Astrology Alive: A Guide to Experiential Astrology and the

Astrology Alive: A Guide to Experiential Astrology and the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Schermer, Barbara, PUBLISHER: Crossing Press, We usually associate serious astrology with maps and angles and arcane terminology. Barbara Schermer gives us dance, music, art, and drama...exercises, rituals, meditations, and games. Astrology Alive is an entertaining book, valuable for the seasoned astrologer as well as the novice. It breathes life into the signs and planets by teaching us playful ways to experience their archetypal power. But it's fun with a purpose, helping us to better understand and meet the challenges posed by our own horoscopes. In her work, Schermer acknowledges the debt that experiential astrology owes to the psychology of Cad Jung and the humanistic astrology of Dane Rudhyar. She also makes the case for its ancient connection to Florentine renaissance man Marsilio Ficino, who synthesized philosophy, theology, magic, medicine, music, art, and astrology in his own "proto-psychology."

Elizabeth Healy's Literary Tour of Ireland: See Ireland

Elizabeth Healy's Literary Tour of Ireland: See Ireland

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Healy, Elizabeth, PUBLISHER: Wolfhound Press (IE), The age-old Irish preoccupation with place gave rise to a whole genre of Gaelic literature devoted exclusively to place-lore. That sense has permeated Irish and Anglo-Irish literature down to the present day. Intended as a practical guide to places with which poets and novelists have been associated, and some which have given rise to legends, this lovingly written and informative book will convey to the reader a sense of enchantment that comes from a knowledge of Ireland's richly textured land and literature. Enroute, readers will encounter, perhaps rediscover, some of the world's greatest literary personalities and be rewarded by the discovery of lesser-known treasures. Extracts from poems and novels accompany the text, as well as maps, illustrations, and gorgeous color photographs, plus an extensive reading list.

Battle of the Lys : Givenchy and the River Lawe

Battle of the Lys : Givenchy and the River Lawe

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Tomaseli, Phil, PUBLISHER: Pen & Sword Military, The battles fought at Estaires and Givenchy, just south of Ypres, in April were critical episodes in the larger Battle of Lys which determined the outcome of the ultimate German offensive on the Western Front. The massive assault of Ludendorff's armies crashed against defences manned by the British and Portuguese. A series of intense attacks and counter-attacks followed, and the Germans were on verge of gaining the decisive breakthrough that both sides on the Western Front had struggled for since the onset of trench warfare in late . A German success might well have forced the British to retreat from Ypres. Phil Tomaselli's vivid account reconstructs events in the typical Battleground style. He describes the course of the fighting in close detail, using eyewitness accounts, official records, photographs and maps, and he provides walking and driving tours of the battlefield and of the monuments and cemeteries associated with it.

Through it all Philip paints a vivid portrait, filled with fascinating detail and extraordinary characters, of a proud, independent community with a sense of place like no other.

Sacred Realm: The Emergence of the Synagogue in the Ancient

Sacred Realm: The Emergence of the Synagogue in the Ancient

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fine, Steven, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, The rich tradition and profound spirituality of Judaism has touched people the world over for thousands of years. With the arrival in the Near East of Alexander the Great and the destruction of the Temple in 70 CE, the synagogue came to represent a new era of this powerful religion, one which witnessed a greater emphasis on shared religious experience and prayer. In turn, the synagogue, derived from the Greek, meaning an "assembly," has come to mean the Jewish house of worship, evolving into a "sacred realm," in which the Torah came to play a central role linking the biblical past with the messianic future. Of course, the synagogue has been much more that a house of worship--it served the Jewish people as a place of learning, a community center, and often as the official seat of Jewish self-government. Indeed, it is the institution most closely associated with the development of post-biblical Judaism throughout the ages. Sacred Realm: The Emergence of the Synagogue in the Ancient World offers the first comprehensive history of the architectural and archaeological development of the synagogue from the third century BCE to 700 CE. Telling the story of over one hundred ancient synagogues throughout the world and their place in the history of Judaism and of Western civilization, this book provides a fascinating representation of the cultural, intellectual, and artistic achievements of three thousand years of Jewish experience. Informative essays detail every aspect of the ancient synagogue, while beautiful illustrations and maps take the reader to the actual historic site. Sacred Realm is an accompaniment to a monumental exhibition organized by the Yeshiva University Museum in New York. Borrowing from museums in North America, Europe, and Israel, the exhibition presents a unique collection of artifacts and manuscripts--including many pieces never before displayed in the United States--and will depict for the first time an in-depth history of the synagogue during the Greco-Roman period. From fourth-century Egyptian incense burners and inscribed bowl fragments to fifth-century Gaza mosaics decorated with Menorah and Shofar, Piyyut (liturgical poetry) manuscripts, and assorted textile, column, and pottery fragments, this collection is the most significant presentation of ancient Jewish religious life ever assembled in the United States. Lavishly illustrated with both color and black and white photographs of the artifacts, manuscripts, maps, site diagrams, and reconstructions, Sacred Realm is not only a detailed record of this historic exhibit, but a guide to the evolution of Judaism's most sacred institution.

Elegies in Blue: Poems

Elegies in Blue: Poems

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Saenz, Benjamin Alire, PUBLISHER: Cinco Puntos Press, Benjamin Saenz writes, "In the desert, we live in a desert of translation." That is exactly what he sets out to do, in this, his third book of poems--translate experience into words. He writes of history and learning and death. He writes of loss and knowledge and the difficulties of coming to terms with the harsh and untamable landscape of the border. Ultimately, his elegies are "stones that praise the lives" of those who have given him words. In the tradition of Latin American literature, Saenz believes that poetry should be part of the public discourse and not shunted aside as irrelevant to our country's larger issues. Here he maps out personal, political and spiritual histories. He speaks about political and literary heroes, anti-heroes and everyday people, and he remembers his growing up Chicano in the Catholic world of the U.S./Mexico Border. From these elements, he creates a philosophy of speaking publicly as poet.
