Book excerpt: "The book of Lilith tells the real story of creation. Lilith is the first human to be given a soul by God following a thirteen billion year process of mechanical, soulless evolution. Her job is to give souls to all things and awaken them to the Watcher that watches the watcher, watching the world. The first person she grants a soul to is Adam, who is given a job of his own: to invent the definition of sin, create a moral sense in a world that utterly lacks one, and hence bring about the rule of law in a compassionate society. Unfortunately, Adam has a hard time accepting the fact that he was given his soul second, instead of first, and by Lilith, not God. The conflict this engenders leads to the destruction of Eden, the creation of Eve, and a voyage of self-discovery that spans a world"--P. [4] of cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In part a sequel to his earlier Death and Fantasy, William Gray’s Fantasy, Art and Life: Essays on George MacDonald, Robert Louis Stevenson and Other Fantasy Writers examines the ways in which “Life” in its various senses is affirmed, explored and enhanced through the work of the creative imagination, especially in fantasy literature. The discussion includes a range of fantasy writers, but focuses chiefly on two writers of the Victorian period, George MacDonald and Robert Louis Stevenson, whose Scottish (and particularly Calvinist) backgrounds deeply affected their engagement with what MacDonald called “The Fantastic Imagination.”

Book Synopsis Lilith – The First Eve by : Siegmund Hurwitz
Download or read book Lilith – The First Eve written by Siegmund Hurwitz and published by Daimon. This book was released on 2020 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a fascinating excursion through the history of her myth, Siegmund Hurwitz presents and interprets the ancient dark-winged goddess Lilith, also known as ’the first Eve.’ The author’s extraordinarily meticulous study of the original sources brings to light a striking figure long lost from our awareness, yet highly relevant to a psychological understanding of today’s evolving masculine and feminine identities. Case material from his analytical practice imbeds Lilith in the everyday problems of contemporary life. That an unbridled life-urge which refuses to be assimilated lies behind depression… seems to me to be a new and important discovery. By combining the experience of a contemporary man with this historical material, Siegmund Hurwitz sheds new light on both. -- From the Foreword by Marie-Louise von Franz
Book Synopsis Lilith's Dream by : Whitley Strieber
Download or read book Lilith's Dream written by Whitley Strieber and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2002-10-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ancient vampire, beautiful beyond words, a vulnerable young man drawn to her by a power beyond his understanding, two desperate parents searching across the world for the son they love -- these are the riveting, unexpected elements of Whitley Strieber's extraordinary new novel. Lilith, the ages-old mother of the dying race of vampires, has been forced to come out of her cave deep in the Egyptian desert in search of food -- human blood. But she knows nothing about the modern world. She can't drive a car, rent a room, turn on a TV. She struggles to New York, penniless, vulnerable, and starving, protected only by her beauty and her power to capture men with desire...especially certain very special men. The instant she sees young Ian Ward, she knows that he is part vampire himself. She knows that Ian, if he ever tastes human blood, will belong to her forever. And she needs him desperately, to help her survive and live in this harsh new world of jets and credit cards and guns. She sets out on a campaign of seduction -- as sensuous as it is terrifying -- to touch human blood to Ian's lips, which will then become for him a drug a thousand times more addictive than heroin. Ian's father, Paul Ward, part vampire turned expert and obsessive hunter of vampires, knows that if the blood transforms Ian, Paul will have to kill his own son. The titanic conflict between father and son and seductress, hunter and hunted and huntress, comes to its surprise conclusion in the secret chambers beneath the great pyramids, where the hidden truths of all human history are stored. From its beginning in the dark back alleys of Cairo to its totally unexpected ending, Lilith's Dream draws the reader down seductive new paths of discovery, into places where no novel has ever before. With Lilith's Dream Whitley Strieber has created a vampire so original and a story so new that he has virtually invented a new genre.
Book Synopsis The Emergence of the Fourth Dimension by : Mark Blacklock
Download or read book The Emergence of the Fourth Dimension written by Mark Blacklock and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-05 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Emergence of the Fourth Dimension describes the development and proliferation of the idea of higher dimensional space in the late nineteenth- and early twentieth-centuries. An idea from mathematics that was appropriated by occultist thought, it emerged in the fin de siècle as a staple of genre fiction and influenced a number of important Modernist writers and artists. Providing a context for thinking of space in dimensional terms, the volume describes an active interplay between self-fashioning disciplines and a key moment in the popularisation of science. It offers new research into spiritualism and the Theosophical Society and studies a series of curious hybrid texts. Examining works by Joseph Conrad, Ford Madox Ford, H.G. Wells, Henry James, H. P. Lovecraft, and others, the volume explores how new theories of the possibilities of time and space influenced fiction writers of the period, and how literature shaped, and was in turn shaped by, the reconfiguration of imaginative space occasioned by the n-dimensional turn. A timely study of the interplay between philosophy, literature, culture, and mathematics, it offers a rich resource for readers interested in nineteenth century literature, Modernist studies, science fiction, and gothic scholarship.

