Описание: Andy and Margaret Becker are married baby boomers enjoying their retirement when Margaret discovers a book that refuels her longtime dream of traveling to Provence. Now all she has to do is convince a reluctant Andy to embark on a journey with her that will forever change their lives and their marriage.

Despite the fact that Andy has discussed traveling to Provence for decades, he soon finds himself trapped in Margaret's web of adventure. After he agrees to rent a house in Provence where he and Margaret can walk to the market, have lunch in a caf , and enjoy baguettes accompanied by unpasteurized cheese and lavender honey, Andy must adjust to sleeping in a tiny bed, changing lanes in traffic circles, and eating more bad carbohydrates than he ever has in his life. But Andy makes the best of his adventure, fully embedding himself in the French culture and even falling in love with the scraggly dog that lives on the property surrounding their wee house.

After a series of humorous events, Andy is unknowingly initiated into a freer way of life as he experiences the people, the unhurried atmosphere of French eating and drinking, and the fascinating history of Provence.

Описание: Chinese Buddhist wooden sculptures of Water-moon Guanyin, a Bodhisattva sitting in a leisurely reclining pose on a rocky throne, are housed in Western collections and are thus removed from their original context(s). Not only are most of them of unknown origin, but also lack a precise date. Tracing their sources is difficult because of the scant information provided by art dealers in previous periods. Thus, only preliminary investigations into their stylistic development and technical features have been made so far. Moreover, until recently none of the Chinese temples that provided their original context, i.e. their precise position within those temple compounds and their respective place in the Buddhist pantheon, have been examined at all.In her study, Petra H. Rsch investigates these very aspects, including questions about the religious position and function of the sculptures of this special Bodhisattva. She also looks at the technical construction, the collecting of Chinese Buddhist sculptures in general and those made of wood in particular.She uses a combination of stylistic, iconographical, buddhological, as well as technical methodologies in her investigation of the Water-moon Guanyin images and sheds light on the Buddhist temples in Shanxi Province, the works of art they once housed, and the religious practices of the eleventh to thirteenth centuries connected with them.
