A Little History of the World by E. H. Gombrich Pdf

E. H. Gombrich's Little History of the World, though written in 1935, has become one of the treasures of historical writing since its first publication in English in 2005. The Yale edition alone has now sold over half a million copies, and the book is available worldwide in almost thirty languages. Gombrich was of course the best-known art historian of his time, and his text suggests illustrations on every page. This illustrated edition of the Little History brings together the pellucid humanity of his narrative with the images that may well have been in his mind's eye as he wrote the book. The two hundred illustrations—most of them in full color—are not simple embellishments, though they are beautiful. They emerge from the text, enrich the author's intention, and deepen the pleasure of reading this remarkable work. For this edition the text is reset in a spacious format, flowing around illustrations that range from paintings to line drawings, emblems, motifs, and symbols. The book incorporates freshly drawn maps, a revised preface, and a new index. Blending high-grade design, fine paper, and classic binding, this is both a sumptuous gift book and an enhanced edition of a timeless account of human history.

The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ by Levi H. Dowling Pdf

The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ is a book by Levi H. Dowling who claimed that he had transcribed the text of the book from the kashic records, a purported compendium of mystical knowledge supposedly encoded in a non-physical plane of existence. In the later 20th century, it was adopted by New Age spiritual groups. The title is derived from the practice in astrology of naming time periods in terms of constellations and their dominant positions in the sky, according to the earth's axial precession. In that system, the Age of Aquarius is approaching. Content: Section I (Aleph): Birth and Early Life of Mary, Mother of Jesus Section II (Beth): Birth and Infancy of John, the Harbinger, and of Jesus Section III (Gimel): Education of Mary and Elizabeth in Zoan Section IV (Daleth): Childhood and Early Education of John the Harbinger Section V (He): Childhood and Early Education of Jesus Section VI (Vau): Life and Works of Jesus in India Section VII (Zain): Life and Works of Jesus in Tibet and Western India Section VIII (Cheth): Life and Works of Jesus in Persia Section IX (Teth): Life and Works of Jesus in Assyria Section X (Jod): Life and Works of Jesus in Greece Section XI (Caph): Life and Works of Jesus in Egypt Section XII (Lamed): The Council of the Seven Sages of the World Section XIII (Mem): The Ministry of John, the Harbinger Section XIV (Nun): The Christine Ministry of Jesus—Introductory Epoch Section XV (Samech): The First Annual Epoch of the Christine Ministry of Jesus Section XVI (Ain): The Second Annual Epoch of the Christine Ministry of Jesus Section XVII (Pe): The Third Annual Epoch of the Christine Ministry of Jesus Section XVIII (Tzaddi): The Arrest and Betrayal of Jesus Section XIX (Koph): The Trial and Execution of Jesus Section XX (Resh): The Resurrection of Jesus Section XXI (Schin): Materialization of the Spiritual Body of Jesus Section XXII (Tau): Establishment of the Christine Church

Oil! by Upton Sinclair Pdf

First edition of Sinclair's savage satire, loosely based on the life and career of Edward L. Doheny, and the Teapot Dome scandal of the Harding administration. Although Sinclair's famous novel The Jungle deals with Chicago's meatpacking industry, he moved west to Pasadena in 1916 and began writing novels set in California, the best of which was Oil!, the story of the education of Bunny Ross, son of wildcat oil man Joe Ross after oil is discovered outside Los Angeles. The novel was the basis for Paul Thomas Anderson's 2007 film There Will Be Blood. In California Classics, Lawrence Clark Powell called Oil! "Sinclair's most sustained and best writing."

An Anglo-Norman Reader by Jane Bliss Pdf

This book is an anthology with a difference. It presents a distinctive variety of Anglo-Norman works, beginning in the twelfth century and ending in the nineteenth, covering a broad range of genres and writers, introduced in a lively and thought-provoking way. Facing-page translations, into accessible and engaging modern English, are provided throughout, bringing these texts to life for a contemporary audience. The collection offers a selection of fascinating passages, and whole texts, many of which are not anthologised or translated anywhere else. It explores little-known byways of Arthurian legend and stories of real-life crime and punishment; women’s voices tell history, write letters, berate pagans; advice is offered on how to win friends and influence people, how to cure people’s ailments and how to keep clear of the law; and stories from the Bible are retold with commentary, together with guidance on prayer and confession. Each text is introduced and elucidated with notes and full references, and the material is divided into three main sections: Story (a variety of narrative forms), Miscellany (including letters, law and medicine, and other non-fiction), and Religious (saints' lives, sermons, Bible commentary, and prayers). Passages in one genre have been chosen so as to reflect themes or stories that appear in another, so that the book can be enjoyed as a collection or used as a resource to dip into for selected texts. This anthology is essential reading for students and scholars of Anglo-Norman and medieval literature and culture. Wide-ranging and fully referenced, it can be used as a springboard for further study or relished in its own right by readers interested to discover Anglo-Norman literature that was written to amuse, instruct, entertain, or admonish medieval audiences.
