The story of the Bamburgh Sword - one of the finest swords ever
forged. In 2000, archaeologist Paul Gething rediscovered a sword.
An unprepossessing length of rusty metal, it had been left in a
suitcase for thirty years. But Paul had a suspicion that the sword
had more to tell than appeared, so he sent it for specialist tests.
When the results came back, he realised that what he had in his
possession was possibly the finest, and certainly the most complex,
sword ever made, which had been forged in seventh-century
Northumberland by an anonymous swordsmith. This is the story of the
Bamburgh Sword - of how and why it was made, who made it and what
it meant to the warriors and kings who wielded it over three
centuries. It is also the remarkable story of the archaeologists
and swordsmiths who found, studied and attempted to recreate the
weapon using only the materials and technologies available to the
original smith.

As participation in game related activities increases around the
world and across a larger part of the population, it is obvious
that games are not just an entertainment medium for children or
young people. Games can be used to accomplish different purposes
for different groups of people in society. Developing a universal
designed game involves more than adding a cast of diverse
characters. Games with universal design, at their core, are
experiences that are designed from the ground up to be accessible
to everyone – through mechanics, options, and user experience.
This book explains the meaning and need for universal design in
video games and sheds light on important disciplines. Researchers
define a universal designed game as a video game that actively
welcomes all players. When players connect authentically with a
video game, they’re much more likely to engage with the content.
Conversely, when players can’t physically play a game, or don’t
see characters that look like them, they feel isolated and miss out
on beneficial opportunities to learn and collaborate. Universal
design maximizes the impact of playing games, for instance, by
ensuring that they’re accessible, empowering and representative
for every learner. Â
Translated, with an Introduction and Notes by John R. Williams.
Goethe's Faust is a classic of European literature. Based on the
fable of the man who traded his soul for superhuman powers and
knowledge, it became the life's work of Germany's greatest poet.
Beginning with an intriguing wager between God and Satan, it charts
the life of a deeply flawed individual and his struggle against the
nihilism of his diabolical companion Mephistopheles. Part One
presents Faust's pact with the Devil and the harrowing tragedy of
his love affair with the young Gretchen. Part Two shows Faust's
experience in the world of public affairs, including his encounter
with Helen of Troy, the emblem of classical beauty and culture. The
whole is a symbolic and panoramic commentary on the human condition
and on modern European history and civilisation. This new
translation of both parts of Faust preserves the poetic character
of the original, its tragic pathos and hilarious comedy. In
addition, John Williams has translated the Urfaust, a fascinating
glimpse into the young Goethe's imagination, and a selection from
the draft scenarios for the Walpurgis Night witches' sabbath -
material so ribald and blasphemous that Goethe did not dare publish
it.
In 1814, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe read the poems of the great
fourteenth-century Persian poet Hafiz in a newly published
translation by Joseph von Hammer-Purgstall. For Goethe, the book
was a revelation. He felt a deep connection with Hafiz and Persian
poetic traditions, and was immediately inspired to create his own
West-Eastern Divan as a lyrical conversation between the poetry and
history of his native Germany and that of Persia. The resulting
collection engages with the idea of the other and unearths lyrical
connections between cultures. The West-Eastern Divan is one of the
world's great works of literature, an inspired masterpiece, and a
poetic linking of European and Persian traditions. This new
bilingual edition expertly presents the wit, intelligence, humor,
and technical mastery of the poetry in Goethe's Divan. In order to
preserve the work's original power, Eric Ormsby has created this
translation in clear contemporary prose rather than in rhymed
verse, which tends to obscure the works sharpness. This edition is
also accompanied by explanatory notes of the verse in German and in
English and a translation of Goethe's own commentary, the "Notes
and Essays for a Better Understanding of the West-Eastern Divan."
This edition not only bring this classic collection to
English-language readers, but also, at a time of renewed Western
unease about the other, to open up the rich cultural world of
Islam.
