Download or read book Star Tales written by Ian Ridpath and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every night, a pageant of Greek mythology circles overhead. Perseus flies to the rescue of Andromeda, Orion faces the charge of the snorting Bull, and the ship of the Argonauts sails in search of the Golden Fleece. Constellations are the invention of human imagination, not of nature. They are an expression of the human desire to impress its own order upon the apparent chaos of the night sky. Modern science tells us that these twinkling points of light are glowing balls of gas, but the ancient Greeks, to whom we owe many of our constellations, knew nothing of this. Ian Ridpath, award-winning astronomy writer and popularizer, has been intrigued by the myths of the stars for many years. Star Tales is the first modern guide to combine all the fascinating myths in one book, illustrated with the beautiful and evocative engravings from two of the leading star atlases: Johann Bode’s Uranographia of 1801 and John Flamsteed’s Atlas Coelestis of 1729. This classic book, now in a revised and expanded edition, presents additional information on the constellations with new and enchanting illustrations. For anyone interested in the stars and classical mythology, for anyone who is an armchair astronomer, this is the perfect gift.

Download or read book Homer: Iliad Book XVIII written by Homer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-10 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book 18 of the Iliad is an outstanding example of the range and power of Homeric epic. It describes the reaction of the hero Achilles to the death of his closest friend, and his decision to re-enter the conflict even though it means he will lose his own life. The book also includes the forging of the marvellous shield for the hero by the smith-god Hephaestus: the images on the shield are described by the poet in detail, and this description forms the archetypal ecphrasis, influential on many later writers. In an extensive introduction, R. B. Rutherford discusses the themes, style and legacy of the book. The commentary provides line-by-line guidance for readers at all levels, addressing linguistic detail and larger questions of interpretation. A substantial appendix considers the relation between Iliad 18 and the Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh, which has been prominent in much recent discussion.

Download or read book Finding Orion written by John David Anderson and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed author of Ms. Bixby’s Last Day and Posted returns with an unforgettable tale of love and laughter, of fathers and sons, of what family truly means, and of the ways in which we sometimes need to lose something in order to find ourselves. Celebrate dads and Father's Day year-round with this warm and witty novel for tweens. Rion Kwirk comes from a rather odd family. His mother named him and his sisters after her favorite constellations, and his father makes funky-flavored jellybeans for a living. One sister acts as if she’s always on stage, and the other is a walking dictionary. But no one in the family is more odd than Rion’s grandfather, Papa Kwirk. He’s the kind of guy who shows up on his motorcycle only on holidays handing out crossbows and stuffed squirrels as presents. Rion has always been fascinated by Papa Kwirk, especially as his son—Rion’s father—is the complete opposite. Where Dad is predictable, nerdy, and reassuringly boring, Papa Kwirk is mysterious, dangerous, and cool. Which is why, when Rion and his family learn of Papa Kwirk’s death and pile into the car to attend his funeral and pay their respects, Rion can’t help but feel that that’s not the end of his story. That there’s so much more to Papa Kwirk to discover. He doesn’t know how right he is.

Download or read book Cold-Case Christianity written by J. Warner Wallace and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by an L. A. County homicide detective and former atheist, Cold-Case Christianity examines the claims of the New Testament using the skills and strategies of a hard-to-convince criminal investigator. Christianity could be defined as a “cold case”: it makes a claim about an event from the distant past for which there is little forensic evidence. In Cold-Case Christianity, J. Warner Wallace uses his nationally recognized skills as a homicide detective to look at the evidence and eyewitnesses behind Christian beliefs. Including gripping stories from his career and the visual techniques he developed in the courtroom, Wallace uses illustration to examine the powerful evidence that validates the claims of Christianity. A unique apologetic that speaks to readers’ intense interest in detective stories, Cold-Case Christianity inspires readers to have confidence in Christ as it prepares them to articulate the case for Christianity.

Download or read book Orion's Door written by Neil Hague and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-08 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Orion's Door explores the enormous influence one star system has had over humanity. For aeons, Orion and his key stars were worshipped all over the ancient world. Through alignments with earth's ancient monuments, to its appearance on corporate, military-industrial-political logos - Orion is everywhere! It's as though Orion's presence provides a 'blueprint' for our hierarchical structures. This unique and comprehensive book is a codex to the symbolism contained within Gnosticism, Alchemy and myths stretching back to the time of Atlantis - the 'Age of Orion'. In two distinct parts and with hundreds of illustrations, the book offers fresh insights into the 'Orion Mysteries'. It weaves together common themes found in Native star myths, esoteric symbolism, sacred science and magic, all of which are undeniably part of an occult language expressed today through movies (Hollywood) and linked to what Hague calls the 'Orion Cult'. The book sheds light on symbolism relating to: The 'Invisible Sun', 'Prometheus', 'Adam', 'Saturn', the 'Son of Man', 'Duality' and the 'Coronavirus' - showing how Orion symbolism is important to a New World Order unfolding today. Taking the reader through multiple layers of information, the book illustrates how human affairs have been 'inspired' and 'manipulated' by ancient-future, 'alien intelligence' for a very long time. Orion's story is crucial if we want to understand how and why the world is moving towards a 'robot-AI', 'technological reality' - a rapidly advancing 'Cyber-Grid Empire'. Orion's Door offers a 'window of opportunity', to go beyond ingrained beliefs influencing human perception; so to grasp our true, infinite celestial power - to become 'Superconsciousness' human beings.
