Book Synopsis Mountains Figured and Disfigured in the English-Speaking World by : Françoise Besson
Download or read book Mountains Figured and Disfigured in the English-Speaking World written by Françoise Besson and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-06-01 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this book, written by poets, novelists, mountain-climbers and academics from all over the world, evoke the representation of mountains in the English-speaking world as artists, writers, philosophers or mountain-climbers have represented them from the sixteenth to the twenty-first centuries. From the Alps to the Pyrenees, from Mount Fuji to Mount Shasta, from the Himalayas to the Scottish Highlands, from Ikere in Nigeria to Devil's Tower in the United States, from Uluru in Australia to the most northern mountain of the Arctic, the shapes of the world speak the same language and tell the world its own story. This interdisciplinary book, weaving together mountaineering, literature, philosophy, painting, cinema, ecology, history, palaeontology, geography, geopolitics, toponymy, law, religion and myth, invites people to an innovative reading of mountains: it reveals the close relationship existing between the shapes of the world and all forms of writing and, at the same time, it shows how the representations of the imagination may be instrumental in protecting the natural world. The story told by the landscape inscribes a broken line in the shapes of the world, tearing the landscape like a fragile page whenever historical and political events (wars, mining or deforestation) leave scars in the landscape; but writers' and artists' representations of mountains constitute a path to awareness as they are not only a painting of beauty, but an image of our link to nature and a warning as well. For centuries the image of the mountain has conveyed a symbolism telling the story of human thought, and this book shows to what extent literature and art play an essential part in our awareness of nature.

Book Synopsis The Past and Future King by : Warren M. Mueller
Download or read book The Past and Future King written by Warren M. Mueller and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2017-02-13 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Past and Future King transports the reader to another world filled with compelling characters that move the imagination. More than a fantasy book, it is a story with ageless relevance to the great themes of life such as adventure, love, redemption, and fulfillment. Warren M. Mueller has written a great fantasy in The Past and Future King that takes readers on an adventure of good versus evil, where mythical characters (of the sort readers have found in the worlds of Tolkien and Lewis) struggle for world domination. Readers will follow the adventures of Tom, the main character, as he journeys to discover his identity and purpose. He loves to read and becomes a friend of Willet the Scribe, who shares his trunk full of books of history and legends and warns Tom that reading them will expand and transform his mind because the words within them will come alive. Tom shares with Willet about a recurring dream, and Willet tells him that the dream should not be ignored. Through this adventure, readers see how dreams bridge the worlds of fantasy and reality. Author Warren Mueller takes us into these unknown realms, and readers are able to vividly see all that is happening. I believe the strength of this book is the wonderfully written descriptions, which allow the reader to experience the adventures and the tension that the story brings with it (Joyce M. Gilmour).
