The Spirits' Book (Illustrated) by Allan Kardec Pdf
"For new ideas new words are needed, in order to secure clearness of language by avoiding the confusion inseparable from the employment of the same term for expressing different meanings. The words spiritual, spiritualist, spiritualism, have a definite acceptation; to give them a new one, in order to apply them to the doctrine set forth by spirits, would be to multiply the causes of amphibology, already so numerous."...
An illustrated book of spirits of the air and earth described in the Sworn Book of Honorius. The Sworn Book was a medieval book of spells which although contained the description of these apparitions, left the reader guessing as to their visual representation. Therefore, this book was created as a helpful guide to their appearance. Each spirit is carefully illustrated in accordance with the Sworn book and the imagination of the artist. Hopefully this book will aid anyone interested with envisioning these spirits and furthering their knowledge on this occult topic. A 28 page book with 8 illustrations and a description of spirits. Additional information and a spirit map. excerpt from the book: Each spirit has its own corresponding direction, planet and zodiac sign. According to Honorius some are good, and some are evil. The eastern and western ones are good and helpful, but the northern and southern ones are wild and harmful. This can be seen even in their appearance. Each spirit King has his subordinates, which create an entire system of hierarchy. All of the spirits move differently and each one provokes a different phenomenon when they appear.
Spirits Do Return (Illustrated Edition) by Ida Belle White Pdf
First published in 1915. The author believed this book was written through the inspirational spirit of the well-known writer, Samuel L.

In this day of the revival of "Spiritism," when so many... are longing to communicate with the dead, and are resorting to forbidden means to that end; a day in which science is trying to discover whether there is another world than this, and whether men live after death... it seems timely that a book should be written to show what the Holy Scriptures have revealed of the "World of Spirits." -from The Second Coming of Christ. The Reverend Clarence Larkin was one of the most widely influential pop theologians of the early twentieth century, and his works remain intriguing explorations of Christian philosophy today. First published in 1921, this fascinating book explores the depiction of angels, demons, and other spirits in the Bible, and features illustrations of "Satan's Throne," "Angels Appearing to Abraham," "Christ Casting Out a Demon," "The Witch of Endor," and more. Readers in religion, mythology, and classic literature will be riveted. Also available from Cosimo Classics: Larkin's The Second Coming of Christ, Rightly Dividing the Word, and The Book of Revelation.
The Spirit World: The Complete Text with All Illustrations and Charts by Clarence Larkin Pdf
In this book, Clarence Larkin explains the various elements of the spiritual world of Christianity; including demons; the underworld; resurrection; and man's relationship to the spirits. Unafraid to tackle topics often ignored or relegated to the barest mention by other theologians, in The Spirit World Clarence Larkin delves deeply into the topics such as hell, Satan and demonic manifestations. His accessible style is made further comprehensible by the myriad drawings and charts, which visually portray concepts which first appeared in the Bible. For decades in his role as a preacher and theologian, Larkin immersed himself in the depths of Biblical lore. His studies ranged from explaining obscure or cryptic books of the Bible, to clarifying the manifestations of spirits good and evil, and how these corporeal beings interact with one another and with humans. The machinations behind phenomena such as resurrection, fallen angels and the journey of the soul to the afterlife are topics which Larkin explains.
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1894 edition. Excerpt: ...His disciples and the people He preached to? Positively nothing! He mentioned it constantly, but He never gave any description of its joys or pleasures, of what they were to consist, or with whom partaken. The only allusion to the happiness of Heaven in the Scriptures is in the text: "Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of Man the things which God hath prepared for them who love Him." If the disciples were left without a more particular knowledge of the glories of Heaven, why should we degenerate mortals expect to enjoy a further revelation? And again, you may hold converse with a dozen spirits and each one may come from a different sphere. "In my Father's house are many mansions, if it were not so, I would have told you." The spirits which come from the lower spheres know no more than ourselves, with the exception of the blessed truth that there is no death. They smile at our innate fear of death, for though with them to ascend to a higher sphere entails a sleep like death, having once passed through it they think no more of it than we do of lying down in our beds after a long day's work. Of course, it is not likely that I should have had so many opportunities of conversing with spirits without putting questions to them about their lives in the other world, and what they do there, etc. I have sat for hours sometimes talking with them through trancemediumship on all sorts of subjects, but as I did not take shorthand notes _at the time, it is as difficult to remember all that we said to each other as it would be to recall the conversations I have had with my fellowmortals. As with all friendly converse, however, if we cannot remember the exact words used, the effect of the...

