The world's largest democracy and a rising economic giant, India is now as well known across the globe for its mastery of computer technology as it is for its many-armed gods and its famous spiritual traditions. But India is also the world's most ancient surviving civilization, with unbroken continuity back into prehistory. India's history is a ten thousand year epic but for over two millennia, India has been at the center of world history: birthplace of two world religions, home of an extraordinary spectrum of music, dance, literature, science, mathematics, economics, and a revolutionary idea whose power has yet to diminish. It has seen successive invasions from Alexander the Great and Genghis Khan to Tamburlaine and the British, all of whom left their mark but all of whom succumbed--in the end--to India herself.Not ratedDVD; Region 1; Dolby Digital 5.1 surround; widescreen presentation, enhanced for 16x9 televisions.

- Maĭzhe nikoly ne navpaky : simeĭna saha v novelakh / by 880-01Matios, Maria,author.;
" "It is not the time that matters, but the nature of the person in the circumstances of the time" - the writer reveals this thesis because of the dramatic history of several Hutsul families during the First World War. Great passions of ordinary people, light illusion of mysticism, eternal dilemmas of love and hatered, sin-temptation, several tiered plot... Each character of this unusual drama has an unconditional alibi, unchallenged ideas and own judgments of honor. Consequently, each has the right to act in a way that cannot be foreseen by any logic or written law. The laws of honor come into conflict with the laws of the heart, because this has been the case since time immemorial, and almost never the other way around." --
