Download or read book Plato’s >Statesman written by Beatriz Bossi and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-11-19 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume tackles both the apparent lack of unity and the perplexing philosophical content of the Statesman as it explores, in what is now Plato's second account, subsequent to that of the Republic, of what would constitute the best society, the role and nature of the statesman in it; the art of governance of it; the role and nature of its laws; the role and status of its female citizens; and how the virtues are interwoven within it, along with many other topics, including (in a major Myth) that of the origins of the universe and of humankind. Coming as they do from often widely differing hermeneutical traditions, the authors in the volume offer responses to substantive and intriguing questions that the dialogue raises which are frequently divergent, but by that very token of much value in any attempt to interpret a complex and multifaceted work.

Download or read book The Nuclear Sphinx of Tehran written by Yossi Melman and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2008-08-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by hate and surrounded by fundamentalist leaders in a country that may soon possess nuclear weapons, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad poses the most serious threat to world peace, even while he shrewdly manipulates public opinion at home. Until now, Americans have known little about him. Since his election in June 2005, Ahmadinejad has accelerated his country's nuclear research; called for the elimination of Israel; and failed the Iranian people, who elected him on a since-neglected domestic platform. In this first book about him, we see the forces that are bringing the world to the brink of another war in the Middle East. Written by an Iranian-born insider and a world-renowned intelligence expert, it offers the first full portrait of this former mayor of Tehran whose rural roots and vituperative populism catapulted him from obscurity to national leadership.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is comprised of 14 contributions, which are revised and expanded versions of lectures held at an international conference on Stefan Zweig that took place in Israel in 2004. The essays focus on Zweig's biographical writings (for example Erasmus and Fouché), as well as on several aspects of his literary works that have been neglected since the revival of academic studies of his writings and career commenced some 25 years ago. These include: Zweig's conception of the daemonic, Zweig and Christianity, the discourse of love in his writings, Zweig as an Austrian eulogist, his understanding of theater, etc. Contributors from Austria, Germany, France, Belgium, Slovenia, and Israel bring refreshingly diverse perspectives and new concerns to this scholarly project. With contributions from Vera Apfelthaler, Matjaz Birk, Denis Charbit, Sarah Fraiman-Morris, Mark H. Gelber, Jacob Golomb, Bernhard Greiner, Gert Kerschbaumer, Hanni Mittelmann, Klaus Mueller, Michel Reffet, Ingrid Spoerk, Robert Wistrich.

Book excerpt: A scientist and a soldier must join forces when combat drones zero in on targets on American soil in this gripping technological thriller from New York Times bestselling author Daniel Suarez. Linda McKinney studies the social behavior of insects—which leaves her entirely unprepared for the day her research is conscripted to help run an unmanned and automated drone army. Odin is the secretive Special Ops soldier with a unique insight into a faceless enemy who has begun to attack the American homeland with drones programmed to seek, identify, and execute targets without human intervention. Together, McKinney and Odin must slow this advance long enough for the world to recognize its destructive power. But as enigmatic forces press the advantage, and death rains down from above, it may already be too late to save mankind from destruction.

Download or read book Daemons and Spirits in Ancient Egypt written by Carolyn Graves-Brown and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2018-09-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the weird and wonderful lesser-known ‘spirit’ entities of ancient Egypt –daemons, the mysterious and often fantastical creatures of the Egyptian ‘Otherworld’ – and the closely related spirits of the dead, which together conjure the excitement of all things otherworldly. Daemons and spirits are generally defined in Egyptology as creatures not of this world, which do not have their own cult centre, and both groups are frequently listed together in protective spells. This volume explores the general nature of daemons and spirits in ancient Egypt and discusses a selection in more detail: it uses artefacts from Wales’s important collection of Egyptian objects at the Egypt Centre at Swansea University, in which are to be found a dwarf daemon with sticking out tongue; several guardian daemons of the Otherworld; creatures who are part snake and part feline; spirits of deceased humans; and a Greek satyr Silenus, companion to the wine god Dionysus.

Download or read book Romantic Daemons in the Poetry of Blake, Shelley and Keats written by Nicholas Meihuizen and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers detailed readings of relevant works by Blake, Shelley and Keats, to bring together what is loosely termed as Hermetic tradition, British Romantic poetry and responses to the present crises regarding our life on the planet, including those linked to the notion of posthumanism. This conjunction of forces, so to speak, points beyond the boundaries erected by general sociological complacency and the acceptance of humankind as the centre of existence on Earth, to affirm the value of the non-human world and the possibilities inherent in an awareness of its subtler manifestations. Although the idea of spiritual agency might stretch the bounds of credulity, for centuries the inspired imagination has been considered daemonic; that is, it brings to artists and poets (and certain scientists, indeed) a sense of heightened consciousness, seemingly from beyond the self. Whatever causality may be at play here, it is clear that instances of an exalted outlook on life exist in abundance in the poetry of Blake, Shelley and Keats. The present book explores them and their implications.

