Book excerpt: MAN BOOKER PRIZE NOMINEE • From the acclaimed author of Outlaws • For decades, Enric Marco was revered as a veteran of the Spanish Civil War, a crusader for justice, and a Holocaust survivor. But in May 2005, at the height of his renown, he was exposed as a fraud. Marco was never in a Nazi concentration camp. And perhaps the rest of his past was fabricated, too, a combination of his delusions of grandeur and his compulsive lying. In this hypnotic narrative, which combines fiction and nonfiction, detective story and war story, biography and autobiography, Javier Cercas sets out to unravel Marco’s enigma. With both profound compassion and lacerating honesty, Cercas probes one man’s gigantic lie to explore the deepest, most flawed parts of our humanity.

Book Synopsis Cinema Without Reflection by : Akira Mizuta Lippit
Download or read book Cinema Without Reflection written by Akira Mizuta Lippit and published by Forerunners: Ideas First. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cinema without Reflection traces an implicit film theory in Jacques Derrida's oeuvre, especially in his frequent invocation of the myth of Echo and Narcissus. Derrida's reflections on the economies of image and sound that reverberate in this story, along with the spectral dialectics of love, mirrors, and poiesis, serve as the basis for a theory of cinema that Derrida perhaps secretly imagined. Following Derrida's interventions on Echo and Narcissus across his thought on the visual arts, Akira Mizuta Lippit seeks to return to a theory of cinema adrift in Derrida's philosophy. Forerunners is a thought-in-process series of breakthrough digital works. Written between fresh ideas and finished books, Forerunners draws on scholarly work initiated in notable blogs, social media, conference plenaries, journal articles, and the synergy of academic exchange. This is gray literature publishing: where intense thinking, change, and speculation take place in scholarship.
Book Synopsis Why Are You So Attracted to Narcissists? by : Molly Sheldon
Download or read book Why Are You So Attracted to Narcissists? written by Molly Sheldon and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What was the first horror story? Was it the story of Narcissus and Echo? Was Echo the first victim of a monster? Was she driven to suicide? The world lives under the curse of malignant narcissism. These mind vampires suck the life out of everyone they drag into their shared fantasy. They ruin lives. They sacrifice everyone to themselves. They would rather the whole world change than that they should change. They believe themselves gods. They think the whole world should dance to their tune and then fall on their knees to worship them. And what of poor Echo? Come and explore Echo's tale of woe. Hear her own words. Hear her try to understand her plight. Why did she make herself a victim of a man? Was she condemned to be punished for her love? Did she love too much? No one loves with the intensity of an Echo. Except Narcissus, of course. Narcissus loved himself to death. And he took Echo with him. This is a tale like no other. It has it all – men too obsessed with themselves, and women too obsessed with the men in their lives. Here, we let Echo speak for herself. She explains exactly what happened to her. She lost her mind – to love. It's the oldest story. And it's a story being repeated everywhere to this very day. Look around you on social media. You will see countless Echoes fluttering around malignant narcissists and doing anything for them. Narcissus, these days, is always a cult leader. And his Echoes are just as obsessed as ever.

Book Synopsis The Lessons of Nature in Mythology by : Rachel S. McCoppin
Download or read book The Lessons of Nature in Mythology written by Rachel S. McCoppin and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-10-29 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This examination of myths from around the world focuses on the role nature plays within mythology. Creation myths from myriad cultures recognized that life arose from natural elements, inextricably connecting human life to the natural world. Nature as portrayed in myth is unpredictable and destructive but also redemptive, providing solace and wisdom. Mythology relates the human life cycle to the seasons, with spring, summer, fall and winter as metaphors for birth, adulthood, old age and death. The author identifies divinities who were direct representations of natural phenomena. The transition of mythic representations from the Paleolithic to Neolithic period is discussed.
