Book excerpt: (PAPERBACK EDITION) "Ekleipsis" (Greek, "eclipse"): Judarius claimed that darkness would one day overcome and destroy all light. The name of that day, he called thus. The book opens with the birth of one named Vandor, of whom the story mainly centers around. We meet his friends as he matures, as things once again begin to turn toward the "Darkness." As the land of Erde starts to spiral toward the foretold "Ekleipsis," the dragon appears, the heir of Judarius comes forth, and the "Darkness" once again presses against all that is good. Fighting the supposed loss of loved ones, his friend's use of dark magic, the meeting of dwarfs, and beholding things which he has never seen, Vandor carries us from his birth until the beginning of the "Ekleipsis"; whereby, all that oppose the "Darkness" must flee for their lives. www.landoferde.com

Book excerpt: Within the Land of Erde, a child is born. His name is Vandor Leshing. Weary of the wickedness, his grandfather (aforetime known as the Bladesman, former Auctoritas of the Sealed in Kirche of Signum) moved his family to Nesal long before the days of his grandson, having faced the servants of Darkness many times as one who served King Salvare. Will Vandor face the loss of his love, while his friend embraces the dark sorcery, as turmoil within the city and signs throughout Erde seem to point toward the prophecies of the coming Ekleipsis? Rubicund, the Dragon, has surfaced with the pale Piradad, and has come to give life unto the fallen wicked one. Jagare, son of the late Galtare, grandson of the betrayer Judarius, has recovered from his deadly wound and prepares his army of Gottlos and Ubils to contend against all of Erde. All must take the mark and bow in allegiance or face death. No soul is safe from the arm of Darkness as it stretches forth even unto the secret city of the dwarfs. Their only hope is to endure until the Daegsteorra. Witnesses have declared the imminent return of King Salvare, lending encouragement to many of the souls in hiding. Groups disperse in search and rescue of those who were left behind, pleading to all who will come, as the battle rages on against the forces of Darkness. The army of Rubicund surfaces to destroy the inhabitants of Erde. If Jagare rises to power in Signum, while his army secures a perimeter of evil, is there any hope for King Salvare and his people at the time of the Andeis? What shall be the fate of the souls of the Land of Erde?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Memories that evoke the physical awareness of touch, smell, and bodily presence can be vital links to home for people living in diaspora from their culture of origin. How can filmmakers working between cultures use cinema, a visual medium, to transmit that physical sense of place and culture? In The Skin of the Film Laura U. Marks offers an answer, building on the theories of Gilles Deleuze and others to explain how and why intercultural cinema represents embodied experience in a postcolonial, transnational world. Much of intercultural cinema, Marks argues, has its origin in silence, in the gaps left by recorded history. Filmmakers seeking to represent their native cultures have had to develop new forms of cinematic expression. Marks offers a theory of “haptic visuality”—a visuality that functions like the sense of touch by triggering physical memories of smell, touch, and taste—to explain the newfound ways in which intercultural cinema engages the viewer bodily to convey cultural experience and memory. Using close to two hundred examples of intercultural film and video, she shows how the image allows viewers to experience cinema as a physical and multisensory embodiment of culture, not just as a visual representation of experience. Finally, this book offers a guide to many hard-to-find works of independent film and video made by Third World diasporic filmmakers now living in the United States, Great Britain, and Canada. The Skin of the Film draws on phenomenology, postcolonial and feminist theory, anthropology, and cognitive science. It will be essential reading for those interested in film theory, experimental cinema, the experience of diaspora, and the role of the sensuous in culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Posterior Analytics contains Aristotle's philosophy of science. In Book 2, Aristotle asks how the scientist discovers what sort of loss of light constitutes lunar eclipse. The scientist has to discover that the moon's darkening is due to the earth's shadow. Once that defining explanation is known the scientist possesses the full scientific concept of lunar eclipse and can use it to explain other necessary features of the phenomenon. The present commentary, arguably ascribed to Philoponus incorrectly, offers some interpretations of Aristotle that are unfamiliar nowadays. For example, the scientific concept of a human is acquired from observing particular humans and repeatedly receiving impressions in the sense image or percept and later in the imagination. The impressions received are not only of particular distinctive characteristics, like paleness, but also of universal human characteristics, like rationality. Perception can thus in a sense apprehend universal qualities in the individual as well as particular ones. This volume contains an English translation of the commentary, accompanied by extensive commentary notes, an introduction and a bibliography.

Book excerpt: In Aristotle's teleological view of the world, natural things come to be and are present for the sake of some function or end (for example, wings are present in birds for the sake of flying). Whereas much of recent scholarship has focused on uncovering the (meta-)physical underpinnings of Aristotle's teleology and its contrasts with his notions of chance and necessity, this book examines Aristotle's use of the theory of natural teleology in producing explanations of natural phenomena. Close analyses of Aristotle's natural treatises and his Posterior Analytics show what methods are used for the discovery of functions or ends that figure in teleological explanations, how these explanations are structured, and how well they work in making sense of phenomena. The book will be valuable for all who are interested in Aristotle's natural science, his philosophy of science, and his biology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Alex, his enigmatic dog Boris and his best mate Conna meet up with the new girls in school, Maddie and Bex, they witness a bizarre explosion at his reclusive neighbour Tom’s house. They are first on the scene and discover him lying hurt beside a strange mechanical sculpture, The Hippo-Chronos. Urgently, the dazed old Greek confronts Alex with a fantastic story which shocks the normally level-headed boy to the core: his father is not only alive and well, but trapped in Alexandria – in 48 BC!Over a period of days, the four listen while Tom tries to convince them of how the design and development of an ancient time-machine was entirely possible in the Great Library of Alexandria, just before it mysteriously burned to the ground. Is Tom going senile? Is there another more logical explanation to Alex’s dad’s disappearance? Or, could the whole intriguing tale somehow, just possibly be true after all? The Hippo-Chronos is a 2,000 year old mystery adventure which opens up a whole ancient, yet rational world for readers aged 14 and over. It is not a stuffy history lecture, but a bittersweet tale and very human adventure story of both modern and ancient youth. The story will be concluded in The Hippo-Tempus AKA The Alexandria Key.

Book excerpt: The seed of evil has been planted ... What will happen when its roots take hold? Ékleipsis: The Abyss is the second short story collection by the award-winning author. Tales of depravation and insanity are woven together with unrelenting style and depth, scrutinizing human nature's degeneration when compromised by tragic, vicious circumstances. These complex, wretched individuals and the irremediable conditions they are desperate to claw out of-or into-invoke the unfathomable question: What devastation are we truly capable of when left with no way out but down . . . into the obscurity of the abyss?