Download or read book Experiments on the Thermodynamics of Information Processing written by Momčilo Gavrilov and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis reveals how the feedback trap technique, developed to trap small objects for biophysical measurement, could be adapted for the quantitative study of the thermodynamic properties of small systems. The experiments in this thesis are related to Maxwell’s demon, a hypothetical intelligent, “neat fingered” being that uses information to extract work from heat, apparently creating a perpetual-motion machine. The second law of thermodynamics should make that impossible, but how? That question has stymied physicists and provoked debate for a century and a half. The experiments in this thesis confirm a hypothesis proposed by Rolf Landauer over fifty years ago: that Maxwell’s demon would need to erase information, and that erasing information—resetting the measuring device to a standard starting state—requires dissipating as much energy as is gained. For his thesis work, the author used a “feedback trap” to study the motion of colloidal particles in “v irtual potentials” that may be manipulated arbitrarily. The feedback trap confines a freely diffusing particle in liquid by periodically measuring its position and applying an electric field to move it back to the origin.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who then is THE BOY? He told me this.... There was a woman there at the edges of the Hockomock Swamp, her year feels like 1749...the woman who lived alongside - and stepped into the swamp many times, living nearby off the land. People came and went and took their way with her and she bore many children. THE BOY tells me that sixteen and one half (?) children were born to her... They were products of her anguish and she treated them poorly. Many died - others were put to death - and she eventually joined them. All of their bodies rotted into the swamp.... THE BOY is a Daemon...and he gave these sigils to me.... 29 deadly Sigils to Harm, Gain Control or Disarm 1. To allow yourself to do damaging works 2. Go ahead....Jump 3. To cause someone to lie all the time against their will 4. To stop another from feeling joy 5. To cause someone to forever desire what they cannot have 6. To take away someone's ability to orgasm 7. To cause one to confess to a crime they did not commit 8. To keep one stuck in sorrow 9. To inject oneself into sexual dreams 10. To steal away the love of an "Infant" 11. To shut someone's mouth completely 12. To cause destruction through suggestion of Possession 13. To force distance between two humans 14. To cause someone to forget their identity 15. To cause one to self-destruct through guilt 16. To encourage Self-loathing 17. To cause someone to think they are someone else of your choice 18. To make someone pay, with their wellness or longevity, for wasting your time or trust (the brother sigil to the Poisoner's Sigil) 19. To have your words heard as deadly 20. To increase un-wellness in increments 21. To allow for profound and obvious humiliating declining of another 22. To cause one to be trapped in a loop 23. To force someone to live in the past 24.

To Invite the Action of Death into Someone's Home CLOSING COMMENTS This book is brutal, these sigils are brutal, THE BOY is brutal and I am brutal when intentionally crossed. Let this be a clear warning to those who mistake kindness for weakness. THE BOY is a Daemon, and a Daemon without a conscience. He doesn't care if you destroy your stalker, cause eternal pain for someone who stole from you, put someone into an unforgiving loop of sorrow when they posed as a friend and became a poacher of ideas and favors....and neither do I. This is not a PC tome. I have a list of individuals, just as you do, who have crossed the line of trust with intent and malice - go ahead - admit it to yourself. You may have better access to that list after you use the first Sigil, 29DS - I. I don't care if your world is polluted with fools who use you like a paper towel and toss you away - however YOU SHOULD CONSIDER CARING about that. This book will assist you in these considerations.... SORCERESS CAGLIASTRO, Blood Sorceress, Necromancer in the hands of 9

Download or read book The God who Comes written by Rosemarie Taylor-Perry and published by Algora Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most widely acclaimed and influential religious cult in the ancient Greek world, for almost 2000 years, was the Eleusinian Mysteries, the Mystery Rites of Dionysos and associated Hellenic deities. Drawing participants from Rome, Egypt and all around the Mediterranean, the Mysteries influenced and inspired many of the greatest minds including Aristotle, Homer and Plutarch. But initiates were sworn to secrecy; and with the advent of Christianity, the Roman Empire stamped out this "cult." How did adherents of Hellene Mystery Deities performed their worship? What was the symbolism of the sacred objects and the actions performed? The God Who Comes is a meticulously researched exploration of how and why these rites were performed, based upon archaeological, scholarly and iconographic evidence -- a refutation of facile New Age inventions. Cicero said, "Athens never created anything nobler than those sublime Mysteries through which we became gentler and have advanced from a barbarous and rustic life to a more civilized one, so that we not only live more joyfully but also die with a better hope." The author traces how the rituals were related chronologically; why it seems that many aspects of ritual action are unclear or appear transposed; and why no scholar intent upon probing the hows and wherefores of ancient Mystery rites had ever presented them in any sort of chronological, easily-understood manner. She examines parallels in diverse civilizations including the use of hallucinogens in religious rites, and archetypal deities such as shape-changers (like the Navajo Coyote). The book includes an index, Greek-to-English glossary, extensive footnotes and bibliography
