Han Material Culture
by Sophia-Karin PsarrasHan Material Culture is an analysis of Han dynasty (206 BC-AD 220) Chinese archaeology based on a comparison of the forms of vessels found in positively dated tombs. The resultant chronological framework allows for the cross dating of tombs across China, of which approximately one thousand are documented here. In the context of this body of data, the development of not only vessel types but also tomb structure and decor is reevaluated, together with the pervasive intercultural exchange visible in all areas of this material. The Han dynasty emerges as a creative, surprisingly open society, heir to the Bronze Age and herald of what might be called the Age of Ceramics.

Hand of Fire: The Comics Art of Jack Kirby (Great Comics Artists Series)
by Charles HatfieldJack Kirby (1917–1994) is one of the most influential and popular artists in comics history. With Stan Lee, he created the Fantastic Four and defined the drawing and narrative style of Marvel Comics from the 1960s to the present day. Kirby is credited with creating or cocreating a number of Marvel's mainstay properties, among them the X-Men, the Hulk, Thor, and the Silver Surfer. His earlier work with Joe Simon led to the creation of Captain America, the popular kid gang and romance comic genres, and one of the most successful comics studios of the 1940s and 1950s. Kirby's distinctive narrative drawing, use of bold abstraction, and creation of angst-ridden and morally flawed heroes mark him as one of the most influential mainstream creators in comics. In this book, Charles Hatfield examines the artistic legacy of one of America's true comic book giants. He analyzes the development of Kirby's cartooning technique, his use of dynamic composition, the recurring themes and moral ambiguities in his work, his eventual split from Lee, and his later work as a solo artist. Against the backdrop of Kirby's earlier work in various genres, Hand of Fire examines the peak of Kirby's career, when he introduced a new sense of scope and sublimity to comic book fantasy.

Hand to Mouth
by Linda Tirado"I've been waiting for this book for a long time. Well, not this book, because I never imagined that the book I was waiting for would be so devastatingly smart and funny, so consistently entertaining and unflinchingly on target. In fact, I would like to have written it myself - if, that is, I had lived Linda Tirado's life and extracted all the hard lessons she has learned. I am the author of Nickel and Dimed, which tells the story of my own brief attempt, as a semi-undercover journalist, to survive on low-wage retail and service jobs. Tirado is the real thing." --from the foreword by Barbara Ehrenreich, New York Times bestselling author of Nickel and Dimed We in America have certain ideas of what it means to be poor. Linda Tirado, in her signature brutally honest yet personable voice, takes all of these preconceived notions and smashes them to bits. She articulates not only what it is to be working poor in America (yes, you can be poor and live in a house and have a job, even two), but what poverty is truly like--on all levels. In her thought-provoking voice, Tirado discusses how she went from lower-middle class, to sometimes middle class, to poor and everything in between, and in doing so reveals why "poor people don't always behave the way middle-class America thinks they should."
Handarbeit und Kopfarbeit: Humanistenwissen für Berufe im Siglo de Oro (Prolegomena Romanica. Beiträge zu den romanischen Kulturen und Literaturen)
by Christoph StrosetzkiIn der frühen Neuzeit beschäftigen sich zahlreiche Texte mit Berufen, indem sie das jeweils erforderliche Wissen, einzelne Aufgabenfelder, Zweck, Ursprung und Prestige darstellen. Humanistisch ist der Argumentationsgang, insofern er meist vom Menschen ausgeht. Prägend ist dabei die antike Vorstellung vom Vorrang der Kopfarbeit vor der Handarbeit. Die Bedeutung Spaniens ergibt sich daraus, dass der spanische König Karl V. zugleich Kaiser und Herrscher über die Kolonien in Amerika war, also nach damaligen Verhältnissen ein Weltreich regierte. Nach der Erörterung einiger zentraler Kategorien werden Gesamtdarstellungen des Wissens, der Berufe und der herausragenden Berufsvertreter vorgestellt. Dabei ist die Hierarchisierung und deren Relativierung durch die Satire aufschlussreich. Anhand einzelner als charakteristische Beispiele ausgewählter Berufe mit jeweiligem spezifischen Wissen werden dann die mechanischen Künste und die artes liberales vorgeführt. Den Abschluss bilden die höheren Fakultäten Medizin, Theologie und Jurisprudenz mit ihren Vertretern.

Handbook for the Analysis of Micro-Particles in Archaeological Samples (Interdisciplinary Contributions to Archaeology)
by Amanda G. HenryThis handbook provides a resource for those already familiar with some kinds of micro-particles who wish to learn more about others, or for those just starting out in the study of microremains who wish to have a broad understanding about microscopic archaeology. Topics covered in this handbook include diatom microfossils, starch granules, pollen grains, phytoliths, natural fibers, volcanic glass, minerals, insect remains, and feathers.Archaeological investigations increasingly rely on specialist identification of microscopic remnants found in sites. These micro-particles can provide information about the site environment and human activities that may not be apparent from artifacts and materials preserved on the macro-scale, and have given us new, and often high-profile, information about our past. The investigation of this "invisible archaeology" - that is, invisible to the naked eye - is still somewhat new, and generally each kind of micro-particle is studied individually. Researchers become experts in a narrow range of micro-particle types, but may be less familiar with, or even completely unaware of, the multitude of other forms that are frequently encountered in archaeological samples. This handbook’s accessible approach is suitable for those at the beginner level.
