"In this, her third collection of poems, Rose McLarney considers themes including animals' symbolic roles in art and as indicators of ecological change, and how water can represent a large, troubled system or the exceptions of smaller, purer tributaries.

Lost art : the stories of missing masterpieces [videorecording]. by Charney, Noah,instructor.(CARDINAL)336797; Teaching Company,publisher.(CARDINAL)349444;
Lecturer, Noah Charney.Imagine a Museum of Lost Art. If this imaginary museum contained just the artwork we knew was lost-- whether from theft, purposeful destruction, vandalism, war, or the forces of nature--it would still contain more masterpieces than those in all the world's current museums combined. Imagine that! Art historian Noah Charney guides you through just such an imaginary museum. In 12 fascinating lectures accompanied by stunning graphics, you will hear the stories behind the theft and/or destruction of some of the world's most famous pieces of art. From the 21st-century Taliban's iconoclastic destruction of the 500-year-old Buddha Statues at Bamiyan to the earthquake that felled the Colossus of Rhodes in 226 BCE, no one knows how many great works of art have been destroyed or lost throughout history. Only very few have ever resurfaced.Closed captioning in EnglishDVD; NTSC; widescreen.

A history of fireworks : from their origins to the present day / by Withington, John,1947-author. (CARDINAL)355571;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 297-319) and index.Introduction -- From origins to Guy Fawkes -- From Guy Fawkes to an explosion of colour -- From the coming of colour to electrical firing -- Bigger, brighter, louder : electricity, electronics and computers -- Accidents, disasters, rules and regulations -- Fireworks in the arts -- Use, not ornament"This book illuminates the glittering history of fireworks, from their mysterious beginnings to the dazzling big-budget displays of today. It describes how they enthralled the world's royal courts and became a sensation across the British Empire. There are stories of innovations like 'living fireworks', fiercely fought international competitions and the technology behind modern showpieces viewed by millions. Practitioners say fireworks are an art, and they have inspired artists from Shakespeare, Handel, Dickens and Whistler to Katy Perry. But Withington also covers fireworks' practical uses - rescues at sea, attempts to control the weather - while not ignoring their dangers, accidents or efforts to make them safer." --
