The Hare and the Tortoise: A Fable from Aesop Retold & Illustrated by Helen Ward
No full textThis is a sideways (landscape) book of considerable artistic appeal. The color work is excellent. A new emphasis in this work lies on all the other animals involved. The inciting incident happens when the careless hare trips over the tortoise and tumbles into a thorny bush. The noise attracts a crowd. The hare insults the tortoise, who says nothing in return except to challenge him to a race. It is when the hare is leaping from stone to stone across the river that he finds the tortoise rowing across more easily. Next the hare finds himself moving through a forest (of larger animals' legs) that leaves him scratched and tired when he reaches its other side. So he decides to take a nap. The hare awakens, checks for the tortoise (who is not in sight), and takes time for a long lunch. The hare crosses the finish line too late but is running too fast to stop and falls into an even thornier bush than before. But this time he said nothing. The last few pages are a key to the various animals pictured along the way. Well done!This is a hardbound book (hard cover)This book has a dust jacket (book cover)First editionApparent first printingRetold by Helen War

Rapa Nui (Easter Island)’s Stone Worlds
No full textThis article explores the spatial, architectural and conceptual relationships between landscape places, stone quarrying, and stone moving and building during Rapa Nui’s statue-building period. These are central themes of the ‘Rapa Nui Landscapes of Construction Project’ and are discussed using aspects of the findings of our recent fieldwork. The different scales of expression, from the detail of the domestic sphere to the monumental working of quarries, are considered. It is suggested that the impressiveness of Rapa Nui’s stone architecture is its conceptual coherence at the small scale as much as at the large scale. </div
