Download or read book Santa Clown written by AM Sardar and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-11-29 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tale of the forgotten Santa. Santa Clown delivered his gifts with a joke and a laugh until one Christmas Eve he disappeared into the night and was replaced by his brother Santa Claus. Santa Clown was forgotten, lost in the mists of old Christmas's. Now there is trouble in Santa's Workshop! Saboteurs are wrecking the production lines and demanding the return of the Forgotten One; "Shoot Santa Claus down, Bring back the Santa Clown". Mr Drole, the long suffering Head Troll, is trying desperately to meet the Christmas Eve deadline whilst hunting the trouble-makers and sorting out his messed up love life; can the gifts be delivered as usual or is this the Christmas when it all falls part? Whatever happens, Christmas will never be the same again. A searing Christian-Marxist fantasy analyzing rampant Christmas commercialism, a critique of unsustainable models of growth and delivery and a warning against intra-species relations or just a very silly story about Elves?
Book Synopsis Santa Claus, Last of the Wild Men by : Phyllis Siefker
Download or read book Santa Claus, Last of the Wild Men written by Phyllis Siefker and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2006-11-27 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of the modern-day vision of Santa Claus is owed to the Clement Moore poem "The Night Before Christmas." His description of Saint Nicholas personified the "jolly old elf" known to millions of children throughout the world. However, far from being the offshoot of Saint Nicholas of Turkey, Santa Claus is the last of a long line of what scholars call "Wild Men" who were worshipped in ancient European fertility rites and came to America through Pennsylvania's Germans. This pagan creature is described from prehistoric times through his various forms--Robin Hood, The Fool, Harlequin, Satan and Robin Goodfellow--into today's carnival and Christmas scenes. In this thoroughly researched work, the origins of Santa Claus are found to stretch back over 50,000 years, jolting the foundation of Christian myths about the jolly old elf.
Book Synopsis The True Story of Santa Claus by : Janet Giovanelli
Download or read book The True Story of Santa Claus written by Janet Giovanelli and published by Centennial Books. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He's a symbol of hope and hapiness, of generosity and benevolence. Santa Clause is simply one of the most beloved legends ever embraced. The Story of Santa explores the history of Father Christmas. Who is he, really? Where did he come from? (His origins may surprise you!) Why does he fulfill our wishes? And what can we learn from him? He's become a ubiquitous figure during the Christmas season with his white beard, red suit, and prominent belly, but just how much do those celebrating the happy holiday really know about Santa Claus? Here is the whole story from the beginning—including the pre-Santas like Sinterklaas, Father Christmas, and of course, St. Nicholas. This beautifully illustrated book celebrates all things Santa ranging from the much-loved poem "The Night Before Christmas" to the songs, movies, images, and stories that are loved by both young and old. Along the way, it explores the favorite stories that have sprung up around him, including Santa’s elves, his workshop, Santa’s beloved reindeer and the legend of Mrs. Claus and the North Pole abode where she and her husband make their home. You'll even learn the secret to how Santa has time to visit every house around the world in just one night (a mathematician explains how it’s physically possible).
Book Synopsis Santa Claus Worldwide by : Tom A. Jerman
Download or read book Santa Claus Worldwide written by Tom A. Jerman and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2020-05-25 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive history of the world's midwinter gift-givers, showcasing the extreme diversity in their depictions as well as the many traits and functions these characters share. It tracks the evolution of these figures from the tribal priests who presided over winter solstice celebrations thousands of years before the birth of Christ, to Christian notables like St. Martin and St. Nicholas, to a variety of secular figures who emerged throughout Europe following the Protestant Reformation. Finally, it explains how the popularity of a poem about a "miniature sleigh" and "eight tiny reindeer" helped consolidate the diverse European gift-givers into an enduring tradition in which American children awake early on Christmas morning to see what Santa brought. Although the names, appearance, attire and gift-giving practices of the world's winter solstice gift-givers differ greatly, they are all recognizable as Santa, the personification of the Christmas and Midwinter festivals. Despite efforts to eliminate him by groups as diverse as the Puritans of seventeenth century New England, the Communist Party of the twentieth century Soviet Union and the government of Nazi Germany, Santa has survived and prospered, becoming one of the best known and most beloved figures in the world.

Book Synopsis A New Gestalt of God by : Lester Carney
Download or read book A New Gestalt of God written by Lester Carney and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2017-05-11 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All the world loves a lover, according to Ralph Waldo Emerson. Then why doesnt all the world love God? Because God, correctly understood, is a lover. He is not just any lover, but also the original lover, the worlds best lover, and the origin of all lovers. Obviously, God has not been correctly understood. He has not been seen as the lover he is. Perhaps the problem is that love itself has not been correctly understood. For many, love is just a feeling, but true love is much more than a feeling. True love is an action. A New Gestalt of God reaffirms God as a god of love. It shows how justice and grace combine to form his love. It shows the causes of the misunderstanding of God. It shows how a correct understanding of God can be reestablished. What God ultimately wants is a loving relationship between himself and each one of his children. Do you love a lover? This book will help you understand Gods love better and help you become a better lover of God.
