Book Synopsis ULYSSES (Modern Classics Series) by : James Joyce
Download or read book ULYSSES (Modern Classics Series) written by James Joyce and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2024-01-10 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This carefully crafted ebook: "ULYSSES (Modern Classics Series)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Ulysses is a modernist novel by Irish writer James Joyce. It is considered to be one of the most important works of modernist literature, and has been called "a demonstration and summation of the entire movement". Ulysses chronicles the peripatetic appointments and encounters of Leopold Bloom in Dublin in the course of an ordinary day, 16 June 1904. Ulysses is the Latinised name of Odysseus, the hero of Homer's epic poem Odyssey, and the novel establishes a series of parallels between its characters and events and those of the poem (the correspondence of Leopold Bloom to Odysseus, Molly Bloom to Penelope, and Stephen Dedalus to Telemachus). Joyce divided Ulysses into 18 chapters or "episodes". At first glance much of the book may appear unstructured and chaotic; Joyce once said that he had "put in so many enigmas and puzzles that it will keep the professors busy for centuries arguing over what I meant", which would earn the novel "immortality". James Joyce (1882-1941) was an Irish novelist and poet, considered to be one of the most influential writers in the modernist avant-garde of the early 20th century. Joyce is best known for Ulysses, the short-story collection Dubliners, and the novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Finnegans Wake.

Download or read book Qigong written by Michael Rinaldini and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-30 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As I was finishing my fourth book, back in late 2019, I decided to write a straightforward book on Qigong. I intended to start writing it during the 2020 summer. I had an idea of writing a book based on how I teach Qigong classes in Sebastopol, California.I would include Five Element considerations, and other relevant factors. And I would discuss the benefits for that specific exercise. That was my original intention, and I also intended to provide a concise introduction to Chinese Medicine.That was my plan, and still is but I decided to add a few other areas of concentration. The second area of concentration is a discussion of how to boost immunity.A weak immune system or what is referred to in Chinese medicine as the Wei Qi field is responsible for protecting the body from a host of illnesses. It is common in Chinese medicine to say that a strong Wei Qi field will protect you from the Rebellious Qi. Thus, I will include in this book a special section that deals with this subject.The third area of concentration is for students who are ready to go beyond the basics. They will find areas of study like the advanced Qigong State, and a specialized Qigong form called Chong Mai Qigong, and an advanced form of Daoist meditation called Zuowang.
