First published in 1878, this collection of comic poems and traditional rhymes for very young children is outstanding for its delightful watercolor illustrations by the great children's book illustrator Randolph Caldecott.

Essential to life on earth since the beginning of time, trees hold a special place in our collective consciousness: rooted in the earth, reaching skyward, nourished by the elements, and enlivened by the sap running through their veins, they provide a metaphor for what it means to be human.

Moyra Caldecott has gathered here a collection of myths celebrating the rich symbolism of trees, all bringing to life a time when the natural world was deeply respected and trees and forests were thought to be inhabited by spirits and divine beings.

Bound by the organized structure of modern life, the human spirit yearns for the wildness and freedom of primal nature represented by forests in their natural state. Caldecott's book has captured and given voice to this spirit.

A collective work of art whose time has come. Of lasting value for all lovers of literature and the erotic, this is a glorious, groundbreaking celebration of black sensuality, including works by Alice Walker, Ntozake Shange, and many more.

In Celtic myth, the mixture of wise spiritual teaching and dramatic imagery creates new, potent, and disturbing visions. This selection of eleven storiessome more than 3,000 years old focuses on the women of ancient British mythology, from the formidable women warriors who trained heros to fight and kill to the beautiful companions who led them to higher realms of feminine intuition and spiritual wisdom. Caldecott goes beyond a mere recounting of female strength, providing lucid personal commentary that illuminates the complete myth and the culture from which it springs. These powerful stories transmit a recognition of the mystery of being and an understanding of the powerful magic of inner transformation.

L'anoressia mentale è una malattia scandalosa. Ci mette brutalmente in presenza di un'organizzazione psichica volta verso la morte, una morte che non è né desiderata né intravista. In questa patologia assistiamo alla distruzione dei pazienti da parte di se stessi, senza che se ne curino, senza che il singolare destino di un bisogno primario così vitale come la fame, volto verso la non soddisfazione, sia per loro fonte di interrogativi o di inquietudine. Gli autori sono stati indotti, partendo dalla loro esperienza clinica, a ricercare un chiarimento, solidamente fondato sulla teoria, del paradosso dell'anoressia mentale che colpisce tanto gravemente un grandissimo numero di adolescenti. Passando al vaglio della loro comprensione l'abbondante letteratura consacrata all'anoressia mentale, hanno puntato a stabilire una dottrina psicoanalitica coerente che renda conto delle particolarità di questa organizzazione psichica. Per far ciò partono dal trattamento, riferito in dettaglio, di tre adolescenti, accompagnato da altre otto osservazioni succinte, e si dedicano a una minuziosa elaborazione psicoanalitica dei meccanismi inconsci che organizzano una dualità sotterranea tra il corpo rigettato e la fame subdolamente ricercata.
