Book excerpt: Standing on the riches of humanity’s holy books and traditions, drawing on our wealth of scientific and technological knowledge, and injecting his own creativity and humour, Yoda Oraiah presents his readers with a potential new religion—Cosmism. Cosmism: A New Hope for Humanity is a thorough exploration of human belief and creed through history, accompanied by an exhaustive detailing of a new way, a new understanding, and an inspired approach to life. Cosmism is a Space Age philosophical model and belief system that is built upon the aspects of intelligence and consciousness present in the universe. It sees the entire Cosmos as God and humans as part and parcel of this great orderly system we seem to live in. Cosmists believe that since we are part of this Cosmos, we have the capacity to influence its life and evolution, and our relationship with this greatest system is something important to recognize and cherish in our lives. Hard-hitting, thought-provoking, and entertaining, Cosmism: A New Hope for Humanity will challenge readers to explore their place in the Cosmos and their relationship with its other inhabitants.

Book Synopsis A History of Western American Literature by : Susan Kollin
Download or read book A History of Western American Literature written by Susan Kollin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American West is a complex region that has inspired generations of writers and artists. Often portrayed as a quintessential landscape that symbolizes promise and progress for a developing nation, the American West is also a diverse space that has experienced conflicting and competing hopes and expectations. While it is frequently imagined as a place enabling dreams of new beginnings for settler communities, it is likewise home to longstanding Indigenous populations as well as many other ethnic and racial groups who have often produced different visions of the land. This History encompasses the intricacy of Western American literature by exploring myriad genres and cultural movements, from ecocriticism, settler colonial studies, and transnational theory to race, ethnic, gender, and sexuality studies. Written by a host of leading historians and literary critics, this book offers readers insight into the West as a site that sustains canonical and emerging authors alike, and as a region that exceeds national boundaries in addressing long-standing global concerns and developments.
