Zenith Steam CD Key

Zenith Steam CD Key

Wizards and adventurers have one thing in common: they'll happily start messing with any sinister glowing artifact they find in a ruin if they think they can gain something for it, be it knowledge on the arcane powers that forged the world, some shiny new sword or, god forbid, the power of friendship. No matter how many skulls are engraved on the thing.  Sure, mages may be more prepared and do it for the right reasons... sometimes. But that doesn't change the fact that they're toying with dangerous powers, and when they fail, they fail big. And most times those failures reshape the world around them. Generaly in the form of a smoking crater. Or something with a lot of tentacles.  Well, Argus windell was a pretty good wizard, an Arcanologyst to be precise. He knows everything there is to know about ancient artifacts, but I guess an apocalypse unleashed in the middle of a war has a way to change your views on the whole “discovering the mysteries of the universe” thing. So he retired, looking for peace and quiet.  But that’s not easy to get in a world full of spike-haired buffoons who drag their giant swords around and mess things up with their chosen one complex. Specially when you’re trying to keep one of those dangerous devices out of the reach of their greasy heroic hands. Features: Explore a world of possibilities in a fully-realized fantasy realm. And one of those world map things we used to love.  Face enormous bosses, precarious foes, and angsty teenagers.  Find tons of parodies and pop culture references. Let's see if you can recognise them all.  Save the world. Sorta. Granted, it's a bit of a cliché. But hey, it works.  Unlock unique abilities and upgrade basic combo movements with an all-powerful “final blow”-type move.  Evade the cruel and overrated real world with a long single player campaign. Well, not as long as that one with the guy with the white hair, SURE, but we're an indie studio, dammit!

(En)gendering the Political Citizenship from marginal spaces

(En)gendering the Political Citizenship from marginal spaces

What is the relationship between being political and citizenship? What might it mean to be marginalised through both the practices and knowledge of citizenship? What might citizenship look like from a position of social political and cultural exclusion? This book responds to these questions by treating marginalisation as a political process and position. It explores how different lives experiences and forms of political action might be engendered when subjects are excluded made vulnerable and invisible from contemporary forms of citizenship. It aims to contribute to the growing body of literature on the politics of resistance by investigating how complex forms of marginality are not only produced by dominant forms of citizenship but also actively challenge them. Modernist approaches to politics tend to see the citizen as the ideal type of political agent and citizenship as the zenith of struggles over rights representation and belonging. This edited volume challenges this approach to political subjectivity by showing how political acts work for but also against/beyond citizenship claims towards different orientations and as ‘acts’ of (non)citizen. By bringing together diverse theoretical and empirical contributions and exploring the emergent politics of marginalised subjects this collection challenges how we think about citizenship and opens up space for alternative imaginaries of political action and belonging. This book was originally published as a special issue of Citizenship Studies. | (En)gendering the Political Citizenship from marginal spaces

Palmyra A History

Palmyra A History

Palmyra: A History examines Palmyra the city in the Syrian oasis of Tadmur from its beginnings in the Bronze Age through the classical period and its discovery and excavation to the present day. It aims at reconstructing Palmyra’s past from literary accounts – classical and post-classical – as well as material evidence of all kinds: inscriptions coins art and of course the remains of Palmyra’s monumental architecture. After exploring the earliest inhabitation of Tadmur the volume moves through the Persian and Hellenistic periods to the city’s zenith. Under the Romans Palmyra was unique among the cities of the empire because it became a political factor in its own right in the third century AD when the Roman military was overpowered by Sassanian invaders and Palmyrene troops stepped in. Sommer’s assessment of Palmyra under Rome therefore considers how Palmyra achieved such an exceptional role in the Roman Near East before its demise under the Umayyad Empire. The volume also examines the century-long history of archaeological and historical research at Palmyra from its beginnings under Ottoman rule and the French mandate in the 1920s to the recent satellite based prospection carried out by German archaeologists. A closing chapter examines the occupation of the site by ISIS during the Syrian conflict and the implications of the destruction there on the ruins the archaeological finds and future investigations and heritage in Syria more broadly. Palmyra offers academics students and the interested reader alike the first full treatment in English of this fascinating site providing a comprehensive account of the city’s origins rise and fall. | Palmyra A History
