Writing the Wind: A Celtic Resurgence

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Crowe, Thomas R. / Hubbard, Tom / Denez, Gwendal, PUBLISHER: New Native Press, A comprehensive look in English at poets from Wales, Brittany, Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall and the Isle of Man. Along with poets who are legendary and household names in their native countries, such as Sorley MacLean, Bobi Jones and Anjela Duval, are more than fifty of the new young voices of modern Celtic literature. In tone, these voices of The New Celtic Poetry are equally as sensitive as they are subversive. In this they mirror the struggle and resiliency of a century of language activist-writers who have defied the attempts at cultural genocide by the English and the French -- and have continued to write and speak their languages. The result of that staying power is evidenced in a ground swell of literary activity during the last half of the twentieth century in all six Celtic countries represented in this book.

French Philosophy in the Twentieth Century

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gutting, Gary, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, In this book Gary Gutting tells, clearly and comprehensively, the story of French philosophy from to .

Taking account of this background, together with the influences of avant-garde literature and German philosophy, he develops a rich account of existential phenomenology, which he argues is the central achievement of French thought during the century, and of subsequent structuralist and poststructuralist developments. Gary Gutting is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame and a leading authority on the work of Michel Foucault. In addition to continental philosophy, he has done important work in philosophy of science and philosophy of religion.

The End of Days: Armageddon and Prophecies of the Return

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Sitchin, Zecharia, PUBLISHER: Harper, Why is it that our current twenty-first century A.D. is so similar to the twenty-first century B.C.? Is history destined to repeat itself? Will biblical prophecies come true, and if so, when? It has been more than three decades since Zecharia Sitchin's trailblazing book "The 12th Planet" brought to life the Sumerian civilization and its record of the Anunnaki--the extraterrestrials who fashioned man and gave mankind civilization and religion. In this new volume, Sitchin shows that the End is anchored in the events of the Beginning, and once you learn of this Beginning, it is possible to foretell the Future. In "The End of Days," a masterwork that required thirty years of additional research, Sitchin presents compelling new evidence that the Past is the Future--that mankind and its planet Earth are subject to a predetermined cyclical Celestial Time. In an age when religious fanaticism and a clash of civilizations raise the specter of a nuclear Armageddon, Zecharia Sitchin shatters perceptions and uses history to reveal what is to come at "The End of Days."
