Beyond Borders
Author: Aleksandar Duric
Publisher: Marshall Cavendish International Asia Pte Ltd
ISBN: 9814751456
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
Born in Bosnia in the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, Aleksandar Duric overcame a difficult childhood to become a junior canoeing champion. Against all odds, he made an unlikely appearance at the 1992 Olympic Games whilst the fires of the Bosnian War raged in his homeland, a war that had tragic consequences for the Duric family. A nomadic career in football followed, before Duric finally found his feet – and his home – in Singapore. It was in this Southeast Asian nation that Duric truly made his name, becoming an all-conquering force in Singapore’s top domestic league and going on to represent the Singapore national team more than 50 times. Told in a refreshingly frank and honest manner, Beyond Borders is far more than a footballer’s memoir. Duric’s tale of tragedy and triumph, adversity and adventure, is as surprising as it is inspiring.

Pages : 351
Book Description
She’s only ever wanted one thing... Lady Isabella Resenfeld thought she’d found happiness with Lord Wistenberry, but when she’s abandoned two days after their wedding, her hopes are crushed, her youthful fantasies destroyed. She tries to find a way to come back to the surface, refusing to become a jaded bride, but on the journey to rediscovering herself, she never expected to be drawn to a man who is completely wrong for her. As the horror of the man she married finally comes to light, is it even possible to truly entrust her love to another? He yearns to fulfill the longings of her heart. Ridge Claymoore was born a common bastard. Raised in a brothel, he’s always craved something…more. The life of a spy runs through his veins, but even that has started to become stale and unfulfilling. When he’s tasked with securing Isabella’s welfare, he faces not only his immediate attraction to the copper-haired beauty, but his own growing restlessness. As intrigue and danger surround them, he has to decide if what he feels is strong enough to call love—or something even deeper.

Beyond Sight
Author: Ryan D. Giles
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
ISBN: 1487510047
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
Beyond Sight, edited by Ryan D. Giles and Steven Wagschal, explores the ways in which Iberian writers crafted images of both Old and New Worlds using the non-visual senses (hearing, smell, taste, and touch). The contributors argue that the uses of these senses are central to understanding Iberian authors and thinkers from the pre- and early modern periods. Medievalists delve into the poetic interiorizations of the sensorial plane to show how sacramental and purportedly miraculous sensory experiences were central to the effort of affirming faith and understanding indigenous peoples in the Americas. Renaissance and early modernist essays shed new light on experiences of pungent, bustling ports and city centres, and the exotic musical performances of empire. This insightful collection covers a wide array of approaches including literary and cultural history, philosophical aesthetics, affective and cognitive studies, and theories of embodiment. Beyond Sight expands the field of sensory studies to focus on the Iberian Peninsula and its colonies from historical, literary, and cultural perspectives.
