Book Description
Take another journey with me for another insight into in my opinion a unique people on a unique Island. Written once again very much 'tongue in cheek' but nonetheless true events, traditions and idiosyncrasies of the Cypriot people. It is not my intention to be derogatory or offensive to the Cypriot people as I AM one. The idea is to take actual facts and events and put a humorous twist to it all without detracting from the truth. Read about matters pertaining to subjects such as 'HUNTING' 'FOOD' 'GRANDMA' and much more. Let your laughter flow.

Book Description
Much like the previous two books in this series, 'Only in Cyprus' and 'Only in Cyprus the sequel', this one will also enlighten you on a unique people on a unique island. Although it is written in a humorous tongue in cheek way, it covers actual fact. I have included some personal experiences that I have used to convey some of the Cypriot traits and traditions.There are three parts to this book. The first covers some myths/sayings from my Yiayias', (grandmothers), generation and long before. The second part introduces you to a whole new language invented by us 'Charlies', (UK born Cypriots), and as well as this I include some 'Cypriot slang'. The third part is about personal experiences that explain various customs/traditions that we Cypriots have.So get comfortable, pour a nice big glass of wine and have a laugh.

Book Description
After eleven years of observing the Cypriot people, (of which I am one), I have written this book as a humorous, very much 'tongue in cheek' guide on Cyprus living. It is not meant to offend in any way, but what I have written is absolutely true. Once you learn to go with the flow Cyprus is a paradise. Please read with the humour it was intentionally written in.

The Southern Flank in Crisis, 1973-1976

Author: Keith Hamilton
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135776245
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 607

Book Description
A fascinating collection of British foreign policy documents covering reactions in Whitehall to political change and revolution in the Mediterranean basin from 1973 to 1976. This volume contains many previously unpublished documents, including Joint Intelligence Committee papers, which cast new light on key events, such as the international crisis triggered by the coup against Archbishop Makarios in Cyprus, Turkey’s military intervention in the island, the overthrow of the Caetano regime in Portugal, and the death of Franco in Spain. During 1973-76, years generally associated with East/West détente in Europe, NATO’s southern flank was plunged into crisis by a revolution in Portugal and a coup d’état in Cyprus. Political turmoil in Portugal, Turkey’s military intervention in Cyprus, the collapse of the military government in Greece, and the threat of a Greco-Turkish War, all emphasized the vulnerability of the alliance to regime change in the Mediterranean. The Western allies had also to prepare for the death of two ageing dictators in Spain and Yugoslavia, and the possible entry of Communists into government in France and Italy. This volume draws upon the records of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, the Cabinet Office and the Ministry of Defence, to document the reactions of Harold Wilson’s Labour government to these developments. This book will be of great interest to all students of contemporary British history, international history, European history, international relations, politics and diplomacy.

Examinations and Analysis of Sequels and Serials in the Film Industry

Pages : 412

Book Description
There are many elements in the concept of visual continuity, and they are all interrelated. In films or film series that are described as sequels, establishing a visual integrity relationship between films comes to the fore. The concept of the sequel appears in two ways. Sometimes, while the ideas are scripted, the story is divided into more than one part. Sometimes the story is planned as a single movie, and after a certain time, it can be realized as a follow-up movie/film for different reasons. In both systems of expression, it is necessary to seek harmony between all elements of visual design. Examinations and Analysis of Sequels and Serials in the Film Industry examines certain contents through the concepts of cinematography and narrative, focusing more on the practical side of cinema and partially on the theoretical side. It examines samples, sequels, serials, and trilogy universes on the axis of cinematography and narration. Covering topics such as film landscape, repeated narrative elements, and storytelling, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for film industry workers, film students and educators, sociologists, librarians, academicians, and researchers.

Two girls from two different worlds must unite to save each other in this sequel to the middle grade fantasy Sisters of Glass, which Kirkus declared “will inspire many to find the light within” in a starred review.

The Archbishops of Cyprus in the Modern Age

Pages : 365

Book Description
Cyprus Historical and Contemporary Studies Since the onset of Ottoman rule, but more especially from the mid-18th Century, the archbishops of the autocephalous Cypriot Orthodox Church have wielded a great deal of political power. Most people of a certain age will remember the bearded monk who became a Greek nationalist politician and the first President of the Republic of Cyprus in 1960, Archbishop Makarios III. Indeed his presence at Madame Tussaud’s is a reminder of his stature. But were all Cypriot archbishops such political and powerful Greek nationalists? This study is unique in its exploration of the peculiar role of the archbishop-ethnarch and, as such, offers valuable historical and political insights into the phenomenon. This book offers a political history of religious authorities in the pre-modern, modern, and post-modern eras. It examines how nationalist politics evolved and was co-opted by religious authorities in order to re-establish political hegemony from a secular European colonial power, and the consequences this entailed after the end of the British empire.
