Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1952 book is an inquiry into the relations in origin between literature and inspiration, based on a study of the practices of seers in modern communities where oral literature sill survives, and of the records of primitive poetry in the West and North. Mrs Chadwick discusses the universal reverence accorded to poets, musicians, seers, or prophets, the training they underwent, the methods of ecstasy, and the remarkable similarities of their messages in remote and different parts of the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gathered from scrapbooks, diaries, book margins and disk drives, this collection charts the author's life from boy to man, from travels to Africa, from young family to middle age. The predominant themes of spiritual path and scientific rationale are set in emphatic rhythms and rhymes. The tone is sometimes sombre - prophecy does tend to be gloomy- but patches of bright sun shine in the poems Sparrows Chirping and From the Farm, which delight in the appreciation of Nature. Many of the poems employ dream images and words. In the humorous On Our Way to Mali, and in the challenging Quantitative Analysis, the colour, light, situation and sound of the dream world creates the poem. Poems, Equations and Prophecies has only a few poems with equations embedded in the verses. These should not distract the student of literature any more than the student of mathematics should be distracted by religious symbols. They stimulate the other senses as much as imagery and alliteration, but may require some background reading to fully appreciate. Poems, Equations and Prophecies describes visions interpreted using contemporary ideas and techniques. The poem I saw you twice relies on the teachings of Carlos Castaneda to lend meaning to bizarre, real-life events. One Foundation Trilogy questions the value of prophecy in modern society. More rational means are available to help humanity choose its way through crisis, as in Isaac Asimov's classic novels. The Besht comes to help uses the analytical method of Carl Jung to interpret a kabbalistic vision of the Heavenly Chariot. Seeds of this discovery are apparent throughout the earlier poems, particularly in RESUME. Lastly, what collection would be complete without an enduring love song? Two Worlds is at heart a love poem written to the author's wife. With inconsistent equations inspired by Gödel's Theorem and a prophetic connection with September 11th, this poem will intrigue the poet reader and test the mathematician for time to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that the most profound and far-reaching effects of Buddhism on Chinese culture occurred at the level of practice, specifically in religious rituals designed to cure people of disease, demonic possession, and bad luck. This practice would leave its most lasting imprint on the liturgical tradition of Taoism. In focusing on religious practice, the book provides a corrective to traditional studies of Chinese religion, which overemphasize metaphysics and spirituality.

Book excerpt: The book discusses the image of the prophet and the role of prophecy in Modern Hebrew Poetry. The first part of the book presents the prophetic archetypal biographies of prophets, heroes and artists in Hebrew and European mythologies. It also examines the historical facts which lead to the departure of the prophet from Hebrew literature following the destruction of the second temple. Finally, it addresses the necessity of reappearance of the prophet in the 18th and 19th centuries in Hebrew thought and literature and provides a short history of that reappearance in Haskala literature. The second part focuses upon three major “prophets poets”: Haim N. Bialik, Avraham Shlonski and Uri Z. Greenberg. The book may be of interest to scholars of Literature, Judaism, Philosophy, Science of Religion, Anthropology, Folklore and Rhetoric.

Download or read book EUROPE A PROPHECY written by William Blake and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-11-29 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blake's illuminated books, produced from 1783-1795, are remarkable examples of complex syntheses: of form - poetry and painting; and of subject - the real with the mythical. Blake created his own mythological creations to populate his poems and paintings: concepts and ideas became personified into universal representations. He used these mythological characters to explain and act out his singular view of history. Blake divided the nature of man into four personified elements: "Los, the imagination and eventual source of redemption; Urizen, the reason and vengeful Jehovah of the Old Testament as opposed to the merciful Christ of the New; Luvah, the senses; and Tharmas, the emotions". Each of these characters has an emanation, or female "offshoot", who is commonly a negative character attempting to dominate her male counterpart. "William Blake (1757 – 1827) was an English poet, painter, and printmaker. Largely unrecognised during his lifetime, Blake is now considered a seminal figure in the history of both the poetry and visual arts of the Romantic Age.

Download or read book America a Prophecy written by George Quasha and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. African American Studies. Native American Studies. When Thoreau wrote in his Journal in 1841, "Good poetry seems so simple and natural a thing that when we meet it we wonder that all men are not always poets," and when Whitman describes Leaves of Grass as a "language experiment," they are expressing an approach to poetry that never ceased and has grown continuously during recent decades. This groundbreaking anthology from the early 1970s takes such an approach in presenting the poetry of the North American continent, from pre-Columbian times to the present. It includes many recognized poets of the period, though appearing here in often unexpected contexts, and others who have been overlooked but whose contributions to the development of poetry are revolutionary. Starting from their own moment, the editors have read back into the more distant past and selected from broad American traditions works that had thitherto been considered outside the realm of poetry proper: the native poetry of the American continent, African-American sermons, blues and gospels, and the sacred, often innovative poetry of such radical religious groups as the Shakers. The book takes its title from William Blake's poem presenting the American Revolution as not only a powerful, promising and problematic historical event but the birth of a new development in man's consciousness--one that finds complex expression in the poetry of a continent. Selections mostly appear non-chronologically in juxtapositions suggesting what T. S. Eliot called the "simultaneous order" of all poetries of all times.

Download or read book The Epic Poem Prophesied by Nostradamus written by Robert Tippett and published by . This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1555, Michel de Nostredame published the first installment of his most famous literary work, The Prophecies. Those installments were finalized after Nostradamus' death (1566), with the publication of the 1568 Lyon edition. For the past 443 years, no one has ever attempted to present all 947 poems in an order other than that originally published. However, those individual verses, called quatrains (4-lines, ABAB rhyme scheme), were originally presented in an out of order manner. Robert Tippett has worked for a decade to produce a revised order of the poems of Nostradamus, in an order of story that yields an epic poem of prophetic magnitude. This book is produced to go along with the other books written by Tippett, The Systems of Nostradamus and The Centuries of Nostradamus (a multi-volume set), to help student of prophecy understand the true message Nostradamus prophesied for the world to know, as a vehicle of God and Jesus Christ. Still, as a literary masterpiece comparable to all works produced by past great writers of epic poems, The Epic Poem Prophesied by Nostradamus needs to draw close inspection by all who value the written word.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The books of the Latter Prophets have traditionally been treated as persuasive speeches, and interpreted according to their rhetoric. At the same time, interpreters recognize the poetic form of much prophecy. This study takes up the notion of the 'prophet' as 'poet', focusing on word-play in Hosea and on the lyrical plot of that book; the case is made for treating Hosea as a stark, full-length poem of inexhaustible power.
