The Temptation of St. Anthony by Gustave Flaubert Pdf

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. 1910 edition. Excerpt: ... cross, surely, is too far from me. Ah! what a night! what a terrible night!" (The mist is parted by a gust of wind; and Anthony sees two men covered with long white tunics. The first is of lofty stature, with a gentle face, and a grave mien. His blond hair, parted like that of Christ, falls upon his shoulders. He has cast aside a wand that he had been holding in his hand; his companion takes it up, making a reverence after the fashion of the Orientals. The latter is small of stature, thick set, flatnosed; his neck and shoulders expresses good natured simplicity. Both are barefooted, bareheaded, and dusty, like persons who have made a long journey.) Anthony (starting up: --) "What do ye seek? Speak!... Begone from here!" Damis (who is a little man). "Nay! nay! be not angered, good hermit. As for that I seek, I know not myself what it is! Here is the Master!" (He sits down. The other stranger remains standing. Silence.) Anthony (asks). "Then ye come?..." Damis. "Oh! from afar off--very far off!" Anthony. "And ye go?..." Damis (pointing to the other) "Whithersoever he shall desire!" Anthony. "But who may he be?" Damis. ' Look well upon him!' Anthony (aside). "He looks like a saint! If I could only dare..." (The mist is all gone. The night is very clear. The moon shines.) Damis. ' Of what art thou dreaming, that thou dost not speak?" Anthony. "I was thinking... Oh I nothing!" Damis (approaches Apollonius, and walks all round him several times, bending himself as he walks, never raising his head: --) "Master, here is a Galilean hermit who desires to know the beginnings of wisdom." Apollonius. 'Let him approach!' (Anthony hesitates.) Damis. ' Approach!' Apollonius (in a voice of thunder: --) "Approach! Thou wouldst know who I am, what I have...

Saint Antony in His Desert by Anthony Uhlmann Pdf

An ambitious novel of ideas set against a phantasmagoric Sydney. ~J. M. Coetzee A defrocked priest, Antony Elm, has made his way into a desert outside Alice Springs, where he intends to stay for forty days and forty nights. He is undergoing a crisis of faith and has brought with him the typescript for a book he has failed to finish about a meeting between Albert Einstein and the French philosopher Henri Bergson. This story concerns a crisis of understanding, as Bergson confronts Einstein about the meaning of time. On the back of his typescript Antony writes another story, somehow close to his heart, which concerns two young men traveling to Sydney from Canberra for the first time in the early 1980s. This story about a crisis of love takes place in a single night as the boys encounter temptation, damnation, and salvation in the world of alternative music. Antony becomes increasingly delirious, observing temptations of the flesh and spirit, scribbling in the margins of his two unspooling narratives, awaiting a rescue that may or may not come.

Life of St. Anthony of Egypt by St Athanasius of Alexandria,Philip Schaff Pdf

The biographic text of St. Anthony is presented complete in this edition for the reader's absorption and contemplation. First published in the 4th century A.D., Anthony the Great's biography was authored by Christian Saint Athanasius of Alexandria. Since its release, the book has helped spread the beliefs, practices and arduous faith of Anthony the Great. A significant progenitor of the monastic tradition, Saint Anthony lived an ascetic lifestyle in the arid lands of Egypt. Although not the earliest of religious figures committed to this tradition, through actions and preaching Anthony helped popularise and spread principles that would contribute heavily to the establishment of Christian monasteries in Europe and beyond. One event in St. Anthony's life was his encounter with the supernatural in the remote Egyptian desert. This occurrence, where the otherworldly presence tried to tempt him from his spartan philosophy of living, is much recreated in Western art and literature.