A Source Book for Mediaeval History : Selected Documents illustrating the History of Europe in the Middle Age by Oliver J. Thatcher,Edgar Holmes McNeal Pdf
A Source Book for Mediaeval History : Selected Documents illustrating the History of Europe in the Middle Age It will be observed that we have made use chiefly of documents, quoting from chronicles only when it seemed absolutely necessary. An exception to this general principle is found in section I, where a larger use of chronicles was rendered necessary by the lack of documentary sources for much of the period covered; but it is perhaps unnecessary to apologize for presenting selections from the important histories of Tacitus, Gregory, Einhard, and Widukind. In the matter of form (translation, omissions, arrangements, notes, etc.), we were guided by considerations of the purpose of the book. The style of most of the documents in the original is involved, obscure, bombastic, and repetitious. A faithful rendition into English would often be quite unintelligible. We have endeavored to make a clear and readable translation, but always to give the correct meaning. If we have failed in the latter it is not for want of constant effort. We have not hesitated to omit phrases and clauses, often of a parenthetical nature, the presence of which in the translation would only render the passage obscure and obstruct the thought. As a rule we have given the full text of the body of the document, but we have generally omitted the first and last paragraphs, the former containing usually titles and pious generalities, and the latter being composed of lists of witnesses, etc. We have given a sufficient number of the documents in full to illustrate these features of mediæval diplomatics. All but the most trivial omissions in the text (which are matters rather of form of translation) are indicated thus: ... Insertions in the text to explain the meaning of phrases are inclosed in brackets [ ]. Quotations from the Bible are regularly given in the words of the Authorized Version, but where the Latin (taken from the Vulgate) differs in any essential manner, we have sometimes translated the passage literally. Within each section the documents are arranged in chronological order, except in a few cases where the topical arrangement seemed necessary. We believe that the explanatory notes in the form of introductions and foot-notes will be found of service; they are by no means exhaustive, but are intended to explain the setting and importance of the document and the difficult or obscure passages it may contain. The reference to the work or the collection in which the original is found is given after the title of practically every document; the meaning of the references will be plain from the accompanying bibliography. The original of nearly all the documents is in Latin; some few are in Greek, Old French, or German, and in such cases the language of the original is indicated. It is impossible, of course, to give explicit directions as to the use of the book, other than the very obvious methods of requiring the student to read and analyze the documents assigned in connection with the lesson in the text-book, and of making clear to him the relation of the document to the event. It may be possible also for the teacher to give the student some notion of the meaning of "historical method"; e.g., the necessity of making allowance for the ignorance or the bias of the author in chronicles, or the way in which a knowledge of institutions is deduced from incidental references in documents. Suggestions of both sorts will be found in the introduction and notes. The teacher should insist on the use of such helps as are found in the book: notes, cross-references, glossary, etc. Groups of documents can be used to advantage in topical work: assigned topics worked up from authorities can be illustrated by documents selected from the book; e.g., imperial elections, papal elections, the Normans in Sicily, history of the Austrian dominions, Germans and Slavs on the eastern frontier, relations of the emperors and the popes before the investiture strife, etc.
"Of the four principal works of Allan Kardec, the first The Spirits' Book, sets forth the Spiritist theory of life and destiny; the second The Mediums' Book, treats of experimental Spiritism, in other words, of Medianimity,1 under its various aspects and in reference to the conclusions to which it leads; the third (Heavenand Hell, which the translator has now the pleasure of offering to English readers,) gives a series of spirit-narratives confirmatory of the Spiritist theory; the fourth (Genesis, of which a translation will soon follow the present volume,) shows the consonance of this theory with the results of modern science."...
