The Plow, the Pen and the Sword by Rudi Künzel Pdf

This book compares the cultures of the different social groups living in the Low Countries in the early Middle Ages. Clergy, nobility, peasants and townsmen greatly varied in their attitudes to labor, property, violence, and the handling and showing of emotions. Künzel explores how these social groups looked at themselves as a group, and how they looked at the other groups. Image and self-image could differ radically. The results of this research are specified and tested in four case studies on the interaction between group cultures, focusing respectively on the influence of oral and written traditions on a literary work, rituals as a means of conflict management in weakly centralized societies, stories as an expression of an urban group mentality, and beliefs on death and the afterlife.

White Magic by Lothar Müller Pdf

Paper is older than the printing press, and even in its unprinted state it was the great network medium behind the emergence of modern civilization. In the shape of bills, banknotes and accounting books it was indispensible to the economy. As forms and files it was essential to bureaucracy. As letters it became the setting for the invention of the modern soul, and as newsprint it became a stage for politics. In this brilliant new book Lothar Müller describes how paper made its way from China through the Arab world to Europe, where it permeated everyday life in a variety of formats from the thirteenth century onwards, and how the paper technology revolution of the nineteenth century paved the way for the creation of the modern daily press. His key witnesses are the works of Rabelais and Grimmelshausen, Balzac and Herman Melville, James Joyce and Paul Valéry. Müller writes not only about books, however: he also writes about pamphlets, playing cards, papercutting and legal pads. We think we understand the ?Gutenberg era?, but we can understand it better when we explore the world that underpinned it: the paper age. Today, with the proliferation of digital devices, paper may seem to be a residue of the past, but Müller shows that the humble technology of paper is in many ways the most fundamental medium of the modern world.

The Dakini Codex by Nicole Personette Pdf

The Dakini Codex is a compilation of poetry that describes ancient and esoteric truths, hidden mysteries, and deeply spiritual and metaphysical subjects placed into simplistic forms. It is much like a zip drive that compresses information. Through the processes of a spiritual awakening, the book takes the reader through a journey of consciousness. It includes work that was compiled as an adolescent describing aspects of life that touches the wisdom of the ages. It provides snapshots of visuals through words to describe picturesque scenes. It resorts to sonnets of love that determined kings in Sumerian ages. It is written from the lineage of the lotus-born masters and ties in with the genealogy of Mary Magdalene and Isis. It is reminiscent of ancient technologies and creation aspects. This is written as a gift to mankind and to the evolutionary and creative forms of enlightenment and spiritual complexes.

The Unnamed by Cemore Pdf

Poetry that understands why so many today simply don't like poetry. This is poetry for the rest of us. These roses might not be red, yet here are sown the blossoms of disaccord, and while the violets grown here betray even the blues of yesteryore, we'll find weakness betrayed and may even discover love to be shorn and cultivated for the benefit of all. With razor tenacity and foreboding, yet whimsical jest, this has something to offend everyone. An epic tale about everything and nothing at all. It's an offer to come lie in peaceful glade and rage in blood-thirsty game, to fornicate within the realms forbidden and love as the divinity only yourself can create.

The Plow and the Sword by Rabbi David Rabeeya, PH.D.,David Rabeeya Pdf

This anthology includes a novella about the metamorphosis of one man from a peaceful, loving person to a fanatic, radical, religious zealot. Other sections include the destructive use and abuse of God in human history, as well as the loss of the Jewish Iraqi civilization and its effects on their individual and communal life in Iraq and Israel. Finally, the Lexicon is about the Middle East undressing the mythological concepts and ideas about the region, offering new realistic definitions for terms associated with Zionism and Arab nationalism. Dr. Rabeeya continues to provoke the readers to think about his own interpretations of Jewish and Arab histories, as well as the loss of many individuals who are left only with their pen and mouth to record real events that have affected the soul and the memories of those who are stripped from their dignity and honor.
