Graven With Diamonds: The Many Lives Of Thomas Wyatt: Courtier, Poet, Assasin, Spy
Waterstones Product Information
You save: £4.90 This intriguing and amusing book tells the story of Henry VIII, - his court, his victims and his Queens - from the perspective of a powerful but little-discussed influence in the lives of those involved: poetry. Learned divines despised it, sober heads ignored it, but for Henry, the beau ideal of chivalry, poetry made things happen. It affected his wars, his diplomacy and his many marriages. It was at the root of his fatal attraction to Anne Boleyn, the source of her power and it was the means of her destruction. In this witty and accessible account, Nicola Shulman interweaves the bloody events of Henry's reign with the story of English love poetry and the life of its first master, Henry's most glamorous and enigmatic subject: Sir Thomas Wyatt. Courtier, spy, wit, diplomat, assassin, lover of Anne Boleyn, and favourite both of Henry and his sinister minister Thomas Cromwell, the brilliant Wyatt was admired and envied in equal measure. His love poetry began as an elite and risque entertainment for the group of ambitious men and women at the slippery top of the court.But when the axe began to fall among this group, and Henry's laws made his subjects fall silent in terror, Wyatt's poetic skills became a way to survive. He saw that a love poem was a place where secrets could hide.

Michelangelo's David and Edvard Munch's The Scream are examined.

The sculpture inspired by Dante's tale of Paolo and Francesca lovers forever intertwined in the Inferno communicates striking sensuality and emotion. These DVD’s also examine Rembrandt's The Nightwatch arguably his greatest work and Botticelli's Primavera the beautiful allegorical painting with some of the loveliest women ever created in art.Also three of the greatest religious artworks; Piero Della Francesca's Resurrection that Aldous Huxley called 'the greatest picture in the world'; Salvador Dali's The Crucifixion of St John of the Cross inspired by a 'cosmic dream'; and perhaps the most analysed and parodied of Christ-centred paintings Da Vinci's Last Supper.

Sea Monkey Aquarium
Stocking Fillers Product Information
'Cryptobiosis' means 'suspended animation', a phenomenon found in the Brine Shrimp, a species to which 'Sea Monkeys' are closely related. Their eggs, after being stored indefinitely will hatch and a full shrimp-life-cycle will begin again. Our kit consists of a 15cm plastic tank with built-in magnifying windows, and three envelopes: these contain water-purifier, eggs and a source of food. The eggs hatch almost immediately after being placed in the filled tank, and the subsequent rearing and caring is simple. The creatures, almost invisible when they hatch, can soon grow to 1-2cm long and have many intriguing features including being reactive to light. Owning them is an education which could lead anywhere. They come with an informative and entertaining booklet. Spare food, eggs etc. are available.

A Ghost In The Machine
Oxfam Online Shop Product Information
When Mallory Lawson's aunt dies and leaves him her beautiful house in the country, it couldn't have come at a better time. It allows him to take early retirement from his teaching job and for his wife Kate it brings the chance to start her own company. Life will be so much more straightforward in the country, won't it? All men should have a hobby: it keeps them out from under their wives' feet. Dennis Brinkley's hobby, though, was killing machines. No wonder the village was uneasy... Mallory Lawson believes that inheriting his aunt's beautiful house in Forbes Abbot may have saved his sanity. It enables him to take early retirement from his appalling teaching job in London, and his wife Kate to realise her dream of starting her own company. Life will be so much simpler in the country, won't it? But Forbes Abbot is not quite the close-knit community it seems, and little differences and squabbles can become violent - even murderous. Detective Chief Inspector Barnaby has encountered many intriguing cases, but the case of the ghost in the machine is one to test even the most experienced of detectives.

A Game For Hooligans: The History Of Rugby Union
Waterstones Product Information
You save: £2.20 Rugby union has undergone immense change in the past two decades - introducing a World Cup, accepting professionalism and creating a global market in players - yet no authoritative English-language general history of the game has been published in that time. Until now. "A Game for Hooligans" brings the game's colourful story up to date to include the 2007 World Cup. It covers all of the great matches, teams and players but also explores the social, political and economic changes that have affected the course of rugby's development. It is an international history, covering not only Britain and France but also the great rugby powers of the southern hemisphere and other successful rugby nations, including Argentina, Fiji and Japan.Contained within are the answers to many intriguing questions concerning the game, such as why 1895 is the most important date in both rugby-union and rugby-league history and how New Zealand became so good and have remained so good for so long. There is also a wealth of anecdotes, including allegations of devil-worship at a Welsh rugby club and an account of the game's contribution to the Cuban Revolution. This is a must-read for any fan of the oval ball.
