Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Introduction: This inquiry is concerned with the themes of praxis and action in four philosophic movements: Marxism, existentialism, pragmatism, and analytic philosophy. It is rare that these four movements are considered in a single inquiry, for there are profound differences of emphasis, focus, terminology, and approach represented by these styles of thought. Many philosophers believe that similarities among these movements are superficial and that a close examination of them will reveal only hopelessly unbridgeable cleavages. While respecting the genuine fundamental differences of these movements, this inquiry is undertaken in the spirit of showing that there are important common themes and motifs in what first appears to be a chaotic babble of voices. I intend to show that the concern with man as an agent has been a primary focal point of each of these movements and further that each contributes something permanent and important to our understanding of the nature and context of human activity.

Book excerpt: No country in the world is blessed with a greater variety of forms in music, dance and theatre than ours. One of the theatre forms generally described as folk but possessing a strong classical connection is the Yakshagana. Although the name signifies the music of celestial beings, Yakshagana is an amalgam of the sky with the earth. There is both mystery and robustness about this form in which singing and drumming merge with dancing, and words with gestural interpretation, and players clad m costumes of striking colour and contours. It is the cherished cultural possession of the coastal districts of Karnataka. Dr. K.S. Karanth is the foremost living authority on Yakshagana and has been working on all its aspects, namely—dance, music, and literature, since 1930. He has led the way to a deep and systematic study of this art form. He has spent decades travelling to remote villages within Karnataka to inspect and study every Yakshagana manuscript, the earliest going back to A.D. 1651. With his fine literary judgement and aesthetic sensibility, he has traced the changing trends in the performance of Yakshagana. He has interacted with hundreds of Yakshagana artistes to find out what customs in training and interpretation had prevailed earlier and had fallen into disuse and deserved to be resuscitated. He has put together his findings in the shape of two standard books YakshaganaBayalata (1958) in Kannada, and Yakshagana in Kannada and English (1975). The present volume is a revised edition of the earlier book, with additional material and illustrations. It is hoped that the book will provide valuable insights into one of the most attractive and dynamic art forms of our land, as well as into a penetrative mind.

In his view, the dominant literary historical role of the prose poem has been to test the limits of generic constraints. Monroe here undertakes a comparative and historical investigation of the problematic relationship between prose and poetry and of the development of the prose poem over the past two centuries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through This Book, The Ninth Volume Of Awaken, Children!, Mother’s Call To Her Children Continues. And It Will Continue Until We Respond From Deep Within. The Response Must Come Because Mother’s Words Are Not Mere Words, But The Expression Of Supreme Love, The Call Of The Absolute Truth. That Call Will Therefore Sooner Or Later Touch And Awaken The Innocent, Slumbering Child Within Us. Mother, The Supreme Master, Will Then Slowly Lead Us To Moksha, The Ultimate Goal Of Life, A State Of Liberation From All Bondage; From All Pain And Suffering, A State Of Infinite Joy, Bliss, And Fulfillment. The Year 1987 Marked A Turning Point In Mother’s Mission Of Spreading Her Message Of Love, Compassion, And Peace To Mankind. The Time Had Come For Mother To Go Out And Gather All Her Children, Who Were Waiting For Her All Over The World, Into Her Fold. Though Mother’s 1987 American And European World Tour Lasted For Three Months, I Have Omitted Mentioning Many Of The Details Of The Tour In This Book. I Have Instead Chosen To Focus Mainly On Mother’s Dialogues And A Few Events That I Thought Would Be Of Most Interest To The Reader. Translated By Swami Amritaswarupananda. Published By The Disciples Of Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, Affectionately Known As Mother, Or Amma The Hugging Saint.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short-fused Charlie Falcon, owner of the vast Cottonwood Ranch in 1880 Colorado, is at the end of his rope when it comes to his four bachelor sons. Worried that not one of them has shown an interest in marrying, and concerned about the future of his holdings without heirs, he convinces his wife, Miranda, to aid him in a plot used by every culture the world around: mail order brides. The first to arrive is Calla Mackenzie, being matched to attractive but taciturn eldest son, Cody. Calla is a lovely young woman, who has been on her own since the deaths of her parents. That much of her background is hard fact, which she can reveal to her prospective in-laws without a qualm. What she cannot reveal is how she has made her living for some ten years: that of “grifting” or “flimflamming” victims out of their currency via various slightly illegal schemes. While she is busy adjusting to the daily routine of life on a ranch, and to what she had never expected from marriage, Sheriff Nate Burns of Pasto Verde is also busy. Doing his job. Overseeing the townspeople. And collecting Wanted Posters. One of which is printed with a likeness remarkably like Calla’s. With monumental deception on both sides of the family, Calla and Cody are caught in the middle, both with their own set of secrets. Each had just barely begun to trust the other, after a hastily arranged marriage. But, with the bonds suddenly broken, can they ever learn to trust again?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time—and in the best translation ever—the complete Book of Disquiet, a masterpiece beyond comparison The Book of Disquiet is the Portuguese modernist master Fernando Pessoa’s greatest literary achievement. An “autobiography” or “diary” containing exquisite melancholy observations, aphorisms, and ruminations, this classic work grapples with all the eternal questions. Now, for the first time the texts are presented chronologically, in a complete English edition by master translator Margaret Jull Costa. Most of the texts in The Book of Disquiet are written under the semi-heteronym Bernardo Soares, an assistant bookkeeper. This existential masterpiece was first published in Portuguese in 1982, forty-seven years after Pessoa’s death. A monumental literary event, this exciting, new, complete edition spans Fernando Pessoa’s entire writing life.
