Китайская Народная Республика является одним из крупнейших государств в мире. Однако, наше представление о нём складывается из набора стереотипов, которые в массе своей не соответствуют реальности. В книге затрагиваются не только аспекты культурно-исторического наследия, но и современный бизнес, поп-культура, мода, бренды и личности, определяющие образ современного Китая. Именно это мы обозначаем емким словом ICON. Мы старались сделать акцент на смысловых значениях, происхождении и символике вещей и явлений. Таким образом, Icons of China - это актуальная панорама как современного, так и культурного наследия, которое вплетено в ткань реальной жизни.

This is a book about one of the least known genres in the Orthodox artistic tradition, hagiographical icons. It contains Russian icons from museums and private collections, most of which are published here for the first time. Each one is accompanied by a brief note on the saint's life, iconography and hagiographical literature. All the icon scenes are furnished with inscriptions and some are magnified, making it possible to view the subject in considerable detail. The foreword provides an introduction to the development of hagiographical icons in Russian art. As one of the very few works in English on this fascinating subject, it will be of great interest and value to the specialist and general reader alike.

Dating back more than six thousand years, China is the world's oldest civilization and most populous nation. With its remarkable history, rich culture, and diversity of ethnic groups, China is an endlessly fascinating country. Sneaking a peek at an array of different homes, from ancient to modern, "Living in China" brings you to places that most will never have a chance to visit. Whether it's the Bamboo Wall by Kengo Kuma, a 600-year-old round earth house in Fujian, the artsy Shanghai apartment of a celebrated but banned Chinese writer, the Hong Kong residence of the owner of the China Clubs and Shanghai Tan, or an artist studio and home in the largest art community in the world, all of the interiors featured here capture intriguing facets of life in China today.

In 1850, China was the "sick man of Asia." Now it is set to become the most powerful nation on earth. The Penguin History of Modern China shows how turbulent that journey has been. For 150 years China has endured as victim of oppression, war, and famine. This makes its current position as arguably the most important global superpower all the more extraordinary.