Book Synopsis Lilith's Fire by : Deborah Grenn-Scott
Download or read book Lilith's Fire written by Deborah Grenn-Scott and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2000-07 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Lilith's Fire, Grenn-Scott examines why and how modern women are still demonized-identified as "bad" for actions perceived as reasonable for men, through techniques used for thousands of years-and how women have started to reverse this tendency by redefining right and wrong. Demonization, she notes, has been effective: controlling, manipulating and dividing women to keep them powerless, pitting Lilith against Eve, "good girl" against "bad girl"; and as a means of keeping one group, religion or idea dominant over another. In dismantling this technique, the author shows that portrayals of women as innately evil undermine the self-confidence of all women, and in turn their ability to take risks, assume leadership or claim power, from bedroom to boardroom. She provides strong models for women of a more proud, sensual, confident way of being; along the way, she poses difficult questions, such as: How can women become more aware that they have choice? Do we give our religious and spiritual leaders too much power? How do we make change, in our own lives and in the world? What forms of social action are most effective? Lilith's Fire opens a dialogue that the author hopes may lead to some answers, as it offers women a transformational tool to help them recognize, appreciate and draw on the strength and creativity of their own lifeforce, the first step in creating positive change.

Book Synopsis Lilith The Forgotten Goddess by : Halue Mane
Download or read book Lilith The Forgotten Goddess written by Halue Mane and published by Ahzuria Publishing. This book was released on 2024-08-29 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lilith The Forgotten Goddess The traditional story of creation holds a mystery that has been perpetuated for centuries. Was Eve really Adam's first wife? Many cultures around the world say not. According to these traditions, before Eve, God created another woman, one who refused to take on a subordinate role to the man represented by Adam. Lilith, rejecting submission, fled Eden and was later demonized by the patriarchal cultures that developed. However, Lilith has evolved from a figure associated with evil in ancient traditions to become a contemporary symbol of emancipated femininity. Through a detailed analysis of historical texts, mystical traditions and modern reinterpretations, this book explores the complexities of Lilith and her lasting influence on discussions of gender, power and autonomy. The narrative reveals how Lilith transcended her origins to become an icon of resistance and a reflection of cultural and social struggles for equality. Over the centuries, the figure of Lilith has been a controversial and multifaceted symbol, representing both a feared threat and a force for female empowerment. This book traces Lilith's evolution from her roots in Mesopotamian and Jewish traditions, where she was seen as an evil spirit, to her modern re-signification as an icon of emancipatory femininity. The work explores how Lilith, initially demonized for her refusal to submit to male authority, has been reconfigured over time, especially in mystical and esoteric contexts, as a figure of power and resistance. By analyzing her various representations, the book highlights Lilith's relevance in contemporary discussions about gender, power and autonomy, offering a comprehensive view of how ancient myths can influence and reflect modern struggles for equality. This narrative not only sheds light on Lilith's past, but also places her at the center of current debates on identity and freedom.
Book Synopsis Women and Judaism by : Malka Drucker
Download or read book Women and Judaism written by Malka Drucker and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2009-04-30 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributors to Women and Judaism describe the many ways in which women are claiming a place in and changing the face of this ancient religion. "Women and Judaism," the editor writes, "carries an intention to do more than bring the reader new ideas to ponder. For Jewish women, it's a charge to claim and re-claim their rightful place in their tradition ... For non-Jewish sisters, we hope that it encourages you to bring change in your traditions as you learn of our effort to be counted as full members of an ancient spiritual community." In this all-encompassing exploration of Judaism for the modern woman, readers attend the first the Bat Mitzvah 70 years ago, hear an imagined response of biblical mothers asked to give up their children, and learn how each holiday contains an ecological message. Readers explore the power of women within a patriarchal tradition, including the story of the first woman rabbi. Readers see demonstrations of how women keep body, mind, and spirit alive, read a new view of biblical women as heroic role models, and enter the memory of women Holocaust survivors. Some contributors write about sexuality, power, and vulnerability, while others present the newest women's rituals, including Rosh Hodesh and mikveh.
