There were shadows in this alley that no light touched, and where there was no light, anything could hide. At the end of the fourteenth century, angelic reapers struggle to defend London against a legion of the demonic who have their sights set on claiming human souls and ancient relics for a dark purpose. Madeleine, a young but powerful warrior, is duty-bound to fight the demonic, and she lives for this pursuit above all else. Then, on a routine night of tracking, she is ambushed by a cadre of reapers and, though she defeats them all, she is left wounded and at the mercy of their lord, the notorious Bastian. Madeleine is astonished when Bastian lets her live. She goes deeper into the world of the demonic and is shocked to meet him again—this powerful reaper whose touch makes her restless and gives her a thrill unlike anything else. When they fall into a dangerous clandestine affair, her head and her heart must wage their war: can their love overcome his demonic nature?

Download or read book The Dance of Darkness written by Muhammad Shanazar and published by Shanazar Publishers. This book was released on 2015-02-07 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Description of ‘The Dance Of Darkness’ ‘The Dance Of Darkness’ has been authored by Muhammad Shanazar, an internationally recognized poet, who has got several awards and recognition. A poet writes but it is the critic who explores the world created by him. ‘The Dance Of Darkness’ is a poem which has been suggested for the title and in the title poem images of horror and devastation have been recreated and depicted, the people of Hiroshima and Nagasaki went through during the use of nuclear bombs, in August 1945. The poem ‘The Dance Of Darkness’ concludes with the lines: ‘Who are these who move like ghosts, Charred bony figures with hanging shreds, Lamenting upon the horrible deed And despised nature sighs and sobs That who knows when time takes turn, Who knows moments of calm and peace, Might contain the centuries of sorrows.’ ‘The Dance Of Darkness’ in general consists of majority of the poems which refer to cupidity, recklessness, injustice, callousness of international organizations, terrorism and horrors of war, in fact these all collectively cast Darkness and it dances around the world. The book is not merely a book of poetry but it contains cries of the poet who admonishes the leading heads humanity about the unheeded perils which humanity may confront with the total annihilation of human existence on the planet. The poems from serial No. 69 to 133 deal with the theme of peace and war, rather they are poems against war, they preach for the world free of violence, weapons and wars. In ‘The Dance Of Darkness’ some poems pertain to nostalgia, in these poems the poet expressed mixed sentiments and memories sweet and sour through which he lived in. Poem from serial No. 07 to 29 are nostalgic ones. The most striking feature of ‘The Dance Of Darkness, is the expression of some mind baffling spiritual experiences that the poet underwent. There had been time in his life when he went through very mystical experiences and he kept them concealed lest he should be branded lunatic, in these poems he share the same experiences with intellectuals of the world. The readers may find apt substance regarding human soul, body and mind and their relationship with the cosmos. What often happened to him, while he was lying on the bed, he felt something departing from his physical existence, then that began to fly with the incredible speed with all senses and went higher and higher farther than the distances of many light years, whatever he saw, he expressed in some of his poems without exaggeration. (See poems from the Suspended Mountain to Omnipresence Of Breeze). ‘The Dance Of Darkness’ also contains poems on patriotism, love, social and political issues and these poems have awesome endings. Critical study of these poems imparts the students of literature maturity and a sense of amplification to their minds; it has a vast diction and crystal clear imagery replete with similes metaphors. Thorough study of the book certainly improves the reader’s taste, intellect, and understanding of poetry as well.

Download or read book Artificial Darkness written by Noam M. Elcott and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-05-30 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ambitious study explores how important darkness--artificial darkness--was, as an actual technology, in producing not just photographs but visual novelties and experiments in cinema in the nineteenth century. The study plays out against a backdrop of urban history, where most scholars have focused on the growth of artificial light and the electrification of cities. Elcott’s study challenges that approach. In considering zones of darkness, it ranges from the sites of production (darkrooms, studios) to those of reception (theaters/cinemas/arcades) that shaped modern media and perceptions. He argues that, in the nineteenth century, the avant-garde was often less interested in the filmed image than in everything surrounding it: the screen, the projected light, the darkness, the experience of disembodiment. He argues that darkness has a history separate from night, evil, or the color black, and has a specifically modern manifestation as a media technology. We are all aware of the "velvet light trap” in photography, but at the heart of this book are technologies of darkness crucial to cinema that were commonly known as "the black screen,” but have, over time, faded from the storied discourse.

Book Opening to Darkness

Download or read book Opening to Darkness written by Zenju Earthlyn Manuel and published by Sounds True. This book was released on 2023-03-21 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “In darkness, we become devoted to clarity, courage, peace, and harmony. We discover the basic goodness of all humanity when we experience darkness together,” Zenju Earthlyn Manuel writes. “Life itself is a dark experience—a magical experience.” When you hear the word “darkness,” what does it make you feel—horror, danger, or maybe despair? We’ve been conditioned to fear and avoid darkness and blackness, yet Zenju Earthlyn Manuel challenges us to consider: “What if we chose to go deeper into darkness instead of running from it? What might we find there beyond our longing for light?” Drawing on the ancient wisdom found in Zen Buddhism and African and Native American indigenous traditions, Osho Zenju reveals how a change in perspective and increased wisdom can help us awaken to the sacredness of dark experiences in our lives—so we may experience a reality beyond avoidance and fear. Opening to Darkness will take you on a courageous journey into the mandala of darkness, a symbolic expression of your inner world, where you will travel through eight gateways that are inspired by Buddha’s Eightfold Path. Along your way, you will meet dark mothers from India, Nigeria, Japan, Haiti, and Dahomey, who both protect and destroy. Osho Zenju provides reflective inquiry, blessings, and meditations as you navigate your way through the vast depths of the unseen. It is through this spiritual pilgrimage that we learn how to: • Experience the wonders of life that can flourish only in the dark • Discover a collective doorway to healing and deep transformation • Awaken to the illusory nature of light versus dark • Illuminate false perceptions and beliefs of darkness • Heal the fear and anxiety around darkness and blackness Wrapped in gorgeous lyrical prose, Osho Zenju’s offerings provide deep soul relief and collective strength to embrace the dark—so we may reunite with the sacred process of darkness that flows through the canvas of our lives.
