Book Synopsis Jena of Atlantis, Legions of Overstar by : D.W. Anthony
Download or read book Jena of Atlantis, Legions of Overstar written by D.W. Anthony and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005-03-30 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jena of Atlantis, Legions of Overstar is the epic chronicle of the famous slave rebellion of 92,996 b.c. Our short, brown, nearsighted hero from the northeast portion of the continent must find a way to the southwest corner with her companions, to take part in the civil war. This was not a war against nature, as was so common then. It is a war against ideas and customs. Our small group uses ships, vehicles, and oceans of ingenuity to make their way across the dangerous terrain. The battles are carefully detailed, and each chapter is illustrated. A humor book, which does not rely on erotic, evil, or wizardry to deliver a compelling action tale.
Book Synopsis Jena of Atlantis, the Finger of Power by : D.W. Anthony
Download or read book Jena of Atlantis, the Finger of Power written by D.W. Anthony and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2004-06-17 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: D..W. Anthonys Atlantis Discovery series offers this forth book of explorations and humor in the ruins. We follow the spunky Jena as she travels with a converted assassin and an old palace guard to uncover the strange and mysterious ends of intrigue in a plot to put away the first emperor ever, sixty five thousand years ago. This is a comic tale of ultimate survival at sea, and among the cavernous misty hallways and temples of those in power. She learns what power is, and how it is used. The heroes are flawed, as usual. It is impossible for her to keep her glasses clean, and they are always short on weapons, but not action. For all ages.
Book Synopsis Fire in the Dragon and Other Psychoanalytic Essays on Folklore by : Géza Róheim
Download or read book Fire in the Dragon and Other Psychoanalytic Essays on Folklore written by Géza Róheim and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-08-10 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only Freudian to have been originally trained in folklore and the first psychoanalytic anthropologist to carry out fieldwork, Gza Rcheim (1891-1953) contributed substantially to the worldwide study of cultures. Combining a global perspective with encyclopedic knowledge of ethnographic sources, this Hungarian analyst demonstrates the validity of Freudian theory in both Western and non-Western settings. These seventeen essays, written between 1922 and 1953, are among Rcheim's most significant published writings and are collected here for the first time to introduce a new generation of readers to his unique interpretations of myths, folktales, and legends. From Australian aboriginal mythology to Native American trickster tales, from the Grimm folktale canon to Hungarian folk belief, Rcheim explores a wide range of issues, such as the relationship of dreams to folklore and the primacy of infantile conditioning in the formation of adult fantasy. An introduction by folklorist Alan Dundes describes Rcheim's career, and each essay is prefaced by a brief consideration of its intellectual and bibliographical context.

Book Synopsis The Bars of Atlantis by : Durs Grünbein
Download or read book The Bars of Atlantis written by Durs Grünbein and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2010-04-13 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This landmark collection of essays by one of the world's greatest living authors makes Durs Grünbein's wide-ranging and multifaceted prose available in English for the first time, and is a welcome complement to Ashes for Breakfast, his first book-length collection of poetry in English. Covering two decades, The Bars of Atlantis unfurls the entire breadth and depth of Grünbein's essayistic genius. Memoiristic and autobiographical pieces that introduce Grünbein, the man and the author, and tell the story of the making of a poet and thinker toward the end of a century marked by global political strife, unprecedented human suffering, long decades of totalitarian rule, and, in its final quarter, the dawn of a new, post–Cold War world order; essays that focus on Grünbein's major philosophical and aesthetic concerns, such as the intersection of art and science, literature and biology; extended reflections on the existential, cultural, political, and ethical import of the poet's craft in the contemporary world; and, finally, explorations of the meaning of classical antiquity for the present—all contribute to making.
Book Synopsis Cosmic Order and Divine Power by : Johan C. Thom
Download or read book Cosmic Order and Divine Power written by Johan C. Thom and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2014-09-18 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The treatise De mundo offers a cosmology in the Peripatetic tradition which subordinates what happens in the cosmos to the might of an omnipotent god. Thus the work is paradigmatic for the philosophical and religious concepts of the early imperial age, which offer points of contact with nascent Christianity.
Download or read book Ocean written by Steve Mentz and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. The ocean comprises the largest object on our planet. Retelling human history from an oceanic rather than terrestrial point of view unsettles our relationship with the natural environment. Our engagement with the world's oceans can be destructive, as with today's deluge of plastic trash and acidification, but the mismatch between small bodies and vast seas also emphasizes the frailty and resilience of human experience. From ancient stories of shipwrecked sailors to the containerized future of 21st-century commerce, Ocean splashes the histories we thought we knew into salty and unfamiliar places. Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.
