Download or read book Hesiod's Cosmos written by Jenny Strauss Clay and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-10-30 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hesiod's Cosmos offers a comprehensive interpretation of both the Theogony and the Works and Days and demonstrates how the two Hesiodic poems must be read together as two halves of an integrated whole embracing both the divine and the human cosmos. After first offering a survey of the structure of both poems, Professor Clay reveals their mutually illuminating unity by offering detailed analyses of their respective poems, their teachings on the origins of the human race and the two versions of the Prometheus myth. She then examines the role of human beings in the Theogony and the role of the gods in the Works and Days, as well as the position of the hybrid figures of monsters and heroes within the Hesiodic cosmos and in relation to the Hesiodic Catalogue of Women.

Book excerpt: 'Wondering and wonderful. The nature book of the year.' JOHN LEWIS-STEMPEL 'This lovely book is almost as thrilling as the bird's immortal song - balm for a troubled soul and a glimpse of paradise.' JOANNA LUMLEY ______________________________ Come to the forest, sit by the fireside and listen to intoxicating song, as Sam Lee tells the story of the nightingale. Every year, as darkness falls upon woodlands, the nightingale heralds the arrival of Spring. Throughout history, its sweet song has inspired musicians, writers and artists around the world, from Germany, France and Italy to Greece, Ukraine and Korea. Here, passionate conservationist, renowned musician and folk expert Sam Lee tells the story of the nightingale. This book reveals in beautiful detail the bird's song, habitat, characteristics and migration patterns, as well as the environmental issues that threaten its livelihood. From Greek mythology to John Keats, to Persian poetry and 'A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square', Lee delves into the various ways we have celebrated the nightingale through traditions, folklore, music, literature, from ancient history to the present day. The Nightingale is a unique and lyrical portrait of a famed yet elusive songbird. ______________________________ 'Sam Lee has brought the poetic magic that has long enchanted so many of his musical fans into the written word. Allow yourself to glimpse the world Sam sees, to be part of his love affair with the nightingale, and you will no doubt be delighted.' LILY COLE 'A wonderful book.' STEPHEN MOSS 'A magical marriage of the lyrical and practical: a book that makes us want to seek out the nightingale and then reveals how we can.' TRISTAN GOOLEY

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amalie Vyrdolak has lived a long, interesting life. Born with a voice so enchanting she was dubbed The Nightingale, her village elders handed her off to a warlord to pay their annual protection tithe. Amalie's beautiful voice and sharp mind quickly made her the warlord's favorite toy. When she led a revolt and ousted him as the clan's leader, she went from his lover to his archenemy. But that was a long time ago, and now Amalie lives a quiet life running her crystal shop in Prague's Old Town, and occasionally singing for the tourists. Then Hawk swept into town, wearing his black cape and only doing business at night, and everything changed. Hawk knows he makes an impression, and he likes it that way. He didn't build his business from the ground up by staying quiet or playing by the rules, and as a result he owns a dozen successful nightclubs across Europe. Nightclubs were really the best option for him, since he conducted nearly all of his business after sunset, and made a point of being back in his bed before sunrise. Really, it was a wonder one of those new age paranormal groups hadn't caught on to his exploits, and started a podcast about him. Then again, Hawk would rather like a podcast dedicated to his adventures. When Hawk opened his thirteenth club, the Moravian Ballroom, he knew there was a crystal shop next door. What he hadn't expected was for the shop's owner, a woman with the face of a goddess and the voice of an angel, to pierce his heart in a way no one ever had before, so much so that when Amalie's ex-lover, a brute called Marek, came to town intent on destroying their newfound happiness, Hawk swears to destroy him instead. The Hawk and the Nightingale is a spicy paranormal romance featuring vampires, old grudges, and red hot revenge.

Book excerpt: A melodious paean to the natural history and symbolic meaning of the most prized, poetized, and mythologized of songbirds. The nightingale has a unique place in cultural history: the most prized of songbirds, it has inspired more poems than any other creature, and it is also the most mythologized of birds. Nightingale juxtaposes the bird of poetry, music, myth, and lore with the living bird of wood and scrubland, unpicking the entangled relationship between them. Covering a huge range of poets, musicians, artists, nature writers, and natural historians—from Aristotle, Keats, and Vera Lynn to Bob Dylan—Nightingale charts our fascination through history with this nondescript yet melodious little brown bird. It also documents the nightingale’s disappearance from British breeding grounds and the implications this has for nightingale conservation.

Download or read book Playing Hesiod written by Helen Van Noorden and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a new description of the significance of Hesiod's 'myth of the races' for ancient Greek and Roman authors, showing how the most detailed responses to this story go far beyond nostalgia for a lost 'Golden' age or hope of its return. Through a series of close readings, it argues that key authors from Plato to Juvenal rewrite the story to reconstruct 'Hesiod' more broadly as predecessor in forming their own intellectual and rhetorical projects; disciplines such as philosophy, didactic poetry and satire all engage in implicit questions about 'Hesiodic' teaching. The first chapter introduces key issues; the second re-evaluates the account in Hesiod's Works and Days. A major chapter outlines Plato's use of Hesiod through close study of the Protagoras, Republic and Statesman. Subsequent chapters focus on Aratus' Phaenomena and Ovid's Metamorphoses; the final chapter, on the Octavia attributed to Seneca and Juvenal's sixth Satire, broadens ideas of Hesiod's reception in Rome.

Book excerpt: Aesop was an Ancient Greek story-teller and slave, famed and cherished for his short fables that often involve personified animals. In the renowned collection of works that is Aesop's Fables, he weaves moral education and entertainment together into tales that have been enjoyed by many, many generations. A lot of the stories in Aesop's Fables, such as The Fox and the Grapes (giving us the term "sour grapes"), The Tortoise and the Hare, The North Wind and the Sun and The Boy Who Cried Wolf, are well-known across the world. The 1st century philosopher Apollonius of Tyana said of Aesop that "like those who dine well off the plainest dishes, he made use of humble incidents to teach great truths."
