.

From the founding of the Olympics and Rome's celebratory games, sport permeated the cultural life of Greco-Roman antiquity almost as it does our own. Gymnasiums, public baths, monumental arenas, and circuses for chariot racing were constructed, and athletic contests proliferated. Sports-themed household objects were very popular, whilst the exploits of individual athletes, gladiators, and charioteers were immortalized in poetry, monuments, and the mosaic floors of the wealthy. This rich sporting culture attests to the importance of leisure among the middle and upper classes of the Greco-Roman world, but by 600 CE rising costs, barbarian invasions, and Christianity had swept it all away. ![]() A Bridge to Advanced Mathematics by Sebastian M.

This book brings together recent interdisciplinary perspectives on the medieval South Asian cults of the Yoginis, such as textual-philological, historical, art historical, indological, anthropological, ritual and terminological. The book discusses the medieval yoginī cult, as illustrated in early Śaiva tantric texts, and their representations in South Asian temple iconography. It looks at the roles and hypostases of yoginīs in contemporary religious traditions, as well as the transformations of yoginī-related ritual practices. In addition, this book systematizes the multiple meanings, and proposes definitions of the concept and models for integrating the semantic fields of 'yoginī.' Highlighting the importance of research from complementary disciplines for the exploration of complex themes in South Asian studies, this book is of interest to scholars of South Asian Studies and Religious Studies. ![]() iWar: War and Peace in the Information Age (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B01MTU4M2V | 2017 | 11 hours and 32 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 316 MB Author: Bill Gertz Narrator: Danny Campbell ![]() Your Best Day: A Guide To Make the Most Out of Any Day by Jonas Stark English | MP3@192 kbps | 32 min | 44.4 MB This guide will show you how to get the best out of your day and to do more things than you thought it would even be possible! ![]() We (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B0B2KTBQZ9 | 2022 | 5 hours and 15 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 272 MB Author: Charles Lindbergh Narrator: Tim Getman ![]() We Are the Middle of Forever: Indigenous Voices from Turtle Island on the Changing Earth (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B09V3HSSPH | 2022 | 13 hours and 38 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 389 MB Author: Dahr Jamail, Stan Rushworth Narrator: Shaun Taylor-Corbett ![]() Waves of Success by Pat Perry English | MP3@192 kbps | 2h 06m | 173.5 MB Two of the most important aspects of having a successful business is a focus on insightful leadership and making a positive impact- inside and outside of the office.
