 Название: The Barbarians. Warriors & Wars of the Dark Ages Автор: Tim Newark Издательство: Blandford Press Год: 1985 Формат: PDF Страниц: 166 Размер: 25,4 МБ Язык: Английский
Barbarian was a derogatory name. An insult. The Greeks used the word for all those people living beyond their frontiers. It was in imitation of the foreigners' incomprehensible, ba-ba-babbling way of talking. Later, the Romans and their heirs, applied the word to European and Asian races living outside their empires who did not inhabit sophisticated urban settlements. These Barbarians were viewed as wild, savage people. From their archetypal appearance, the Latins derived their word for a beard, barba.

 Название: A Story for All Americans: Vietnam, Victims, and Veterans Автор: Frank Grzyb Издательство: Purdue University Press Год: 2000 Формат: PDF Страниц: 330 Размер: 24,9 МБ Язык: Английский
The book details wartime accounts of average servicemen and women-some heroic, some frightening, some amusing, some nearly unbelievable. The work is a historical compendium of fascinating and compelling stories woven together in a theme format. What makes this book truly unique, however, is its absence of literary pretentiousness. Relating oral accounts, the veterans speak in a no-nonsense, matter-of-fact way.
