Book Synopsis Lovers' Legends Unbound by : Agnes Lev
Download or read book Lovers' Legends Unbound written by Agnes Lev and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the Greeks, their gods and heroes were the encounter with the divine as well as true history. By means of myths, the Greeks stamped with authenticity their names, their land, their customs, their very existence. Thus the myths remain an open window through which we can look upon our forefathers and the ways they imagined themselves. Their stories reflect a nuanced morality that integrated same-sex love with spiritual teachings. By turn heroic, cautionary or shamanic, they always maintain the dignified cadence of ancient epic. The myths proclaim that self-indulgence, betrayal and violence are to be despised, and that love is the highest good.

Book Synopsis THE LEGENDS OF TEXAS by : J. Frank Dobie
Download or read book THE LEGENDS OF TEXAS written by J. Frank Dobie and published by Pelican Publishing Company. This book was released on 1995-08-01 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's treasure buried beneath Texas soil or stowed in caves covered over by stones. It might be the mother lode that's waiting to be uncovered or some Spanish pirate's chest of jewels and doubloons. Nearby a ghostly figure walks the dunes, or is it just an illusion brought on by the approaching dust storm? In this new mass market edition, J. Frank Dobie has collected accounts of some of the best known tales of booty hidden in Texas hill and dale as well as some eerie stories and the origins of Texas flowers, names, and streams. You will learn about "The Enchanted Rock in Llano County," "Lafitte's Treasure Vault," and "The Holy Spring of Father Margil at Nacogdoches." These lively stories reveal the love for adventure, independence, and mystery that has made Texas the state it is. And just as Dobie hoped, with these tales readers from all over can see the "richness of their own traditions." Dobie believed that worthwhile literature about this region had to be derived from an understanding of its life, lore, and history. Legends of Texas indirectly led to the founding of the Texas Folklore Society, the nation's second oldest folklore organization.
