Photographer Frederic Chaubin reveals 90 buildings sited in fourteen former Soviet Republics which express what could be considered as the fourth age of Soviet architecture. They reveal an unexpected rebirth of imagination an unknown burgeoning that took place from 1970 until 1990. Contrary to the twenties & thirties no school" or main trend emerges here. These buildings represent a chaotic impulse brought about by a decaying system. Their diversity announces the end of Soviet Union. Taking advantage of the collapsing monolithic structure the holes of the widening net architects revisited all the chronological periods & styles going back to the roots or freely innovating. Some of the daring ones completed projects that the Constructivists would have dreamt of (Druzhba sanatorium) others expressed their imagination in an expressionist way (Tbilisi wedding palace). A summer camp inspired by sketches of a prototype lunar base lays claim to its suprematist influence (Promethee). Then comes the speaking architecture widespread in the last years of the USSR: a crematorium adorned with concrete flames (Kiev crematorium) a technological institute with a flying saucer crashed on the roof (Kiev institute) a political center watching you like a Big Brother (Kaliningrad House of Soviet). This puzzle of styles testifies to all the ideological dreams of the period from the obsession with the cosmos to the rebirth of privacy & it also outlines the geography of the USSR showing how local influences made their exotic twists before bringing the country to its end." ...

In this book Rupert Matthews puts forward his ground breaking new theories on the collapse of the post-Roman order in Britain & the formation of Engl&. Drawing on newly analysed written sources & the growing mass of archaeological finds he presents a very different picture of post-Roman Britain than that usually put forward. In place of the anarchy & mayhem Rupert suggests that Romanised governmental structures managed to survive the economic collapse of the 5th century & the population collapse of the early sixth century to emerge in new & barbarianised form in the later sixth century. The key figure in this story was Ceawlin King of Wessex in the 570s. It was he who finally smashed the old order with his ambitious grab for power & who thus opened the way to the creation of the England that we know today with its English culture English language & English character. ...

At the beginning of the Second World War the Ministry of Information through the advice of Kenneth Clark commissioned Cecil Beaton to photograph the Home Front. Beaton set to work recording the destruction of the Wren churches in the City & the heroism of Londoners under attack. He conducted a survey of Bomber & Fighter Commands for the RAF which was published with Beatons own astute commentary. Beaton was an effective propagandist but his voice like his photographs was touchingly elegant. Whatever his subject Beaton was always a stylist. Beatons wartime work for the Ministry amounted to seven thousand photographs which are now housed with their negatives at the Imperial War Museums. They form a great document both of the landscape of war & of the passing of the Empire. He travelled through the Western Desert & on to Iraq Palestine Transjordan & Syria. In 1943 he left for India where he photographed the final days of the Raj in New Delhi & Calcutta before joining the Burma campaign. He ended the war deep in Chinese territory where he witnessed the Nationalist resistance to the Japanese. Beatons inherent sense of theatre extended from palatial drawing rooms to the jungle & the desert. Whatever the circumstances he never departed from his radical aesthetic. Theatre of War" is published in conjunction with the Imperial War Museums on the occasion of a major exhibition." ...
