Download or read book The Seekers written by Daniel J. Boorstin and published by Vintage. This book was released on 1998-12-03 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history, from the time of Socrates to our own modern age, the human race has sought the answers to fundamental questions of life: Who are we? Why are we here? In his previous national bestsellers, The Discoverers and The Creators , Daniel J. Boorstin first told brilliantly how e discovered the reality of our world, and then he celebrated man's achievements in the arts. He now turns to the great figures in history who sought meaning and purpose in our existence. Boorstin says our Western culture has seen three grand epics of Seeking. First there was the heroic way of prophets and philosophers--men like Moses or Job or Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, as well as those in the communities of the early church universities and the Protestant Reformation--seeking salvation or truth from the god above or the reason within each of us. Then came an age of communal seeking, with people like Thucydides and Thomas More and Machiavelli and Voltaire pursuing civilization and the liberal spirit. Finally, there was an age of the social sciences, when man seemed ruled by the forces of history. Here are the absorbing stories of exceptional men such as Marx, Spengler, and Toynbee, Carlyle and Emerson, and Malraux, Bergson, and Einstein. These great thinkers still have the power to speak to us, not always so much for their answers as for their way of asking the questions that never cease either to intrigue or to obsess us. In this impressive climax to a monumental trilogy, Daniel J. Boorstin once again shows that his ability to present challenging ideas, coupled with sharp portraits of great writers and thinkers, remains unparalleled.

Twelve-year-old Bryn has always dreamed of becoming a Seeker, just like her dad. Only the Seekers are allowed to journey from their small village into the fantastical, untamed wilderness of their island known as the Wild Realm. Once there, they obtain magical items for the village and use magic to protect and heal the incredible creatures native to the Realm. When one of the elderly Seekers retires, leaving a vacant position, Bryn knows this may be her chance. There’s just one problem: Only boys have ever been Seekers. And the training master makes it clear he will not be training a girl. But then Bryn’s biggest rival for the Seeker position, a boy named Ari, shows up at her door. He reveals the baby dragon he’s been hiding, and the two strike a deal—if Bryn helps care for the dragon, Ari will share all his training with her. Even as the two bond over their love of magical animals and their secret trips into the Wild Realm, Bryn doesn’t completely trust Ari’s motives. Especially as she suspects Ari may know more than he’s letting on about the enemy clan stirring up unrest in their village. When all these secrets come to a head and the stakes are at their highest, Bryn realizes it’s up to her to save her family…and the Realm.

Book excerpt: Perrin has spent all of her young life preparing to be the next laird of the large landholding Nytt Heimili and leader of her clan. With the scrawl of his signature and the stamping of the royal seal into melting wax, Prince Mallus, the newest ruling prince of Bortfjell has declared that no one who is not of pure Borfjellian blood can hold any positions of power. Because Perrin’s mother is from beyond the borders of Bortfjell and therefore considered to be of foreign blood, Perrin finds herself no longer in line to be the heir to either the landholding or the clan. In addition, there are those of Perrin’s father’s court who decide that the prince’s edict is not enough to solidify a shift of power in Nytt Heimili and are determined to eliminate Perrin, causing her to flee her home. With the help of two loyal companions, a wild hill cat named Kipp, several rover families, and a great deal of luck, Perrin’s journey away from all she has known takes her on an adventure filled with narrow escapes, a blowing snow filled mountain pass, scrutiny by the Sommerhjem border guard, and a number of surprises. Perrin’s journey leads her to a place never in her wildest imagination had she expected to find herself.
