The Secret History of the World

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Booth, Mark, PUBLISHER: Overlook Press, The amazing surprise "New York Times" bestseller, filled with "breathtaking glimpses into worlds that heretofore have been little explored" ("Foreward") They say that history is written by the victors. But what if history-or what we come to know as history-has been written by the wrong people? What if everything we've been told is only part of the story? In this groundbreaking and now famous work, Mark Booth embarks on an enthralling tour of our world's secret histories. Starting from a dangerous premise-that everything we've known about our world's past is corrupted, and that the stories put forward by the various cults and mystery schools throughout history are true-Booth produces nothing short of an alternate history of the past years. From Greek and Egyptian mythology to Jewish folklore, from Christian cults to Freemasons, from Charlemagne to Don Quixote, from George Washington to Hitler- Booth shows that history needs a revolutionary rethink, and he has years of hidden wisdom to back it up.

Finding God's Fingerprints in Our Daily Lives: A Daily

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Heffern, Jean Howell Kopp, PUBLISHER: Authorhouse, Too often we separate our spiritual life from the rest of our life. Given our crazy, hectic, tightly scheduled daily lives, it's easy to remain fragmented instead of drawing together all the pieces that give our lives meaning. We need to take time to look at the very ordinary parts of our day, hold them up to the light of the scripture, and see that God is always there, intimately present, active, and drawing us into a deeper relationship. God is always touching our lives, using our trials, hard times, and day-to-day struggles as well as our joys and triumphs. He is always waiting for us to recognize the potential treasures we already possess. But unless we look for His fingerprints we sometimes miss His touch on our lives and cannot see the blessings He intends for us to discover. "Finding God's Fingerprints in Our Daily Lives" is a daily devotional that looks at events, places, and objects common in life and searches out God's fingerprints within them. It portrays the author's living relationship with God in her daily living that encourages and challenges the reader to search for that same relationship within his or her own life.

The Last Days of Judas Iscariot

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Guirgis, Stephen Adly, PUBLISHER: Dramatists Play Service, From one of our most admired playwrights, "an ambitious, complicated and often laugh-out-loud religious debate" (Toby Zinman, The Philadelphia Inquirer) Set in a time-bending, seriocomically imagined world between Heaven and Hell, "The Last Days of Judas Iscariot" is a philosophical meditation on the conflict between divine mercy and human free will that takes a close look at the eternal damnation of the Bible's most notorious sinner. This latest work from the author of Our Lady of 121st Street "shares many of the traits that have made Mr. Guirgis a playwright to reckon with in recent years: a fierce and questing mind that refuses to settle for glib answers, a gift for identifying with life's losers and an unforced eloquence that finds the poetry in lowdown street talk. Guirgis brings to the play] a stirring sense of Christian existential pain, which wonders at the paradoxes of faith" (Ben Brantley, "The New York Times").

The Pursuit of Unhappiness: The Elusive Psychology of

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Haybron, Daniel M., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, The pursuit of happiness is a defining theme of the modern era. But what if people aren't very good at it? That is the question posed by this book, the first comprehensive philosophical treatment of happiness, understood here as a psychological phenomenon. Engaging heavily with the scientific literature, Dan Haybron argues that people probably know less about their own welfare, and may be less effective at securing it, than common belief has it. This is largely because human nature is surprisingly ill-suited to the pursuit of happiness. For the happiness that counts for well-being is not a matter of what we think about our lives, but of the quality of our emotional conditions. Yet our emotional lives are remarkably difficult to grasp. Moreover, we make a variety of systematic errors in the pursuit of happiness. These considerations suggest that we should rethink traditional assumptions about the good life and the good society. For instance, the pursuit of happiness may be primarily a matter of social context rather than personal choice. This book offers an extensive guide to philosophical thinking about happiness and well-being, correcting serious misconceptions that have beset the literature. It will be a definitive resource for philosophers, social scientists, policymakers, and other students of well-being.

History/Writing

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cook, Albert Spaulding, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, History writing is a form of literature that claims a unique correspondence to the processes of the real world. In this ambitious study, Albert Cook examines the literary d imensions of historiacal writing. He examines two seemingly contradictory constraints on historiography: the truth-claims of texts and the rhetoric of historical discourse. He shows how these constraints combine to enable, rather than prevent, the presentation of meaning in temporal sequences of events. Cook's scope encompasses the historigraphical aspects of the Hebrew Bible and the Gospels, Homer, Thucydides, Tacitus, Gregory of Tours, Einhards, the Anglo-Saxon chronicles, Machiavelli Guicciardini, Gibbon, Ezra Pound, Foucault, Heidegger and Bradel. In the first half of his work he focuses on the practice of individual historians; in the second on particular philosophical or organizational techniques, in scriptural historians philosophical historians, or the self-critical historians of our own time. Though his concerns are systematic his analysis bears upon development questions in the practice of historiography over the past twenty-five hundred years. Thus, the book is not a history of historiography but a historicized perspective of its manifestations in different cultures. Its ambitious scope extends to questions of literary theory and criticism, literary history, rhetoric, semiology and narratology.

A House Unlocked

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lively, Penelope, PUBLISHER: Grove/Atlantic, Whitbread Award- and Booker Prize-winning Penelope Lively is one of England's greatest living writers, whom The New York Times Book Review has called "blessed... able to render matters of great import with a breath, a barely audible sigh, a touch." In A House Unlocked, Lively bridges personal and social history in telling the story of Golsoncott, the country house in Somerset, England, that her grandparents bought in . As her narrative moves from room to room, from object to object, she paints a moving portrait of an era of rapid change -- and of the family that changed with the times. As she charts the course of the domestic tensions of class and community among her relatives, she brings to life the effects of the horrors of the Russian Revolution and the Holocaust, through portraits of the refugees who came to live with them. A fascinating, intimate social history, A House Unlocked is an eloquent meditation on place and time, memory and history, and above all a tribute to the meaning of home. "An inspiration.... This book helps define one of our leading novelists." -- Brian Martin, The Financial Times