Book Synopsis Space Sirens, Scientists and Princesses by : Dean Conrad
Download or read book Space Sirens, Scientists and Princesses written by Dean Conrad and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-06-07 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women are now central to many science fiction films--but that has not always been the case. Female characters, from their token presence (or absence) in the silent pictures of the early 20th century to their roles as assistants, pulp princesses and sexy robots, and eventually as scientists, soldiers and academics, have often struggled to be seen and heard in a genre traditionally regarded as of men, by men and for men. Surveying more than 650 films across 120 years, the author charts the highs and lows of women's visibility in science fiction's cinematic history through the effects of two world wars, social and cultural upheavals and advances in film technology.
Book Synopsis The Mandaean Book of John by : Charles G. Häberl
Download or read book The Mandaean Book of John written by Charles G. Häberl and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-11-18 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the degree of popular fascination with Gnostic religions, it is surprising how few pay attention to the one such religion that has survived from antiquity until the present day: Mandaism. Mandaeans, who esteem John the Baptist as the most famous adherent to their religion, have in our time found themselves driven from their historic homelands by war and oppression. Today, they are a community in crisis, but they provide us with unparalleled access to a library of ancient Gnostic scriptures, as part of the living tradition that has sustained them across the centuries. Gnostic texts such as these have caught popular interest in recent times, as traditional assumptions about the original forms and cultural contexts of related religious traditions, such as Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, have been called into question. However, we can learn only so much from texts in isolation from their own contexts. Mandaean literature uniquely allows us not only to increase our knowledge about Gnosticism, and by extension all these other religions, but also to observe the relationship between Gnostic texts, rituals, beliefs, and living practices, both historically and in the present day.
Book Synopsis Omnipotent Government by : Ludwig Von Mises
Download or read book Omnipotent Government written by Ludwig Von Mises and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2013-04-16 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liberty is not, as the German precursors of Nazism asserted, a negative ideal. Whether a concept is presented in an affirmative or in a negative form is merely a question of idiom. Freedom from want is tantamount to the expression striving after a state of affairs under which people are better supplied with necessities. Freedom of speech is tantamount to a state of affairs under which everybody can say what he wants to say. At the bottom of all totalitarian doctrines lies the belief that the rulers are wiser and loftier than their subjects and that they therefore know better what benefits those ruled than they themselves. Werner Sombart, for many years a fanatical champion of Marxism and later a no less fanatical advocate of Nazism, was bold enough to assert frankly that the Führer gets his orders from God, the supreme Führer of the universe, and that Führertum is a permanent revelation.* Whoever admits this, must, of course, stop questioning the expediency of government omnipotence. Those disagreeing with this theocratical justification of dictatorship claim for themselves the right to discuss freely the problems involved. They do not write state with a capital S. They do not shrink from analyzing the metaphysical notions of Hegelianism and Marxism. They reduce all this high-sounding oratory to the simple question: are the means suggested suitable to attain the ends sought? In answering this question, they hope to render a service to the great majority of their fellow men.
Book Synopsis The Myth of the Eternal Return by : Mircea Eliade
Download or read book The Myth of the Eternal Return written by Mircea Eliade and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1954 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essay on mankind's experience of history and its interpretation, beginning with a study of the traditional or mythological view, and concluding with a comparative estimate of modern historiological approaches. At a moment when modern man has brought his race almost to the point of annihilation, the historical attitude has been all but discredited. The author seeks an answer to the question: What can protect us from the terror of history?
Book Synopsis The Chemical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreutz by : Joscelyn Godwin
Download or read book The Chemical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreutz written by Joscelyn Godwin and published by Red Wheel/Weiser. This book was released on 1991-10-01 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chemical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreutz, often looked upon as the third Rosicrucian manifesto, has an entirely different tone from the other Rosicrucian documents. Unlike the Rosicrucian manifestoes, which address the transformation of society, The Chemical Wedding is concerned with the inner transformation of the soul. It is a deeply interior work, one which asks the reader to step into its world of symbols and walk with Christian Rosenkreutz along his path of transformation. Despite its importance as a key text of the Western esoteric traditions, this is the first ever contemporary English translation of The Chemical Wedding, made especially for this edition by Joscelyn Godwin. Also included in this edition is an introduction and commentary by Adam McLean, which illuminates the transformative symbolism.
